Players To Watch:
Dallas Stars
Miro Heiskanen’s return to the lineup was huge, and he could become a massive impact in game six as the Dallas Stars look to eliminate the Jets tonight.
Jake Oettinger has been the better goaltender all series, and he could solidify the USA starter nomination with a big win tonight over the Jets.
Mikko Rantanen has been playing like a cold-blooded killer all series long, and with the Stars nearly ready to advance to the Western Conference Finals, Rantanen could have his fingerprint on another game in Winnipeg.
Winnipeg Jets
Cole Perfetti has been due for a big game this series, and that has yet to come. It is better late than never for the Jets’ youngster after his massive game seven performance against the St. Louis Blues.
Connor Hellebuyck must have another big game for the Winnipeg Jets, like he did in game two, if the Jets and Hellebuyck want to keep their series chances alive.
Josh Morrissey is the Jets’ best defender as he’s been valuable for the team game after game. With a big game on the line for the Jets, they’ll look to Morrissey to have a top notch performance if the team wants to stay alive.
