Previous Games:

  • Game 5: Jets won 5-3 (Winnipeg leads series 3-2)

  • Games 3 & 4 (in St. Louis): Blues won both, scoring 12 total goals

Head-to-Head:

Winnipeg holds the series lead 3-2 and has looked stronger overall, but the Blues have dominated at home this postseason. St. Louis thrashed the Jets 7-2 in Game 3 and followed it up with another convincing win in Game 4. The home team has won 4 of the 5 games in this series so far.

Winnipeg Jets Breakdown:

Despite losing both games in St. Louis, the Jets remain the more complete team. Connor Hellebuyck, though a bit shaky in Games 3 & 4, bounced back in Game 5 with 30 saves. Winnipeg still boasts elite defensive metrics — allowing just 2.32 goals per game on the season and suppressing shots effectively. Their power play is dangerous (28.9%), and Kyle Connor continues to lead with 97 total points.

Key Players:

  • Kyle Connor: 7 goals, 7 assists in last 10 games

  • Connor Hellebuyck: 2.01 GAA (regular season), .925 SV%, 47 wins

St. Louis Blues Breakdown:

The Blues thrive at home and will need another big performance in Game 6 to stay alive. Offensively, they’ve been solid, averaging 3.7 goals in their last 10 games. Jordan Kyrou and Robert Thomas remain their most consistent producers. However, goaltending remains a liability — Binnington owns a .889 SV% over the last 10, and he allowed 5 goals in Game 5.

Key Players:

  • Robert Thomas: 17 points (3 G, 14 A) last 10 games

  • Pavel Buchnevich: 15 points (7 G, 8 A) last 10 games

Betting Trends:

Winnipeg Jets:

  • 7-3 in last 10 games

  • 4 of last 5 have gone OVER the total

St. Louis Blues:

  • 14-6 in last 20 games

  • OVER has hit in 7 of last 8 games

  • 14 straight home wins

Exact Score Prediction:

Winnipeg Jets 4 – St. Louis Blues 3

Our Best Bet:

Over 5.5 Goals (-110)

With both teams scoring at a high clip lately and neither goalie standing on their head in this series, the OVER is the safest play. Five of the last six combined games between these two have gone over 5.5 goals, and both teams have proven offensive weapons. Hellebuyck will likely keep Winnipeg competitive, but St. Louis' home dominance should also contribute to a higher-scoring game.
