10 games yesterday and went 1-1 with the tips
Had Ducks to beat the Rangers and they did 5-3 for their 4th straight win. Also had the Knights in regulation against the Flyers but the Flyers won 2-1.
MacKinnon had 2 goals and an assist to reach 1100 for his career when the Avs beat the Caps 5-2. Sharks beat the Panthers 4-1. Wild doubled up the Leafs 6-3.
Tkachuk made his season debut for the Panthers when they lost 4-1 to the Sharks and this game had a rare goalie fight. Toews made his return to Chicago as a member of the Jets and the Hawks won 2-0.
8 games tonight.
Senators vs Jackets
Just play at the end of December and the Jackets won that one 4-1.
The Sens lost their last 2 games but both were in OT so they are on a 4 game point streak. Still with Sanderson’s comment and the locker room drama that was already there, I find them a tough team to predict.
The Jackets brought in Bowness as head coach and have won 4 in a row.
The odds for this one are really close and I get that as this game could go either way.
Sharks vs Lightning
These teams just played on January 3rd with the Lightning winning 7-3 where Kucherov had a 5 point game.
The Sharks played yesterday.
The Lightning had their win streak snapped at 11 games with a shootout loss and won their last game. They are on a 13 game point streak.
Would have to take the Lightning -1.5 and thats only around 1.80 so just not worth it.
Wild vs Canadiens
Wild played the Leafs yesterday.
The Canadiens are playing well going 6-3-1 in last 10 and are 13-10-1 at home. For them it would help to have a higher win percentage in Montreal.
The odds for a Habs win are bad so I have to pass.
Bruins vs Stars
Bruins on fire winning 6 in a row. Only real problem I see with them this season is their away record which is 11-11-1.
The Stars are on a 3 game skid and are 2-6-2 in last 10. Have played well at home going 12-7-3
Bruins have better numbers in CF, SF, GF/60 and GA/60. This is going to be a tough game but they do have the edge in the above mentioned stats and are on a 6 game win streak. The odds for this also helped play a role in the tip.
Bruins win incl OT/SO

Blues vs Jets
Blues are 4-6-0 in last 10 and are 5-8-0 against teams from the Central. Just not a team I back generally.
Jets played yesterday. They have lost 2 in a row. With them just playing its a pass.
Sabres vs Predators
Sabres played the Hurricanes yesterday.
The Preds are floating around .500 this season going 23-21-4. At home they’re 13-10-2.
Sabres rank better in GPG and GAPG but they just played so I’m passing.
Devils vs Oilers
Devils played the Flames yesterday and won 2-1 in overtime.
The Oilers are playing well. They have won 2 in a row by a combined 11-0 score. Even the game before that was a loss but it was a 1-0 loss to the Isles so they are playing well defensively.
The numbers are close for pretty much each category so it makes this a pass.
Rangers vs Kings
The Rangers played yesterday.
The Kings are on a 4 game losing skid and are at home where they have gone 7-10-7.
It’s a pass for me here.
You mean incl ot right? On bruins.
He said “in regulation”. That means no OT. It means a win in 60 minutes. If it’s a draw, therefore it goes in OT, the bet is lost.
Yes, I’m aware of that, but it contradicts the advised odds which indicates incl ot/so…
Yep I believe he means OT I have sent him a message to fix it thanks
