Chicago Blackhawks at Winnipeg Jets Preview & Picks

Winnipeg are tipped to cover as they make straightforward work of Chicago.

The Jets are on a red-hot run of form and are likely to power past a Blackhawks team without star man Connor Bedard.

  • Winnipeg Jets are on a 7-game win streak
  • 11 of Winnipeg's last 13 wins have been by at least 2 goals
  • Winnipeg have won 7 of the last 9 meetings by at least 2 goals
  • The Under has cashed in 5 of the last 6 meetings

Head To Head

  • The regular season series is tied 1-1
  • Chicago Blackhawks won 2-1 in overtime when the two teams last met on December 27

Chicago Blackhawks Form

Chicago head to Winnipeg in miserable form, having lost eight of their last 10 games and star rookie Connor Bedard.

The Blackhawks beat the Jets in overtime back on late December, with Bedard scoring the OT winner, but they have won just once since then.

They went out on the road after that victory and lost back-to-back games in Dallas, losing 5-4 in overtime and 8-1 to the Stars.

Chicago then suffered a 3-0 defeat in Nashville, before heading to the ‘Big Apple’ to lose 4-1 to the New York Rangers.

The Blackhawks’ losing skid hit five games with a 4-2 defeat at New Jersey, and although they stopped the rot with a 4-3 win over Calgary, they quickly returned to losing ways with a 2-1 defeat to Edmonton.

Winnipeg Jets Form

Winnipeg come into this game having responded to an overtime loss in Chicago with a seven-game win streak.

The Jets dominated the Blackhawks but came up against a stubborn goalie as they were beaten at the United Center.

They rebounded quickly though, sparking this streak with back-to-back wins against Minnesota, beating the Wild 4-2 and 3-2.

Winnipeg then downed Tampa Bay 4-2, before heading out on the road to win 2-1 in San Jose, 3-1 at Anaheim and 6-2 in Arizona.

The Jets’ win streak hit seven games on Tuesday night as they returned home to shut out Columbus in a 5-0 win.

Verdict

Winnipeg are the better team in better form, and we expect them to make straightforward work of injury-hit Chicago.
