Winnipeg coach Rick Bowness knows how to beat the Golden Knights as he was coach of Dallas in 2020 when the Stars held Vegas to eight goals in five games in the Western Conference final. The Jets come into this series winning five of their past seven games and Connor Hellebuyck will have the experience edge as the Knights will go with former Jet, Laurent Brossiot, and he spent much of the season in the AHL regaining his form following hip surgery. Brossoit is 7-0-3 with a 2.17 goals-against average with the Golden Knights. Winnipeg had beaten Vegas five times in a row before losing the past three meetings. Vegas played the second-most one-goal games (42) and were tied with the league lead with 25 one-goal victories in 2022-23. Take the Jets on the puck line - Max Play.
