Stephen Nover's Stanley Cup Total of the Week
(NHL) Nashville vs. Winnipeg, 05/01/2018 4:00 PM, Score: 4 - 7
Total: 5.50 | 107.00 Under
Result: Win
The Jets just know one speed - and it's not slow. Winnipeg isn't going to change its style after splitting two road games against the Predators to open this series. Winnipeg has scored four goals in each of its first two games versus Nashville. Now the Jets are home where they have scored three or more goals in 15 of their past 17 games at Bell MTS Centre.

The Predators knew they had to pick up the pace and play more aggressive following a 4-1 Game 1 home loss this past Friday. So they did just and were rewarded with a 5-4 double overtime victory in Game 2 this past Sunday.

That was the 11th time in their last 14 games the Predators have scored at least three goals.

These teams have a history of playing high scoring games.

The Over has won in five of the seven meetings between Nashville and Winnipeg this season. Even the games that didn't get above the total featured a lot of shots on goal and scoring opportunities.

The Predators are averaging 4.0 goals per game against the Jets this season while Winnipeg is averaging 3.8 goals per game versus Nashville.
