Jets in 5.

St Louis comes in hot, but can't handle the Jets. 'Peg in 6.

St. Louis will struggle but Winnipeg will struggle more. After regular season success Winnipeg will choke again. Blues in 6.

St Louis had their hot stretch but their roster screams overrated to me. I think Hellebyuck goes on a run. Jets in 5

 

[Ozzie]

Jets in 6. The Jets worked so hard all season.
.......only to draw the hottest team in the league.

Binnington v Hellebuyck..... I saw it once before live in Boston. Over a multigame series the outcome will be different.

Blues played .788 hockey (tops in the NHL) since Four Nations Cup
So you pinch yourself and ask "are they doing the 2019 thing again?"
I look at who rung up the 3.81 GFA in that period and I am not very familiar with a bunch of the names on the roster.
Pleading more ignorance of western teams.
However, reason suggests that Hellebyuck is likely to pop that balloon and the Jets are very likely to move on.
Easy for me to say as I pull for Canadian teams.
