Winnipeg has a massive advantage in net with Connor Hellebuyck, who has been the best goalie in the NHL this season. The Sharks have been playing better, but the Jets remain one of the top teams in the Western Conference. I'm going to hop on Winnipeg on the puck line in what I believe will be a 4-1 type of win for the Jets.
The good news for San Jose is that they've been off 13 days, which means they have not lost a game in almost two weeks. Off 13 days isn't really good news. The bad news is they've been without their 2nd best offensive player Logan Couture for most of the season but now their best player Tomas Hertl is now out. This is a big mismatch from team to goale. Connor Hellebuyck is one of the best in the business.
Arguably one of goaltending mismatches of the season Wednesday between San Jose's Kappo Kahkonen (6-14-0, 3.55 GAA) and Winnipeg's Connor Hellebuyck (24-10-3, 2.19 GAA), the Vezina favorite. The Sharks also are without two of their best offensive players, again, in Logan Couture and Tomas Hertl. The Jets are healthy.
