The Anaheim Ducks conclude their brief Central Division stint in Winnipeg as they take on the Jets for a Monday night tilt.
Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks were dealt a blow on Saturday when goaltender John Gibson left early after suffering an upper-body injury against the Wild.
Gibson, who entered Saturday’s contest with a 7-1-1 record over his previous nine games, did not return in Anaheim’s 5-3 loss.
His status for this game is still uncertain, which could be huge for the Jets. If Gibson is unable to go, the Ducks will have to rely on either Jonathan Bernier or Jhonas Enroth, goalies who each possess save percentages under .900.

Anaheim has relied heavily on its defense this season, so it’s 19th-ranked offense will need to step up in Gibson’s absence.
That will be easier said than done as the Ducks are averaging just 2.25 games over their last eight games.
Jakob Silfverberg is still day-to-day with an upper-body injury, so it’s uncertain if the Ducks will have their fourth-leading scorer on the ice in this one either.
In the mean time, the two Ryans (Kesler and Getlzaf), will need to keep it going in his absence.
Winnipeg Jets
After losing four games in a row with goaltenders Connor Hellebuyck and Mark Hutchinson, the Jets have won their last two with Ondrej Pavelec between the pipes.
Pavelec made his season debut against the Coyotes on Wednesday and stopped 30 of 33 shots in a Winnipeg win. He followed that up with another win on Saturday after the Jets beat the Blues 5-3.
Winnipeg has been abysmal on defense this year as their 3.06 goals per game allowed ranks 25th in the NHL.
If Pavelec can continue to play well, the Jets will be in the postseason conversation going forward.

On offense, the Jets were dealt a serious blow when rookie phenom Patrik Laine suffered a concussion two weeks ago, but they’ve managed to score 11 goals in their previous two games without him.
Winnipeg still ranks 11th in the league in scoring with 2.82 goals per game, and expect that to continue if Gibson is unable to suit up for Anaheim.
NHL Betting Trends:
- Ducks are 4-6-1 vs. the Central Division.
- Ducks are 8-3 SU in their last 11 games.
- Jets are 5-7-1 vs. the Pacific Division.
- Jets O/U is 5-1 in their last 6 home games.
Free Anaheim Ducks vs. Winnipeg Jets NHL Hockey Prediction:
It’s still unclear if John Gibson will be ready to play in this game, and that’s why there is no line set at the moment. Either way, I still like playing OVER the total in this spot.
Winnipeg has an offense that can score goals at will, and they’ve scored 11 over their last two games.
They’ve played with a renowned sense of confidence since Ondrej Pavelec returned to the lineup, and they’ve helped him out with plenty of offense.
4* Free NHL Betting Pick: OVER the number
With the undetermined goalie factor in Anaheim, I’ll play the total.
