Winnipeg has a winning record overall and on the road with great balance at sixth in the league in goals scored, second on the power play, and eighth in goals allowed. The Jets are on an 8-2-1 run, as well as 25-10 playing on one day of rest, plus 24-10 versus the Western Conference. Winnipeg goalie Connor Hellebuyck has been stellar and the team is 11-1-0 when he faces the Pacific Division this season. They face a San Jose squad that focuses on defense first, fifth in goals allowed, third in penalty killing, but the offense is #17 in goals scored. They will slow the pace down with starting goalie Martin Jones out with a lower-body injury. San Jose is 37-12-14 UNDER the total playing on one day of rest, plus 41-18-10 UNDER at home. The Sharks are also 3-7 after allowing two goals or less in their previous game, so back the balanced dog in a defensive duel. Play Winnipeg on the puckline and take the UNDER.
