New Jersey shut out Toronto 4-0 on Sunday behind two Timo Meier goals, and the Devils are 9-1 over their last 10 games. Winnipeg is 7-8-3 with 49 goals in 18 games, 2.7 a game, and it has scored two or fewer in eight of them. Kyle Connor has 13 of those 49 goals, and Mark Scheifele has 12 assists, so I see Winnipeg's offense running through those two. Connor has needed 74 shots to get there, and the Jets as a team manage 27.7 shots a game. Winnipeg's power play has converted 18.0% of its chances, nine goals in all. The Jets allow 3.5 goals a game, and the Devils allow 3.0, while New Jersey scores 3.6 a game, sixth in the NHL. The Devils announced that Connor Hellebuyck will not face the Jets. These clubs have not met this season. Winnipeg is 3-6-1 over its last 10 games, and against a Devils defense that gives up 24.9 shots a game, the UNDER is the bet tonight.
