This Monday is expected to be a very important NHL matchday for the Winnipeg Jets, a team that has clearly underperformed when comparing their current results with the general expectations imposed on them at the beginning of the regular season. Nevertheless, it’s well-known that in the NHL none of the streaks were made to last forever, so playing at home against the Edmonton Oilers could be a perfect chance for the Jets to recover.

Taking that possible scenario into account, it’s worth noting that the Winnipeg Jets have a five-game losing streak, during which they haven’t been able to score more than three goals per game. Despite that terrible offensive performance, the Jets were able to force overtime during their most recent game against the Minnesota Wild, so players like Mark Scheifele and Josh Morrissey are expected to keep pushing forward with dangerous opportunities.

Meanwhile, the Edmonton Oilers returned from Christmas with a deep offensive crisis, as they couldn’t score more than two goals during their 3-2 loss to the Calgary Flames. With this in mind, playing a second game in a row in Canadian territory is expected to be one of the most challenging scenarios that the Oilers could face in the regular season, especially after only being able to score two goals after shooting 31 times on target against the Flames.

Our Winnipeg Jets vs Edmonton Oilers Prediction

Considering all these factors, this game is expected to be one of the best Canadian confrontations in the regular season schedule, and even though the Edmonton Oilers were able to dominate their first game against the Winnipeg Jets this season (6-2), they aren’t expected to keep the pace when playing on the road.

To sum up, this game will be a perfect opportunity for the Winnipeg Jets to prevent them from being the only team with five or more consecutive losses in the Western Conference for one more matchday. Therefore, the pick for the Edmonton Oilers – Winnipeg Jets is: Total Goals in the 1st Period – Over 1.5!
