Stars vs Jets Predictions and Picks
Dallas is ranked third in scoring, sixth in goals against, and fourth in penalty kill. That strong defensive ranking showed in Game 1, with two shutout periods and a perfect performance on the penalty kill. Matt Duchene leads the team in assists and points. In Game 1, he recorded an assist, one shot on net, and a negative plus/minus. Four of the Stars' five playoff wins have come when the defense allowed two goals or fewer.
Winnipeg is ranked fourth in scoring, first in goals against, and first on the power play. In Game 1, the offense underperformed, the defense held up reasonably well, but the power play failed to convert. Kyle Connor leads the team in goals, assists, and points. He had three shots on net and two hits in Game 1. Throughout this playoff run, the Jets' wins have come from strong first periods and consistent scoring. Even when trailing, Winnipeg has often finished games strong in the third period. However, in Game 1, the power play came up short despite multiple opportunities. The Jets will aim to score early in Game 2 and improve their special teams performance.
The Jets were perfect on home ice in their last series, but they've already lost that advantage in this one. Winnipeg has the best power play in the league, and they'll need to find a way to break through against the Stars' top-five penalty kill. If the Jets' offense can get going and the Stars' defense falters, Winnipeg has a chance to build a lead and even the series.
