Staff Preview

Avalanche vs. Jets Prediction: Colorado Is Likely Winner, but -192 Is Too Steep

Analysis updated October 7, 2026 at 7:17 AM CDT

Colorado owns the stronger early scoring numbers, but the unconfirmed goalies and Winnipeg’s 2-0-1 start make the Avalanche a pass at -192.

Colorado’s scoring surge drives the matchup

ColoradoAvalanche.com / NHL.com reports that Colorado has scored 14 goals during its 2-0-0 start, including six in an October 4 win over St. Louis. The Avalanche have averaged a league-best 5.00 five-on-five goals per game, while Nathan MacKinnon has five points and Artturi Lehkonen has three goals. That production makes Colorado the likely winner in Winnipeg.

The Jets enter 2-0-1 after beating Pittsburgh 3-2 on October 5. Cole Perfetti and Kyle Connor each have five points, and Clay Stevenson stopped 29 of 31 shots against the Penguins. Winnipeg’s strong start makes Colorado’s -192 moneyline difficult to justify on the road.

Betting view

Neither starting goalie nor any injury information is confirmed. That uncertainty rules out a supported play on Colorado -1.5 or Winnipeg +1.5, especially because SPF doesn’t list prices for either side of the puck line.

The total is 6.5, with over -105 and under -115. Colorado’s scoring favors the over, but the missing goalie information leaves too much uncertainty to bet either side. The best betting decision is to pass.
