The Winnipeg Jets have struck first in their 4-1 Game 1 win in Edmonton. The Jets were playing sloppy hockey late in the season, but they have turned things around as they have now won three straight games. Edmonton had things going, but they have now dropped two straight 4-1 decision. The Jets breakthrough win in the opener has to have them feeling pretty good for Game 2 tonight as it broke a six-game losing streak against Edmonton. The Jets have the momentum and confidence, while Edmonton seems to have lost something. I expect this one to be close either way. Take Winnipeg on the puckline.
