League: NHL | Game Time: 8:00 PM ET • 7:00 PM CT • 6:00 PM MT • 5:00 PM PT | Last Updated: 2026-10-20 05:57 PM EDT

💰 Best Bet #1 St. Louis Blues / Spread / -1.5 at +185 / 58% / Blues home edge and Jets’ road struggles (2.6 GF away) support a multi-goal margin more often than the juice implies.
💰 Best Bet #2 Under / Total / 5.5 at +105 / 59% / Both clubs sit under 3.0 GF season-long; low-event profiles and average GA near 3.0 favor the under side after NHL historical adjustment.
💰 Best Bet #3 St. Louis Blues / Moneyline / -135 / 61% / Home favorite with superior recent margin control and Jets’ 5-7 start create positive EV at the listed price.

💡 Mathematical Edge (EV)

Top 3 Player Props – St. Louis Blues

  • Player Prop #1: P. Buchnevich / Over 0.5 Points / -140 / 71% / Blues average 2.7 GF and Buchnevich drives secondary scoring; Jets allow 3.1 GA creating high-probability point involvement.
  • Player Prop #2: J. Binnington / Under 2.5 Goals Against / +105 / 68% / Jets score only 2.6 GF overall; Binnington’s home starts and Blues’ 2.9 GA profile support the under.
  • Player Prop #3: D. Holloway / Over 0.5 Shots on Goal / -160 / 74% / Consistent shot volume in recent Blues games (avg 3.9 GF last 10) against Jets’ porous road defense.

Top 3 Player Props – Winnipeg Jets

  • Player Prop #1: Connor / Over 0.5 Points / -130 / 69% / Connor leads Jets attack (team 2.6 GF); Blues allow 2.9 GA and recent high-event games favor a point.
  • Player Prop #2: Scheifele / Under 0.5 Goals / -120 / 66% / Jets’ low overall finishing and Blues home defensive structure (recent shutout capability) limit pure goal probability.
  • Player Prop #3: Lowry / Over 0.5 Hits / -145 / 72% / Physical checking role thrives in Blues’ average pace; consistent hit totals against Central opponents.

⚖️ Analysis Summary

Season-long scoring rates for both teams sit well below 3.0 GF, producing a projected total near 5.4 that slightly favors the Under before the mandatory NHL flip confirmation. Blues hold the clearer win probability and positive EV on both moneyline and puck line given home ice and Jets’ 5-7 record. No reliable public-fade signal exists in the supplied splits, so the mathematical side is followed. Overall scoring outlook remains moderate-to-low.

🔮 Recommended Play

Follow the math with St. Louis Blues ML and -1.5; take the flipped Under 5.5.
