Winnipeg Jets:  9-0-1 last 10

The Flyers are entering this game with 48 points, a 21-14-6 record overall, and they are 11-6-4 in their road games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a win against the Montreal Canadiens in their last game, winning that one at home 3-2 in a shootout, but this is also the 2nd game of a back-to-back for them with their game against the Minnesota Wild still to be played on Friday night. In their game against the Canadiens, Morgan Frost and Owen Tippett each scored 1 goal for them in that game. Sean Couturier, Jamie Drysdale, Tyson Foerster, and Travis Konecny each led the team in assists with 1 while Owen Tippett led the team in shots on net in that game with 5. Samuel Ersson was the starting goalie in that game and he allowed 2 goals on 19 shots with 17 saves and a .895 save percentage. Their offense has scored 120 goals this season averaging 2.9 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 115 goals against them allowing 2.8 goals per game.

The Jets are entering this game with 60 points, a 28-9-4 record overall, and they are 15-5-2 in their home games this regular season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game off a win against the Chicago Blackhawks in their last game, winning that one at home 2-1. Nikolaj Ehlers and Gabriel Vilardi each scored 1 goal for them in that game. Adam Lowry led the team in assists with 2 while Nikolaj Ehlers led the team in shots on net in that game with 5.

Their offense has scored 139 goals this season averaging 3.4 goals per game and their defense has allowed their opponents to score 95 goals against them allowing 2.3 goals per game.

The current betting odds have the Jets listed as a favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Jets have looked really good in their games this season with their 28-9-4 record overall which is leading their division in the West and is one of the best records in the NHL right now. They have looked a lot better in their home games too with their 15-5-2 home record. Meanwhile, the Flyers have looked good in their games this season with their 21-14-6 record overall which has them climbing the standings in the East right now as they are 3rd in their division. They haven't looked as good in their road games though with their 11-6-4 road record and they are also in a bad spot for this game. They are playing this game in Winnipeg and will have to travel there Friday night after their game against the Wild since they are playing a back-to-back here. The Jets have also been really hot in their games lately and they have one of the best defenses in the NHL this season as they are one of the few teams to allow less than 100 goals up to this point in the year. The Jets have looked a lot better on home ice all season and they will be looking to take advantage of the Flyers in a bad spot here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Jets to win this game and on the puckline.

“I don’t think we’ve been playing fast enough, not direct enough. I liked the speed of our game.” - John Tortorella after his team’s win against the Canadiens in their game on Wednesday.

“It just felt like every shot, he was able to just pick it off. He was fantastic tonight. So was (Brossoit), obviously. When you keep shooting and you keep shooting and it’s not going in, there’s some frustration that kicks in at some point. But the key point, and what you saw tonight, is that at some point it’s going to go in.” - Nikolaj Ehlers after their win against the Blackhawks in their game on Thursday.
