The Jets are one of the best teams in the NHL and are on a lengthy winning streak. Hellebuyck should be able to limit Ottawa's offense here.

Both goalies have been solid, as this should be a low-scoring game, but in the end, Winnipeg has the better offense and better goalie, which will be the difference here.
