The Seattle Kraken will visit the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday to play their last game of the season as both teams are eliminated from the playoff contention. This is the third time these teams meet this season, the Jets won the last 2 games.

In their last 10 games the Kraken are 4-6, averaging 2.7 goals, 5.2 assists, 3.3 penalties and eight penalty minutes while giving up 3.2 goals per game.

Winnipeg Jets

Winnipeg have won their last 3 games and are 22-18 at home so far this season. They have 38-32-11 overall record ranking 6th in the Central division. The Jets have a -6 scoring differential, with 243 total goals scored and 249 allowed.

In their last 10 games the Jets are 5-5, averaging 3 goals, 4.7 assists, 3.2 penalties and seven penalty minutes while giving up 3 goals per game.

BETTING TRENDS

Seattle are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games.

Seattle are 1-5 SU in their last 6 games on the road.

Winnipeg are 4-0 ATS last 4 games at home.

The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Winnipeg's last 7 games at home.

Prediction

Two teams that have nothing to play for here so don't expect much from this game. The Jets have won their last 3 games and allowed only 2 goals on those games and with the Kraken averaging 2.7 goals per game I think the play here is the under.

PICK: Under 6.5 (-110)
