Winnipeg at Chicago

Winnipeg is 4-1-1 and has lost once in regulation, a 5-1 loss to Anaheim on October 9. Chicago is 2-5 and has allowed four or more goals in five of its seven games, 4.14 a game overall, the fifth-most in the league. Chicago’s four losses came by three goals or more, and it won 4-2 over St. Louis and 5-3 over Pittsburgh on Tuesday, when Connor Bedard made his season debut on the top line with Roman Kantserov and Patrick Kane. Jets' netminder Stuart Skinner (likely) is 3-0-1 in four starts with a .917 save percentage, and Spencer Knight (confirmed) has stopped 88.5% of the shots he has faced for Chicago in five starts. Winnipeg beat Minnesota 5-2 on Tuesday and has won four of its last five games. Chicago scores 2.43 goals per game, 27th in the league, with 17 scored and 29 allowed over seven games, for a -12 goal differential, while Winnipeg is +1. Bedard's return helped spark Chicago's offensive attack on Tuesday, but the Jets have thrived in this building, going 10-2-1 since 2018 and scoring 3.54 GPG. I'm backing Winnipeg on the moneyline tonight.
