Winnipeg Jets (1-0-0) vs. Dallas Stars (2-0-0)
The Winnipeg Jets and Dallas Stars open their three-game Central Division regular-season series Monday, October 17, 2022. The Jets head to American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas, as +128 moneyline underdogs, while the Stars are listed as -141 home favorites with a total of 6.0 goals.
The Stars shoot for their fourth straight victory over the Jets. Dallas has also won six consecutive home contests against Winnipeg, so let’s see what the best Jets vs. Stars betting pick for Monday night is.
The Winnipeg Jets took the ice just once in the opening week of the 2022-23 NHL season. They beat the New York Rangers 4-1 as -145 home favorites this past Friday, finding the back of the net three times in the final five minutes of the third period. Mark Scheifele accounted for a couple of goals, while Nikolaj Ehlers had two assists.
The Jets head coach Rick Bowness missed Friday’s clash due to COVID-19, so associate coach Scott Arneil ran the bench. Bowness spent the last three years in Dallas, leading the Stars to the 2020 Stanley Cup Final.
“I thought they did a great job preparing us for the game.”
Kyle Connor and Scott Arniel speak about missing Bones behind the bench, last night's big win, and more! ??

Connor Hellebuyck started the new season on a high note. The Rangers outshot the Jets 41-34, but Hellebuyck posted a thumping 40 saves to lift his team over the reigning Eastern Conference vise-champs. The 29-year-old netminder didn’t impress in 2021-22, tallying a 29-27-10 record with a 2.97 GAA and .910 save percentage, and the Jets missed the playoffs for the first time since 2017.
