Los Angeles -½ +250 over WINNIPEG

7:08 PM EST. Regulation only. Perhaps we’re missing something, but how can the Kings, one of the hottest young teams in this league—be taking back a price like this against the Jets? Winnipeg is fine enough—we guess—but this is not a team we’d be eager to lay significant lumber with.

The Kings are a top 10 puck possession team; the Jets are not. In addition, the Kings rank eight spots higher than the Jets in High Danger Scoring Chances (13-to-21). Finally, when it comes to “puck luck” or PDO, the Jets are the eighth-most fortunate team in the league while the Kings are just 19th.

We understand the Jets have welcomed Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler back since the first meeting between these two teams—a 3-2 Jets win that flattered the invading Jets. L.A. was just a modest -105 favorite at home that night—compare that to the price the Jets are being asked to spot here—it doesn’t add up. Riding the hot hand here until they lose.
