The Senators are going to play more up-tempo, expecting to get back forwards Drake Batherson and Tim Stutzle. The Jets are on the verge of official elimination. So they should play with nothing to lose.

Winnipeg has given up 18 goals in its last four games. The Jets did score four goals against the Avalanche in their last game. Colorado is the No. 7 defensive team in the league. Ottawa ranks 23rd defensively. The Senators are giving up 3.6 goals per game in their last three games.

The Jets likely get to face Ottawa rookie goalie Mads Sogaard, who has made only one NHL start.

The teams met on March 24 and the Senators won, 5-2. I'm expecting at least seven goals in this matchup, too.
