When it comes to a puck line pick, our choice is the Jets to secure the win and cover. Expect the Jets to dominate this one with a multi-goal win over the Oilers.
For those looking at the over/under line set at 6 goals, our expectation is that this game will surpass that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the over.
Jets Chase Franchise-First Presidents’ Trophy in Showdown With Oilers
The Winnipeg Jets are just one point away from claiming their first-ever Presidents’ Trophy, and they’ll have a golden opportunity to clinch it on home ice Sunday against an Edmonton Oilers team limping toward the playoffs. While the game won’t shift playoff seeds for either team, the stakes remain sky-high — especially for a Jets squad looking to cap a historic regular season.
If you’re planning to ride the wave into the postseason, this game is packed with implications — and a great time to check out reliable NHL expert picks and predictions before the puck drops.
Jets on the Brink of History
Saturday night’s 5-4 shootout win over the Blackhawks not only secured Winnipeg the top spot in the Central Division and Western Conference — it also set the table for a shot at league-wide supremacy. With one point on Sunday, the Jets (55-21-4, 114 points) will capture the Presidents’ Trophy for the first time in franchise history.
“It’s taken us 80 games to get this division,” said Jets coach Scott Arniel. “It’s been a grind… To get that over and done with, it’s a relief.”
Josh Morrissey led the charge with two goals, Kyle Connor contributed a goal and an assist, and Cole Perfetti sealed the win with a clutch shootout goal — his first-ever attempt in that format. The victory marked Winnipeg’s third straight and continued their dominance heading into the final game.
However, there was concern for Nikolaj Ehlers, who exited after a collision with a linesman. Arniel confirmed it may be related to a previous injury, and his status remains day-to-day.
McDavid Sparks Surging Oilers Amid Injury Chaos
Edmonton (46-28-5, 97 points) comes in with its own momentum — and its own set of injury headaches. Since returning from a lower-body injury, Connor McDavid has racked up seven assists in the Oilers’ last two wins. He now joins an elite club as just the fourth player in NHL history with five consecutive 70-assist seasons.
“He’s made a huge difference. He’s the best player in the world for a reason,” said Corey Perry. “He comes in and looks like Connor McDavid — that’s just who he is.”
Friday’s 4-2 win over San Jose also saw strong outings from Evan Bouchard and Adam Henrique, but it came at a cost. Mattias Ekholm and Zach Hyman both left with undisclosed injuries, adding to a growing list that already includes Leon Draisaitl, Jake Walman, Trent Frederic, and Evander Kane.
Despite the short bench, McDavid continues to elevate the play of those around him.
“He can score or get an assist every shift… he leads by example,” said goaltender Calvin Pickard.

Recent History Favors Winnipeg
The Jets have had the upper hand in recent matchups with the Oilers, winning four of the last six, including the last two. Their most recent clash on March 20 ended in dramatic fashion — a 4-3 overtime win thanks to a game-winner from Kyle Connor.
With McDavid likely to play and the Jets eyeing a major milestone, this has all the makings of a compelling finale to the regular season, even as both clubs prepare for the next chapter.
