Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Kyle Connor (Winnipeg Jets) / Over Shots on Goal / 3.5 at -120 / 68% / Connor averages 3.8 SOG in home games this season, facing Wild’s middling PK (78.2%) and high-danger defense vulnerabilities; matchup favors volume shots.

Player Prop #2: Kirill Kaprizov (Minnesota Wild) / Over Points / 0.5 at -110 / 62% / Kaprizov leads Wild with 0.9 points per game in 2025, exploiting Jets’ backup goalie (.900 SV%) post-Hellebuyck injury; recent form includes multi-point games vs Central foes.

Player Prop #3: Mark Scheifele (Winnipeg Jets) / Under Points / 0.5 at +105 / 55% / Scheifele held to under in 6 of last 8 home games, Wild’s top PK unit (81.5%) and Brodin’s potential return limit opportunities; defensive matchup suppresses scoring.

⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public sentiment heavily favors the Jets on the moneyline, aligning with sharp money distribution and stable line movement, making a follow-the-public approach optimal rather than fading. Both teams’ defensive metrics (top-10 xGA/60) and key injuries point to a low-scoring affair, with the under holding the strongest EV. Overall, Jets’ home edge persists, but Wild’s recent 6-1 streak suggests a competitive, close contest unlikely to exceed the total.
