#79/80 ASA PLAY ON 8* OVER 5.5 -120 or OVER 6 +110 - Winnipeg Jets at Chicago Blackhawks, Sunday at 7 PM ET - This is a great spot for an over the way we see it. Winnipeg is coached by Rick Bowness who formerly coached the Stars most recently. The Jets just went in to Dallas and got a 5-4 win in OT Friday. That could leave them a little flat on defense here and they have allowed an average of 4 goals per game their last 4 games and did not win any of those in regulation. They also have a big game at home versus defending Stanley Cup champs Colorado so we just can not see the Jets being at their best defensively in this one given the true sandwich spot. This should allow some openings for a hungry Blackhawks team to take advantage when they have the puck in the offensive zone. However, in their own end of the ice, Chicago also could be in trouble in this one! The Blackhawks have lost 6 straight games and allowed an average of 4.5 goals per game during this stretch. Before a lower-scoring loss in last game each of their 4 prior games totaled at least 7 goals and averaged 8 goals apiece. Look for at least 6 in this one! Over is our play here.
