Jets Vs. Sharks Prediction, Odds, Pick, How to Watch - 1/4/2024

A team has the rare chance to avenge a loss against the San Jose Sharks this season, as the Winnipeg Jets visit them on Thursday night. The Sharks handed the Jets their only regulation loss in 14 games on December 12th. It is time to continue our NHL odds series with a Jets-Sharks prediction, pick, and how-to-watch.

The Jets are the hottest team in the league since December. They hold an 11-1-2 record, with their last regulation loss coming in that December 12th game against the Sharks. They tied a franchise record on Tuesday night by securing a point in nine consecutive games. An integral reason for the Jets' run has been the play of Connor Hellebuyck. He surrendered two or fewer goals in 14 of his last 15 starts, thanks to great play and even better team defense.

The December 12th game is also special for the Sharks, as that was the last time they secured a victory. The Sharks would suffer their second ten-game losing streak this season with a loss on Thursday night. If the Sharks are looking for a reason for their losses, they can look no further than their goaltending and team defense. They've allowed five or more goals in six of nine games, which is challenging to overcome with their lack of offensive firepower. The Sharks need to figure out their issues on the defensive end if they want to start winning games. They've been tied in the closing minutes two straight games before giving up the go-ahead and empty net goal to lose by two.
