Colorado Avalanche vs. Winnipeg Jets Betting Prediction
The two teams are very similar in terms of their abilities on the ice, but Colorado has been doing a little better. The difference will be in the net for this game, and Georgiev is playing a smidge better than Hellebuyck has been in the early portion of the regular season. The main difference has been on the defensive side of the ice as of late as Colorado has given up 1.8 goals in their previous five games while Winnipeg has allowed 3.8 goals in their last four games. The Avalanche are 7-3 in their previous 10 games against one another. Go with Colorado to win on the road.
