- New York has won 4 of the last 6 meetings with Winnipeg including a recent 3-2 win on March 4, 2025. Islanders have covered the spread recently against the Jets.
- No significant injuries reported for either team entering this matchup, suggesting both can field near full strength lineups.
- The game is played at UBS Arena, giving Islanders home-ice advantage; however, the current form strongly favors the Jets.
