Heading into Game 3, the Avs are the -165 favorite. Colorado’s favoritism is primarily because the match happens at Ball Arena in Denver. Will the Avs get it done?

Why Bet on the Winnipeg Jets?
Winnipeg’s offense was okay in Game 2 when scoring 2 goals. It’s obvious, though, that if the Jets wan to win this series, they’re going to have to force the Avs into a shootout.
Winnipeg was fantastic when dropping 7 into the net in the first game. That’s the way to beat Colorado, which will destroy you if you’re not aggressive enough. The Avalanche’s blue line is too solid for Winnipeg to break unless they take shot after shot. Expect the Jets to be ultra-aggressive on Colorado’s ice.
Why Bet on the Colorado Avalanche?
In 2 games versus the Jets, the Avalanche has scored 6 goals and 5 goals. Game 1 almost ended in a Colorado victory, but the defense couldn’t stop Winnipeg.
But in Game 2, the Avs stepped it up. Everybody contributed in the impressive victory. Game 2 was a dominant performance from Colorado, one that proves the Avs are indeed a Western Conference favorite.
