Vegas Golden Knights at Winnipeg Jets Preview & Picks

Vegas are tipped to win on the road in Winnipeg.

The Golden Knights arrive in good form and they have simply dominated the Jets over the past couple of years, including winning a bunch of games in Winnipeg.

  • Vegas Golden Knights are 7-2 in their last 9 games
  • Vegas Golden Knights are 8-0 in the last 8 meetings with Winnipeg
  • Vegas Golden Knights are 5-0 in their previous 5 visits to Winnipeg
  • The Over has cashed in 8 of the previous 10 meetings

Head To Head

  • Vegas Golden Knights lead the all-time series 18-8-2
  • Vegas Golden Knights won 4-3 when the two teams last met on November 29

Vegas Golden Knights Form

Vegas head to Canada on a solid run of form, having won seven of their last nine games and each of the previous three.

The Golden Knights began this sequence with a three-game win streak on the road, as they beat Ottawa 3-2, Montreal 6-2 and Philadelphia via a shootout.

They failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 2-1 in Colorado, but they did rebound immediately to beat Winnipeg 4-3 at home.

Vegas then lost 6-0 when they hosted Utah, but they have not tasted defeat since that night.

The Golden Knights got back to winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Edmonton, and then backed that up with a 4-1 win in Anaheim and a 3-2 home success against Dallas.

Winnipeg Jets Form

Winnipeg enter this matchup on the back of a blowout win over Boston, which was their third in their last four games.

The Jets have cooled off over the past few weeks and endured a season-worst losing skid between late November and early December.

They lost four consecutive games, starting with road defeats to Los Angeles, 4-1, Vegas, 4-3 and Dallas, 3-1.

Winnipeg then lost 4-1 at home to St Louis, before finally stopping the rot with back-to-back wins on the road, downing Buffalo 3-2 in overtime and Chicago 4-2 in regulation.

The Jets failed to make it three-in-a-row as they returned home to lose 4-1 to Columbus, but they did hit back immediately with the 8-1 demolition of Boston.

Verdict

Vegas have owned Winnipeg over the past couple of seasons and they are the team in better form.

That makes the Golden Knights a very appealing pick in the underdog role.
