The Jets have to figure out something as they are on the cusp of going down in this series by a 3-0 margin and after blowing the home games the Jets had it could be difficult for the Jets to actually come back on the road to break that. The Jets in the last game did put up a fight, but still it was not enough for them to bring home the win. What else is wrong is the Jets were slumping coming into the playoffs and do not appear to have shaken that rust off yet against the Blues. The Blues for their part looked amazing in the 2 games they took from the Jets in the white out conditions that has become the Winnipeg Jets home arena and has been a hard place to win a playoff game in. In the net for the Jets was Connor Hellebuyck who played 58:10 in the game. He did have 6 short handed saves and a power play save. The downside is he only faced a total of 32 shots and allowed 4 of them to go sailing past him and into the back of the net.

The Blues actually sent out Jordan Binnington to start this game instead of Jake Allen. Binnington allowed 3 goals, but faced a short handed and power play shot. He also faced a total of 29 shots. Either way if Binnington is going to be in net for the Blues in the rest of the playoffs he will definitely have to improve on this figure.

The Blues are playing amazing hockey and have pushed the Jets backs up against the wall. Look for the Blues to be able to push home their advantage in this game and on home ice be able to secure a win as the Jets offense continues to struggle, but with the offensive struggles they are unable to help support Hellebuyck in the net, which cost the Jets. Final Score Prediction, Saint Louis Blues win 4-2.
