Thursday night in the NHL brings us an exciting Western Conference battle between the Winnipeg Jets and Dallas Stars. It will be must-watch action as the regular season reaches its conclusion.
These Central Division rivals are preparing for this great test before the playoffs, as they are both super strong teams. This game also includes a possible preview of a playoff matchup between the two.
Dallas continues an incredible season with a 10-1-0 record in their past 11 games, so they are red-hot and firing on all cylinders as they look to win the Presidents’ Trophy.
Winnipeg has played strong lately as well with a four-game winning streak, but will that be enough to win a tough road game?
Dallas has been on an absolute tear of late, and they are expected to keep it up. To begin, they are playing at home, where they have been unstoppable all season long.
All players are buying in, and they own a better roster than Winnipeg with greater depth and higher star-power.
This is a game that Dallas will be ready for, so they are expected to win the game to ensure they take Central Division honors as well as stay in the hunt for the Presidents' Trophy.
Kyle Connor has been one of Winnipeg’s go-to players for years now, and this has been even more evident during their strong season so far.
If the Jets see themselves down in this game, Connor is going to be put out there time and time again as Winnipeg’s best goalscorer, leading to tons of shots.
The Jets and Stars are both outstanding defensive teams. They both thrive with defensive structure, with elite defense groups and some of the top goaltenders in the entire NHL.
In a game that should be filled with grit and physicality, there is not likely to be a ton of goals scored.
