Jets vs Coyotes 01/04/22 – Exploring pre-game betting

On Jan. 4, the Winnipeg Jets defeated the Vegas Golden Knights in overtime by a score of 5-4. That was the first time the Jets won back-to-back games since Dec. 5.

Not a bad way for the Jets to start the 2022 calendar year.

On the betting front, I went 3-for-6 on the night. I’ll take a moment to celebrate that if you don’t mind. Let’s hope I can replicate that performance as Winnipeg searches for some revenge against the Arizona Coyotes.

Currently, the Jets are positioned fifth in the Central Division with a 15-11-5 record and 35 points. As a result, they sit just three points back of the Edmonton Oilers for the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference.

@Connor Hellebuyck will receive the start again after his spectacular performance against the Golden Knights, where he stopped 42 of 46 shots against. Overall, Hellebuyck owns a 12-9-4 record, a 2.74 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage.

The Jets will be without captain @Blake Wheeler once again. That being said, @Evgeny Svechnikov will be back in the line-up and positioned on the fourth line next to teammates @Dominic Toninato and @Kristian Vesalainen.

@Kyle Connor leads the Jets in goals (19) and points (34). @Nate Schmidt and Wheeler hold the team share in assists with 16 each.

The desert dogs are a bad team thus far in 2021-22, although they did defeat the Jets 1-0 back on Nov. 29. On the season, the Coyotes are dead last in the NHL with a 6-21-3 record and 15 points.

@Karel Vejmelka will man the crease Tuesday for the Coyotes. This season, he holds a 2-11-1 record, a 3.28 goals-against average and a .902 save percentage through 16 games. The 25-year-old earned his first career NHL shutout last time out against the Jets.

Arizona will be without @Connor Timmins, @Carter Hutton, @Dmitrij Jaskin, @Jakob Chychrun, @Ryan Dzingel and @Jay Beagle during this contest against Winnipeg.

@Clayton Keller currently leads the Coyotes in goals (10) and points (23). Phil “The Thrill” Kessel leads the team in assists with 16.
