Jets vs Senators Key Stats
The Jets did well on offense this season by scoring close to 150 goals. The contributions from different players have propelled the team's scoring, with Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor putting in a combined 49 goals. Their offense is in good shape.
The Jets' defense is a big positive as they have conceded less than 2.7 goals per game this season, thus helping them win games. Their goaltenders have been consistent too.
The Sens have not been great and that has hampered their overall position in the league. Tim Stutzle has been the leading goal scorer for them with 19 goals and 23 assists, and will have a big role to play in the upcoming games.
Their defense has conceded goals at a rate of 3.23 goals per game on average, which puts them in a precarious position.
Jets vs Senators Betting Prediction
The Jets overall look more settled coming to the game and have a 5-1 record against the Sens.
On the other hand, the Sens have done well in the last few games, except their defense, which has been under a lot of stress.
With their offense not performing as per expectations, the Sens are likely to find it tough in this game.
The Jets will most likely pull this one in their favor.
Prediction: Jets, ML(-135)
