04-13-24 | Bruins v. Penguins UNDER 6 | 6-4 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 25 m | Show | |
Bruins @ Penguins 8:07 PM ET Game# 17-18 Play On: Under 6.0 The Bruins have played 6-0 to the under in their last 6 with a combined 4.5 goals scored per outing. The Bruins are expected to start red-hot Linus Ullmark in goal tonight and he has a brilliant .942 save percentage in his last 4 starts. The Bruins power play has gone an anemic 1-16 (6.2%) throughout their previous 5 games. Pittsburgh has been almost as anemic on the power play over the previous 5 games while going 1-14 (7.1%). Pittsburgh has allowed 3 goals or more in each of their previous 3 games. Nevertheless, the Penguins have played 9-2 to the under this season immediately after allowing 3 goals or more in each of their last 3 games. The Penguins are clinging to the Eastern Conference wildcard spot with a narrow 1-point lead over Washington, Philadelphia, and Detroit I fully expect them to be very attentive to their defensive responsibilities this evening. Give me this game to go under the total. |

04-13-24 | Red Wings +156 v. Maple Leafs | 5-4 | Win | 156 | 6 h 25 m | Show | |
Red Wings @ Maple Leafs 7:07 PM ET Game# 15-16 Play On: Red Wings +156 The Detroit Red Wings are playing for the playoff lives right now. They trail Pittsburgh by 1 point for the final Eastern Conference wild card spot and are tied with Washington with each team having 3 games left to play. Toronto can’t finish no higher or lower than 3rd place in the Atlantic Division in addition to the 5th seed in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Desperation and urgency clearly favor Detroit and makes them an extremely live money line underdog betting value. |

04-13-24 | Devils v. Flyers OVER 6.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 26 m | Show | |
Devils @ Flyers 5:07 PM ET Game# 7-8 Play On: Over 6.5 New Jersey has played 7-1 to the over in their last 8 and that includes 5-0 on the road with an average of 8.2 goals scored per game. The Devils have been eliminated from the playoff race so playing a tight-checking game is highly unlikely. The Flyers return home after a 4-game road trip which saw them allow 5.0 goals per contest. Philadelphia has allowed 4 goals or more in 8 of their last 9 games. New Jersey has scored 3 goals or more in 8 of their last 12. These teams met 3 times this season and there was a combined average of 7.0 goals scored and 74.0 shots on goal per game. Give me this game to go over the total. |
|||||||
03-16-24 | Sabres -112 v. Red Wings | 1-4 | Loss | -112 | 4 h 12 m | Show | |
Red Wings @ Sabres 12:30 PM ET Game# 29-30 Play On: Sabres -112 Detroit has lost 7 consecutive games and were outscored by 36-12 in the process. Buffalo has won their last 3 including a 7-3 home win over Detroit earlier this week. As a matter of fact, since the start of last season the Sabres are 5-1 versus the Red Wings and averaged 6.0 goals scored per game while doing so. Buffalo is just 3 points behind the Islanders and Red Wings for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot and is playing with a lot of confidence at the moment while the same can’t be said for the Red Wings. Sabres goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukonen has been extremely good over his last 22 starts with a brilliant 1.90 GAA, .932 save percentage, and posted 4 shutouts. Give me the Sabres on the money line. |
|||||||
11-02-23 | Panthers -114 v. Red Wings | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 6 h 21 m | Show | |
Panthers @ Red Wings 7:07 PM ET Game# 39-40 Play On: Panthers -114 Starting with 2021-2022 season, Florida is 7-0 versus Detroit and that includes 4-0 in away games. After a hot start, Florida is 1-3 versus the money line in their last 4 and that includes 0-2 at home. Additionally, we have a situation in this one where the money line home underdog has a better record and more points at this point. You would think there would be a ton of betting value on the home underdog in this spot. However, it’s seldom that easy when it pertains to sports betting. Give me the Florida Panthers as a money line road favorite. |
|||||||
10-26-23 | Wild v. Flyers UNDER 6 | 2-6 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 54 m | Show | |
Wild @ Flyers 7:37 PM ET Game# 47-48 Play On: Under 6.0 My only regret is that I didn’t jump on this total earlier when it was 6.5. However, I’m still comfortable going under this current number. Minnesota has played 5-0 to the over in their last 5 with a combined average of 9.6 goals scored per game. The Wild have certainly played some teams along the way that were good fits to their wide-open type of style they prefer to play. That won’t be the case tonight when facing a Flyers team which has allowed only 26.6 shots on goal per game during their previous 5 outings. Additionally, the Flyers penalty killing has been very good and their power play which is 1-20 (5%) in their first 6 games has been awful. The Flyers goaltender Carter Hart is off to a superb start to the season while recording a sparkling .922 save percentage. Furthermore, during his 2 home starts Carter has posted a 0.50 GAA and stopped 47 of 48 shots on goal. Give me this game to go under the total. |
|||||||
10-26-23 | Jets -120 v. Red Wings | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 5 m | Show | |
Jets @ Red Wings 7:05 PM ET Game# 37-38 Play On: Jets -120 Detroit is coming off a 5-4 home overtime loss to Seattle that halted a 5-game win streak. Winnipeg is coming off a division 4-2 home win over St. Louis which evened their money line record at 3-3. Yet, it’s the Jets that are currently a favorite on the road in this matchup. That certainly speaks volumes to me. Additionally, since the 2021-2022 season, Detroit has gone an abysmal 2-15 versus the money line immediately following a 1-goal home loss. The Red Wings are also 4-18 against the money line following a home loss by any margin since the start of last season. Any NHL money line road favorite like Winnipeg that’s coming off a division home win, versus an opponent like Detroit that’s coming off a home game in which both teams scored 3 goals or more, resulted in those road favorites going 28-4 (87.5%) over the past 5 seasons and 14-1 (93.3%) throughout the previous 3 seasons. Give me the Jets as a money line favorite. |
|||||||
06-08-23 | Golden Knights v. Panthers -118 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 47 m | Show | |
Golden Knights @ Panthers 8:20 PM ET Game# 47-48 Play On: Panthers -118 (5*) Las Vegas won the first 2 games of this series by scores of 5-2 and 7-2. Since the 2003 Stanley Cup Playoffs, teams like the Golden Knights that are coming off 2 home playoff wins in which they scored 5 goals or more on each occasion, resulted in those teams going 1-9 against the money line. Give me the Florida Panthers on the money line. |
|||||||
06-03-23 | Panthers +119 v. Golden Knights | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 22 m | Show | |
Florida @ Las Vegas 8:00 PM ET Game# 43-44 Play On: Florida +119 (5*) Since losing Game 1 of their opening series versus Boston, Florida has won 8 consecutive road games. The Panthers are converting 27% of their power play opportunities during the playoffs. Conversely, despite reaching the Stanley Cup Finals, Las Vegas has allowed opponents to score on 37% of their man advantage opportunities during this 2023 postseason. The Panthers Sergei Bobrovsky has been brilliant during these 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs while going 11-2 in his starts while recording an outstanding .935 save percentage. Florida enters the Stanley Cup Finals with 9 days rest following a 4-game sweep of the Eastern Conference #2 seed Carolina Hurricanes. Give me the Florida Panthers as a money line underdog. |
|||||||
05-04-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | 2-4 | Loss | -125 | 8 h 25 m | Show | |
Kraken @ Stars 9:40 PM ET Game# 55-56 Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) The oddsmakers are undeterred by the Game 1 final score of 5-4 or by the fact these teams have played 4-1 to the over in games versus one another this season. They have kept the total at 5.5. Despite the Game 1 high scoring affair, the Seattle Kraken have played 9-2 to the under in their last 11 games. Seattle has also played 5-0 to the under in their last 5 immediately following a game in which they allowed 4 goals or more. Conversely, Dallas has played 4-1 to the under at home this season whenever the total was 5.5 and after losing their previous game. Give me this game to go under the total. |
|||||||
05-04-23 | Panthers v. Maple Leafs -1.5 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 6 h 30 m | Show | |
Panthers @ Maple Leafs 7:10 PM ET Game# 53-54 Play On: Maple Leafs -1.5 (+140) (5*) Toronto is coming off a 4-2 home loss to Florida in Game 1 of this series. However, the Maple Leafs are 10-0 in their last 10 conference home games following a loss and won by a decisive margin of 3.3 goals per game. The Leafs are also 6-0 this season at home following a loss by 2 goals or more and won by 2.7 goals per game. Additionally, Toronto is on winning runs 16-1 in their last 17 and 8-0 during its previous 8 overall following a loss. Give me Toronto on the puck-line. |
|||||||
05-03-23 | Oilers -115 v. Golden Knights | 4-6 | Loss | -115 | 6 h 56 m | Show | |
Oilers @ @ Las Vegas 9:40 PM ET Game# 47-48 Play On: Oilers -115 (5*) We have the higher seeded Vegas Golden Knight’s as a home underdog in Game 1 of this series after easily disposing of Winnipeg in 5 games. Conversely, they’ll be taking on an Edmonton team which was pushed hard by the Los Angles Kings during their first round 4-2 series win. That series saw 3 of the 6 games decided in overtime. They’re begging you to take the money line home underdog in Game 1 of this Western Conference Semifinal series. I’m not taking the bait. Give me the Edmonton Oilers on the money line. |
|||||||
05-03-23 | Devils v. Hurricanes -105 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 3 h 16 m | Show | |
New Jersey @ Carolina 7:10 PM ET Game# 51-52 Play On: Carolina -105 (5*) The Devils are coming off an emotional 7-game series win over their bitter rival New York Rangers. That series just ended on Monday night, and now they’ll be facing the Eastern Conference #2 seed Carolina Hurricanes who will be playing on 4 days rest since eliminating the Islanders in 6 games last Saturday. I like the situation and cheap price for Carolina at home. Give me the Carolina Hurricanes on the money line. |
|||||||
04-28-23 | Bruins v. Panthers OVER 6 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 6 h 46 m | Show | |
Bruins @ Panthers 7:35 PM ET Game# 1-2 Play On: Over 6.0 (5*) Florida has played 8-0-1 to the over in their last 9 conference home games and there was a combined average of 8.6 goals per contest. Florida is averaging an incredibly high 39.0 shots on goal per game at home. They’ll be facing Boston goaltender Linus Ullmark who has a superb .935 save percentage in 53 starts and 2 relief appearances this season. However, during the first 5 games of this series, Ullmark has a very mediocre .904 save percentage. Florida is coming off a 4-3 overtime win at Boston in Game 5 to stave off elimination. Since the start of last season, Florida has played 17-3 (85%) to the over immediately following an overtime win. Boston has played 8-0-1 to the over in their last 9 and 10-1-1 to the over during their previous 12 away games. The Bruins have scored 3 goals or more during each of the first 5 games of this series and going back to regular season action they’ve accomplished that feat 8 straight times. Give me this game to go over the total. |
|||||||
04-20-23 | Rangers v. Devils -124 | 5-1 | Loss | -124 | 5 h 48 m | Show | |
Rangers @ Devils 7:30 PM ET Game# 3-4 Play On: Devils -124 (5*) The Devils are coming off an extremely disappointing Game 1 performance in Tuesday’s 5-1 home loss to the Rangers. However, New Jersey has gone 4-0 in their last 4 following a loss and won by a substantial margin of 3.7 goals per game. The Devils are also 6-0 in their last 6 at home this season after allowing 5 goals or more in their previous game and they outscored the opposition by a cumulative score of 24-13. The desperation and urgency factor for the Devils will be very apparent and it’ll be key to them avoiding a 2-0 series deficit heading back to Madison Square Garden for Games 3 and 4. Give me the New Jersey Devils as a money line favorite. |
|||||||
04-19-23 | Kings v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 52 m | Show | |
Kings @ Oilers 10:00 PM ET Game# 61-62 Play On: Over 6.5 (5*) The Oilers are coming off Monday's 4-3 overtime loss in Game 1. Edmonton has played 8-0 to the over at home this season when the total was 6.5 or less and following a home 1-goal home loss in their previous game. There was a combined average of 8.6 goals scored per game. The Kings have played 7-0 to the over this season on the road and following a road 1-goal win. Give me this game to go over the total. |
|||||||
04-18-23 | Rangers v. Devils -126 | 5-1 | Loss | -126 | 5 h 30 m | Show | |
Rangers @ Devils 7:00 PM ET Game# 55-56 Play On: Devils -126 (5*) New Jersey has won their last 7 division home games and outscored their opponents by a decisive cumulative score of 31-7. As a matter of fact, during the last 6 of those wins the Devils allowed 1 goal or fewer on each occasion. Conversely, the Rangers have lost 3 of their last 4 with the lone win coming over Eastern Conference cellar dweller Columbus. New Jersey won 3 of 4 versus the Rangers in regular season action which included coming out on top in both played at home. The Rangers star goaltender Igor Shesterkin started all 4 of those games versus New Jersey and had an uninspiring .894 save percentage in those outings. You can make a strong case the Devils have Shesterkin’s number considering his season lone save percentage is an excellent .916. Give me the New Jersey Devils on the money line. |
|||||||
10-24-22 | Stars v. Senators -109 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 4 h 10 m | Show | |
Dallas @ Ottawa 7:05 PM ET Game# 13-14 Play On: Ottawa -109 (5*) Dallas is coming off Saturday’s 5-2 win at Montreal which improved their season money line record to 4-1. After dropping their first 2 games of the season, Ottawa has ripped off 3 straight wins with all coming at home and outscored their opponents by a cumulative score of 18-9. Since the start of the 2018-2019 season, NHL home teams that are coming off wins in each of their previous 3 games with all those played at home, versus an opponent coming off a road win in which they scored 4 goals or more, resulted in the home teams going 20-6 (76.9%) on the money line. The home team average money line in those 26 situations was +102.2 and they outscored the away teams by an average of 1.7 goals per game. Give me the Ottawa Senators on the money line. |
|||||||
10-18-22 | Bruins v. Senators -125 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
Bruins @ Senators 7:05 PM ET Game# 3-4 Play On: Senators -125 (5*) This has trap play written all over it. We have a Boston team that’s 3-0 as a money line underdog versus an 0-2 Ottawa team. Additionally, Boston is coming off a 5-3 win over a very good Florida team last night and they’ll be playing their 3rd game in 4 days tonight. Ottawa is coming off a 3-2 division loss at Toronto in their previous game on Saturday. The Senators will be playing on 2 days of rest and it will be their home opener tonight. NHL money line favorites of -200 or less coming off a division 1-goal loss, and they’re winless on the season, resulted in those money line favorites going 42-8 (80%) since 1996. Give me the Senators on the money line. |

06-09-22 | Lightning v. Rangers +113 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 49 m | Show |
Lightning @ Rangers 8:15 PM ET Game# 49-50 Play On: Rangers +113 (10*) The Rangers return home with the series tied at 2-2 and coming off 2 road losses at Tampa Bay. The Rangers are 10-1 in their last 11 games following 2 consecutive losses. New York is also 8-0 in their last 8 at home during these playoffs and outscored their opponents by an aggregate score of 35-16. Furthermore, they’re 3-0 at home versus Tampa Bay this season and outscored them 13-4 while doing so. During his 7 starts versus Tampa Bay this season, Igor Shesterkin has a brilliant .942 save percentage. That includes a 3-0 record at home versus Tampa Bay with a superb .962 save percentage. Give me the Rangers for a Top Play wager. |

06-06-22 | Avalanche -124 v. Oilers | Top | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 6 m | Show |
Colorado @ Edmonton 8:00 PM ET Game# 43-44 Play On: Colorado -124 (10*) Edmonton has been limited to only 4 power play chances in the first 3 games of this series. The Oilers will be without forward Evander Kane who has scored 13 goals during these playoffs and is out via 1-game suspension due to a dangerous boarding penalty in Game 3. Colorado has dominated the first 3 games of this series while outscoring Edmonton by a cumulative score of 16-8 and they hold a 130-90 advantage in shots on goal. The Avalanche have averaged an extremely impressive 40.6 shots on goal per game during these playoffs. The Avalanche have amassed 34 or more shots on goal in each of their previous 6 games. Colorado is 26-6 this season after having 30 or more shots on goal in each of their previous 5 games and averaged outscoring those opponents by a sizable 1.7 goals per game. Colorado has also won 6 of their last 7 and averaged a robust 4.9 goals scored per game. Give me Colorado on the money line for a 10* Top Play wager. |
|||||||
06-04-22 | Avalanche v. Oilers OVER 7 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 16 m | Show |
Colorado @ Edmonton 8:00 PM ET Game# 37-38 Play On: Over 7.0 (10*) Both teams have some strong recent algorithms going on with totals in recent weeks. Colorado won Game 2 of this series 4-0 on Thursday night. That game easily stayed under the total of 7.0. Colorado has played 6-1 to the over in their last 7 following an under in their previous outing and there were a combined 8.9 goals scored per game. Edmonton has played 7-1 to the over in their last 8 following an under in their previous outing and there was a combined 8.0 goals scored per game. Colorado has gone a sizzling hot 12-31 (38.7%) on the power during these playoffs. Edmonton isn’t bad themselves having gone 12-41 (29.3%). Colorado has averaged an enormous 40.4 shots on goal per game during these playoffs. That includes a massive 87 shots on goal in the first 2 games of this series with both ending in regulation time. Colorado has played 4-1 to the over on the road during playoff action with a combined average of 7.8 goals scored per game. Edmonton was shutout for just a 3rd time this season on Thursday. The Oilers followed those shutout losses in games that went over the total with final scored of 5-4 and 5-3. The Oilers have played 28-18 (61%) to the over at home this season. Give me this game to over the total for a Top Play. |
|||||||
05-31-22 | Oilers v. Avalanche OVER 7 | Top | 6-8 | Win | 121 | 7 h 21 m | Show |
Oilers @ Avalanche 8:00 PM ET Game# 27-28 Play On: Over 7.0 (10*) We seldom see an NHL total go to 7.0 or more in this modern era and let alone during the playoffs. However, the statistics fully support the oddsmakers bold move. Both teams put on enormous offensive pressure to their opponents. Colorado averages 35 shots on goal per game while Edmonton is at 34. Each team’s power plays have been extremely efficient during these playoffs. Edmonton has scored 4 goals or more in 9 of its last 11 games. The last 5 times Edmonton has played it resulted in a combined 9.0 goals scored per game. Conversely, Colorado has scored 3 goals or more in 8 of its previous 10 games. Colorado has gone an outstanding 10-29 (34.5%) on the power play during postseason action. Give me this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play. |

05-30-22 | Rangers +135 v. Hurricanes | Top | 6-2 | Win | 135 | 7 h 25 m | Show |
Rangers @ Hurricanes 8:00 PM ET Game# 21-22 Play On: Rangers +134 (10*) The opposition to this pick will come from Carolina’s 7-0 home playoff record during these 2022 NHL Playoffs. However, my positive experiences when betting on any Game 7 of a NHL Playoff series started with who I felt was the most reliable or sharp in goal. I don’t think there will be many to disagree with me that Igor Shesterkin has been far better than Antti Raanta. That’s especially so over the past 4 games. During that stretch Shesterkin is 3-1 with a terrific .953 save percentage. Throughout the previous 3 games, Raanta has an uninspiring .889 save percentage. Additionally, the Rangers special teams play has outplayed the Hurricanes and by a wide margin. I look for both of my main points regarding special teams and goaltending to pave the way for a Rangers win tonight. Give me the Rangers on the money line. |

05-05-22 | Predators v. Avalanche OVER 6.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -120 | 8 h 56 m | Show |
Nashville @ Colorado 9:30 PM ET Game# 75-76 Play On: Over 6.5 (10*) The 5 meetings between these clubs have all gone over the total with a combined average 8.4 goals scored per game. Nashville’s goaltending has been horrendous since #1 netminder Juuse Sarros was sidelined by injury. Saros has started 67 of the Predators 83 games this season. Nashville has allowed 4.9 goals per game throughout its last 10. The Predators have gone over the total in each of their previous 6 and allowed 4 goals or more on every occasion. Nashville has also played 31-11 to the over on the road this season including 15-5 if the number was 6.0 or greater. Colorado took Game 1 of this series on Tuesday with a decisive 7-2 win. They will be facing a Nashville team which is a perfect 7-0 to the over this season following a game in which there was a combined 9 or more goals being scored. The Avalanche has been an offensive juggernaut this season by NHL standards while averaging 3.8 goals scored per game. Give me this game to go over the total for a Top Play wager. |

The Blues have played 16-6-1 to the over during its previous 23 games. St. Louis has played 14-7 to the over this season on the road whenever there was a total of 6.0 or greater. The Wild lost the opening game of this playoff series on Monday by a score of 4-0. It marked only the 2nd time all season that Minnesota was held scoreless. The Wild have played 11-3 to the over this season following a game in which they allowed 4 or more goals. Minnesota has averaged a robust 34.0 shots on goal per game throughout their previous 6 outings. The Wild and Blues went over the total in all 3 of their regular season meetings and there was a combined average of 9.3 goals scored per game. Give me this game to go over the total for a Top Play wager. |

05-04-22 | Bruins +106 v. Hurricanes | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 40 m | Show | |
Boston @ Carolina 7:00 ET Game# 61-62 Play On: Boston +106 (5*) Counting their series opening game 5-1 loss at Carolina on Monday, Boston is now 0-4 this season versus the Hurricanes and were outscored by a cumulative margin of 21-2. Yet, here they are as just a short money line road underdog in Game 2. The oddsmakers are pleading with you to take the home favorite Carolina Hurricanes. Well, I’m not taking the bait. Boston also lost their regular season finale and comes in on a 2-game losing streak. Since the start of last season, Boston has 15-2 immediately following 2 consecutive losses. That includes going 6-1 this season and 4-0 during away games. Give me Boston on the money line. |

03-30-22 | Jets v. Sabres +137 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 15 m | Show |
Winnipeg @ Buffalo 7:05 PM ET Game# 19-20 Play On: Buffalo +137 (10*) Winnipeg is coming off wins in each of their previous 2 games. However, the Jets are 0-6 versus the money in their last 7 following back-to-back wins and were outscored by a sizable margin of 2.9 goals per game. Connor Hellebuyck is slated to be in goal for Winnipeg and he’s gone just 9-18 versus the money line in 18 road starts this season. Buffalo has shown drastic signs of improvement in recent game. The Sabres are 6-3 versus the money in their last 9 with an average money line price of +202 and 2 of those losses came in overtime. Hypothetically speaking, if you risked $100 on the money line on Buffalo during that previously mentioned 9-game stretch, you would have made a net profit of $925. Craig Anderson is slated to be in goal for Buffalo. The 40-year-old veteran has gone an outstanding 7-3 in 10 home starts this season while compiling a sparkling .919 save percentage. Buffalo will look to ride the momentum after winning 6-5 at Chicago in their previous outing while overcoming a 4-0 deficit early in the 2nd period. Give me Buffalo as a Top Play money line underdog. |

07-02-21 | Lightning v. Canadiens OVER 5 | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 6 h 11 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay @ Montreal 8:05 PM ET Game# 11-12 Play On: Over 5.0 (5*) Montreal returns home after losing the first 2 games of this Stanley Cup Finals series at Tampa Bay by scores of 5-1 and 3-1. Those defeats dropped their season win percentage to .480. Any NHL team (Montreal) who’s coming off 2 straight road losses by 2 goals or more on each occasion, and they have a season win percentage of .450 to .500, resulted in those games playing 48-16 (75%) to the over since 1996. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager. |

Las Vegas @ Montreal 8:05 PM ET Game# 21-22 Play On: Las Vegas -140 (5*) Las Vegas is shockingly on the brink of elimination against a team in Montreal that qualified for the playoffs with the least amount of regular season points. The Golden Knights are coming off a disappointing 4-1 home loss in game 5 and to put them in a 3-2 series deficit. However, Las Vegas has gone a profitable 23-13 against the money line in away games this season. Conversely, Montreal is just 17-18 against the money line at home. Furthermore, since the start of last season, Vegas has gone an inspiring 26-8 against the money line when playing with revenge stemming from a loss by 2 goals or more. Any NHL money line favorite (Las Vegas) who’s playing with revenge stemming from a home loss by 3 goals or more, and they have a money line win percentage of .600 to .700, and the games takes place in the 2nd half of the season, resulted in those favorites going 34-8 (81%) throughout the previous 5 seasons.

Lightning @ Islanders 8:05 PM ET Play On: Islanders +120 (5*) The Islanders are coming off a 4-2 loss in Game 2 and now return home with this series tied at 1-1. The Islanders are a perfect 3-0 during these 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs following a loss. The Islanders are also an extremely profitable 25-9 versus the money line at home this season, and that includes 9-1 if they allowed 4 goals or more in their previous game. Bet on the Islanders for a 5* money line wager. |

06-16-21 | Canadiens v. Golden Knights OVER 5 | 3-2 | Push | 0 | 7 h 9 m | Show | |
Montreal @ Las Vegas 10:00 ET Play On: Over 5.0 (5*) Montreal has gone under the total in each of their previous 2 games. The Canadiens have played 5-0 to the over in their last 5 going under in each of their previous 2 games. There were a combined 7.2 goals goals scored per game during those 5 previously mentioned occurrences. Conversely, Las Vegas has played 5-1 to the over in their previous 6 following an under during its previous outing. Those 6 outings averaged a combined 6.9 goals scored per game. Any NHL team playing in Game 2 of a Stanley Cup Conference Final has played 31-14 (68.9%) to the over since 1996. That includes yesterday’s Eastern Conference Final Game 2 result that saw Tampa Bay defeat the Islanders 4-2 which went over the total of 5.0. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager. |

06-14-21 | Canadiens v. Golden Knights -1.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 110 | 56 h 23 m | Show |
Montreal @ Las Vegas 9:05 PM ET Play On: Las Vegas -1.5 (+110) (10*) Since falling behind Toronto 3-1 in their first round series versus Toronto, Montreal has reeled off 7 straight wins. Yet, the sportsbooks seem undeterred and unimpressed by the Canadiens recent success based on the money line for Game 1 versus Las Vegas. The strategy is working since were have seen a high volume of money line bets come in on Montreal at this early of a juncture. Las Vegas will be battle tested after beating Minnesota in 7 games and #1 seed Colorado in 6. Bet on Las Vegas -1.5 on the puck-line for a 10* Top Play wager. |

06-13-21 | Islanders v. Lightning UNDER 5.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 26 h 46 m | Show | |
Islanders @ Lightning 3:05 PM ET Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) The Islanders have received great goaltending from Semyon Varlamov and Ilya Sorokin through their first 2 playoff rounds. The two have combined for an outstanding .929 save percentage in 12 postseason games in 2021. Goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy of Tampa Bay has been excellent in recording a brilliant .934 save percentage during this current postseason action. Tampa Bay eliminated Carolina with a 2-0 win in their previous game. Tampa Bay has played 12-2 to the under throughout the past 3 seasons following a shutout win. The Islanders witnessed each of their last 2 games go over the total. New York has played 9-2 to the under this season following 2 consecutive games that went over. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager. |

06-10-21 | Avalanche v. Golden Knights -130 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 7 h 42 m | Show | |
Colorado @ Las Vegas 9:05 PM ET Game# 51-52 Play On: Las Vegas -130 (5*) It’s a shame that one of these teams will be eliminated before the Stanley Cup Semifinals, since either can stake claim as being one of the 4 best teams this season. However, the Golden Knights have won 3 straight in the series and have Colorado on the brink of elimination. Additionally, Las Vegas overcame a 2-0 deficit heading into the 3rd period in Tuesday’s Game 5 overtime win at Colorado. Since the start of last season, Las Vegas has gone 18-3 immediately following an overtime win. Bet on Las Vegas for a 5* money line wager. |

05-27-21 | Hurricanes v. Predators +126 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
Carolina @ Nashville 9:35 PM ET Game# 23-24 Play On: Nashville +126 (5*) The Predators are facing elimination after losing Game 5 of this series at Carolina. There will be a high sense of urgency and desperation for the Predators tonight as they look to force a deciding Game 7 at Carolina. The good news for Nashville backers is plentiful. The Predators have gone 6-0 in their last 6 this season as a money line home underdog. Nashville is also 6-0 in its last 6 at home following a loss. Lastly, they have gone 4-0 in their previous 4 played at home versus Carolina. Bet on Nashville for a 5* money line wager. |

05-22-21 | Golden Knights v. Wild +106 | 4-0 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
Las Vegas @ Minnesota 8:05 PM ET Game# 57-58 Play On: Minnesota +106 (10*) The Wild have lost the last 2 games and now trail in the series 2-1. They certainly don’t want to head back to “Sin City” in a 3-1 hole and facing elimination. The elements of playoff desperation and urgency should clearly favor Minnesota tonight. Additionally, the Wild has not endured a 3-game losing streak all season and are a perfect 8-0 when coming off back-to-back defeats. Minnesota has also gone 4-0 in their last 4 as a money line underdog of +100 to +150. Wild goaltender Cam Talbot has been stout in this series with a superb .935 save percentage and I look for him to come up huge in Game 4 on Saturday. Bet on Minnesota for a 10* Top Play money line wager. |

05-21-21 | Hurricanes v. Predators +120 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 120 | 4 h 26 m | Show |
Carolina @ Nashville 7:08 PM ET Game# 43-44 Play On: Nashville +120 (10*) It’s do or die for Nashville tonight for all intents and purposes. They’re down 2-0 in the series and are coming off a humbling 3-0 loss in Game 2 and 5-2 defeat in the series opener. On a positive note, since the start of last season, Carolina is 1-6 following back-to-back home wins by 2 goals or more. Additionally, Nashville was outscored 2-0 during 3rd period action in Game 2. The Predators are 7-1 this season following a game in which they allowed 2 goals or more in the 3rd period of their previous game. Recent NHL money line betting history indicates that the Predators are a superb value in this specific situation. Since the 2016-2017 NHL season began, any home team that’s coming off a division loss by 3 goals or more, and they’re facing an opponent coming off home wins in each of their previous 2 games played, resulted in the home clubs going 40-11 (78.4%). The home team’s average money line in those 51 games was +108. Bet on Nashville for a 10* Top Play money line wager. |

05-18-21 | Wild v. Golden Knights OVER 5.5 | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 16 m | Show | |
Minnesota @ Las Vegas 10:05 Game# 17-18 Play On: Over 5.5 (5*) Minnesota is coming off a 1-0 road win in Game 1 on Sunday thanks to a 42-save shutout performance by goaltender Cam Talbot. Nonetheless, Minnesota has played 6-0 to the over following an under in their previous game and there a combined average of 7.7 goals scored per occurrence. Minnesota has also played 10-4 to the over this season following a game in which they allowed 1 goal or less. As a matter of fact, the Wild allowed 3 goals or more in each of its last 10 regular season games. Las Vegas has gone 5-0 in their last 5 following a loss and they averaged 5 goals scored per game. The Golden Knights averaged 3.4 goals per game during regular season action which was good for 3rd best in that NHL statistical category. I look for the Golden Knights to break through in the goal scoring department tonight and make their series opening no goal effort a distant memory. Any NHL home team with a total of 5.5 that’s coming off a 1-goal loss (Las Vegas) and they have a money line win percentage of .700 or better, versus an opponent (Minnesota) with a money line win percentage of .600 to .700, resulted in those games playing 21-5 (80.8%) to the over since 1996. Those 26 contests averaged a combined 7.2 goals scored per game. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager. |

St. Louis @ Colorado 10:05 PM ET Game# 5-6 Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) Colorado enters the Stanley Cup Playoffs winners of 5 straight while allowing only a combined 9 goals in those victors. Colorado has played 3-1 to the under this season when hosting St. Louis. The Avalance finished their regular season slate with 2 consecutive overs. They’ve played 4-0-1 to the under in their last 5 following overs in each of their previous 2 games. Philip Grubauer has made 22 starts and came on in relief once at home this season and compiled an excellent .935 save percentage while doing so. St. Louis is coming off an over in their regular season finale. They have played 7-2 to the under in their previous 9 following an over in their previous game. Despite being in only his 3rd NHL season, Jordan Binnington is a proven goaltender at this time of year. Binnington was a major reason why the Blues were Stanley Cup winners in 2019 which was his rookie campaign. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager. |

05-17-21 | Bruins v. Capitals +118 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
Boston @ Washington 7:35 PM ET Game# 1-2 Play On: Washington +118 (5*) There’s a lot of NHL bettors who are banking on Boston to even this series up after suffering a 3-2 overtime loss in Game 1 on Saturday. I’m going the opposite way. Yes, the Capitals lost their #1 goaltender Vitek Vanecek to a lower body injury. However, the Caps have a very capable backup in veteran Craig Anderson who came in and stopped 21 of 22 Boston shots on goal to earn the win. As a matter of fact, During his last 4 appearances, Anderson has stopped 80 of 85 shots on goal for an excellent .941 save percentage. Washington has gone 12-5 in its last 17 and 31-13 during their previous 34 against the money line. Washington has gone highly profitable 7-3 in their last 10 games as a money line underdog of +135 or less this season. Bet on Washington for a 5* money line wager. |

Tampa Bay @ Florida 7:38 PM ET Game# 65-66 Play On: Tampa Bay -120 (10*) This to me is a simple matter of reading between the lines with no pun intended. We have a Florida team playing at home in an opening game of a playoff series, and they finished regular season play on a 6-game win streak, versus an opponent who has lost 3 straight while being outscored 14-3 in the process of doing so, and it’s the road team who is listed as a money line favorite. Furthermore, these teams finished the regular season with 2 consecutive games against won another which resulted in 4-0 and 5-1 wins by Florida. The sportsbooks are begging you to take the home underdog but I’m not falling for the trap. Besides, Tampa Bay possesses an enormous edge when it comes to postseason experience which usually shows up early in a series. Bet on Tampa Bay for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Bruins @ Capitals 7:15 PM ET Game# 47-48 Play On: Over 5.5 (10*) These teams finished the regular season with a game against each another, and Washington skated away with a 2-1 win. Despite that low scoring affair, the series between these teams this season has played 6-2 to the over. Prior to that loss, Boston had scored 3 goals or more in 7 straight and 13 of their previous 15 games. The Capitals finished regular season play as the 4th highest scoring team at 3.4 goals per game, and they were also #3 on the power play with a 24.8% conversion rate. Furthermore, Washington has played 7-1 to the over during its last 8 when there was a total of 6.0 or less and they went under in their previous game. Boston has played 9-1-1 to the over following an under in their previous game. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play. |

04-10-21 | Wild -119 v. Blues | 2-3 | Loss | -119 | 7 h 47 m | Show | |
Minnesota @ St. Louis 8:05 PM ET Game# 61-62 Play On: Minnesota -119 (5*) Minnesota suffered an embarrassing 9-1 loss at St. Louis last night. Yet, they’re a road favorite against the same team that hammered them last night. Since the start of the 2019-2020 season, Minnesota is an extremely profitable 10-2 following a loss by 4 goals or more, and if they were a money line favorite of -110 to -140 their record improved to 7-0 with an average victory margin of 2.3 goals per outing. The Blues have gone 1-5 against the money line at home this season following a game in which they scored 4 or more goals. This will be the 6th game in 9 days for St. Louis. The Blues are 0-4 this season when playing 6 or more games in a 10-day period. Ville Husso is slated to get the start in goal tonight for St. Louis. Husso is 0-4 in his starts at home with a horrible .833 save percentage. Bet on Minnesota for a 5* money line wager. |

02-27-21 | Canadiens -132 v. Jets | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -132 | 7 h 59 m | Show |
Montreal @ Winnipeg 10:05 PM ET Game# 53-54 Play On: Montreal -132 (10*) Winnipeg has gone 7-3 against the money line in their last 10 and that includes a current 3-game win streak. Conversely Montreal has lost 4 straight and 7 of its last 8 versus the money line. Yet, it’s Montreal who is a decent sized favorite tonight. It’s more time than not as easy as it appears when it comes to sports betting. This is one of those spots to think like an oddsmaker while also doing away with conventional thinking. The Canadiens will go with backup Jake Allen in goal tonight. Allen has been terrific in 7 starts this season while compiling a brilliant .932 save percentage. The way #1 goaltender Carey Price has recently played, Allen gives Montreal their best chance to win. The Jets are coming off Thursday night’s 6-3 home win over Montreal. However, since the start of last season, Winnipeg is an abysmal 0-7 against the money line following a game in which a combined 9 or more goals were scored. Bet on Montreal for a 10* Top Play wager. |

02-23-21 | Penguins v. Capitals OVER 6 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -117 | 5 h 26 m | Show |
Pittsburgh @ Washington 7:05 PM ET Game# 51-52 Play On: Over 6.0 (-117) (10*) Pittsburgh is 7-3 to the over this season whenever there was a total of 6.0 or greater. Tristan Jarry is slated to get the start in goal for Pittsburgh. Jarry has gone 0-5 in his road starts this season while posting a brutal .823 save percentage in those games. The Penguins are a poor 2-6 against the money line on the road this season and allowed an alarmingly high average of 4.0 goals per game while doing so. Pittsburgh is also averaging a lofty 3.6 goals per game during their last 5 outings. Washington has played 7-3 to the over at home this season. The Capitals goaltending has left much to be desired thus far and that’s reflected by their combined .881 save percentage which isn’t very good. One thing that has been this season is the Capitals power play which has converted on an impressive 33.3% of their man advantage situations. Better yet, Washington is 12-24 (50%) on the power play at home. Since the start of the 2018-2019 season, these teams have seen 8 of their 11 games played against one another go over the total and that includes 3-1 to the over this season. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 10* Top Play wager. |

02-22-21 | Wild -150 v. Sharks | 6-2 | Win | 100 | 6 h 60 m | Show | |
Minnesota @ San Jose 10:35 PM ET Game# 81-82 Play On: Minnesota -150 (5*) This is right on the edge of where I am comfortable going when it comes to a money line favorite. Nonetheless, I couldn’t pass on this favorite after looking inside the numbers. San Jose is coming off a road win at St. Louis in their previous game. The Sharks have yet to win 2 straight games this season, and are an abysmal 0-6 against the money line following a loss and were outscored by a decisive margin of 23-12. Minnesota is a profitable 5-3 on the money line during road games this season including wins in each of their previous 2 road tilts. Kaapo Kahkonen is expected to get the start in goal for Minnesota tonight and he’s gone 3-1 in 4 road starts this season with a solid .927 save percentage. Bet on Minnesota for a 5* money line wager. |

02-22-21 | Golden Knights v. Avalanche -130 | 3-0 | Loss | -130 | 5 h 30 m | Show | |
Las Vegas @ Colorado 9:05 PM ET Game# 43-44 Play On: Colorado -130 (5*) Las Vegas has averaged only 1.6 goals per game during its last 5 outings. As a matter of fact, during that stretch they scored 4 of their 7 goals scored on the power play. They will be facing an excellent penalty killing team tonight in Colorado. The Avalanche have killed off 43-48 (89.6%) power plays against them this season. That includes holding Las Vegas to 1-10 (10%) on their man advantage situations in their 3 games against the Golden Knights this season. Colorado lost their home opener to St. Louis. However, since that defeat, they have gone a perfect 4-0 at home while outscoring their opponents by a cumulative score of 20-4. The Avalanche averaged a lofty 37.3 shots on goal per game in those 4 home wins and had a combined 149-100 shots on goal edge. Colorado goaltender Philip Grubauer is expected to get the start tonight and he’s posted a terrific .945 save percentage throughout his previous 4 start. His counterpart tonight will be Marc-Andre Fleury who has been excellent this season in 10 starts while compiling a brilliant .935 save percentage. Nevertheless, Colorado has gone 9-2 versus the money line since the beginning of last season when facing a starting goaltender with a season long save percentage of .930 or better. Bet on Colorado for a 5* money line wager. |

02-22-21 | Lightning -124 v. Hurricanes | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 3 h 31 m | Show | |
Tampa Bay @ Carolina 7:05 PM ET Game# 79-80 Play On: Tampa Bay -124 (5*) Tampa Bay is 0-2 against Carolina this season and was shutout on both occasions. The last of which occurred on Saturday 4-0. Since the start of last season, the Lightning are an extremely profitable 12-1 following a game in which they scored 1 goal or less. Despite those recent struggles against Carolina, Tampa Bay finds themselves as a small money line road favorite this season. That fact all by itself speaks volumes to me. The oddsmakers are begging you to take the home underdog in this spot and there’s plenty of bait available to lure NHL bettors into doing so. Any NHL road team that’s playing with same season revenge stemming from a loss by 4 goals or more, and they’re playing just their 2nd game in 5 days, resulted in those road teams going 40-12 (76.9%) versus the money line since 1996. The average money line for those 52 road teams was -123. Bet on Tampa Bay for a 5* money line wager. |
|||||||
02-21-21 | Jets v. Canucks UNDER 6.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -120 | 7 h 4 m | Show | |
Winnipeg @ Vancouver 10:05 PM ET Game# 33-34 Play On: Under 6.5 (10*) Note: This pick is good even if the total is 6.0. Draft Kings currently has it at 6.5. The last 5 meetings between these clubs have all played under the total. There was just a combined average of 3.6 goals scored per game. Winnipeg has gone under in 7 of their last 8 games played. Vancouver has played 5-1-1 to the under in their previous 7 games played. The Canucks power play units have gone an uninspiring 12-72 (16.9%) this season and that includes 2-14 (14.3%) during their previous 5 games. On the other hand, their penalty killing units have killed off 39 of 43 power play chances (89.7%) against them at home. Winnipeg has converted on only 4 of their 27 (14.8%) of their man advantage situations during road games this season. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Calgary @ Edmonton 10:05 PM ET Game# 23-24 Play On: Edmonton -127 (10*) Edmonton is coming off last night’s 2-1 win at Calgary. As a result, the Oilers have now won 4 of its last 5 and 8 of their previous 10 games. Furthermore, since the start of last season, Edmonton is an extremely profitable 10-1 versus the money line when playing with no rest. The Calgary power play has gone 4-33 (12.1%) on the road and 1-15 (6.7%) during its last 5 games overall. That’s not good news considering they will be facing an Oilers team tonight that averages a robust 3.7 goals scored per game at home. Bet on Edmonton for a 10* Top Play money line wager. |

Los Angeles @ Arizona 9:05 PM ET Game# 61-62 Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) Los Angeles is coming off their best defensive effort of the season and it resulted in a 4-0 home win over Minnesota. I look for them to be committed to that defensive effort again tonight. Arizona goaltender Darcy Kuemper has been sensational in 7 home starts this season while recording a brilliant .940 save percentage in those outings. One of those home starts was in Arizona’s previous game in which the Coyotes won 1-0 over St. Louis. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager. |

02-18-21 | Islanders +107 v. Penguins | 1-4 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 53 m | Show | |
NY Islanders @ Pittsburgh 7:05 PM ET Game# 49-50 Play On: NY Islanders +107 (5*) Pittsburgh’s goaltending duo of Tristan Jarry and Casey DeSmith has left much to be desired this season. The 2 have combined for a terrible .878 save percentage. It’s a good reason why Pittsburgh is 29th in the NHL when it comes to scoring defense while having allowed 3.6 goals per game. The Islanders are expected to go with red-hot Semyon Varlamov in goal tonight. During his last 4 starts Varlamov has posted an excellent .948 save percentage. The Islanders as a team are allowing a mere 1.4 goals per game throughout their previous 5. During that span, they also posted 2 shutouts and each of those came in road games. Since the start of the 2018-2019 season, the Islanders have gone 9-4 against the money line versus Pittsburgh and that includes 4-1 on the road. Bet on the Islanders for a 5* money line wager. |

Nashville @ Columbus 7:05 PM ET Game# 51-52 Play On: Columbus -117 (5*) Nashville is a poor 1-5 against the money line on the road this season and is being outscored by an average of 2.0 goals per game. The Predators are allowing an alarmingly high 4.0 goals per game throughout its last 8 appearances. The Predators special teams units have been brutal this season and that’s putting it nicely. Nashville will be facing a Columbus team coming off 2 straight losses. Nevertheless, The Blue Jackets are a perfect 3-0 this season following back-to-back losses. Simply put, Columbus hasn’t lost 3 in a row versus the money line all season and that streak stays intact after this game goes final. Bet on Columbus for a 5* money line wager. |

Minnesota @ Los Angeles 10:05 PM ET Game# 35-36 Play On: Minnesota -127 (5*) Los Angeles is coming off a 6-2 home win over a poor San Jose team which ended a 0-5 money line freefall. The Kings opened this season with a pair of identical 4-3 home losses to Minnesota. Jonathan Quick is expected to get the start in goal for Los Angeles. Quick has a horrible .867 save percentage in 6 starts this season. Minnesota is coming off a 2-1 loss at Colorado in their previous game. The Wild are 3-1 versus the money line this season following a money line loss. Bet on Minnesota for a 5* money line wager. |

Colorado @ Las Vegas 10:05 PM ET Game# 37-38 Play On: Colorado +104 (5*) If you follow the NHL like I do, you are fully aware that Marc-Andre Fleury of Las Vegas has been the hottest goaltender in the NHL. However, Colorado’s Philip Grubauer hasn’t been so shabby himself. Grubauer is 7-3 versus the money line in 10 starts this season while posting a brilliant .937 save percentage. Colorado lost at Vegas on Sunday by a score of 1-0. The Avalanche are a perfect 4-0 this season following a loss and they outscored those opponents by a cumulative score of 20-7.

The Flame are currently riding a 3-game win streak and outscored those 3 opponents by a cumulative score of 12-7. Jacob Markstrom is scheduled to be in goal for Calgary tonight, and he’s posted a brilliant .931 save percentage in 5 road starts this season. Markstrom is also 3-0 this season versus his formed team and compiled an excellent .968 save percentage while stopping 90 of 93 shots on goal. Calgary dominated Vancouver in those games by outscoring them 11-3. Bet on Calgary for a 5* money line wager. |

Carolina @ Dallas 8:05 PM ET Game# 73-74 Play On: Carolina -117 (5*) Carolina has gone 3-0 against Dallas this season and outscored them by a decisive 13-7 margin. This isn’t a good matchup for Dallas besides their recent failures against Carolina. The Hurricanes are averaging 32.4 shot on goal and have converted on 23.8% of their power play chances. Dallas is 0-5 this season versus opponents that average 29 or more shots on goal and convert on 17% or better of their man advantage situations. Dallas has also lost 4 straight and 6 of its last 7 games overall. Bet on Carolina for a 5* money line wager. |

Tampa Bay @ Florida 7:05 PM ET Game# 67-68 Play On: Florida +122 (5*) The defending Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning are a perfect 6-0 at home this season. However, they’re just 2-3 versus the money line during their previous 3 on the road. They were a money line favorite on each of those occasions. NHL bettors that played to win $200 a game on Tampa in those 5 away tilts lost $540. Saturday will be the finale of a 4-game in 6-day road trip for the Lightning. Tampa Bay is coming off a 5-2 loss at Florida on Thursday and a 6-1 win at Nashville. The Lightning have gone a dismal 7-17 against the money line since last season after playing back-to-back games that had a combined 7 goals or more being scored.

Maple Leafs @ Oilers 10:05 PM ET Game# 57-58 Play On: Maple Leafs -128 (5*) Toronto has cashed in on each of their previous 3 road games. On the other hand, Edmonton is 1-3 on the money line at home. The Toronto power play has been dynamic thus far going 10-24 (41.7%). Edmonton has allowed their opponent to convert on 31.2% of their power play chances against them to this point.

The Penguins are 0-3 against the money line in road game this season while Boston is a perfect 3-0 at home and has scored 14 goals while doing so. Boston has received solid goaltending to start the season. Conversely, Pittsburgh’s tandem of Tristen Jarry and Casey DeSmith have been shaky with a combined .868 save percentage.

Islanders @ Capitals 7:05 PM ET Game# 41-42 Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) The Islanders have seen all 6 of their games play to the under this season and there were only a combined 3.6 goals scored per outing. Furthermore, the Islander have shut opponents twice and have also be held scoreless on 2 other occasions. These teams met on Tuesday and the Islanders came away with a 3-2 loss. Since the start of last season, the Islanders have played 16-2 to the under on the road following a road game. Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov has been senstational in 4 starts this season as evidence by his .966 save percentage. Washington will still be without star forwards Alex Ovechkin and Evgeni Malkin who remain out due to COVID-19 quarantine protocols. The Capitals have gone 3-0-1 to the under in their last 4 versus the Islanders. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager. |

09-05-20 | Islanders -123 v. Flyers | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 18 m | Show | |
Flyers vs. Islanders 7:30 PM ET Game# 5-6 Play On: Islanders -123 (5*) This is a win or take all Game 7 with the victorious team advancing to an Eastern Conference Finals series against Tampa Bay. All 3 Philadelphia wins during this series have come in overtime and that includes each of the last 2 games. The Islanders deserved a better fate in Game 6 after having a shots on goal advantage of 53-31. Since the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs, any money line favorite of -115 to -155 coming off 2 straight overtime losses has gone 15-4 (78.9%). The favorite outscored those 19 underdogs by an average of 1.5 goals per game. Bet on the Islanders for a 5* money line wager. |

Vegas vs. Vancouver 9:45 PM ET Game# 23-24 Play On: Over 6.0 (5*) Vancouver is coming off a 2-1 win over Vegas and now trails this playoff series 3-2. More importantly, The Canucks have gone over in 10 of its last 11 following a win in their previous game. Vegas has gone over in 7 of their last 8 following an under. Furthermore, since the start of last season, Vegas has scored 1 goal or less in a game just 11 times, and they have gone 7-0-3 over the total during its next outing.

Flyers vs. Islanders 8:00 PM ET Game# 7-8 Play On: Flyers +107 (5*) This series has 7 games written all over it and the zig-zag playoff betting theory is in play. The bad news for Flyers fans is their team is coming a 3-1 loss yesterday. The good news is their Flyers have gone 11-0 in their last 11 games following a loss and won by an average of 2.5 goals per outing. Bet on the Flyers afor a 5* money line wager. |

Even more compelling is the fact that Vegas averaged an enormous 42.0 shots on goal per game during those 4 meetings. This will only be Vancouver’s 2nd game in the past 5 days and they are 24-4 (85.7%) over the total this season when cast into that precise situation.

Tampa Bay vs. Boston 8:00 PM ET Game# 11-12 Play On: Boston -108 (5*) Boston is coming off a 4-3 overtime loss last night which evened up their series against Tampa Bay at 1-1. Playoff teams like Boston who were cast into this exact situation have done extremely well over the past 12 years. They also fell within a similar money line betting parameter as Boston is in today. Since the 2009 NHL Playoffs, and team playing in Game 3 of a series tied at 1-1, and they are coming off a loss in which they allowed 4 goals or more, resulted in those teams going 28-13 (68.3%). The average money line for those 41 teams was -114.4. Bet on Boston for a 5* money line wager. |

Boston vs. Tampa Bay 7:00 PM ET Game# 5-6 Play On: Tampa Bay +100 (5*) Despite their 3-2 loss in the series opener, I like the way Tampa Bay pressed Boston extremely hard in the final period after falling behind 3-0. That game stayed under the total of 5.5 which is significant from a money line betting perspective. The Lightning have gone 30-7 this season following an under in their previous game. That also includes a perfect 11-0 in their last 11 following a loss in which the game went under. Bet on Tampa Bay for a 5* money line wager. |

Bruins vs. Lightning 8:00 PM ET Game# 741-742 Play On: Boston -105 (5*) Boston is coming off a series clinching 2-1 win over Carolina in the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals. The Bruins are an extremely profitable 21-4 this season following a 1-goal win. Conversely, Tampa Bay finished off Columbus in their quarterfinal series in 5-games by winning the last 3 after losing Game 2. The Lightning are a poor 6-12 this season after winning 3 of its last 4 games. Tampa Bay was a dismal 0-10 on the power play in their series against Columbus. Boston was a solid 5-19 with the man advantage against Carolina and killed off 13 of 15 power plays against them. The Bruins has a sizable territorial edge against Carolina which is evidence by their +9.4 shots on goal per game advantage in that series. Tampa bay was outshot by a combined 70-47 in the last 2 games of the Columbus series. Since Boston goaltender Tuukka Rask decided to leave the bubble after a Game 2 loss to Carolina, Jaroslav Halak has gone 3-0 with a superb .932 save percentage. Bet on the Bruins for a 5* money line wager. |

08-20-20 | Stars v. Flames +113 | 7-3 | Loss | -100 | 5 h 47 m | Show | |
Dallas vs. Calgary 10:30 PM ET Game# 3-4 Play On: Calgary +113 (5*) Despite going 1-2 in his last 3 starts, Calgary goaltender Cam Talbot has compiled an excellent .946 save percentage throughout that stretch. The Flames have dropped the last 2 games of this series and now find themselves on the brink of elimination. Calgary has gone a profitable 5-1 in their last 6 following 2 straight losses and 8-2 during its last 10 after losing their previous game. The Flames special teams continue to play well while Dallas is just 4-28 (14.3%) on the power play during this postseason. Desperation, urgency, great goaltending, and special teams will be instrumental in Calgary forcing a Game 7. Bet on Calgary for a 5* money line wager. |

Montreal vs. Philadelphia 8:00 PM ET Game# 75-76 Play On: Montreal +125 (5*) Despite allowing just 5 goals during the first 4 games of this series, Montreal finds themselves on the brink of elimination. It did not help that the Canadiens were shutout in each of the previous 2 games. On a positive note, besides shutting the Flyers down offensively, they permitted them to amass a paltry 20 and 22 shots on goal during the past 2 games. The Flyers are a mere 1-17 (5.9%) on the power play in the series. Conversely, Montreal is 3-12 (25%) with the man advantage through 4 games. Carey Price has started in all 8 of the Canadiens postseason games and has recorded a brilliant .945 save percentage. I am going with the more desperate and urgent team tonight. Bet on Montreal for a 5* money line underdog wager. |

Chicago vs. Vegas 1:30 PM ET Game# 65-66 Play On: Under 6.0 (10*) Chicago goaltender Corey Crawford has been outstanding during the last 2 games of this series while stopping 72 of 75 Vegas shots on goal which equates to a superb .960 save percentage. It’s no coincidence that the last 2 games of this series have gone under. These teams have combined to go an atrocious 1-21 (4.8%) on the power play throughout the first 4 games of this series. Vegas leads the series 3-1, and since the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs they have gone 11-3 under when leading a playoff series. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager. |

08-17-20 | Blues -123 v. Canucks | 3-1 | Win | 100 | 8 h 33 m | Show | |
St. Louis vs. Vancouver 10:30 PM ET Game# 59-60 Play On: St. Louis -123 (5*) It certainly was not easy, the defending Stanley Cup champion St. Louis Blues avoided falling into a 3-0 series hole by coming away with a 3-2 overtime victory last night. Keep in mind, St. louis is a sparkling 16-2 this season following a 1-goal win in their previous game. The Blues replaced struggling goaltender Craig Binnington with Jake Allen and it paid huge dividends as Allen turned aside 39 of 41 Vancouver shots on goal. Like Boston, the Blue have a substantial territorial advantage in this season by holding a shot on goal advantage of 117-88. If not for the stellar play of goaltender Jacob Markstrom we probablly would be talking about the Blues leading this series. However, Markstrom has faced an enormous average of 39.0 shots on goal per game this series, and at that pace he can not help but being worn down. The effects of exactly that will begin to show this evening. Bet on St. Louis for a 5* money line wager. |

08-17-20 | Bruins -114 v. Hurricanes | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 5 h 58 m | Show | |
Carolina vs. Boston 8:00 ET Game# 57-58 Play On: Boston -114 (5*) Boston has a decided territorial advantage over the first 3 games of this series by having shots on goal advantage of 114-84. The Bruins are coming off a 3-1 win in Game 3 of this series and that is significant from a betting perspective. Boston is an extremely profitable 20-4 this season after allowing 1 goal or less in their previous game. The Bruins have also gone a dominating 8-1 in their last 9 games against Carolina with 7 of those coming in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The Hurricanes are expected to start Petr Mrazek in goal tonight. Since 2019, Mrazek is 0-4 in his postseason starts against Boston while recording a terrible .876 save percentage. Bet on Boston for a 5* money line wager. |

08-16-20 | Blues -127 v. Canucks | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 7 h 56 m | Show | |
Blues vs. Canucks 10:40 PM ET Game# 51-52 Play On: Blues -127 (5*) The defending Stanley Cup champion St. Louis Blues find themselves shockingly down 2-0 in this series against a young but talented Vancouver team. I look for the Blues to display a high degree of desperation tonight while attempting to avoid an almost insurmountable 3-0 series deficit. St. Louis is 0-5 since the restart while Vancouver has won 5 straight games since losing to Minnesota in their opener of a best-of-5 play in series. Yet, the oddsmakers did not hesitate to keep St. Louis as a money line favorite. Keep in mind that St. Louis outshot Vancouver by a decisive 68-47 margin through the first 2 games. Vancouver is a remarkable 5-9 on the power play in this series. This is in stark contrast to the 3 regular season meeting between these clubs in which the Canucks were a dismal 0-12 with the man advantage. Additionally, Craig Binnington has not played well in goal during the first 2 games evidenced by his abysmal .809 save percentage. I look for him to have a bounce back performance. After all, this is the same goaltender who was instrumental in St. Louis winning the Stanley Cup last season. It is time for the heart of a champion to shine through. Bet on the Blues for a 5* money line wager. |

The good news for Philadelphia is Montreal has gone 2-11 this season following a game in which they scored 5 or more goals. Furthermore, the Flyers are 8-0 in their last 8 games following a loss and outscored their opponents by a combined score of 41-17. Bet on the Flyers for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Those 5 outing averaged a combined 7.6 goals scored per game. The Islanders have really had Braden Holtby’s number this season. Holtby has started 4 times against the Islanders during this 2019-2020 NHL campaign and he recorded an abysmal .843 save percentage while allowing 4 goals on each occasion. The Islanders are 4-1-1 over the total thus far in the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager. |

The Bruins has the Hurricanes number having defeated them 7 straight times including 5 in a row during Stanley Cup Playoff action. Boston goaltender Tuukka Rask has started all 5 playoff games against Carolina since last year, he has gone a perfect 5-0 with an outstanding .944 save percentage. Conversely, Carolina goaltender Peter Mrazek has made 3 playoff starts versus Boston since last year and is 0-4 with a terrible .848 save percentage. Bet on Boston for a 5* money line wager. |

Carolina vs. Boston 11:00 AM ET Game# 5-6 Play On: Boston -133 (10*) The Hurricanes are 0-6 in their last 6 against Boston and have been outscored by a combined 23-8 in those contests. Tuukka Rassk was in goal for 4 of those 6 wins and posted a brilliant .956 save percentage. Speaking of Rask, he has been consistent all season while recording a stellar .928 save percentage in 43 starts. Carolina has not played since last Tuesday after making quick work of the Rangers in a 3-0 Qualifying Round sweep. Since the start of last season, Carolina is a dismal 3-12 when playing on 3 or more days rest. They will be playing a Boston team which has a .603 money line win percentage this season. Since the start of last season, Carolina is 5-15 when facing an opponent with a money line win percentage of .600 to .750. Bet on Boston for a 5* money line wager. |

Flyers vs. Lightning 8:00 PM ET Game# 11-12 Play On: Lightning -135 (5*) The Lightning still have a bitter taste in their mouths for its shocking failure last postseason after amassing 128 points in regular season action. They were swept in 4-games during a first round matchup against #8 seed Columbus. This game against the Flyers is for the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference bracket of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Since the start of the 2017-2018 season, Tampa Bay has gone 7-0 in their last 8 games versus Philadelphia and averaged 5.0 goals scored per game. The Lightning goaltender Vasilevskiy has made 2 starts against Philadelphia this season and posted a stellar .946 save percentage in those outings. Bet on the Lightning for a 5* money line wager. |

Minnesota vs. Vancouver 10:45 PM ET Game# 61-62 Play On: Over 5.5 (5*) Both teams average a tad better than 3 goals per game which is more than respectable by modern day NHL standards. Vancouver is coming off a 3-0 win to take a 2-1 series lead and resulting in Minnesota being on the brink of elimination. Obviously that game went under the total. Vancouver has gone 18-10 over the total this season following an under in their previous game. Minnesota has gone 20-11 over the total this season following an under. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 5* wager. |

Chicago vs. Edmonton 6:45 PM ET Game# 59-60 Play On: Over 6.5 (5*) The Blackhawks are up 2-1 in this series despite their goaltender Corey Crawford recording a terrible .859 during that span. Chicago has now gone over in 4 straight games. Since the start of last season Chicago has gone 15-5 over following 4 straight games that went over. Edmonton is currently a money line favorite of -125. They have gone 16-5-1 over the total this season as a money line favorite of -150 or less and that includes 8-1 during its last 9 in that specific role. The Oilers power play has been red-hot in this series while cashing in on 5 of 12 (41.7%) of their man advantage situations. Unfortunately, the Edmonton goaltending tandem of Mikko Koskinen and Mike Smith have a combined .860 save percentage in this series which is poor. These teams have now met 5 times this season and each of those games has gone over with a cumulative 8.2 goals being scored per contest. Bet on this game to go over the total for a 5* wager. |

Canadiens @ Penguins 8:00 PM ET Game# 9-10 Play On: Under 5.5 (5*) The goaltending during the first 2 games of this best-of-5 series has been superb. Carey Price has stopped 74 of 78 Penguins shots on goal for an excellent .949 save percentage. Matt Murray has turned away 58 of 62 Montreal shots on goal for a stellar .935 save percentage. The teams have combined to go an abysmal 1-for-17 (5.9%) on the power play in this series. This will be the 6th meeting of the season between these clubs and each of the previous 5 have gone under.

Columbus vs. Toronto 4:00 PM ET Game# 37-38 Play On: Toronto -144 (5*) I look for Toronto to play with a high degree of urgency and desperation today after sustaining a 2-0 defeat in the opening game of this best-of-5 series. Dating back to before the break, Leafs goaltender Frederik Anderson has an exemplary .968 save percentage over his last 4 starts. Toronto has scored 2 goals or fewer in each of their previous 5 games. They possess too much offensive firepower for that lack of scoring to continue. They will be facing a Columbus team which has allowed just 1 goal over their previous 2 outings. Any NHL team (Toronto) who has allowed 2 goals or fewer in each of their previous 2 games, and is facing an opponent (Columbus) which has allowed 1 goal or less in each of its last 2 games, resulted in those teams going 26-5 (83.9%) against the money line over the past 5 seasons. Bet on Toronto for a 5* money line wager. |

Conversely, Vegas was an extremely profitable 11-2 against the money line in their last 13 regular season games. Dallas is slated to go with Ben Bishop in goal tonight. Bishop has gone 0-4 in his last 4 starts with a terrible .857 save percentage while doing so. Vegas has gone an excellent 33.3% on their power play attempts throughout its previous 5 games. On the other hand, Dallas has allowed their previous 5 opponents to convert on an alarmingly high 37.5% of its power play chances. Bet on Vegas for a 5* money line wager. |

Minnesota vs. Vancouver 10:30 PM ET Game# 13-14 Play On: Minnesota +105 (5*) These teams finished the regular season headed in opposite directions. Vancouver has gone 6-11 against the money line in their last 17 while Minnesota went 8-3 during its previous 11. Jacob Markstrom is slated to be in goal tonight for Vancouver. However, Markstrom missed the final 8 regular season games due to injury and has not made a start since 2/22. That amounts to over a 5-month layoff for a goaltender entering Stanley Cup Playoff action and I am banking on Markstrom being a bit rusty in the opener of this best of 5-game series. Bet on Minnesota for a 5* money line wager. |

Winnipeg vs. Calgary 10:30 PM ET Game# 15-16 Play On: Under 6.0 (10*) The Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck has an outstanding .923 save percentage in 58 games this season. During his last 6 starts versus Calgary, Hellebuyck has recorded a sparkling .937 save percentage. Calgary goaltender David Ritich has made 3 starts against Winnipeg last season and compiled an excellent .950 save percentage during those outings. These teams have seen their 3 head to head meetings go under the total and there was a combined average of 3.7 goals scored per game. Bet on this game to go under the total for a 10* Top Play wager. |

06-12-19 | Blues v. Bruins -175 | 4-1 | Loss | -175 | 8 h 9 m | Show | |
Blues @ Bruins 8:00 PM ET Game# 13-14 Play On: Bruins -175 (5*) When push comes to shove the outcome may just come down to what goaltender plays better. My money is on the veteran Tukka Rask of Boston over Blues rookie Jordan Binnington. Rask has been outstanding during these 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs by going 15-8 in 23 starts while amassing an outstanding .938 save percentage. Comparatively, Binnington is 15-11 with a very average .907 save percentage. Boston’s power play will also make a huge difference. They’ve gone an excellent 24-71 (33.8%) during the playoffs and that includes 7-22 (31.8%) in this series. Conversely, St. Louis is 1-18 (5.6%) on the power play during these 2019 Stanley Cup Finals. Boston is coming off a resounding 5-1 win at St. louis in Game 6 to force a deciding Game 7. The Bruins are a perfect 8-0 this season as a money line home favorite off -145 or greater following an away win by 2 goals or more, and they won by a decisive average of 2.5 goals per game. Bet on the Bruins for a 5* money line wager. Note: I very rarely bet on a money line favorite of this size. Here’s a money management suggestion. Hypothetically speaking, if you normally play to win $500 on a money line favorite, then I would advise risking $500. Basically, instead of risking $875 to win $500, I recommend risking $500 to win $285. |

06-09-19 | Bruins +108 v. Blues | Top | 5-1 | Win | 108 | 7 h 42 m | Show |
Bruins @ Blues 8:20 PM ET Game# 11-12 Play On: Bruins +108 (10*) Despite St. Louis having an opportunity to win their first ever Stanley Cup and in front of their home fans to boot, I firmly believe the Bruins will be able to stave off elimination. Boston has lost each of the previous 2 games in this series and this season they’ve gone 9-2 during its last 11 following 2 consecutive defeats which includes 5-1 on the road. Furthermore, the Bruins are coming off a 2-1 loss in Game 5, and they’ve gone 11-2 this season following an outing in which they scored 1 goal or less which includes 3-0 during these 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs. I’m looking for Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask to be far superior than the Blue rookie Jordan Binnington. Lastly, I full expect Boston to playing with the highest degree of desperation and urgency that St. Louis won’t be able to match for an entire 60 minutes or however long it takes to decide a winner. Bet on the Bruins for a 10* Top Play wager. |

Bruins @ Blues 8:00 PM ET Game# 7-8 Play On: Blues -108 (10*) The Blues are coming off an embarrassing 7-2 home loss to Boston on Saturday. I fully expect St. Louis to play with a high degree of desperation and urgency tonight. They can ill afford to go down 3-1 in the series with Game 5 being played at Boston on Thursday. Any NHL team that allowed 6 or more goals in their previous game, and they’re facing an opponent coming off a win by 4 goals or more, resulted in those teams going a very profitable 52-24 (68.4%) during the past 5 seasons Bet on the Blues for a 10* Top Play money line wager. |

05-27-19 | Blues v. Bruins UNDER 5 | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 42 m | Show | |
Blues @ Bruins 8:00 PM ET Game# 1-2 Play On: Under 5.0 (5*) Boston’s Tuukka Rask and Jordan Binnington of St. Louis are two red-hot goaltenders.
