History has been made in the current NHL season as Winnipeg Jets have converted into the team with the best start record (15-1-0), which they’ll definitely try to extend as much as possible. With that objective in mind, the Jets will visit Tampa Bay next Thursday night, a game in which they could be considered as the big favorites to win.
When looking closely at both teams’ performances, Tampa Bay Lightning is crossing through a very negative streak of 4 losses in a row that took them out of the playoffs’ spots in the Eastern Conference. In this matter, it’s mandatory to note that this team has fully depended on Nikita Kucherov during their last 5 games, as he scored 3 goals and gave 6 assists, so players like Brandon Hagel are expected to recover their offensive effectiveness.
Meanwhile, Winnipeg Jets is the first team in the entire league to reach the 30 points line after their solid victory over New York Rangers (3-6). Additionally, they still remark as the best offensive with 73 scored goals, being relevant to note that Kyle Connor scored twice during their most recent game, so he turned into the first player of this squad to overcome the 10 goals line this season.
