On Sunday, the Winnipeg Jets head to Columbus, Ohio to take on the Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena. In the last meeting between these two on January 31st,, Winnipeg grabbed a home win 4-3.
Winnipeg Jets
Sitting atop the Central Division, the Winnipeg Jets have played great hockey pretty much all season. However, the team has had a tough stretch of games recently, losing five of its last seven, including an awful 7-1 loss against the Avalanche back on February 20th.

However, last time out, Winnipeg bounced back from some bad losses, beating the Nashville Predators 5-3.
Much of the team’s success has come from its offense. Ranked 7th in the league in goals, the Jets average 3.39 per game. Center Mark Scheifele leads the team with 32 goals, and ranks second in total points (72).
But it’s been Blake Wheeler who has been such a powerhouse offensively. While he only has 13 goals, he’s tallied 63 assists through 64 games. He has a goal and seven assists in his last five games.
Columbus Blue Jackets
Despite having 75 points through 63 games, the Blue Jackets sit 4th in the tough Metropolitan Division. Every one of the team’s final 19 games could have huge implications on the team’s hunt for the playoffs.

4-4 in the last eight games, Columbus hasn’t found much consistently recently. The team has two shutouts in those four wins, but has been outscored 16-5 in the four losses. To beat the Jets, there has to be three periods of solid offense.
That offense starts with winger Artemi Panarin. He leads the team with 71 points in 60 games, including 25 goals and 46 assists. He and Cam Atkinson (35 goals, 24 assists) have to get their scoring chances, otherwise it’ll be tough for Columbus to pull out a win.

At home, Columbus definitely has the advantage. Winnipeg isn’t playing great hockey right now, despite sitting atop its division. The Blue Jackets get a good win in this one.

At -130, you get decent value here. Columbus hasn’t been perfect in its last eight games, but the team’s certainly had a better stretch than Winnipeg. I’ll take Columbus at home in this one.
