05-09-22 | Rangers -104 v. Penguins | Top | 2-7 | Loss | -104 | 11 h 13 m | Show |
NHL First Round Division Game of the Year. My selection is on New York over Pittsburgh at 7 pm et on Monday. I don't feel that we've seen the Rangers best performance yet in this series. Sure, there was a 5-2 victory in Game 2 but even in that contest, it didn't seem like the Blueshirts were in complete control. Off a 7-4 drubbing on Saturday - a game that featured a furious second period rally from New York after falling behind 4-1 after the first - I look for the Rangers to bounce back in a big way on Monday. A stunningly poor performance from likely Vezina Trophy winner Igor Shesterkin highlighted Game 3 on Saturday. He was pulled early in that contest, a rare sight for sure. I certainly expect the world class goaltender to rebound with a much better performance here. Note that the Rangers check in 15-6 after losing two of their last three games this season, outscoring opponents by 0.9 goals on average in that situation. Better still, they're 7-1 after losing five or six of their last seven contests over the last two seasons, as is the case here, averaging 4.0 goals per game and outscoring the opposition by 1.5 goals on average in that spot. When seeking revenge for a road loss against an opponent this season they've allowed an average of only 1.7 goals per game while averaging 3.8 themselves, going 9-1 along the way. The last 37 times we've seen the Penguins play on home ice when leading a playoff series they've been outscored by an average margin of 0.2 goals. Take New York (10*). |

05-08-22 | Hurricanes v. Bruins UNDER 5.5 | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 26 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Carolina and Boston at 12:30 pm et on Sunday. This is obviously the pivotal game in this series so far and while it's been a relatively high-scoring matchup to this point with all three games finding their way 'over' 5.5 goals, I expect a different story to unfold on Sunday. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 8-1 with the Bruins coming off three losses in their last four games this season, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 4.6 goals. The 'over' has now cashed in five straight meetings between these two teams - the longest such streak in the series since 2013-2014. Take the under (6*). |
|||||||
05-07-22 | Flames -155 v. Stars | 2-4 | Loss | -155 | 14 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on Calgary over Dallas at 9:30 pm et on Saturday. Coming off a shutout loss in Game 2, I look for the Flames to regain their focus and answer back as the scene shifts to Dallas for Game 3 on Saturday. Shutout victories have been few and far between for the Stars in recent years. One thing is for certain though, they haven't performed well following up on those performances, noting that they check in 1-8 when coming off a shutout win over the last three seasons, outscored by an average margin of 1.1 goals in that situation. The Flames have been one of the best road teams in the league this season, going 25-16 while outscoring the opposition by 0.6 goals on average. The Stars average a less than impressive 2.9 goals overall this season but that average drops to 2.5 when coming off four or five wins in their last six contests (34-game sample size), as is the case here, outscored by 0.4 goals on average in that spot. Take Calgary (6*). |

05-06-22 | Wild v. Blues -109 | 5-1 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 48 m | Show | |
My selection is on St. Louis over Minnesota at 9:30 pm et on Friday. We won with the Wild in Game 2 of this series on Wednesday but I won't hesitate to go the other way and back the Blues as the series shifts to St. Louis for Game 3 on Friday. The Wild desperately needed a win to even up this series in Game 2. Not surprisingly, the Blues came out flat after a shutout victory in Game 1. Here, I look for the Blues to ramp up again and ultimately prove to be too much for the Wild to handle. Minnesota continues to struggle to keep the puck out of its net. It acquired Marc-Andre Fleury to shore up its goaltending situation prior to the trade deadline but he's only been average at best - certainly not the savior some were expecting. Note that the Wild are allowing 3.2 goals per game on the road this season. When playing on the road off a home win over a division opponent over the last two seasons, as is the case here, they've allowed a whopping 4.7 goals per game, outscored by 2.4 goals on average while winning just once in nine games. The Blues on the other hand have allowed 6+ goals in a game on six previous occasions this season. Each time they've responded with a win in their next game, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 3.1 goals in that situation. Take St. Louis (8*). |

05-05-22 | Penguins v. Rangers -138 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 31 h 24 m | Show | |
My selection is on New York over Pittsburgh at 7 pm et on Thursday. The Penguins rallied to take the opener of this series in thrilling triple-overtime fashion on Tuesday so now it's up to the Rangers to answer back before the scene shifts to Pittsburgh for Game 3. I expect them to do just that in Game 2 on Thursday. Here, we'll note that the Pens are just 15-23 when playing on the road after scoring 3+ goals in consecutive games over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscored by 0.5 goals on average in that situation. The Rangers have hit a rough patch at a tough time but the good news is, they're 12-6 after losing four or five of their last six games over the last two seasons, which is the situation here, averaging 3.6 goals per game and outscoring the opposition by 1.1 goals on average in that spot. Bouncing back hasn't been a big issue for the Blueshirts in recent years as they're 30-16 when coming off a home loss over the last three seasons, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.0 goal along the way. Keep in mind, the Rangers had won three straight meetings in this series before the Penguins pulled out the win on Tuesday. Now it's New York's turn to gain an ounce of revenge. Take New York (9*). |

05-05-22 | Penguins v. Rangers UNDER 6 | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -115 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
NHL First Round Division Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'under' between Pittsburgh and New York at 7 pm et on Thursday. I can't help but feel we're seeing an overreaction to a couple of things from Game 1 of this series, leading to plenty of '6's' on the board for Game 2. First of all, the series-opener was a high-scoring one, with seven goals scored, albeit in more than five periods of hockey. We certainly saw how things can tighten up, however, noting that there was just one goal scored in the first period and none in the third (or in the first or second overtime periods of course). Second, the Penguins were already down a goalie with Tristan Jarry on the shelf but Casey DeSmith was forced to leave Game 1 due to injury as well and his status is still up in the air for Game 2. Keep in mind, Louis Domingue stepped in and performed admirably, just as he has whenever he's been called upon this season, posting a .960 save percentage in three games, with the 'under' cashing in both of his previous starts. Rangers goaltender and likely Vezina Trophy winner Igor Shesterkin did not have a good Game 1. I expect him to bounce back here, however. He owns a .941 save percentage at home this season with the 'under' cashing in 19 of his 30 starts at Madison Square Garden. The 'under' checks in 12-4 with the Rangers playing at home after scoring 3+ goals in three or more consecutive games over the last two seasons, leading to an average total of just 5.2 goals. The Penguins average an impressive 3.3 goals per game this season but that scoring average drops to 2.7 goals per contest over the last three seasons when they play on the road after scoring 3+ goals in consecutive games, as is the case here. Take the under (10*). |

05-04-22 | Kings v. Oilers -182 | 0-6 | Win | 100 | 12 h 17 m | Show | |
My selection is on Edmonton over Los Angeles at 10 pm et on Wednesday. Don't think for a second that the Oilers aren't still haunted by last year's first round four-game sweep at the hands of the Jets. Edmonton didn't get off to the start that it hoped for in this series, falling 4-3 to the Kings on Monday. I look for the Oilers to answer back on Wednesday, noting that they're still 28-14 on home ice this season, averaging 3.8 goals per game and outscoring opponents by an average margin of 0.7 goals. The Kings on the other hand, check in a solid 24-18 on the road but have actually been outscored by an average margin of 0.1 goal per game. You could argue that Los Angeles was in a favorable spot in the opener of this series as it had dropped three consecutive meetings against the Oilers so motivation was sky-high. Now the shoe is on the other foot as Edmonton is playing with revenge, noting that it has gone a perfect 5-0 in that situation in this particular series going back to 2018. Take Edmonton (5*). |
|||||||
05-04-22 | Blues v. Wild -127 | Top | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 19 m | Show |
Central Division First Round Game of the Year. My selection is on Minnesota over St. Louis at 9:30 pm et on Wednesday. The Wild got caught in the trap of thinking that home ice advantage alone would carry them in the opener of this series - after all, they did go an incredible 31-10 here in the 'State of Hockey' during the regular season. The Blues had other ideas, cruising to a 4-0 victory - their sixth consecutive win against the Wild. I look for Minnesota to answer back in Game 2 on Wednesday. Note that the Blues are just 6-14 when playing on the road after scoring 3+ goals in four consecutive games over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscored by 0.4 goals on average in that situation. The Wild meanwhile are a perfect 8-0 when coming off a home loss by 2+ goals this season, averaging 4.6 goals per game and outscoring opponents by 2.2 goals on average in that spot. While the Wild certainly went through a rough stretch from mid-February to mid-March, they did manage to turn it around down the stretch and despite the disappointment of that lopsided Game 1 defeat, not to mention the fact that St. Louis has owned this series this season, I don't expect them to roll over on home ice. Take Minnesota (10*). |
|||||||
05-03-22 | Capitals v. Panthers OVER 6.5 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -117 | 13 h 8 m | Show |
Eastern Conference First Round Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between Washington and Florida at 7:30 pm et on Tuesday. You would have to go back nine meetings in this series to find the last time a game finished with fewer than seven total goals. I don't expect that to change in the opener of this first round series on Tuesday. The Capitals struggled offensively down the stretch but they were also without Alex Ovechkin for their last three contests. He is expected back in the lineup for Tuesday's contest. A bigger concern than the Caps recent offensive woes is their situation defensively and in goal. They allowed at least four goals in six of their last nine games down the stretch. Both Ilya Samsonov and Vitek Vanecek struggled between the pipes. Now they have to face a Panthers squad that averaged 4.7 goals per game on home ice during the regular season. Florida will give its share of goals up as well though. The Panthers have allowed 2.9 goals per game at home this season and will have to contend with a Caps offense that averages an impressive 3.5 goals per contest on the road. The most recent meeting between these two teams went Florida's way by a 5-4 score. That's notable as the 'over' is a perfect 8-0 with the Capitals seeking revenge for a loss in which their opponent scored 5+ goals this season, resulting in an average total of 7.7 goals. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
05-02-22 | Lightning v. Maple Leafs -120 | Top | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show |
Atlantic Division Game of the Month. My selection is on Toronto over Tampa Bay at 7:30 pm et on Monday. We'll fade the two-time defending Stanley Cup champion Lightning in their playoff opener on Monday. The Leafs past playoff failures have been well-documented. While they certainly draw a tough opening round opponent in the Lightning, I do feel this is their best team in a number of years - one capable of making a deep playoff run. That's a story for another day, however. Here, I expect the Leafs to get this series off on the right foot, noting that the Lightning have shown some cracks in their armor this season, particularly down the stretch. Tampa Bay checks in having allowed 3.9 goals per game, outscored by an average margin of 0.6 goals, when playing on the road after winning six or seven of their last eight games this season (17-game sample size), as is the case here. The Leafs rested most of their stars but still notched a regular season-ending 5-2 win over the Bruins. That's notable as they've averaged 4.5 goals per game while outscoring opponents by 1.4 goals on average after scoring 5+ goals in their previous game this season (28-game sample size), which is the situation here. Also of note, Leafs goaltender Jack Campbell, who had an extended rough stretch during the regular season, bounced back to post a .941 save percentage over his last five starts with the Leafs going 4-1 in those games. Take Toronto (10*). |
|||||||
05-01-22 | Seattle Kraken v. Jets -176 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 10 m | Show | |
My selection is on Winnipeg over Seattle at 2 pm et on Sunday. I'll keep it simple with my analysis of this odd regular season finale in Winnipeg - a make-up game from earlier in the season. The Kraken won their home finale in shutout fashion against San Jose. Now they hit the road one more time, where they've gone a woeful 11-29, outscored by 0.8 goals on average this season. The Jets have had a disappointing season but do check in 22-18 on home ice, where they've outscored opponents by 0.6 goals on average. They also enter this game with a chance to wrap up the season on a four-game winning streak, giving them something to feel good about heading to the golf course. Take Winnipeg (5*). |
|||||||
04-29-22 | Ducks v. Stars -220 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 3 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas over Anaheim at 8:35 pm et on Friday. The Stars inexplicably let one slip away in an overtime loss against the lowly Coyotes two nights ago, on home ice no less. With the first Wild Card spot hanging in the balance (that position avoids a first round date with the Avalanche) I look for Dallas to bounce back on Friday night. The Stars remain a terrific home team on the season, having gone 26-14 while averaging 3.2 goals per game and outscoring opponents by 0.4 goals on average in the host role. The Ducks meanwhile are coming off a lopsided win in San Jose but remain a woeful 14-26 away from home this season, outscored by 0.7 goals on average along the way. Note that you would have to go all the way back to February 19th and 22nd to find the last time Anaheim managed to win consecutive games. Here, we'll also note that the Ducks are 8-33 when seeking revenge for consecutive losses against an opponent over the last two seasons, as is the case here, outscored by an average margin of 1.4 goals in that situation. Dallas on the other hand has averaged 3.8 goals per game and outscored opponents by 0.4 goals on average after losing four or five of its last six games this season (17-game sample size), which is the situation here. Take Dallas (5*). |
|||||||
04-29-22 | Blackhawks v. Sabres -118 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
My selection is on Buffalo over Chicago at 7:05 pm et on Friday. I'm not sure you'll find a team less motivated across the league than the Blackhawks on Friday night. Chicago is at the end of yet another disappointing campaign but does enter Friday's season finale in Buffalo off consecutive wins. I don't need to tell you that a late April Friday trip to Buffalo likely has the 'Hawks thinking more about the golf course than proceedings on the ice. The Sabres meanwhile are off a shutout loss in Boston last night but had previously won four games in a row. They certainly played their best hockey down the stretch and check in 5-2 when coming off a loss by 4+ goals against a division opponent this season, as is the case here, and also 5-1 when following a loss by 5+ goals against any opponent over the same stretch. In the latter situation they've outscored opponents by an average margin of 1.6 goals. Chicago is just 3-12 when coming off two wins in its last three games this season, which is the situation here, outscored by 1.3 goals on average in that spot. Worse still, the 'Hawks check in 5-18 when coming off a game in which they scored 4+ goals this season, as is the case here. Take Buffalo (8*). |
|||||||
04-28-22 | Capitals -130 v. Islanders | Top | 1-5 | Loss | -130 | 11 h 1 m | Show |
NHL Division Game of the Month. My selection is on Washington over New York at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. The Isles got the better of the Caps two nights ago in Washington, skating to a 4-1 win. While Washington's first round playoff matchup is set (it will face Florida), I do think the Caps have some motivation to snap their brief two-game skid before wrapping up the regular season against the Rangers tomorrow night. Here, we'll note that Washington is 28-11 after losing two of its last three games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.9 goals in that situation. The Isles are just 9-16 after a win by 2+ goals this season, as is the case here, averaging just 2.5 goals and outscored by 0.4 goals on average in that spot. New York is just 13-23 when coming off a victory of any kind this season while the Caps are 25-14 on the road, outscoring opponents by 0.8 goals on average. Take Washington (10*). |
|||||||
04-27-22 | Flyers v. Jets -176 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
My selection is on Winnipeg over Philadelphia at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. The Jets returned home from a brutal late season road trip to defeat the Avalanche 4-1 on Sunday. Despite the down season, they're actually 20-18 on home ice, where they've outscored opponents by 0.5 goals on average. The Flyers meanwhile, check in a woeful 11-29 on the road, having been outscored by an average margin of 1.3 goals. After a brief two-game winning streak that included a victory over the rival Penguins on Sunday, Philadelphia dropped a 3-1 decision in Chicago on Monday. Here, we'll note that the Flyers are a woeful 2-13 when playing their third game in four nights this season, outscored by 1.7 goals on average in that spot. The Flyers did take the first meeting between these two teams this season by a 3-1 score in Philadelphia on February 1st. Note that the Jets are 17-9 when seeking revenge for a road loss by 2+ goals over the last three seasons, averaging 3.5 goals per game and outscoring opponents by 0.9 goals on average in that situation. Take Winnipeg (5*). |
|||||||
04-26-22 | Blue Jackets v. Lightning UNDER 7 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 42 m | Show |
NHL Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Columbus and Tampa Bay at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. Now that we've got the starting goaltender matchup we wanted, we'll step in with a play on the 'under' in Tampa on Tuesday. The Lightning are coming off six straight 'over' results. They've scored a whopping 22 goals over their last three games alone - their highest such scoring run of the season. I expect them to 'manage' this game, however, noting that they recently suffered a couple of late season injury scares with Anthony Cirelli and Mikhail Sergachev (Cirelli is expected back in the lineup on Tuesday while Sergachev remains questionable) and will close out the season with games on consecutive nights beginning on Thursday in Columbus. I mentioned the goaltending matchup in this one - it's certainly notable when you consider how well Elvis Merzlikins has been playing for the Blue Jackets. He has posted a .937 save percentage over his last four starts with the 'under' cashing in three of those four games. Also note that the 'under' is 4-1 in his five career starts against the Lightning. Columbus scored five goals in its most recent game - a 5-2 victory over Edmonton on Friday. Prior to that the Jackets had scored just eight goals over their last four games combined. The 'under' checks in 10-2 with the Jackets playing on the road off a win by 3+ goals over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of 4.5 goals. While the lone previous matchup between these two teams this season totalled nine goals, that came in Columbus. The two teams have met four times in Tampa going back to the start of last season with those contests reaching just 4, 5, 4 and 7 goals. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
04-24-22 | Wild v. Predators UNDER 6.5 | Top | 5-4 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 40 m | Show |
NHL Division Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Minnesota and Nashville at 8:05 pm et on Sunday. Both of these teams are coming off high-scoring games. I look for a different story to unfold on Sunday, however. Minnesota rolled to a 6-3 win over the expansion Kraken on Friday night. Seattle seemingly woke a sleeping giant in that contest, jumping out to an early 2-0 lead before the Wild exploded for six goals. That was Minnesota's second straight game scoring six goals. Note, however, that both of those contests came at home. The Wild have scored three goals or less in four of their last five road games. They've yet to score more than two goals in a game against the Predators this season, losing all three previous matchups. Minnesota is currently missing a number of key contributors due to injury, including Matt Dumba, Mats Zuccarello, Marcus Foligno and Jordan Greenway. The Preds will be looking to bounce back from a 6-2 drubbing in Tampa last night. The good news is, Nashville has been much better defensively here at home, allowing just 2.6 goals per game this season. Note that the Wild average just 2.8 goals per game with an average total of 5.0 goals when playing on the road after scoring 4+ goals in consecutive games this season, as is the case here. The 'under' has cashed at a 10-3 clip in that situation. Similarly, the 'under' is 17-7 with the Wild playing on the road after consecutive games totalling 7+ goals, which is also the situation here, leading to an average total of 5.5 goals in that spot. Finally, I'll point out that the 'under' has cashed in 21 of the last 35 meetings here in Music City, with an average total of just 5.1 goals. Take the under (10*). |

04-23-22 | Seattle Kraken v. Stars -250 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 6 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas over Seattle at 8:05 pm et on Saturday. It's really only at this point of the season that we tend to reach into this price range to back a moneyline in the NHL but in this particular case it's warranted. In fact, I believe the line could be even higher. The Kraken seemingly ran out of gas last night in Minnesota, jumping ahead 2-0 before falling by a 6-3 score. Now they're playing their third game in four nights, in three different cities, and quite simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. The Stars are back home after an 0-3 western Canadian road trip. Note that they're 24-13 on home ice this season and check in averaging 3.9 goals per game when coming off four or five losses in their last six games this season, as is the case here. The Kraken average only 2.6 goals per game on the road this season, where they've won just 11 of 38 games. Also note that the Stars are 33-20 when seeking revenge for a loss by 2+ goals against an opponent over the last three seasons, which is the situation here, outscoring the opposition by 0.3 goals on average in that spot. The Kraken skated to a 4-1 home win over the Stars on April 3rd but it's certainly worth noting that they caught the Stars in a favorable spot on that night as Dallas was playing the final leg of a four-game in six-night road trip - one in which it had won the first three games. It's a much different story here. Take Dallas (4*). |
|||||||
04-22-22 | Capitals v. Coyotes UNDER 6.5 | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 15 h 55 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Washington and Arizona at 10:35 pm et on Friday. The Coyotes have now seen each of their last six games go 'over' the total. I look for a different story to unfold on Friday, however. For the Capitals, this is a game they might just look to 'manage' as they have a difficult stretch coming up to end the season, beginning a stretch of four games in six nights on Sunday at home against Toronto. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 10-1 with the Coyotes coming off consecutive games in which both teams scored 3+ goals, as is the case here, leading to an average total of just 4.0 goals in that spot. The 'under' is also 9-2 with Arizona coming off consecutive games in which it scored 3+ goals this season, resulting in an average total of 4.8 goals. While the Coyotes are by no means a stout defensive team, they have given up just 2.1 goals per game with an average total of only 4.7 goals when coming off a home loss against a division opponent this season (seven-game sample size), which is the situation here. Note that these two teams have met once previously this season, with the Capitals skating to a 2-0 home victory back in October. Take the under (9*). |
|||||||
04-22-22 | Senators v. Blue Jackets UNDER 6.5 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show |
Eastern Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Ottawa and Columbus at 7:05 pm et on Friday. We won with the 'under' the last time these two teams met in March and I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. You would have to go back four games to find the last time the Senators posted an 'under' result. I expect that to change here. Note that Ottawa is averaging a woeful 1.3 goals per game with an average total of 5.3 goals when coming off a road game in which both teams scored 3+ goals this season, as is the case following Tuesday's 4-3 win in Vancouver. The 'under' is 20-7 with the Sens coming off a game that totalled 7+ goals this season, leading to an average total of just 5.2 goals. Meanwhile, the Blue Jackets have posted a 3-11 o/u record when playing at home off a one-goal loss over the last three seasons, which is the situation here, resulting in an average total of 4.4 goals in that spot. We're likely to see a matchup between Anton Forsberg and Elvis Merzlikins in goal in this one and both have been playing well with Forsberg posting a .919 save percentage over his last four games and Merzlikins having recorded a .920 save percentage over the same stretch. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
04-21-22 | Blackhawks v. Kings -250 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 15 h 36 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles over Chicago at 10:35 pm et on Thursday. While we're being asked to lay a heavy price to back the Kings here, I believe it could be even higher. Chicago checks in off an overtime win in Arizona last night. Of course, road wins have been hard to come by for the Blackhawks this season as they're just 14-24 away from home, where they've been outscored by an average margin of 0.7 goals. Worse still, when on the road off a win this season, they've allowed an average of 3.9 goals per contest and have been outscored by 1.0 goals on average. The Kings come into this game off consecutive wins and just skated to a 5-2 victory in Chicago back on April 12th. As their playoff push continues, look for the Kings to grab a much-needed two points on Thursday night. Take Los Angeles (4*). |

04-19-22 | Senators v. Canucks UNDER 6.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 7 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Ottawa and Vancouver at 10:05 pm et on Tuesday. We've gone to the well a number of times when it comes to Senators 'unders' this season and we'll do so again here. Both teams played last night. The Senators dropped a 4-2 decision in Seattle while the Canucks rolled to a 6-2 victory over Dallas to keep their playoff hopes alive. This is a game I look for Vancouver to 'manage' in a sense. Keep in mind, the Canucks will begin a stretch of five games in nine nights (in four different cities) to close out the regular season on Thursday night in Minnesota. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 19-10 with the Sens coming off a game in which they allowed 4+ goals this season, resulting in an average total of just 5.7 goals. The 'under' is also 13-5 with Ottawa playing on the road off consecutive losses this season, as is the case here, leading to an average total of 5.6 goals. While the Canucks come in off five consecutive 'over' results, their home games are still averaging just 5.8 total goals this season. You would have to go back five meetings between these two teams here in Vancouver to find the last time a game totalled more than six goals. Take the under (7*). |

04-18-22 | Hurricanes v. Coyotes OVER 6 | Top | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 14 h 32 m | Show |
Non-Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Carolina and Arizona at 10:05 pm et on Monday. I'm not sure whether the Coyotes are actually 'tanking' or if the talent level simply isn't there to compete on a nightly basis (especially given their injury situation). Regardless, opponents are scoring against them at will and they're likely going to be in tough again on Monday as they host a Hurricanes squad looking to bounce back from consecutive losses. Note that Carolina's road games have been considerably higher-scoring than their home games this season, averaging 6.3 total goals per contest with the 'over' cashing at a 20-14-3 clip. In Canes road games with the total set at 6.0 or higher, we've seen an average total of 6.9 goals scored. Also note that the 'over' is 7-1 with the Coyotes playing at home after scoring two goals or less in consecutive games this season, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 7.7 goals scored. Both teams are in tough between the pipes right now. Frederik Andersen had to leave the Canes last game due to a lower body injury. Antti Raanta has performed well at times this season but has seemingly hit the wall lately, posting an .873 save percentage over his last four games. Meanwhile, Coyotes goaltender Karel Vejmelka has had to shoulder far too much of the load in his rookie season, making 44 starts. Over his last four games he has recorded a dismal .817 save percentage with the 'over' cashing at a 3-0-1 clip. Take the over (10*). |

04-16-22 | Wild v. Blues UNDER 6.5 | 5-6 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 12 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Minnesota and St. Louis at 3:05 pm et on Saturday. We've seen three straight meetings between these two teams go 'over' the total but I look for a different story to unfold on Saturday. Note that the 'under' is a perfect 5-0 with St. Louis playing at home off a win by 4+ goals this season with those contests totalling an average of just 4.2 goals. The Blues check in playing solid defensive hockey, having allowed two goals or less in five of their last six games. The Wild have given up three goals or less in five of their last seven contests and come in off back-to-back 'under' results. While they have scored a whopping 14 goals over their last three games, they'll be up against a Blues squad that allows only 2.6 goals per game on home ice this season. Take the under (6*). |

04-14-22 | Red Wings v. Hurricanes UNDER 6.5 | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 8 h 24 m | Show |
NHL Eastern Conference Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Detroit and Carolina at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. The Wings aren't scoring with any consistency right now, having found the back of the net 2, 1, 2, 4, 2, 2, 5, 3, 4 and 1 goal over their last 10 games. In a game the Hurricanes will be looking to 'manage' before heading out on the road for two games in three nights beginning Saturday in Colorado, I look for goals to come at a premium. The Canes have actually seen the 'over' cash in each of their last two games after the 'under' had gone 3-1-1 over their previous five contests. They've been incredibly stingy here at home this season, allowing just 2.1 goals per game. Better still, they've given up just 1.4 goals per contest with an average total of only 4.9 goals when playing at home off two or more consecutive wins this season (14-game sample size), as is the case here. Detroit averages just 2.4 goals per game away from home this season with that number dropping to 2.1 when coming off a loss, which is the situation here. Additionally, the 'under' is 20-11 with Carolina playing at home after scoring 3+ goals in consecutive games over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of only 5.3 goals. We're able to play this one at 6.5 thanks to the previous two meetings between these two teams this season reaching 8 and 7 goals. The 'under' has still cashed in 15 of the last 25 meetings in this series. Take the under (10*). |

04-12-22 | Flyers +1.5 v. Capitals | Top | 2-9 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 58 m | Show |
Eastern Conference Puck-Line Game of the Year. My selection is on Philadelphia +1.5 goals over Washington at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. We cashed a big ticket fading the Flyers in their most recent game as they dropped a 5-3 decision at home against the Ducks on Saturday (in a game they led 2-0). Here, I won't hesitate to go the other way and back Philadelphia (on the puck-line) as it travels to Washington to face the division rival Capitals. The Flyers haven't quit on the season. They've actually won their last two road games, including an impressive victory over the Rangers in New York. There are certain games left on their schedule that I don't think they'll get up for, and this is one of them. Washington enters this game off three straight wins. The Caps are just 1-5 when playing at home off consecutive wins by 2+ goals this season, as is the case here, outscored by 1.5 goals on average in that situation. They've also gone 3-8 when at home after scoring 3+ goals in three consecutive games this season, which is also the situation here, outscored by 0.6 goals on average in that spot. Philadelphia meanwhile has gone 13-8 when playing on the road after losing five or six of its last seven games over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by 0.1 goals on average in that situation. It's certainly worth noting that the Caps are actually a losing team on home ice this season, having gone 18-20 with an even 3.1-3.1 scoring average. As I mentioned, I expect the Flyers to get up for this one, noting that this has been a tight series all season with Philadelphia securing a pair of one-goal victories and Washington winning the other contest by a 5-3 score (on the road). Factoring in the +1.5 puck-line, the Flyers are 4-1 in the last five meetings in the series. Take Philadelphia +1.5 goals (10*). |

04-10-22 | Sabres v. Lightning UNDER 6.5 | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Buffalo and Tampa Bay at 5:05 pm et on Sunday. Most are expecting the Lightning to go off offensively in this game as they look to snap their four-game losing streak against the lowly Sabres. There's no guarantee that will happen though as the Bolts have scored just six goals over their last three games combined and fewer than four goals in 10 of their last 15 contests. The Sabres have quietly been playing competitive hockey for weeks now. Their last loss by more than two goals came back on March 17th against Edmonton. We will note that this isn't a favorable spot for Buffalo, however, noting that it has averaged just 2.2 goals per game when seeking revenge for a loss by 2+ goals against an opponent over the last two seasons, as is the case here, with that situation producing an average total of only 5.8 goals (44-game sample size). Meanwhile, the Lightning have allowed just 2.2 goals per game when coming off a game in which they scored one goal or less, which is also the situation here, leading to an average total of 5.7 goals (35-game sample size). Take the under (8*). |

04-09-22 | Avalanche v. Oilers UNDER 6.5 | 2-1 | Win | 104 | 14 h 32 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Colorado and Edmonton at 10:05 pm et on Saturday. While the Avalanche are known for their explosive offense and coming off consecutive 'over' results to open this road trip, scoring 11 goals in the process, it may surprise you to know that they haven't posted three consecutive 'over' results since March 5th to 8th. Prior to that you would have to go back to the first half of January to find the last time they reeled off three or more consecutive 'overs'. The Oilers have seen their last two games stay 'under' the total, allowing a grand total of just three goals in those two games. I don't think we'll see either team give an inch here as they try to keep their winning streaks intact (the Avs have won five straight and the Oilers have won six in a row). Note that the lone previous meeting between these two teams totalled just five goals with Colorado skating to a 3-2 win on home ice last month. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 31-18 with the Avs coming off a one-goal victory over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of 5.6 goals while the Oilers have posted a long-term 12-24 o/u mark when coming off five or more consecutive wins, as is the case here. Take the under (6*). |

04-09-22 | Ducks -102 v. Flyers | Top | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 14 m | Show |
NHL Non-Conference Game of the Year. My selection is on Anaheim over Philadelphia at 7:35 pm et on Saturday. The Flyers were in a favorable spot two nights ago in Columbus, seeking quick revenge in the back half of a home-and-home series against the Blue Jackets. It's a different story here, even if Philadelphia is once again in a 'revenge' spot. These two teams haven't squared off since back in the first week of January - not exactly a game that is fresh in either team's mind at the end of a long, trying season for both. The Ducks check into this game off an unsuccessful two-game homestand that saw them drop games to the Oilers and Flames. A step down in competition should help their cause here. Note that Anaheim has allowed just 2.0 goals per game, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.0 goal when coming off 16 or more losses in their last 20 games over the last two seasons (six-game sample size), as is the case here. The Flyers check in a woeful 4-18 when coming off a game against a divisional opponent this season, outscored by 1.7 goals on average in that spot. Worse still, they're winless at 0-6 when coming off a victory over a division foe, which is also the case here, outscored by an ugly 2.5-goal margin on average in that situation. Additionally, Philadelphia is 1-10 after giving up one goal or less in its previous game this season, outscored by an average margin of 2.0 goals in that spot. That strong defensive effort on Thursday was a recent anomaly for the Flyers given prior to that they had allowed 6, 5, 4, 6, 3 and 4 goals over their last six contests. For the Ducks, this might be the lone winnable game on their current road trip, which will continue with stops in Carolina, Florida and Tampa. Take Anaheim (10*). |

04-08-22 | Islanders v. Hurricanes -172 | 2-1 | Loss | -172 | 8 h 37 m | Show | |
My selection is on Carolina over New York at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Hurricanes bring some positive momentum into Friday's matchup with the Islanders after rallying for a 5-3 win over the Sabres last night. That's notable as they've allowed just 1.9 goals per game and outscored opponents by an average of 1.5 goals when playing at home off a win over the last three seasons (42-game sample size). The Isles, meanwhile, have averaged a woeful 1.8 goals per game and have been outscored by 0.9 goals on average when playing on the road seeking revenge for a loss by 3+ goals against an opponent over the last three seasons (19-game sample size), which is the situation here as well. You would have to go back six meetings here in Carolina to find the last time the Islanders defeated the Hurricanes. Take Carolina (5*). |
|||||||
04-07-22 | Flyers v. Blue Jackets OVER 6.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -110 | 9 h 38 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Philadelphia and Columbus at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. Tuesday's 4-2 win in Philadelphia ended a stretch of seven straight games in which Columbus was held to three goals or less. Noting that the Flyers have been equally bad defensively on the road (allowing 3.6 goals per game this season) there's reason to believe the Blue Jackets can follow that performance up with another relatively high-scoring effort here. The Flyers have little reason to get up for most games as they're simply playing out the string at this point, but perhaps a quick revenge spot against the Blue Jackets gets their juices flowing here. Note that Philadelphia has actually shown some life on the road recently, scoring five goals in St. Louis, four in Nashville and four in New York (against the Rangers) in the last three weeks alone. Philadelphia checks in averaging 3.2 goals per game after losing four or five of their last six games over the last two seasons, as is the case here. The Blue Jackets, meanwhile, have allowed a whopping 4.4 goals per contest when playing at home off a win over a division opponent over the same time frame, which is also the situation here. The 'over' is a perfect 7-0 with Columbus coming off a division win this season, with that spot producing an average total of 7.7 goals. We've also seen the 'over' go 15-6 with the Jackets following an 'under' result this season, leading to an average total of 7.0 goals in that spot. Here, Columbus actually checks in off consecutive 'under' results. Note that it hasn't posted three straight 'unders' since October 16th-21st - the first week of the season. Philadelphia hasn't seen the 'under' cash in consecutive games since March 18th and 20th. Take the over (8*). |

04-06-22 | Lightning v. Capitals UNDER 6 | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 15 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Tampa Bay and Washington at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. Both of these teams enter this game off consecutive losses with each team allowing a whopping 11 goals over those two contests. Needless to say, both sides will be looking to tighten things up on Wednesday night. It's not as if this has been a high-scoring series this season. The two previous meetings have produced a grand total of just eight goals including a 2-1 result in favor of the Lightning in the lone previous matchup here in Washington. While the Caps average 3.1 goals per game here on home ice this season, that average drops to 2.6 when coming off consecutive 'over' results (13-game sample size), as is the case here. As for the Lightning, they've averaged just 2.1 goals per game when coming off four or more consecutive 'over' results over the last three seasons (10-game sample size), which is also the situation they're in here. Additionally, the 'under' checks in 19-7 with the Bolts playing on the road after losing two of their last three contests, with an average total of just 5.0 goals in that spot. The Caps on the other hand have posted a long-term 35-58 o/u mark when coming off a loss by 4+ goals. Take the under (8*). |

04-05-22 | Islanders v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Dallas at 8:35 pm et on Tuesday. The Islanders and Stars have been two of my most preferred 'under' teams in the NHL in recent seasons. While I haven't gone to that well too many times this season, I do see fit to do so as the two teams match up in Dallas on Tuesday night. The Isles have scored 16 goals over their last four games, finding the back of the net 3+ times in all four contests. Note, however, that the 'under' is 14-5 with New York playing on the road after scoring three or more goals in three or more consecutive games over the last two seasons with that spot producing an average total of just 4.5 goals. In 40 road games when following up a division game over the last two seasons, as is the case here off Sunday's 4-3 win over the Devils, the Isles have averaged just 2.2 goals per game with the 'under' going 27-13 along the way. The Stars average 3.0 goals per game overall this season but that average drops to 2.5 with the 'under' cashing in 20 of 31 games when coming off four or five wins in their last six games this season, as is the case here. Here, Dallas will be going up against a red hot Isles goaltending tandem with Ilya Sorokin having posted a .944 save percentage over his last four starts (note that he remains questionable after missing the Isles last four games) and Semyon Varlamov recording a terrific .941 save percentage over his last four starts. Take the under (7*). |

04-05-22 | Rangers v. Devils OVER 6 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -110 | 11 h 26 m | Show |
NHL Metropolitan Division Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between New York and New Jersey at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. This series has been a high-scoring one in recent years with 11 of the last 15 meetings going 'over' the total. With the Devils having seen eight of their last 10 contests sail 'over' the total and the Rangers struggling to keep the puck out of their own net lately, I believe we're in for another relatively high-scoring affair on Tuesday night in Newark. Of course, the Rangers will not only be looking to snap a two-game losing streak on Tuesday but they'll also be out for revenge after dropping a 7-4 decision here (in a game they led 2-0) back on March 22nd. Note that while the Rangers average 3.1 goals per game this season, that scoring average jumps to 3.9 when seeking revenge for a loss against an opponent as a road favorite (nine-game sample size). The Devils should afford the Blueshirts plenty of scoring opportunities, noting that New Jersey has allowed 6, 6, 6, 4, 3, 4, 2, 8, 7 and 4 goals over its last 10 games. Without question we've seen the Devils sacrifice defense for offense down the stretch, scoring three goals or more in eight of their last 10 contests and six or more twice over their last seven games. Going all the way back to February 28th, the Devils have fired 30+ shots on goal in nine straight games here at home. The Rangers have been a solid defensive team this season but that hasn't been the case lately. They check in having given up 25 goals over their last seven contests. Goaltender Igor Shesterkin has posted a disappointing .899 save percentage over his last four starts and has allowed 17 goals over his last five games between the pipes. Backup Alex Georgiev has of course struggled for much of the season, particularly on the road where he owns a .887 save percentage. Devils games have seen an average total of 6.8 goals this season but that average jumps to 7.4 when they come off eight or more losses in their last 10 games, as is the case here, with the 'over' cashing at an 11-4 clip in that situation. Take the over (10*). |

04-04-22 | Maple Leafs v. Lightning UNDER 6.5 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 10 m | Show |
Atlantic Division Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Toronto and Tampa Bay at 7:35 pm et on Monday. The Lightning are coming off a rare home loss on Saturday night, falling by a 5-4 score in a shootout against Montreal. Tampa Bay has now seen the 'over' cash in three straight games and has scored 4+ goals in four consecutive games - its longest such streak of the season. Contrary to popular belief, that's not really the style the Lightning like to employ. While they can score with the best of them, they prefer to play a 'crash and bang' style of hockey to wear down the opposition. It's worth noting that they gave regular starting goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy the night off on Saturday. He's been rounding back into form lately, with the Bolts allowing just 1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 1, 3 and 2 goals in his last eight starts (the 'under' went 6-2 in those eight contests). Here, we'll note that Tampa has seen the 'under' cash at a 7-1 clip when coming off three or more consecutive 'over' results this season, with that situation leading to an average total of just 4.9 goals. The Leafs are red hot offensively right now, scoring 5+ goals in each of their last four contests. They average an impressive 3.9 goals per game on the road this season but that number drops to 2.7 when coming off four consecutive games in which they scored 4+ goals. On the flip side, Tampa has allowed just 2.0 goals per game when playing at home off a loss over the last two seasons (22-game sample size). The Bolts took the most recent meeting between these two teams by a 5-3 score in Toronto and that's notable as the 'under' has gone 17-8 with the Leafs on the road seeking revenge for a loss where their opponent scored 4+ goals over the last two seasons with that spot producing an average total of only 5.5 goals. Toronto welcomed back goaltender Jack Campbell on Saturday in Philadelphia and after a shaky first period in which he allowed two goals on 11 shots, he stopped 20 of 21 shots on goal the rest of the way in a 6-3 Leafs victory. While the last meeting between these two teams was high-scoring as I mentioned, the 'under' has actually cashed in 24 of the last 38 matchups in the series. Interestingly, the two previous matchups this season saw closing totals of just 5.5 so we're dealing with a considerably higher total here. With the Leafs and Bolts currently tied for second place in the Atlantic Division, this game takes on added importance and I believe that lends itself to a lower-scoring affair. Take the under (10*). |

04-03-22 | Islanders v. Devils +1.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 29 m | Show | |
My selection is on New Jersey +1.5 goals over New York at 4:05 pm et on Sunday. The Islanders are coming off a stunning 3-0 win over the Rangers at MSG on Friday - their third consecutive win. Here, I look for them to stumble, however, as they head to Newark to face the Devils on Sunday afternoon. New Jersey is coming off a wild 7-6 loss at home against Florida yesterday. The Devils have been getting lit up defensively, allowing 15 goals over their last two contests, but there's reason to believe they can hold the Isles in check here. Note that New York has averaged 2.1 goals per game and has been outscored by 0.2 goals on average when playing on the road after scoring 3+ goals in three straight games over the last two seasons (18-game sample size), as is the case here. The Isles are also a woeful 4-13 when playing on the road after allowing two goals or less in consecutive games over the last two seasons, outscored by a whopping average margin of 1.4 goals in that situation. While the Isles have taken two of three previous meetings between these two teams this season, the Devils have actually outscored them 8-7 overall. Take New Jersey +1.5 goals (6*). |

04-02-22 | Stars v. Sharks +1.5 | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 14 h 46 m | Show | |
My selection is on San Jose +1.5 goals over Dallas at 10:35 pm et on Saturday. We've successfully faded the Stars on the puck-line in each of their first two games on their current four-game road trip and I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play on Saturday. Keep in mind, the Stars average just 2.5 goals per game on the road this season, where they've been outscored by an average margin of 0.5 goals. You would have to go back five games to find the last time they posted a win by 2+ goals and they've accomplished that feat just once in their last 11 games overall. Note that Dallas checks in a woeful 1-9 when playing on the road after allowing two goals or less in consecutive games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, allowing 4.3 goals per game while being outscored by 2.4 goals on average in that situation. The Sharks, meanwhile, are 16-10 this season when coming off consecutive games in which they allowed 3+ goals this season, which is also the case here, outscoring opponents by 0.5 goals on average in that spot. Better still, San Jose is 10-3 when coming off consecutive losses by 2+ goals over the last two seasons, outscoring the opposition by an average margin of 0.7 goals in that situation. Take San Jose +1.5 goals (6*). |

NHL Revenge Game of the Month. My selection is on the Rangers over the Islanders at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Islanders are playing some of their best hockey of the season right now but the fact is, it's too little, too late. The Rangers come in playing well also, winners of four games in a row, scoring 18 goals in the process. The Blueshirts will have revenge in mind here after they dropped a 2-1 decision at home against the Isles back on March 17th. Note that the Isles are just 7-14 when coming off a win by two or more goals this season, as is the case here, outscored by 0.5 goals on average in that situation. Meanwhile, the Rangers are 13-4 when coming off a game in which they allowed 4+ goals, outscoring the opposition by 1.0 goal on average in that spot. Take the Rangers (10*). |

My selection is on Anaheim +1.5 goals over Dallas at 10:05 pm et on Thursday. We won with the Ducks on the puck-line in this same matchup two nights ago. While they did suffer their 10th consecutive loss in that game, they were certainly close to breaking their losing streak, leading the game 2-1 entering the third period before eventually falling by a 3-2 score. Despite the win, the Stars are still just 16-18 on the road this season, outscored by an average margin of 0.6 goals. The Ducks, meanwhile, are 16-19 on home ice, but have actually outscored their opponents by 0.1 goals on average. Also note that Dallas has been outscored by 0.5 goals on average after winning four or five of their last six games this season (28-game sample size), as is the case here. Take Anaheim +1.5 goals (6*). |

03-31-22 | Canadiens v. Hurricanes UNDER 6 | 0-4 | Win | 102 | 11 h 10 m | Show | |
NHL Eastern Conference Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Montreal and Carolina at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. The Canadiens allowed seven goals in Tuesday's loss in Florida but those type of defensive lapses haven't been nearly as commonplace since Martin St. Louis took over behind the bench. Here, I'm anticipating a lower-scoring affair as the Habs continue their southeastern road swing in Carolina. The Canes have seen the 'over' cash in four straight games and are coming off a 4-3 overtime loss in Tampa two nights ago. Note that the two previous meetings in this series this season totalled just five and four goals. The Canadiens check in sporting a 3-9 o/u record when on the road seeking revenge for a loss by 2+ goals against an opponent this season, which is the case here, resulting in an average total of 5.3 goals. Meanwhile, the Canes have seen the 'under' cash in all five games when playing their third game in four nights at home this season, with an average total of just 3.6 goals in that spot. The 'under' is also 11-3 with the Canes playing at home after scoring 3+ goals in five consecutive games over the last two seasons, which is the case here, leading to an average total of just 4.9 goals. Take the under (10*). |

My selection is on Anaheim +1.5 goals over Dallas at 10:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Ducks are reeling right now, losers of nine games in a row. They've been idle since suffering a 4-1 defeat in San Jose on Saturday and I look for them to finally come up with a bounce-back performance on Tuesday at home against Dallas. The Stars are off a loss of their own, falling by an identical 4-1 score on home ice against Vancouver on Saturday. Note that Dallas has averaged a woeful 1.6 goals per game when playing on the road after winning four or five of its last six games this season, outscored by 1.2 goals on average in that situation. The Ducks on the other hand average 3.4 goals per game and have been outscored by just 0.1 goals on average when playing at home after allowing 4+ goals in consecutive games this season. Better still, they've averaged 3.7 goals per game while outscoring opponents by 0.4 goals on average after giving up 4+ goals in three consecutive games this season. Take Anaheim +1.5 goals (6*). |

03-29-22 | Senators v. Predators UNDER 6.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 30 m | Show |
NHL Non-Conference Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'under' between Ottawa and Nashville at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. Both of these teams are coming off high-scoring games. The Senators have seen the 'over' cash in each of their last two contests while Nashville enters Tuesday's game riding a six-game 'over' streak. I'm expecting a different story to unfold on Tuesday, however, as Ottawa travels to Nashville. Note that the Sens average only 2.7 goals per game on the road this season, with the 'under' cashing at an 18-11-2 clip. The 'under' is an incredible 17-5 with the Sens coming off a game that totalled 7+ goals, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 5.0 goals. Meanwhile, the 'under' is 31-15 with the Predators playing at home off an 'over' result over the last three seasons, leading to an average total of just 5.3 goals in that spot. The 'under' is also a perfect 7-0 with the Preds playing at home after scoring 5+ goals in their previous game this season, resulting in an average total of only 3.9 goals. Take the under (10*). |

03-28-22 | Hurricanes v. Capitals +1.5 | 6-1 | Loss | -200 | 11 h 18 m | Show | |
My selection is on Washington +1.5 goals over Carolina at 7:05 pm et on Monday. I think the revenge angle might be a little too played up in this one, noting that the Hurricanes have dropped each of their three previous matchups against the Capitals this season. Keep in mind, Carolina is just 2-7 when seeking revenge for a loss against an opponent in which it allowed 4+ goals this season, as is the case here, outscored by 0.8 goals on average in that situation. The Caps meanwhile, check in 28-10 after giving up 3+ goals in three straight games over the last three seasons, averaging 3.7 goals and outscoring opponents by 1.0 goal on average in that spot. While Washington remains just 16-18 on home ice this season, it has actually outscored the opposition by 0.2 goals on average. While we're being asked to pay considerable juice to grab the insurance goal in this spot, I believe the price is warranted. Take Washington +1.5 goals (5*). |

03-26-22 | Canucks v. Stars OVER 5.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -125 | 8 h 21 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Vancouver and Dallas at 7:05 pm et on Saturday. The Canucks check into Saturday's game in Dallas off three straight 'under' results. They're certainly capable of bouncing back offensively, noting that they average just shy of 3.0 goals per game on the road this season with the 'over' cashing at a 19-14-1 clip. They'll likely face Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger on Saturday. He's had a fine season but has actually struggled lately, posting a .907 save percentage over his last four starts with the 'over' cashing in three of those four contests. Of course, Dallas is rolling right now, having won three games in a row, scoring 12 goals along the way. The Stars have seen the 'over' cash in each of their last two games and they've proven to be a streaky team in that regard this season, noting that the 'over' is 19-9 with Dallas coming off an 'over' result this season, resulting in an average total of 6.8 goals. I mentioned that the Canucks average just under 3.0 goals per game on the road this season. That average bumps up to 3.7 goals per contest when Vancouver plays on the road off an overtime loss this season (six-game sample size). That situation has produced an average total of 6.4 goals. Take the over (8*). |

03-25-22 | Capitals v. Sabres OVER 6 | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 58 m | Show |
My selection is on the 'over' between Washington and Buffalo at 7:05 pm et on Friday. NOTE: Both teams threw us a bit of a curveball, announcing Ilya Samsonov (Capitals) and Dustin Tokarski (Sabres) as the starting goaltenders tonight. A matchup between the two backup goaltenders obviously isn't the worst thing for us with an 'over' ticket, even though I did like the way we were set up with Vanecek vs. Anderson as noted below. The Capitals have gone from being red hot to losing consecutive games, scoring exactly two goals in each of those losses. This is an ideal bounce-back spot on the road against Buffalo, however, noting that Washington has scored 30 goals in its last eight meetings in this series and averages 3.9 goals per game when playing on the road after losing two of its last three games over the last two seasons, as is the case here. There's a good chance we'll see Vitek Vanecek in goal for the Caps here and that's notable as he has struggled lately, allowing 19 goals in his last six games. Of course Buffalo has been a mess between the pipes for most of the season. Craig Anderson likely gets the nod in goal on Friday. The veteran has allowed 11 goals over his last three games. Interestingly, the Sabres have averaged 3.6 goals per game when coming off an overtime win over the last three seasons (10-game sample size), as is the case here. Buffalo has quietly improved its scoring average to 2.9 goals per game here on home ice this season after finding the back of the net 12 times over its last three home contests. The last meeting between these two teams totalled just five goals back in December. Keep in mind, we haven't seen consecutive meetings in this series total fewer than six goals since 2017-18. Take the over (10*). |

03-24-22 | Canucks v. Wild -198 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
My selection is on Minnesota over Vancouver at 8:05 pm et on Thursday. We'll fade the Canucks off last night's stunning 3-1 win in Colorado. Keep in mind, Vancouver is just one game removed from losing at home against Buffalo. There really wasn't anything special about the Canucks performance in Colorado last night. The Avs quite simply looked flat. Here, the Canucks are unlikely to benefit from such a lifeless opponent as the Wild are making up for lost time, winners of three games in a row, outscoring the opposition 10-3 along the way. Minnesota has been a terrific positive momentum play, having gone a perfect 9-0 when playing at home after allowing two goals or less in consecutive games this season, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 2.3 goals in that situation. The Wild check in an incredible 21-4 when playing at home off a home win over the last two seasons, averaging 4.0 goals and outscoring the opposition by 1.6 goals on average in that spot. The Canucks, meanwhile, are 3-17 when playing the second of back-to-backs over the last two seasons, allowing 4.3 goals on average and outscored by an average margin of 2.0 goals in that situation. Take Minnesota (6*). |

03-23-22 | Devils v. Maple Leafs -1.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -121 | 7 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on Toronto -1.5 goals over New Jersey at 7:05 pm et on Wednesday. I expect to see a real sense of urgency from the Leafs on Wednesday given the fact they were recently tripped up in a few expected wins against league bottom-feeders (two losses against Buffalo and one against Arizona). Here they catch the Devils in a favorable spot noting that New Jersey is 0-7 when coming off a win by two goals or more against a division opponent this season, outscored by an average margin of 1.9 goals in that situation. When playing on the road after consecutive games that totalled 7+ goals, we've seen the Devils go a miserable 1-10, outscored by 2.4 goals on average in that spot. As for the Leafs, they've been excellent when returning home following a road game, going 14-1 in that spot while outscoring the opposition by 2.0 goals on average this season. Again, I expect to see a sense of urgency from the Leafs here after getting shelled 6-3 in Nashville on Saturday. Take Toronto -1.5 goals (8*). |
|||||||
03-22-22 | Rangers -145 v. Devils | 4-7 | Loss | -145 | 11 h 17 m | Show | |
My selection is on New York over New Jersey at 7:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Rangers just came up with an impressive sweep in Tampa and Carolina, on back-to-back nights no less, but it's all for not if they can't complete the perfect road trip with a win in New Jersey on Tuesday. New York has to feel pretty good about itself after bolstering its roster with a number of savvy pre-trade deadline moves. I expect that confidence to manifest itself on the ice on Tuesday as the Rangers face the reeling Devils before enjoying a couple of days off and then hosting the Penguins on Friday. Note that New York checks in 7-1 after scoring two goals or less in consecutive games this season, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by 1.5 goals on average in that situation. The Devils return home following a disastrous western Canadian road swing that saw them lose three consecutive games by identical 6-3 scores. Here, we'll note that New Jersey is a woeful 13-31 when playing at home after losing four or five of its last six games over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscored by 0.7 goals on average in that spot. Take New York (8*). |
|||||||
03-21-22 | Predators v. Ducks UNDER 6 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -110 | 13 h 25 m | Show |
NHL Western Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Nashville and Anaheim at 10:05 pm et on Monday. The Predators check in off consecutive 'over' results but I look for a different story to unfold as they head to Anaheim to face the Ducks on Monday. While Nashville averages 3.3 goals per game on the season, that number drops to 2.6 goals per game when it comes off a game in which it scored 5+ goals, as is the case here. The 'under' has gone 9-1 in that situation this season with an average total of just 4.4 goals. Better still, the 'under' is a perfect 9-0 when the Preds play on the road after scoring 6+ goals in their previous game over the last two seasons with that spot producing an average total of just 3.7 goals. We cashed with the 'under' in a similar situation last week as they followed up a 6-2 win in Minnesota with a 4-1 victory over Pittsburgh. As for Anaheim, it has been held to three goals or less in seven straight games, losing each of its last six contests. That's notable as the Ducks have seen the 'under' go 43-21 the last 64 times they've come off 5+ consecutive losses, with an average total of just 5.2 goals in that situation. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
03-20-22 | Stars +1.5 v. Capitals | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 39 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas +1.5 goals over Washington at 5:05 pm et on Sunday. The Stars check in off a 4-2 loss to the Islanders yesterday but I look for them to bounce back against the red hot Capitals on Sunday in Washington. The Caps have won four games in a row but are in a bit of a tough spot here, noting that they've gone just 5-10 when playing at home off a win this season, outscored by 0.3 goals on average in that situation. Worse still, they're 3-7 when playing at home after scoring 3+ goals in three straight games this season, as is the case here, outscored by 0.6 goals on average in that spot. Additionally, they're 0-5 when playing at home after scoring four or more goals in consecutive games, which is also the case here, allowing 4.0 goals on average while being outscored by an average of 1.6 goals in that spot. Dallas, meanwhile, is 9-2 when seeking revenge for a loss where their opponent scored 4+ goals this season, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by 1.0 goal on average along the way. Take Dallas +1.5 goals (6*). |
|||||||
03-19-22 | Blackhawks v. Wild OVER 6 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -125 | 19 h 1 m | Show |
Central Division Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Chicago and Minnesota at 2:05 pm et on Saturday. The Blackhawks are coming off a low-scoring game against the Bruins last time out but I expect a different story to unfold as they head to Minnesota to face the division-rival Wild on Saturday afternoon. Note that the Wild took the most recent meeting between these two teams by a 5-0 score in Chicago back on February 2nd. That's notable as the Blackhawks have averaged 3.4 goals per game when playing on the road seeking revenge for a loss against an opponent in which they scored one goal or less over the last three seasons. Better still, they average 3.5 goals per game when playing on the road seeking revenge for three straight losses against an opponent over the last three seasons, as is the case here. Also of note, the 'over' is 26-14 with Chicago coming off a game in which four or fewer total goals were scored over the last three seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 6.7 goals. The Wild have seen the 'over' go 15-2 when coming off a home win this season, producing an average total of 7.8 goals in that situation. Both teams have had issues between the pipes lately. Blackhawks regular starter Marc-Andre Fleury has posted an .896 save percentage over his last four starts while the Wild haven't gotten much from Cam Talbot or Kaapo Kahkonen, with that duo posting .887 and .908 save percentages respectively over their last four games. Take the over (10*). |
|||||||
03-18-22 | Capitals v. Hurricanes -150 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -150 | 11 h 45 m | Show |
NHL Revenge Game of the Month. My selection is on Carolina over Washington at 7:05 pm et on Friday. Both of these teams played last night with the Capitals defeating the Blue Jackets 7-2 and the Hurricanes falling by a 3-2 score in Toronto. That makes it consecutive losses for the Canes but I like their chances of bouncing back here, as they look to earn their first victory in three tries against the Caps this season. Note that Washington is just 6-12 when coming off a road win this season, allowing 3.5 goals per game and outscored by an average margin of 0.3 goals in that situation. Worse still, the Caps check in 3-9 when coming off consecutive games in which they scored 4+ goals this season, as is the case here, allowing 3.7 goals per game and outscored by 0.5 goals on average in that spot. The Canes, meanwhile, have allowed just 1.9 goals per game when playing at home after losing two of their last three games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.8 goals on average in that situation (16-game sample size). Carolina has of course been terrific at home this season, going 23-6, outscoring opponents by 1.4 goals on average while allowing just 2.0 goals per game. Here, the Canes could benefit from facing struggling Caps goaltender Ilya Samsonov after Vitek Vanecek started the last three games, including last night's contest in Columbus. Samsonov owns an ugly .860 save percentage over his last four starts. Meanwhile, Canes backup Antti Raanta may get the start in this game. He's actually been their better goaltender lately, posting a terrific .945 save percentage over his last four starts with Carolina winning three of those contests. Take Carolina (10*). |

03-17-22 | Islanders v. Rangers UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 32 m | Show |
Metropolitan Division Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'under' between the Islanders and Rangers at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. Given the fact that these two teams have only met once previously this season it's easy to forget that this has been a low-scoring series recently with eight of the last nine meetings totalling five goals or less. I expect a similar story to unfold on Thursday. The 'over' has cashed in each of the Islanders last three games - matching their longest such streak of the season. On both previous occasions, their next contest stayed 'under' the total, reaching just three and four goals (both games involved a shutout result oddly enough). Note that the 'under' is 19-8 with the Isles coming off consecutive games that totalled 7+ goals this season, resulting in an average total of 4.6 goals in that situation. The 'under' is also 23-12 with the Isles playing on the road after scoring 3+ goals in consecutive games over the last two seasons, leading to an average total of 4.8 goals in that spot. The Rangers have scored 11 goals over their last two games - their highest scoring output over a two-game stretch this season. The 'under' is 20-11 with the Rangers coming off four or five wins over their last six games, leading to an average total of 5.4 goals. Better still, the 'under' is 9-2 with the Rangers coming off a home win in which they scored 4+ goals this season, as is the case here, with that situation producing an average total of 4.7 goals. Take the under (10*). |

03-16-22 | Blue Jackets v. Senators UNDER 6.5 | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 10 h 30 m | Show |
Eastern Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Columbus and Ottawa at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. We missed with the Senators on Monday night. In retrospect, the 'over' probably should have been an auto-play with Gustavsson starting in goal for Ottawa. Nevertheless, I won't hesitate to switch gears and back the 'under' as the Sens stay at home to host the Blue Jackets on Wednesday. Columbus is coming off a six-goal outburst against Vegas two nights ago but zooming out a little, it's clear that the Jackets have cooled off offensively following a terrific stretch in February. Over its last nine games, Columbus has averaged 2.9 goals per contest. Still, the 'over' has gone 5-1-1 in the Jackets last seven contests, which affords us a very generous total to work with on Wednesday. Speaking of 'over' results, the Sens have seen each of their last three games go 'over' the total. Here, we'll note that the 'under' has gone 16-4 with the Sens coming off a game that totalled seven goals or more this season, resulting in an average total of just 4.9 goals in that situation. The 'under' is a long-term 28-15 with the Sens playing at home with a total of 6.0 or higher over the last two seasons with an average total of just 5.6 goals scored in that spot. The Blue Jackets, meanwhile, have seen the 'under' cash at a 14-5 clip when playing on the road off consecutive wins over the last three seasons, leading to an average total of just 5.3 goals. We'll likely see Anton Forsberg back between the pipes for the Senators on Wednesday. The opposition has scored three goals or fewer in nine of his last 10 starts with the 'under' cashing in six of those games. Take the under (10*). |
|||||||
03-15-22 | Penguins v. Predators UNDER 6 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 56 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Pittsburgh and Nashville at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. Pittsburgh enters this game having seen the 'over' go 2-0-1 over its last three games while Nashville is fresh off consecutive high-scoring affairs over the weekend that totalled 11 and eight goals. Keep in mind, each of the Penguins last three games were played at home. Here on the road, they've posted a 13-15-1 o/u record this season with an average total of just 5.6 goals scored. Meanwhile, the Preds have seen the 'under' go a perfect 8-0 when playing at home after scoring six or more goals in their previous game over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of just 3.5 goals. When playing at home following a win this season, the Preds have posted a 4-11 o/u mark with an average total of only 5.3 goals scored. Take the under (6*). |

03-14-22 | Coyotes v. Senators -158 | 5-3 | Loss | -158 | 11 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on Ottawa over Arizona at 7:35 pm et on Monday. The Coyotes have picked up four of a possible six points through their first three games on this road trip but I look for them to stumble on Monday in Ottawa. After scoring 22 goals over a three-game stretch, the 'Yotes were held to just two in Boston on Saturday. It's worth noting that Arizona hasn't lost consecutive games since February 11th and 19th. It has gone nine games without dropping two in a row - by far its longest such streak of the season. I see it ending here as the Sens stay home off a disappointing 6-3 loss against Chicago on Saturday. Given they entered that game off consecutive wins, I think they may have gotten ahead of themselves after building an early lead against the Blackhawks. I like the spot for the Sens here, noting that they've gone a perfect 5-0 when playing at home after allowing 6+ goals in their previous game over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 1.8 goals on average in that situation. They're also a solid 16-10 when playing at home off a loss by 2+ goals over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outsoring opponents by an average margin of 0.3 goals in that spot. The Coyotes check in averaging 2.6 goals per game this season but that number drops to 2.1 when coming off a loss. They've been outscored by 1.2 goals on average when following up a loss this season. To make matters worse for the 'Yotes, they'll be without one of their best players in defenseman Jacob Chychrun for an extended period of time due to a lower body injury. Take Ottawa (5*). |

03-13-22 | Ducks v. Islanders -170 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 46 m | Show | |
My selection is on New York over Anaheim at 7:35 pm et on Sunday. The pressure is off and it shows. The Islanders are essentially out of playoff contention but check in playing some of their best hockey of the season, having won back-to-back and three of their last four games overall. The Ducks are at the opposite end of the spectrum, having lost six of their last eight games and in a tough back-to-back spot here after last night's 2-1 shootout loss against the Devils. Note that Anaheim is a woeful 1-18 the last 19 times it has sought revenge for a loss against an opponent by 3+ goals, as is the case here, outscored by 2.2 goals on average in that spot. Worse still, the Ducks are 0-10 when seeking revenge for a loss by 4+ goals against an opponent over the last two seasons, which is the case here after the Isles skated to a 4-0 win in Anaheim last month. New York checks in having allowed just 1.9 goals per game when playing at home for at least a fourth straight game this season (11-game sample size), outscoring opponents by 0.7 goals on average in that spot. While the Isles will turn to a red hot Ilya Sorokin in goal tonight. He has posted a terrific .961 save percentage over his last four starts with New York winning three of those games. Meanwhile, the Ducks will likely be forced to go with a struggling John Gibson after Anthony Stolarz started in last night's shootout loss in New Jersey. Gibson has recorded a .856 save percentage over his last four starts with the Ducks losing three of those four games. Finally, I'll point out that the Isles are as healthy as they've been all season, recently welcoming back both Mat Barzal and Zdeno Chara. Take New York (6*). |

03-12-22 | Lightning -135 v. Oilers | 1-4 | Loss | -135 | 16 h 36 m | Show | |
My selection is on Tampa Bay over Edmonton at 10:05 pm et on Saturday. The Lightning certainly want to salvage something from their western Canadian road swing but so far, not so good as they fell by a 7-4 score in Winnipeg and 4-1 in Calgary. I do look for them to get back in the win column on Saturday as they head to Edmonton to face the Oilers. Here, we'll note that Tampa Bay has gone 17-3 after being held to one goal or less in its previous game over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 1.5 goals on average in that spot. The Lightning average 4.2 goals per game while outscoring opponents by 1.6 goals on average when coming off a road loss this season (10-game sample size). The Oilers are 15-12 on home ice this season but have actually been outscored by 0.2 goals on average here in Edmonton. They managed to snap a three-game losing streak with a 4-3 overtime win over Washington last time out but it's worth noting that they caught the Caps in a tough back-to-back spot, not to mention the fact that Washington started struggling goaltender Ilya Samsonov in that one. The Oilers have already announced that Mikko Koskinen will start in goal on Saturday. While that could be considered a positive as he's performed relatively well lately, the Lightning have had his number in two previous games against him, securing 6-3 and 5-2 wins. Things won't get any easier for Tampa Bay on this trip as it will head to Vancouver for a tough back-to-back and three-in-four spot tomorrow. I look for the Lightning to make the most of their opportunity to snap their mini-skid in Edmonton on Saturday. Take Tampa Bay (8*). |

03-11-22 | Capitals v. Canucks UNDER 6.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -115 | 8 h 38 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Washington and Vancouver at 10:05 pm et on Friday. The Canucks have now seen the 'over' cash in nine straight games entering Friday's matchup with the Capitals. We're always looking for a 'catalyst for change' when we're looking to go against a streak like that and I believe we have it here with Vancouver enjoying its first three-day break between games since the streak began on February 17th. Washington has seen its last three games go 'over' the total although Wednesday's contest in Edmonton just as easily could have stayed 'under' were it not for a game-tying goal from T.J. Oshie in the closing seconds of the third period. The Caps have allowed eight goals in their first two games on this trip but still give up just 2.7 goals per game on the road this season. Despite a string of high-scoring games, Canucks home games are still averaging only 5.5 total goals this season. They allow just 2.6 goals per game on home ice this season and better still, that average drops to 2.3 when playing consecutive home games, as is the case here. The 'under' is 15-5 with Vancouver playing at home off a home win in which it scored 4+ goals over the last three seasons with that situation totalling an average of just 5.3 goals. Finally, I'll note that this game features two of the league's more underrated starting goaltenders in Vitek Vanecek and Thatcher Demko. Vanecek owns a .941 save percentage over his last four starts (he didn't start Wednesday's 4-3 loss in Edmonton). Demko hasn't exactly been at his best lately but like the rest of the team, will be making his first start on three or more days' rest since February 12th-17th. The Canucks netminder has posted a terrific .930 save percentage in 19 home starts this season with the 'under' going 11-7-1. Take the under (6*). |

03-10-22 | Sharks v. Kings OVER 5.5 | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 14 h 22 m | Show |
NHL Pacific Division Total of the Year. My selection is on the 'over' between San Jose and Los Angeles at 10:35 pm et on Thursday. I love the way this one sets up as a high-scoring game in Los Angeles on Thursday. The Sharks have been held to a grand total of three goals over their last three games. That's notable as that has happened three times previous this season and on those three occasions, in their next game they've scored 5, 6 and 4 goals with those three contests totalling 8, 9 and 9 goals. Here, San Jose catches Los Angeles back home after an eastern road swing. Note that the Kings have actually been a weaker defensive team at home than on the road this season, allowing 3.0 goals per game here in Los Angeles. There's a good chance we'll see Jonathan Quick in goal for the Kings after Cal Petersen started the last two games. Quick has been awful lately, posting a .876 save percentage over his last four starts with the 'over' cashing at a 3-1 clip along the way. Meanwhile, Petersen owns a less than impressive .902 save percentage in 11 home starts with the 'over' cashing at a 7-4 clip. The Sharks have already announced they'll give Zach Sawchenko his second straight start. He held up alright against the Ducks last time out but is likely to get peppered here, noting that the Kings average just shy of 37 shots per game on home ice this season. Here, we'll note that San Jose has allowed a ridiculous 5.4 goals per game with an average total of 8.3 goals when coming off a loss against a division opponent this season, as is the case here. The 'over' has cashed seven of eight times that situation has come up. The 'over' is also 9-2 with San Jose coming off three straight games in which it scored two goals or less over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of 7.9 goals in that spot. Take the over (10*). |

03-10-22 | Lightning -115 v. Flames | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -115 | 13 h 9 m | Show |
NHL Non-Conference Game of the Month. My selection is on Tampa Bay over Calgary at 9:05 pm et on Thursday. The Lightning are in a prime bounce-back spot here off a 7-4 loss in Winnipeg two nights ago. Note that Tampa Bay has gone 57-22 when coming off a loss over the last three seasons, outscoring opponents by 1.0 goal on average in that situation. Better still, the Bolts are 33-10 when coming off a loss by 2+ goals over the same time frame. We've seen Tampa Bay average 4.6 goals per game and outscore opponents by 2.2 goals on nine previous occasions in which they've come off a road loss this season. Even better, in five games in which they've played on the road after a loss by 3+ goals this season, as is the case here, they've averaged a ridiculous 6.4 goals and outscored the opposition by an average margin of 4.2 goals. The Flames took full advantage of a favorable schedule in February but have cooled off recently. Calgary lost only once from January 24th until February 21st (a 13-game stretch) but has now dropped three of its last seven games since, including a 5-4 loss here at home against Washington two nights ago. Note that the Flames have allowed 4.3 goals per game and have been outscored by 1.5 goals on average on six previous occasions when they've sought revenge for a loss against an opponent in which they scored one goal or less this season, as is the case here after they dropped a 4-1 decision back on January 6th in Tampa. Take Tampa Bay (10*). |

03-08-22 | Rangers v. Wild -140 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 32 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on Minnesota over New York at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Wild are in desperate need of a spark right now, and fast as they have fallen all the way into a tie for third place in the Central Division just a few points above the first team out in the Western Conference playoff picture. I do look for Minnesota to bounce back on Tuesday as it looks to begin the turnaround following a 2-8 skid. Here, we'll note that the Wild are a perfect 8-0 after giving up 5+ goals in consecutive games over the last three seasons, outscoring opponents by 2.2 goals on average in that spot. They also check in 11-2 when coming off a home loss by 3+ goals over the same stretch, which is the case here, outscoring the opposition by 1.1 goals in that situation. The Rangers are riding a three-game winning streak including a 4-1 victory in Winnipeg on Sunday to open their current road trip. It's not as if they've been dominant on the road this season though, only outscoring opponents by an average margin of 0.2 goals in 29 games. They check in averaging only 2.8 goals per contest away from home, compared to the Wild who put up 4.3 goals per game here at home this season. Here, we'll note that New York is a woeful 2-10 when on the road after scoring 3+ goals in three or more consecutive games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, averaging just 1.9 goals and outscored by 1.7 goals on average in that spot. Take Minnesota (8*). |

03-08-22 | Stars v. Predators UNDER 5.5 | 1-2 | Win | 104 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Dallas and Nashville at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. Both of these teams are coming off high-scoring games. In the case of the Stars they're coming off four consecutive 'over' results. As for Nashville, it exploded for eight goals in a shutout win in San Jose on Saturday - its second straight 'over' result. Here, I look for a different story to unfold. Note that the Stars check in averaging a miserable 1.4 goals per game when playing on the road off consecutive wins over division opponents over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 5.0 goals (five-game sample size). The 'under' is 7-1 with the Stars having scored 3+ goals in four consecutive games this season, leading to an average total of 5.1 goals. We've also seen the 'under' go 46-29 with the Stars coming off four or more consecutive 'over' results in the long-term picture. The Preds, meanwhile, average just 1.4 goals per game when playing at home after scoring 6+ goals in their previous game over the last two seasons, with the 'under' going a perfect 7-0 along the way with an average total of only 3.5 goals. The 'under' is also 9-1 with Nashville playing at home after scoring 4+ goals in a road victory over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of only 4.2 goals. Take the under (8*). |

03-08-22 | Stars v. Predators -113 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 32 h 14 m | Show |
NHL Western Conference Game of the Week. My selection is on Nashville over Dallas at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Preds snapped out of a two-game skid with a resounding 8-0 win in San Jose on Saturday. It's all for not, however, if they can't follow it up with another victory back home against Dallas on Tuesday night. I look for them to accomplish that with Dallas checking in off consecutive wins to open this three-game road trip. Note that the Stars are still just 12-15 on the road this season, outscored by 0.6 goals on average along the way. I'll also point to the fact that the Stars are 0-5 when playing on the road off consecutive wins over division opponents over the last two seasons outscored by a whopping 2.2 goals on average in that situation. In the long-term picture, they're just 58-84 when coming off four or more consecutive wins, as is the case here. Meanwhile, the Preds have been an excellent positive momentum play, going 8-1 when coming off a road win in which they scored 4+ goals this season, which is the case here, outscoring opponents by 1.2 goals on average in that spot. Take Nashville (10*). |

03-08-22 | Senators v. Blues OVER 6 | Top | 4-1 | Loss | -113 | 32 h 53 m | Show |
NHL Non-Conference Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Ottawa and St. Louis at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. We won with the 'under' in the Senators most recent game - a 2-1 loss in Las Vegas on Sunday. We also cashed with the 'under' in the Blues 2-1 loss on Long Island on Saturday. Here, I won't hesitate to go the other way and back the 'over' as the Sens conclude their road trip in St. Louis on Tuesday night. Note that the 'over' is 14-5 with Ottawa coming off a game in which it scored one goal or less over the last two seasons, with that spot producing an average total of 8.3 goals. So far this season, the 'over' is 7-1 when the Sens follow up a game that saw four total goals or less, also the situation here, leading to an average total of 8.7 goals. If you follow my plays regularly you know that I like to take a zig-zag approach when it comes to Blues totals. Here, we'll note that the 'over' is 33-22 with St. Louis coming off an 'under' result over the last two seasons, good for an average total of 6.7 goals. Take the over (10*). |

03-08-22 | Coyotes v. Red Wings OVER 5.5 | 9-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 34 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Arizona and Detroit at 7:35 pm et on Tuesday. While this matchup pits two non-contenders from opposite conferences, I don't expect any shortage of offensive fireworks on Tuesday night at Little Caesars Arena. The Coyotes ended a stretch of scoring three goals or less in seven straight games with an eight-goal explosion against Ottawa on Saturday. They're well-positioned to keep it going against a Red Wings squad that has had a miserable time keeping the puck out of its own net lately, allowing 27 goals over their last five games alone. Alex Nedeljkovic is expected to start in goal for Detroit - an area that has been a real sore spot for the Wings. Nedeljkovic has posted a .889 save percentage over his last four starts. The 'over' is 12-9 in his 21 home starts this season, where he has posted a .901 save percentage this season. Interestingly, the Coyotes average an impressive 4.5 goals per game with an average total of 6.8 goals after being outshot by 8+ shots in three consecutive games this season (four-game sample size). While the 'Yotes allow a disappointing 3.7 goals per game overall this season, that average rises to 4.2 goals per game when coming off a win, as is the case here (15-game sample size). As for the Red Wings, they average only 2.9 goals this season but that average increases to 3.6 goals per contest after losing five or six of their last seven games this season, as is the case here (nine-game sample size). The 'over' is 10-3 with the Wings coming off a road loss by two or more goals this season, resulting in an average of 7.0 total goals in that spot. Take the over (6*). |

03-07-22 | Avalanche -190 v. Islanders | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 52 m | Show | |
My selection is on Colorado over New York at 7:35 pm et on Monday. We won with the 'under' in the Islanders most recent game as they skated to a low-event 2-1 win over a suddenly struggling St. Louis squad on Saturday afternoon. Here, I won't hesitate to fade the Isles as they stay at home to host an Avs team that will undoubtedly be in an unforgiving mood after suffering rare consecutive losses. Note that Colorado has been held to just four goals over its last two games. That's happened over a two-game stretch only twice previously this season. In their next game they've gone 2-0, scoring nine goals in the process. I certainly anticipate Colorado bouncing back offensively here, noting that it will be facing Semyon Varlamov between the pipes for the Isles. The Isles have given up nine goals in Varlamov's last two starts and they've gone winless in his eight starts against non-conference opponents this season. Isles head coach Barry Trotz announced that there's still no timetable for Mat Barzal or Zdeno Chara's return, two key missing pieces. While it has picked up a few wins here and there over the last several weeks, there's no denying New York's season has been circling the drain for quite some time. Look for Colorado to get back in the win column on Monday. Take Colorado (5*). |

03-06-22 | Senators v. Golden Knights UNDER 6 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 23 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Ottawa and Vegas at 8:05 pm et on Sunday. The Senators are coming off a wild, high-scoring affair in Arizona yesterday, falling by an 8-5 score against Arizona. I expect a much different story to unfold on Sunday, however, as they head to Las Vegas to take on the Golden Knights. Note that the 'under' is 15-4 with the Sens coming off an 'over' result this season, leading to an average total of just 4.9 goals. Better still, the 'under' is 15-2 when Ottawa follows up a game that saw 7+ total goals this season, as is the case here, resulting in only 4.5 total goals on average in that spot. Meanwhile, the Knights check in off a 5-4 win in Anaheim on Friday. Note that the 'under' is 13-3 when they come off a road game in which both teams scored 3+ goals over the last three seasons, producing an average total of 5.1 goals in that situation. When the Knights play at home after scoring 5+ goals in their previous contest over the last two seasons, the 'under' has gone 23-13 in their next game, averaging just 5.0 total goals. Take the under (8*). |

03-06-22 | Stars v. Wild -140 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -140 | 19 h 31 m | Show |
NHL Central Division Game of the Year. My selection is on Minnesota over Dallas at 4:05 pm et on Sunday. We missed with the Wild on Friday as they fell in stunning fashion on the road against the lowly Sabres. I do expect them to bounce back on Sunday, however, as they return home to host the Stars. Dallas is coming off an overtime win in Winnipeg on Friday. That sets the Stars up poorly here, noting that they've gone 3-10 when playing on the road off a win over a division opponent over the last two seasons, outscored by 1.1 goals on average in that spot. They're also just 2-9 after winning five or six of their last seven games over the same stretch, as is the case here, outscored by 2.0 goals on average in that situation. The Wild have been inexplicably struggling for weeks but they're well-positioned to bounce back here. Minnesota checks in 13-2 after allowing 4+ goals in consecutive games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.2 goals in that spot. The Wild are also a terrific 14-3 when coming off five or six losses over their last seven games over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.3 goals along the way. You would have to go back four meetings here in Minnesota to find the last time the Stars skated to a win here. Take Minnesota (10*). |

03-05-22 | Flames v. Avalanche -145 | 4-3 | Loss | -145 | 11 h 6 m | Show | |
My selection is on Colorado over Calgary at 10:05 pm et on Saturday. The Flames check in off a loss to the Canadiens two nights ago. Losses have been few and far between for Calgary lately. In fact, the Flames haven't dropped consecutive games over their last 19 contests. I expect them to here, however. Colorado is coming off a disappointing 2-1 loss on the road against the lowly Coyotes. It wasn't for lack of trying as the Avs fired more than 40 shots on goal in that game. I certainly expect them to bounce back here, noting that they've gone 23-5 on home ice this season, outscoring opponents by 1.6 goals on average. While the Flames have given up a whopping 16 goals over their last four games, the Avs come in having allowed only 12 goals over their last five contests. Here, we'll note that Colorado is an incredible 16-1 when playing at home after winning five or six of its last seven games this season, outscoring opponents by 1.8 goals on average in that situation. Take Colorado (6*). |
|||||||
03-05-22 | Canucks v. Maple Leafs -205 | 6-4 | Loss | -205 | 8 h 20 m | Show | |
My selection is on Toronto over Vancouver at 7:05 pm et on Saturday. The Canucks enter this game off a solid 4-3 win over the Islanders two nights ago and have won two of the first three games on their current eastern road swing. Meanwhile, the Leafs are coming off a very ugly 5-1 loss to the Sabres on home ice. I don't expect Toronto will have any difficulty getting up for this bounce-back game against a Canucks squad they just dropped a 3-2 decision against in Vancouver back on February 12th. Note that Toronto is an incredible 17-3 when at home seeking revenge for a loss against an opponent over the last two seasons, allowing just 1.7 goals per game and outscoring the opposition by 1.2 goals on average in that situation. When seeking revenge for a one-goal loss against an opponent this season the Leafs have given up only 1.3 goals on average, outscoring the opposition by 1.5 goals on average (six-game sample size). Meanwhile, the Canucks are a woeful 11-27 when coming off a road win over the last three seasons, outscored by 0.9 goals on average in that spot and even worse, they're just 3-13 when following up a road win in which they scored 4+ goals over the last two seasons, allowing 3.9 goals on average while being outscored by 1.7 goals in that situation. Take Toronto (5*). |
|||||||
03-05-22 | Bruins v. Blue Jackets UNDER 6 | 5-4 | Loss | -115 | 7 h 41 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Boston and Columbus at 7:05 pm et on Saturday. The Bruins enter this game off three straight 'over' results while the Blue Jackets have seen their last two games go 'over' the total. I'll go the other way on Saturday as the two teams match up in Columbus. Starting goaltenders have been confirmed with Jeremy Swayman manning the net for the Bruins and Elvis Merzlikins starting in a back-to-back spot for the Jackets. Swayman has been tremendous lately, posting a .965 save percentage over his last four games. Merzlikins has certainly been the Jackets best option as well, recording a .916 save percentage on home ice this season. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 15-7 with the Bruins playing on the road off consecutive 'over' results over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of 5.0 goals. The B's enter this game having scored a whopping 15 goals over their last three contests. Note that they've accomplished that feat only twice previously this season, with the 'under' cashing in their next game on both occasions. Take the under (7*). |

03-05-22 | Blues v. Islanders UNDER 5.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 5 h 1 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between St. Louis and New York at 12:35 pm et on Saturday. I like the way this one sets up as a relatively low-scoring affair in early action on Saturday. The Blues are coming off a wild 5-3 loss against the Rangers on Wednesday. They've had a couple of day to stew over that poor defensive effort and should come back strong in this spot. Note that the 'under' is 36-21 with the Blues coming off an 'over' result over the last two seasons. Better still, the 'under' is 46-29 with St. Louis off a game that totalled seven goals or more over the last three seasons. The Isles continue to struggle and enter this game following consecutive losses against the Avalanche and Canucks, allowing nine goals in the process. Keep in mind, New York allows just 2.5 goals per game on home ice this season, leading to an average total of only 4.9 goals. The 'under' is 15-4 with the Isles playing at home off consecutive 'over' results, with an average total of only 4.0 goals in that situation. The 'under' is also an incredible 11-2 after New York scores 3+ goals in three consecutive games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 4.2 goals. Take the under (8*). |
|||||||
03-04-22 | Devils v. Rangers -152 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 42 m | Show | |
My selection is on New York over New Jersey at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Rangers have taken seven straight meetings against the Devils and I don't believe this is the spot where New Jersey finally turns the tide. New York still has losses against Pittsburgh and Vancouver fresh in its mind despite an impressive win over St. Louis on Wednesday. This is obviously a key spot for the Blueshirts before they head out on a four-game road trip. Here, they're in one of their more favorable spots, having held opponents to just 1.6 goals per game, outscoring them by an average margin of 1.3 goals when playing at home off a home win this season (eight-game sample size). Better still, New York is 10-1 this season, averaging 3.6 goals per game and outscoring opponents by 1.1 goals on average, when coming off consecutive games in which it allowed 3+ goals, as is the case here. New Jersey, meanwhile, is a woeful 11-32 when coming off two losses in its last three games over the last two seasons, allowing 3.7 goals on average in that spot. Take New York (8*). |
|||||||
03-04-22 | Penguins v. Hurricanes UNDER 6.5 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 26 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Pittsburgh and Carolina at 7:05 pm et on Friday. The Penguins exploded for five goals in an unlikely blowout win in Tampa last night while the Hurricanes were blanked by a 4-0 score in Washington. I believe we're set up for a relatively low-scoring affair between these two teams in Raleigh on Friday night, even after the lone previous meeting this season totalled seven goals on February 20th. Note that the Penguins allow just 2.3 goals per game on the road this season while the Canes are giving up only 2.2 goals per contest on home ice. Carolina has allowed eight goals over its last two games and that's notable as it has happened on only five previous occasions this season. In the Canes next game after giving up 8+ goals over a two-game stretch they've allowed only 1, 3, 1, 3 and 0 goals with the 'under' cashing in three of those five contests. Here, we'll also note that the 'under' is 12-2 with the Canes playing at home after losing two of their last three games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 4.5 goals. The 'under' is also 29-12 with Carolina coming off a loss against a division opponent over the last three seasons, leading to an average total of 5.2 goals in that situation. Pittsburgh scored five goals last night but had been held to a grand total of nine goals over its previous five games. Take the under (6*). |

03-04-22 | Wild -200 v. Sabres | 4-5 | Loss | -200 | 8 h 15 m | Show | |
My selection is on Minnesota over Buffalo at 7:05 pm et on Friday. Believe it or not, this is a revenge spot for the Wild after they stunningly dropped a 3-2 decision at home against the Sabres as a -320 home favorite back in mid-December. Minnesota certainly isn't playing its best hockey right now but it is coming off a come-from-behind win in Philadelphia last night - the type of win that can build some positive vibes for a team. Note that the Wild have failed to register consecutive wins over an eight-game stretch currently - their longest such stretch of the season. I expect it to end here. Note that Minnesota is 7-1 after losing five or six of its last seven games over the last two seasons, as is the case here, outscoring opponents by 1.2 goals on average in that spot. Better still, they're an incredible 13-1 after giving up 4+ goals in consecutive games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 1.3 goals while averaging 3.9 goals per game in that situation. As for the Sabres, they've gone 0-6 when returning home off consecutive road games this season, outscored by an average margin of 1.1 goals in that spot. Take Minnesota (5*). |

03-04-22 | Red Wings v. Lightning OVER 6.5 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 55 m | Show |
Atlantic Division Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'over' between Detroit and Tampa Bay at 7:05 pm et on Friday. There are times when the oddsmakers simply can't set a total high enough and I believe that's the case for Friday's matchup between the Red Wings and Lightning in Tampa. Detroit is a mess in goal right now with regular starter Alex Nedeljkovic struggling mightily, having posted a ridiculous .825 save percentage over his last four starts. Backup Thomas Greiss isn't necessarily a better option though. He owns a .865 save percentage in 10 road games (nine starts) this season, with the 'over' cashing in seven of those nine starts. The good news for Detroit is that it has been scoring with some consistency. The Wings have scored three goals or more in 13 of their last 16 games. Tonight they'll likely get the opportunity to go against Lightning backup goaltender Brian Elliott. He owns a .902 save percentage this season but that number drops to .873 here at home. The 'over' is 7-1 in his eight starts. The Lightning will undoubtedly be in a foul mood following last night's lifeless effort in a 5-1 loss to the Penguins. That really came out of nowhere as they had been lighting it up offensively, scoring 4, 6, 5, 3 and 5 goals over their last five games. Note that the 'over' is 7-1 with the Bolts coming off a loss by 3+ goals this season. They've averaged a whopping 5.1 goals per game in that situation with an average total of 7.7 goals. Take the over (10*). |

03-03-22 | Canucks v. Islanders UNDER 5.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -117 | 8 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Vancouver and New York at 7:35 pm et on Thursday. The Canucks have seen each of their last six games go 'over' the total but I look for that streak to come to an end on Thursday. Note that Vancouver still averages just 2.8 goals per game on the road this season and checks in averaging just 2.1 goals per game when playing on the road off a road loss by 3+ goals over the last two seasons (19-game sample size), as is the case here following Monday's 7-2 loss in New Jersey. Backup goaltender Jaro Halak started that game. We should see Thatcher Demko back between the pipes for this one, noting that he has recorded a terrific .945 save percentage over his last four games. The Islanders are back home following a long road trip that wrapped up with a 5-3 loss in Colorado two nights ago. Note that the 'under' is 19-7 with New York coming off a game in which it allowed 5+ goals over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of just 4.7 goals. Better still, the 'under' is 9-2 with the Isles having scored 3+ goals in consecutive games this season as they've averaged just 2.2 goals per game in that spot. That's 0.4 goals per game lower than their season scoring average. New York will likely be without one of its top offensive threats again tonight in Mat Barzal as he continues to deal with a leg injury. Take the under (6*). |

03-03-22 | Hurricanes v. Capitals UNDER 6.5 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 13 m | Show |
NHL Metropolitan Division Total of the Month. My selection is on the 'under' between Carolina and Washington at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. Now that we have confirmation of the goaltending matchup, we can step in with a play on the 'under' in this divisional showdown. We actually won with the 'over' in the Caps most recent game - a wild 5-3 home loss to the Maple Leafs. With that being said, we lost with the 'under' in the Canes most recent game - a 4-3 overtime loss in Detroit two nights ago. We probably deserved a better fate in that one as the score was tied 1-1 entering the third period and was still 2-2 with less than five minutes remaining. Nevertheless, I like the way this one sets up as a relatively low-scoring affair on Thursday. The Canes started backup goaltender Antti Rantta in Detroit but will turn back to Frederik Andersen for this one. Andersen has been terrific, posting a .942 save percentage over his last four games. Going back over his last seven starts you'll see that the Canes gave up 0, 3, 3, 3, 3, 0 and 1 goal in those contests with the 'under' going 4-3. The Caps will have Vitek Vanecek back for his first start in over a month. He came on in relief of an ineffective Ilya Samsonov against Toronto on Monday and allowed just a single goal. In Vanecek's last 10 starts, the Caps allowed 2, 2, 3, 0, 3, 4, 2, 1, 0 and 3 goals with the 'under' cashing at a 6-4 clip. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 14-4 with the Hurricanes playing on the road seeking revenge for a loss against an opponent over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 4.6 goals. Take the under (10*). |

03-02-22 | Kings v. Stars -139 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on Dallas over Los Angeles at 8:35 pm et on Wednesday. We've had a good handle on games involving the Stars lately, going six-for-six with our last six plays. Here, I like the spot for the Stars as they look to make the most of this two-game homestand (they won the opener 4-2 over Buffalo) before heading out on the road for seven of their next eight games. Note that Dallas has been terrific on home ice this season, going 19-8, outscoring opponents by 0.7 goals on average. Also note that the Stars are a perfect 6-0 when at home seeking revenge for a loss where their opponent scored 4+ goals this season, as is the case here following a 4-0 loss in Los Angeles back in early December. They've averaged 4.7 goals per game and outscored opponents by an average margin of 1.7 goals in that situation. The Kings check in off an ugly 7-0 loss to the Bruins at home on Monday. That's the type of defeat that can linger a bit, especially given the fact it snapped the Kings five-game winning streak. Los Angeles is a solid 15-11 on the road this season but the margins have been slim as it has only outscored opponents by an average margin of 0.1 goals. While Jake Oettinger has been terrific between the pipes for Dallas lately, recording a .935 save percentage over his last four games, the Kings duo of Petersen and Quick has struggled. Petersen has posted a .892 save percentage over his last four games while Quick has recorded a .871 save percentage over his last four. Take Dallas (7*). |

03-01-22 | Sharks v. Golden Knights OVER 6 | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 31 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between San Jose and Vegas at 10:05 pm et on Tuesday. We won with the 'under' when these two teams last met back on February 20th as the Golden Knights skated to a 4-1 win in San Jose. I expect a different story to unfold on Tuesday, however. It's worth noting that the Knights have actually been a weaker defensive team at home than on the road this season, allowing 3.1 goals per game, good for a 16-11-2 o/u record and an average total of 6.3 goals scored. After being held to just 10 goals in their last six games combined, the Knights are certainly looking for an opportunity to bust out of their scoring slump, and this would appear to be an ideal spot to do just that, noting that they've scored 23 goals in their last five meetings with the Sharks and have won 12 of 13 matchups in this series over the last three seasons. The 'under' has cashed in each of Vegas' last three games - matching its longest such streak of the season. The last time it posted three straight 'unders', it followed it up with a 5-4 home win over the Ducks. As for the Sharks, note that the 'over' is 9-1 when they come off consecutive games totalling four goals or less over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of 7.9 goals in that spot. Take the over (9*). |

03-01-22 | Bruins v. Ducks +1.5 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 44 m | Show |
NHL Non-Conference Puck-Line Game of the Year. My selection is on Anaheim +1.5 goals over Boston at 10:05 pm et on Tuesday. We were on the wrong side of the Bruins stunning 7-0 win in Los Angeles last night but I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same puck-line play, this time in support of the Ducks on Tuesday. Boston is expected to turn to Linus Ullmark in goal tonight. That's worth noting as while last night's starter Jeremy Swayman has recorded an incredible .964 save percentage over his last four games, Ullmark has posted an .896 save percentage over his last four starts. In fact, you would have to go back 10 starts to find the last time the Bruins won a game by multiple goals with Ullmark in goal (5-1 win on January 12th at home against Montreal). Note that the Bruins are in a back-to-back spot here, a situation they've gone just 4-10 in, outscored by an average margin of 1.5 goals, over the last three seasons. They're also just 1-5 when playing on the road off five or more consecutive wins over the last three seasons, as is the case here, outscored by 1.5 goals on average in that situation as well. Finally, I'll point out that Boston has averaged just 2.1 goals per game and has been outscored by 0.6 goals on average when playing on the road seeking revenge for a loss by two goals or more against an opponent over the last three seasons (15-game sample size), as is the case here after Anaheim skated to a 5-3 win in Boston back in January. The Ducks check in off consecutive home losses but have played .500 hockey here this season, outscoring opponents by 0.3 goals on average. Take Anaheim +1.5 goals (10*). |

03-01-22 | Canadiens +1.5 v. Jets | 4-8 | Loss | -130 | 9 h 20 m | Show | |
My selection is on Montreal +1.5 goals over Winnipeg at 8:05 pm et on Tuesday. Since dropping a 5-3 decision against Buffalo on Super Bowl Sunday, the Canadiens have reeled off five consecutive wins, not coincidentally turning things around since Martin St. Louis replaced Dominique Ducharme as head coach. I like the way this spot sets up for the Habs as well and we'll grab the insurance goal as the price warrants such a play. Note that Winnipeg is coming off a come-from-behind 5-3 win in Arizona on Sunday. That puts it in a poor situation here noting that it has gone 0-6 when coming off a road win by two goals or more this season, outscored by an average margin of 2.2 goals in that spot. When playing at home off a win by 2+ goals over a division opponent over the last three seasons, as is the case here, the Jets have gone just 5-13, outscored by 1.0 goal on average. They're also just 9-17 when playing at home after scoring 3+ goals in consecutive games over the last three seasons, outscored by 0.6 goals on average in that spot. Finally, we'll note that the Jets have averaged a woeful 1.6 goals and have been outscored by an average margin of 0.4 goals when coming off a road victory in which they scored 4+ goals this season (five-game sample size). Take Montreal +1.5 goals (6*). |

03-01-22 | Hurricanes v. Red Wings UNDER 6 | 3-4 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 33 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Carolina and Detroit at 7:35 pm et on Tuesday. The Red Wings are coming off a ridiculous 10-7 home loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday night but I expect nothing of the sort to play out on Tuesday as they stay home to host the surging Hurricanes. Carolina checks in having allowed three goals or less in eight straight games and has given up just 2.5 goals per game on the road this season. You would have to go back four meetings to find the last time the Wings hung more than three goals on the Canes. Carolina skated to a 5-3 win in Raleigh in the first matchup between these two teams this season. That's worth noting as the Wings have posted a 14-28 o/u record when seeking revenge for a loss where their opponent scored 5+ goals over the last three seasons, resulting in an average total of 5.6 goals. Going back to that high-scoring result on Saturday here in Motown, the Wings have seen the 'under' go 8-1 when coming off a game that totalled 9+ goals this season, leading to an average total of just 4.3 goals in that spot. We have seen the Wings show the ability to tighten things up defensively when they need to here at home this season, allowing only 2.1 goals per game when playing at home after losing three of their last four contests, as is the case here. Take the under (7*). |

02-28-22 | Bruins v. Kings +1.5 | 7-0 | Loss | -197 | 14 h 31 m | Show | |
My selection is on Los Angeles +1.5 goals over Boston at 10:35 pm et on Monday. Both of these teams enter this game red hot and I'm certainly anticipated a tightly-contested affair on Monday night. With that being said, we'll grab the insurance goal with the Kings, even though we have to pay a significant tariff to do so. Here, we'll note that Boston checks in just 16-17 after giving up one goal or less in its previous game over the last two seasons with an even 3.0-3.0 scoring average in that particular spot. When coming off four or more consecutive wins over the last three seasons, as is the case here, the B's have allowed 3.2 goals per game, outscored by an average margin of 0.2 goals in that situation. The Kings, meanwhile, have given up just 1.7 goals per game when coming off five or more consecutive victories over the last three seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.6 goals on average in that spot. They're just 14-13 on home ice this season but have outscored the opposition by 0.3 goals on average. Take Los Angeles +1.5 goals (5*). |

02-28-22 | Maple Leafs v. Capitals OVER 6 | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'over' between Toronto and Washington at 7:35 pm et on Monday. These two teams haven't met since back in October of 2019 so it's easy to forget how entertaining their previous matchups were. Going all the way back to November of 2017, their last seven meetings totalled 6, 7, 6, 9, 5, 7 and 7 goals. The Leafs are of course coming off a circus-like 10-7 win in Detroit on Saturday night. While that final scoreline was somewhat shocking, the fact is, high-scoring games involving the Leafs have been the norm when they play on the road this season. They're averaging 3.9 goals per game away from home but also giving up an average of 3.3. Goaltending continues to be an issue for Toronto with both Jack Campbell and Petr Mrazek struggling. We should see Campbell on Monday, noting that he has posted an .888 save percentage over his last four games. Washington hasn't been much better between the pipes, with Ilya Samsonov recording an .890 save percentage here at home, with the 'over' cashing at a 9-4 clip in his 13 starts. Here, we'll note that the 'over' is 18-6 with the Caps coming off a game in which three total goals or less were scored over the last three seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 6.7 goals. Interestingly, the Caps check in allowing 3.6 goals per game when playing at home off a road loss over the last three seasons, leading to an average total of 6.4 goals (15-game sample size). I don't expect goals to be hard to come by in this one. Take the over (7*). |

02-27-22 | Islanders v. Ducks UNDER 5.5 | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 12 h 40 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Anaheim at 8:35 pm et on Sunday. We've now seen three straight games go 'over' the total on the Islanders current road trip. While we've missed with the 'under' in their last two contests, I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here. We'll note again that the 'under' is 14-4 with the Isles coming off consecutive 'over' results over the last two seasons, with that spot producing an average total of just 4.0 goals. We've also seen the 'under' go 18-7 with New York coming off a game in which it allowed 5+ goals, as is the case here following last night's 5-2 loss in Los Angeles, resulting in an average total of 4.7 goals. Better still, the 'under' is 15-6 with New York playing on the road after suffering a loss by 3+ goals in their previous game, also the case here, leading to an average total of just 4.6 goals. The Ducks are coming off a lopsided defeat of their own against the Kings, dropping a 4-1 decision on Friday night. Note that they're still allowing just 2.6 goals per game on home ice this season, having posted a 12-15 o/u record here on the Pond. Save for a seven-goal explosion in Vancouver last week, the Ducks offense has been fairly quiet lately, scoring three goals or less in six of their last eight games overall. Interestingly, Anaheim has averaged just 2.0 goals per game at home in the second half of the season over the last two campaigns. Take the under (8*). |
|||||||
02-27-22 | Blues -159 v. Blackhawks | 4-0 | Win | 100 | 7 h 31 m | Show | |
My selection is on St. Louis over Chicago at 3:05 pm et on Sunday. Both of these teams are coming off victories on Friday night but I believe the Blues are better-positioned to win again on Sunday as they look to win three out of four against the Blackhawks this season, and seven of the last eight in this series. The Blackhawks are in a tough spot here, noting that they're a woeful 2-11 when playing at home off a home win in which they scored 4+ goals over the last three seasons, outscored by an average margin of 1.2 goals in that situation. They're just 3-17 when coming off a win by 2+ goals over the last two seasons, as is the case here, outscored by 1.4 goals on average in that spot. Keep in mind, Chicago is just 9-17 on home ice this season where it averages only 2.5 goals per contest. While St. Louis has only managed to go an even 12-12 on the road, it has averaged 3.3 goals per game and has outscored the opposition by an average margin of 0.3 goals away from home. When healthy, which it is for the most part right now, I would match up St. Louis with most of the better teams in the league talent-wise. Take St. Louis (6*). |

02-26-22 | Islanders v. Kings UNDER 5.5 | 2-5 | Loss | -116 | 12 h 41 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and Los Angeles at 10:35 pm et on Saturday. We missed with the 'under' in the Islanders most recent game but did cash the Sharks +1.5 goals in that 4-3 San Jose shootout victory. I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the 'under' again as the Isles continue their road trip in Los Angeles on Saturday, however. Note that the 'under' is 14-3 with the Isles playing on the road off consecutive 'over' results over the last two seasons, with that spot producing an average total of only 3.8 goals. The 'under' is also 9-1 with New York having scored 3+ goals in consecutive games this season, leading to an average total of just 4.2 goals. As for the Kings, they've seen the 'under' cash at a 13-4 clip when playing at home off a win by 3+ goals over the last two seasons, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of just 4.5 goals. The 'under' is also an identical 13-4 with the Kings coming off three or more consecutive wins over the last three seasons, leading to just 4.6 total goals on average in that spot. The first meeting between these two teams totalled only five goals as the Kings defeated the Isles by a 3-2 score on January 27th. The 'under' is 8-6 in the last 14 meetings between these two teams in Los Angeles. Take the under (9*). |
|||||||
02-26-22 | Bruins v. Sharks +1.5 | 3-1 | Loss | -160 | 9 h 57 m | Show | |
My selection is on San Jose +1.5 goals over Boston at 10:05 pm et on Saturday. We won with the Sharks on the puck-line in their most recent game as they finally snapped their losing streak with a 4-3 shootout win over the Islanders. In fact, we've won with San Jose +1.5 goals in each of the last two games and have been rewarded with consecutive winners. We'll go back to the well here. Note that Boston is just 6-10 after giving up two goals or less in three straight games over the last two seasons. They're also just 35-33, outscoring opponents by only 0.3 goals on average after a win over the same time frame. Meanwhile, the Sharks are 11-4 when playing at home after giving up 3+ goals in three straight games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.4 goals on average in that situation. You would have to go back 12 meetings between these two teams here in San Jose - all the way to 1999 - to find the last time Boston won a game by two or more goals. Take San Jose +1.5 goals (6*). |
|||||||
02-26-22 | Lightning v. Predators +1.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 9 h 56 m | Show | |
My selection is on Nashville +1.5 goals over Tampa Bay at 7:35 pm et on Saturday. The Preds have righted the ship by posting consecutive wins after losing four in a row. They'll be in tough trying to make it three wins in a row against a Lightning squad that has reeled off three consecutive wins itself, but I'm comfortable backing Nashville with an insurance goal as it hosts this 'Stadium Series' game on Saturday. Note that Tampa is just 21-24 and an even 3.1-3.1 in terms of scoring average when coming off six or seven wins in its last eight games over the last two seasons, as is the case here. The Bolts also check in an even 29-29 after scoring 3+ goals in three consecutive games over the same stretch, only managing to outscore opponents by 0.3 goals on average in that situation. Meanwhile, the Preds are 15-7 after losing four or five of their last six contests over the last two seasons, outscoring the opposition by an average margin of 0.4 goals. Take Nashville +1.5 goals (6*). |
|||||||
02-25-22 | Golden Knights v. Coyotes OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -120 | 12 h 20 m | Show |
NHL Total of the Week. My selection is on the 'over' between Vegas and Arizona at 9:35 pm et on Friday. Both of these teams are coming off 'under' results in their most recent game. In the case of the Coyotes, they're fresh off consecutive 'under' results. I expect a different story to unfold on Friday, however. Note that the Knights skated to a 7-1 rout of the Coyotes here in Glendale in their lone previous meeting this season. Vegas checks in averaging 3.3 goals per game on the road this season. While the Coyotes aren't lighting the lamp with a lot of consistency at home this season they have managed to score three goals or more in four of their last five games overall. Here, we'll note that the 'over' is a perfect 5-0 with Arizona playing at home off consecutive 'under' results this season with that situation producing an average total of 8.0 goals. The 'over' is also 12-3 with the Coyotes seeking revenge for a loss by 3+ goals against an opponent over the last two seasons, with an average total of 6.9 goals scored in that spot. The Knights, meanwhile, have posted a 14-5 o/u mark when coming off an 'under' result this season, with that situation producing an average total of 6.8 goals. While the Knights gave up just a single goal in their most recent game - a 4-1 win in San Jose on Sunday (we won with the 'under' in that game), they've still allowed 13 goals over their last four contests. Take the over (10*). |

02-24-22 | Islanders v. Sharks +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 9 m | Show | |
My selection is on San Jose +1.5 goals over New York at 10:35 pm et on Thursday. We won backing the Sharks on the puck-line two nights ago in Anaheim as they ultimately fell in a shootout against the Ducks. San Jose is now riding a seven-game losing streak but we'll once again get behind it with an insurance goal as it returns home to host New York on Thursday. Here, we'll again note that the Sharks are 10-4 when playing at home after allowing 3+ goals in three consecutive games over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.4 goals on average in that spot. They're also 11-6 after giving up 4+ goals in consecutive games over the last two seasons, outscoring the opposition by an average margin of 0.2 goals in that situation. The last seven times the Sharks have played at home off six or more consecutive losses we've seen them average an impressive 4.5 goals per game while outscoring opponents by 0.4 goals on average. Meanwhile, the Islanders are a woeful 5-14 when seeking revenge for a same-season loss against an opponent over the last two seasons, averaging just 2.1 goals while getting outscored by 1.1 goals on average in that spot. When playing on the road off a road win by 3+ goals over the last two seasons, as is the case here, the Isles have averaged only 1.6 goals and have been outscored by an average margin of 0.5 goals. Keep in mind, New York is just 9-13 on the road this season where it has been outscored by 0.5 goals per game. Take San Jose +1.5 goals (6*). |

02-24-22 | Islanders v. Sharks UNDER 5.5 | 3-4 | Loss | -120 | 15 h 7 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between New York and San Jose at 10:35 pm et on Thursday. Both of these teams are coming off 'over' results in their most recent games but I expect a different story to unfold when they match up in San Jose on Thursday. The Isles skated to a 5-2 win over the expansion Kraken two nights ago. Keep in mind, the 'under' is 10-2 with New York coming off a game in which it scored 4+ goals this season, resulting in an average total of only 4.5 goals. Better still, the 'under' is a perfect 7-0 with the Isles playing on the road off a road win by 3+ goals over the last two seasons, leading to an average total of only 3.7 goals. Meanwhile, the Sharks have posted a 4-13 o/u record after giving up 3+ goals in consecutive games this season, which is the case here, resulting in an average total of 5.4 goals in that spot. Keep in mind the first meeting between these two teams this season totalled only three goals. The 'under' has cashed in 11 of the last 16 matchups in this series. Take the under (7*). |

02-24-22 | Flames v. Canucks UNDER 5.5 | 1-7 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 19 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Calgary and Vancouver at 10:05 pm et on Thursday. The Canucks enter this game off three consecutive 'over' results but I expect that streak to end here, noting that the most recent meeting between these two teams totalled just one goal back in late January (we won with the Flames in that game). Calgary has allowed two goals or less in eight straight games with the 'under' cashing in its last two contests. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is a perfect 7-0 the last seven times the Flames have played on the road off six or more consecutive wins, as is the case here. The 'under' is 11-3 with the Canucks playing at home off a win by 2+ goals over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of 5.2 goals scored in that spot. Better still, the 'under' is 9-2 with Vancouver seeking revenge for a road loss against an opponent this season, leading to only 4.4 total goals on average in that situation. Keep in mind, while the Canucks have scored a whopping 14 goals over the course of their three-game winning streak, they average only 2.6 goals per game (and an average total of 5.2 goals) here at home this season while the Flames give up just 2.6 goals per contest on the road. Take the under (6*). |

02-24-22 | Bruins v. Seattle Kraken +1.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 14 m | Show | |
My selection is on Seattle +1.5 goals over Boston at 10:05 pm et on Thursday. I'll take a shot with the Kraken on the puck-line on Thursday as they look to get right on the heels of five consecutive losses. Boston will welcome Brad Marchand back from suspension for this game. The B's are coming off a 5-1 rout of the Avalanche in a matinee affair on Monday but now head out on the road where they're a modest 13-10, outscoring opponents by an average margin of only 0.4 goals on the season. Remember, these two teams just met in Boston back on February 1st in a game that could have gone either way with the B's skating to a 3-2 victory. Here, we'll note that Boston is just 22-24 after winning two of its last three games over the last two seasons and 15-17 when coming off a game in which it allowed one goal or less over the same stretch, outscored by an average margin of 0.1 goals in that particular spot. In 26 previous occasions when coming off a victory this season, the B's have allowed 3.3 goals per game and have been outscored by an average margin of 0.3 goals. This is a situation where the Kraken have got the juices flowing a bit this season, noting that they've averaged 3.3 goals per game and have been outscored by only 0.3 goals on average (compared to being outscored by 1.0 goal on average overall this season) when coming off a home loss by 3+ goals, as is the case here. Take Seattle +1.5 goals (5*). |
|||||||
02-24-22 | Stars v. Predators UNDER 5.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 54 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Dallas and Nashville at 8:35 pm et on Thursday. The Preds are coming off a wild, high-scoring 6-4 win in Florida two nights ago but I expect nothing of the sort as they host the Starts, who are fresh off a 3-2 overtime win over the Jets last night. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is a perfect 6-0 with the Preds playing at home after scoring 6+ goals in their previous game over the last two seasons, resulting in an average total of just 3.6 goals. In fact, the 'under' is 11-2 with Nashville returning home off a road win over the last three seasons, with that spot producing just 4.5 total goals on average. Meanwhile, the 'under' is 13-6 with the Stars coming off four or five wins in their last six games this season, as is the case here, resulting in an average total of 5.0 goals. Finally, I'll note that each of the last four meetings between these two teams in Nashville have stayed 'under' the total. Take the under (8*). |
|||||||
02-24-22 | Blue Jackets v. Panthers -1.5 | 6-3 | Loss | -150 | 9 h 10 m | Show | |
My selection is on Florida -1.5 goals over Columbus at 7:05 pm et on Thursday. The Blue Jackets are in an extremely tough spot on Thursday night as they travel to Florida to face a Panthers squad that blew multiple leads in an eventual 6-4 home loss to the Predators two nights ago - their first loss in four games. The Jackets are off three straight wins, scoring an incredible 18 goals over that stretch. I question whether they can keep it up on Thursday, however, with their engine Zach Werenski (he averages 26 minutes per game and anchors the power play) sidelined. Keep in mind, goaltender Elvis Merzlikins has been placed on I.R. as well, leaving third-string goaltender J.F. Berube to man the net for a third straight game. He's performed admirably in his first two starts but now faces a Panthers squad that averages 4.7 goals per game on home ice this season. Here, the Panthers have gone 23-4, outscoring opponents by 1.9 goals per game. Note that Florida is an incredible 16-1 when playing consecutive home games this season, outscoring opponents by an average margin of 2.6 goals in that situation. Take Florida -1.5 goals (4*). |

02-23-22 | Oilers v. Lightning UNDER 6.5 | 3-5 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 13 m | Show | |
My selection is on the 'under' between Edmonton and Tampa Bay at 7:35 pm et on Wednesday. We missed with the 'under' in Edmonton's 7-3 home loss to the Wild on Sunday but I won't hesitate to go back to the well with the same play here as the Oilers head to the Sunshine State to open an eastern road swing against the Lightning. Sunday's lopsided loss snapped a five-game winning streak for the Oilers. During that winning streak, they allowed a grand total of only eight goals. I'm willing to chalk up Sunday's seven goals allowed against Minnesota as a short-term anomaly, even if I'm not all that high on Edmonton's long-term defensive prospects. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 14-5 with the Oilers playing on the road off a home loss by 2+ goals over the last two seasons with that spot producing an average total of only 5.1 goals. The 'under' is also 11-2 with Edmonton following a game where eight or more total goals were scored this season, resulting in an average total of only 5.5 goals. The Lightning, meanwhile, come into this one hot off consecutive road wins, scoring a whopping 10 goals in the process. Keep in mind, those performances came against the Coyotes and Devils - two of the league's weakest teams. The 'under' has gone 14-10 in Lightning home games this season, with an average total of just 5.6 goals scored. Here, we'll note that the 'under' is 12-5 with the Lightning playing at home after winning two of their last three games this season, resulting in an average total of just 5.2 goals. Finally, I'll note that nine of the last 16 meetings between these two teams in Tampa have stayed 'under' the total. Take the under (8*). |

02-22-22 | Sharks +1.5 v. Ducks | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 2 m | Show | |
My selection is on San Jose +1.5 goals over Anaheim at 10:05 pm et on Tuesday. The Sharks are reeling right now, losers of six games in a row. With that being said, I do think they're well-positioned to at the very least take the Ducks down to the wire on Tuesday night in Anaheim. Note that while San Jose has lost six consecutive games, only two of those losses came by 2+ goals. The Sharks check in 5-1 this season when playing on the road after allowing 3+ goals in consecutive games this season, outscoring opponents by an impressive average margin of 1.7 goals, allowing only 1.3 goals on average in that spot. They're also a solid 11-5 when coming off consecutive games in which they allowed 4+ goals over the last two seasons, outscoring opponents by 0.2 goals on average in that situation. While San Jose checks in 11-13 on the road this season, it has been outscored by an average margin of only 0.9 goals so the difference between a losing and winning road record isn't all that severe. The Ducks are coming off a 7-4 win in Vancouver on Saturday but that was their first victory in their last five contests. They've averaged just 2.5 goals per game and have been outscored by 0.1 goals on average when coming off a win by 3+ goals against a division opponent, working with a massive 95-game sample size. The Sharks are 6-5 in their last 11 meetings with the Ducks, winning four of their last six games here in Anaheim. Take San Jose +1.5 goals (5*). |
