Winnipeg Jets
Win Home
1.91
This Jets-Stars matchup presents a compelling value play despite the even odds. Winnipeg holds significant advantages that tilt the scale. First, their goaltending edge with Connor Hellebuyck is substantial. Hellebuyck consistently outperforms Dallas' tandem in high-danger save percentage (HDSV%) against elite offenses, particularly excelling on home ice where he boasted a .932 SV% against playoff teams last season. Dallas, while potent, relies heavily on perimeter shooting and can be contained by structured defenses like Winnipeg's top-5 unit in high-danger chances against.
Secondly, the Canada Life Centre factor matters. Winnipeg finished last season 24-9-4 at home, including a dominant win over Dallas. The Stars' road record against elite competition (15-18) pales in comparison. Dallas' power play is elite, but Winnipeg's penalty kill neutralized top-10 units effectively (87.4% success rate).
Finally, Winnipeg's forechecking depth can exploit Dallas' occasionally vulnerable third defensive pairing. The physical toll of Winnipeg's style often wears down opponents in the third period. While Dallas has star power in Robertson and Hintz, Winnipeg's collective structure, superior goaltending at even strength, and home dominance offer tangible edges justifying the 1.91 value.
