Winnipeg vs Minnesota Prediction 23 November 2025
🔊 The Winnipeg Jets will host the Minnesota Wild on their home ice in Manitoba as part of the NHL regular season. The hosts are struggling to hold onto the eighth spot in the Western Conference and have lost one of their key players-the league's top goaltender. Meanwhile, the visitors are enjoying arguably their best stretch of the current season, steamrolling opponents along the way.
Head-to-Head
The rivals faced off just a month ago in St. Paul. Back then, Minnesota showcased commendable resilience, but ultimately fell short in overtime with a 4-3 loss. Winnipeg's forward Kyle Connor scored the winning goal, finding the net during the extra time. The American remains in top form, having registered points in six consecutive games.
Head-to-head statistics Winnipeg - Minnesota
Winnipeg Jets Team Overview
Scott Arniel's squad clinched the last regular season title. However, home-ice advantage didn't serve them well in the playoffs, as they exited in the second round. For the 2025/26 season, even making the playoffs seems like a distant dream for the team. Winnipeg are barely holding onto the eighth spot in the Western Conference, having lost five of their last eight games. The injury to goaltender Connor Hellebuyck could prove costly for the Canadians in the long run. Nevertheless, the team manages to mask this issue with their high level of activity. The hosts have already netted 67 goals, ranking among the best in the conference in this regard.

Minnesota Wild Team Overview
The club from St. Paul has truly found their stride. The visitors have secured eight wins in their last ten games, including a current streak of four consecutive victories. Twice during this stretch, they managed to shut out their opponents. If not for a disastrous start to the regular season, the team could very well be sitting atop the Western standings after such a surge. However, they currently hold the fifth spot with highly positive prospects. There's just one concerning factor: Minnesota has conceded 64 goals, the worst record among the top eight in the conference. Despite numerous successes, there's clearly room for improvement for both the coaching staff and the players.

🏒 Projected Lineups
Winnipeg: Comrie - Morrissey, DeMelo - Connor, Scheifele, Vilardi
Minnesota: Gustavsson - Faber, Brodin - Zuccarello, Yurov, Kaprizov
🥅 Goaltenders
Winnipeg's goaltender Eric Comrie has been thrust into the starting role due to Connor Hellebuyck's injury. However, the Canadian has yet to deliver a commendable performance. He saves an average of just 89.9% of shots and occasionally makes significant errors.
Minnesota's goalie Filip Gustavsson maintains a fairly average level of play, which has been more than sufficient for his teammates. The Swede saves an average of 90.6% of shots and has recorded two shutouts. While his overall numbers are modest, there is a slight improvement.
Editors' Prediction
The loss of goaltender Connor Hellebuyck due to injury could be a pivotal factor for the Canadian club, not only in the upcoming clash but also in the near future. The scoring in games involving Scott Arniel's squad has been on the rise even before this setback, with Winnipeg games consistently featuring at least six goals in their last five outings. Considering the visitors' increasing offensive efficiency, this trend is likely to remain relevant. Our bet is on total over 5.5 goals.No comments
