Staff Prediction

The Jets have been one of the biggest pleasant surprises this season, sitting on top of the Central division. Hellebuyck has been one of the best goalies in the NHL this season and has already accumulated 3 shutout. The Blues have scored 11 goals in their last 2 games, so it should be a god matchup. I do think it will be Hellebuyck who will be the difference, and will keep the Blues out of the net for the majority of the night.
