Winnipeg vs Anaheim Prediction 10 October 2026
🔊 Winnipeg have opened the season with three straight wins and return home after another hard-fought contest-this time getting the better of Colorado. Anaheim, meanwhile, have had a bumpier start and head to Canada on the back of a loss to Edmonton, despite leading by two goals during that game. Both teams have already shown they can create chances on the power play, but they're currently at different stages in this early stretch. The Jets will look to extend their winning streak, while the Ducks face the challenge of taking on an opponent they went unbeaten against in last year’s regular season-this time on Winnipeg’s ice.
Last season belonged entirely to the Ducks.
📊 Anaheim swept all three head-to-head games in the 2025/26 regular season, with only one of those contests needing overtime to decide a winner. The Ducks also dominated the season series overall, outscoring their opponents 13-6. However, the longer-term record in Winnipeg tells a different story. The Jets have avoided regulation defeats to Anaheim in 11 of their last 12 home meetings.
Head-to-head statistics Winnipeg - Anaheim
Connor takes charge of the game once again.
Kyle Connor has been one of the standout performers for Winnipeg in the opening stretch. Against Detroit, the forward notched a brace and an assist as the Jets raced to a 3-0 lead by the second period. Cole Perfetti was also influential, tallying three points with a goal and two assists, while Josh Morrissey set up his teammates twice. Winnipeg’s power play was particularly impressive, converting all three of their goals with the man advantage-after two games, they’ve gone 4-for-7 on the power play.
Detroit nearly erased the three-goal deficit, turning the closing stages into a real test for Stuart Skinner. The goaltender made 33 saves to secure his first win in a Jets sweater, coming up big several times in the third period. Winnipeg also killed off four of five penalties. Heading into the matchup with Anaheim, Garrett Brown, Walker Duehr, and Elias Salomonsson remain sidelined, while Josh Morrissey is listed as day-to-day.

Two power plays weren’t enough to prevent a collapse
Anaheim opened their clash with Edmonton just the way they wanted. Beckett Sennecke struck twice on the power play in the first period, with Leo Carlsson picking up assists on both goals. The Ducks took a 2-0 lead into the first intermission, but that would be the extent of their scoring. Edmonton responded emphatically in the second period, netting five unanswered goals to completely flip the game on its head (2-5).
Sennecke’s brace continued the impressive early-season run from Anaheim’s young core, while Carlsson has now tallied seven points. Notably, both Ducks goals against Edmonton once again came with the man advantage-Anaheim have scored all their recent goals on the power play, including their overtime win over Florida (3-2 OT). In the third period against the Oilers, Lukas Dostal, who had made 12 saves through two periods, was replaced by Ville Husso. Ahead of their trip to Winnipeg, Drew Helleson, Troy Terry, and Ian Moore remain on the injury list.

Prediction for the 1st period
Winnipeg consistently open their home games with an early goal. The Jets have found the net in the first period in eight of their last nine outings on home ice. We’re backing Winnipeg’s individual total over 0.5 goals in the first period.
Total Prediction
Anaheim have historically struggled to score four goals when visiting Winnipeg. The Ducks have finished under 3.5 goals in 13 of their last 14 head-to-head games on the road. Our pick is Anaheim Ducks Individual Total Under 3.5 Goals.
Match Outcome Prediction
Anaheim had the upper hand last season, but looking at a broader sample, Winnipeg’s home record tells a different story. The Jets have avoided defeat in regulation against the Ducks in 11 of their last 12 head-to-head meetings on home ice. The smart play here is - Winnipeg to avoid defeat in regulation (1X).
⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
High-scoring games are a rarity in this matchup. The total has stayed under 6.5 goals in nine of the last ten head-to-head meetings, and in Winnipeg, this scenario has played out in seven of their last eight encounters. Early-season form also supports a conservative line: the Jets have won their last two games 3-2, while Anaheim managed just two goals in their previous outing. That’s why my pick is under 6.5 goals.
