Vancouver is a weak road team (12-22-1), ranked #28 in goals scored and on the power play, #23 in goals allowed, and #25 in penalty killing. Vancouver had to play yesterday, pulling off the 4-2 upset at Minnesota, but the Canucks are 23-47 on the road. Winnipeg has a terrific young offense, #8 in the NHL in scoring behind rookie Patrik Laine, Mark Scheifele, and Nikolaj Ehlers. Winnipeg is 35-16 at home against a team with a road winning percentage of less than .400. The Jets have registered at least one power-play goal in six straight games while the Canucks are three of 24 with the man advantage over their last 11 contests. The home team is 9-3 in the last 12 meetings, as well. Play Winnipeg.
