Winnipeg Jets have played a great hockey this year - they are 2nd in the Western Central Division, just behind Chicago with 20 points. The Flyers are 6th in the Eastern Metropolitan Division with only 17 points.  Both teams recorded (scoring) match totals of at least 4 goals in their last 5 games. The Jets are the 4th highest scoring team in the league; the Flyers are 3rd in that category. The official, basic Las Vegas line for O/U in this game is (5.5 Goals). With that said, I pick the "Alternative Goal Line" option @ BET365 (Over 4.5 Goals). [Unless the amount to bet is specified, as is in this game, our predictions are generally made for a $100 wager.]
