Tonight, Connor Hellebuyck and the Winnipeg Jets take on the Arizona Coyotes, although I don’t anticipate much action from Hellebuyck. The Coyotes have only averaged 24.91 shots on goal per game during their last ten games, which is the third-lowest total in the NHL.

The Jets have also been outstanding at restricting shots during the same span, ranking sixth in that category over their last 10 games while allowing an average of 28.08 shots on goal per contest.

In the hopes that the Jets defense will stop the Coyotes’ offense, I’ll take the UNDER on his total number of saves tonight.

Andrei Kuzmenko is set to play on the starting line for the Vancouver Canucks alongside Elias Pettersson. So, instead of taking the OVER 1.5 point total for Pettersson, why not take the OVER 0.5 points for his line mate?

The Golden Knights have been terrible defensively lately, which should set the Canucks up for success. Vegas is 31st in the NHL in expected goals against over each team’s last 10 games. Let’s wager on Kuzmenko recording at least one point tonight.
