  • Who: San Jose Sharks at Winnipeg Jets
  • When: Monday, February 24, 7:30 p.m.

The NHL picks show that as they travel to Winnipeg to face the Jets, the road has not been kind to the San Jose Sharks. They've won just once away from home since Dec. 14. That was a 6-3 verdict at Detroit on Jan. 14.

Entering the second game of a season-high seven-game road trip, the six away wins posted by the Sharks are tied for the fewest by an NHL team.

Meanwhile, the Jets feast on home cooking. Winnipeg is an NHL-best 22-5-3 straight up on home ice this season. And the Jets are riding a nine-game winning streak.

No wonder then that oddsmakers are setting the Jets as heavy -450 home-ice favorites in the NHL picks for this game.

Let's look at the latest betting line on this game. Odds are subject to change.

There are just two NHL games on the agenda during a quiet Monday night of action. By simple process of elimination, that makes this one of the games that we think provides the best bets of the night in the NHL picks.
