Winnipeg are in fine form at present, winning five of their last seven fixtures, including a 7-3 triumph over Vegas just a week ago.
That was one of six straight away defeats for the Golden Knights, who are struggling to live up to their lofty pre-season rating.
All the evidence points to 2.15 for the Jets to prevail in regular time being a solid selection for our Winnipeg Jets vs Vegas Golden Knights predictions.

Winnipeg still have plenty of work to do if they are to climb up into a wild card berth but Sunday’s 6-4 success at Chicago was another sterling effort.
Jansen Harkins scored twice and Kyle Connor had a goal and three assists during an action-packed clash.
General manager Kevin Cheveldayoff made a big push to bring in fresh reinforcements ahead of the NHL trade deadline.
Mason Appleton returns from Seattle, Zach Sanford joins from Ottawa and prospect Morgan Barron comes in from New York Rangers.
Andrew Copp, who had three assists against the Blackhawks, was the most notable departure, but Cheveldayoff was happy with the balance struck.
“Our roster is different but the core is still the core and I certainly believe in those guys,” he commented.
“We tried several times throughout the course of the year to acquire Mason. He’s excited to get back here and to get back into a spot that he knows he flourished in.”
Looking at the NHL odds, this should be closer than last week’s encounter, but we’re backing the Jets to sneak through by one goal after 60 minutes at 7.75.
Vegas were among the ante-post favourites to go all the way this term and are still only 15.0 in the outright Stanley Cup betting.
However, they have been plagued by inconsistency all season and are currently suffering from travel sickness.
After losing in Winnipeg last week, the Golden Knights returned home to record a couple of cracking wins over Florida and Los Angeles.
There was more misery on the road with last night’s 3-0 drubbing at Minnesota, though.
Losing forward Michael Amadio and defenseman Zach Whitecloud to Covid protocols was a double blow and coach Peter DeBoer praised the spirit shown.
“Tough day on our group,” he declared. “We had guys arriving literally 15 minutes before warm-ups that flew from Henderson to help us here, so it wasn’t an easy day.
“There’s not a lot of moral victories this time of year because you need the points, but I was proud of our effort – we battled hard for 60 minutes.”
However, the Golden Knights remain vulnerable on their travels and 11.0 for Winnipeg to win 3-2 completes our NHL predictions.
