There was no NHL Tips yesterday, but it was a fun night of hockey. The Jackets got a good win against the Leafs which was an important one for them.
We were leaning towards the Blues yesterday and they got a 2-0 win over the Red Wings in a tight game. As I said yesterday we would have taken that but just weren’t fans of the odds on that one.
The Flames beat the Flyers 3-1 as the Flyers struggles continue. They’re getting the shots on net but they’re just not going in. Sometimes it appears they’re trying to be fancy when your goal should just to be to put the puck in the net.
We were leaning towards the Sharks and the Over in the Sharks/Panthers game and the Over hit as the Panthers beat the Sharks 6-5 in overtime in a great game. What a horrible start to the game that was for the Sharks.
Bigger slate tonight with 8 games.
Islanders vs Rangers Betting Tips:
Always a good game between these two. Rangers are killer lately on the road and offensively while conceding a lot as well. Islanders are hit and miss but coming off that Leafs loss as well as being at home and in this game in particular, I like them to hang tough with the Rangers.
Over 5.5 Goals
Wild vs Stars Betting Tips:
We’ve got a goalie dependent bet here.
If Kuemper is in net: We’ll take the Over 5.5 Goals. the Wild were shut out against the Ducks but man did they try – it was as if Gibson had a concrete wall in front of his net. Don’t see any cause for concern with the offense. Stars are dreadful at the moment but are able to put the puck in the net.
if Dubnyk is in net: We’ll take Wild to win in regulation. Similar to above but Dubnyk doesn’t concede the way Kuemper does obviously.
We’re hearing Kuemper is likely in net.
Penguins vs Jets Betting Tips:
It’s really hard to look beyond the Penguins here. The only negative – and it’s a bit of a big one of course – is that Fleury is in net. That’s why the line in the Over is so high in this one no doubt. Jets offense has been solid but we’ll roll the dice and take the Penguins at home here. Penguins in Regulation.
Kings vs Coyotes Betting Tips:
Have to take the Coyotes to win here with the Kings coming off the bye week. It’s a small sample size but teams coming off their bye week have a piss poor record. I feel there’s value in Arizona tonight due to the bye week.
OHL / WHL / AHL Betting Tips::
(All below systems are based mainly on mathematics and statistics with very little human input and are deemed experimental. Previous Records: OHL 15/16 28-15 (+17.15u)
OHL Betting Tips(19-14, +3.17u): Peterborough Petes in regulation 1.70.

> Coyotes to win (Big Value like Graeme said)
Same thoughts here. Kuemper should allow at least 3 goals and Wild to score 4. As Graeme said, Coyotes have tremendous value and upside. They’re playing better of late and Smith could stone the Kings.
like LA under
Already wagered that. Under 18 out of 23 games for LA after 3 st road games. I expect the rust in Kings offense after the bye week.
Got a nice adjusted total win for 2.30 odds yesterday in that Flyers/Flames game. Posted picks have hit two days in a row! I love the way the Rangers are playing right now, their offense is rolling, scoring 4 goals in 5 of their last 7 games (3+ in 6/7). Lundqvist has won 5 straight starts and the Rangers have won 8 of their last 9 road games. The Islanders always play them tough, but I like the Rangers to score tonight, especially with the way Greiss has been in net in his last 5 starts (2-3, 20 GA, 4.00 GAA).
NY Rangers TT OVER 2.5 (1.667)
Looks great! I will play it. Rangers will definitely score. I think they’ll win but about 75% sure of that.
you had another great night again good one big guy!!
Thanks man! I almost prefer a small card because it’s easier to break the games down.
Combo regular time: Penguins, Blues and Flyers.
2-1 last night
Tonight I’m all about the over
Pens/Jets over 5.5
Wild/Stars over 5.5
Isles/Rangers over 5.5
Thoughts?
GLTA!
Hold on a sec….(opens pantry room door, grabs the broom)..SWEEP!
Hahaha Henry!
I added Oilers in reg, what do you think?
I have that already wagered. Flyers 1-7-2 L10 in B2B situation. Oilers to revenge last loss in Philly. Edm 5-1 @home vs Flyers.
Good luck!
Think the pens are missing speed right now with guys like hags out.
Yeah, they do miss some speed atm. But with Malkin back they will get the extra and against a Jets team that is on fire at offence, with Fleury (confirmed) in net, i’m going for the OVER, good luck!
I could see the Rags/Isles going Under 5.5 pretty easily. Rivalry games usually mean more intensity and better quality play with fewer break downs and lapses which generally leads to lower scoring. In this game I could see it going either way but I’d lean under. The other two I’d lean over 5.5 but don’t love either. For me its Pens Sabres and Oilers in reg tonight.
It might go both way in these rivalry matches. Both team have a lot of quality and I think it will be a high scoring match, and a exciting one too! Good luck
Isles have been very leaky on defense just look at the effort in the leafs game. I feel the rangers play a similar fast paced game that will create a few chances. Isles looking to rebound from that dismal loss. That’s why I like the over
1st ticket 4 team parlay NJ ML, NYR ML, BUFF ML, YOTES UNDER
Tonight tips,
Islanders win %90
Kings win %100
Good luck!
Going for underdogs tonight, avalanche, jets, stars and canucks, attactive ML odds considering factors like wild having Darcy Kuemper in net, pens having Marc-Andre Fleury and each respective team having good performances overall against its opposition in tonights matchups with the exception of maybe Jets vs Pens, but as I said Fleury in net and he is terrible.
He has won his last 7 home starts, allowing 2 goals or less in 4 of those 7 start. Fleury that is.
Connor Hellebuyck is better at the moment in my opinion and although the Jets aren’t performing spectactular at the moment, I do feel the combination of Fleury instead of of Murray and the injuries Pens have will play a factor in that match. Could be a tight game.
Well I disagree with you there. Hellebuyck, especially on the road is just as bad if not worse than Fleury. The Islanders have lost 5 of his last 7 starts, he has allowed 3+ goals in 8 of his last 12 starts, and 3+ in 4 of his last 5 road starts. Jets defense is allowing 3.63 G/g over the last 8 games.
What do you think about the other picks? I’ll probably stick with the Jets (ML) because there is value there
I wouldn’t bet a dime on the Avs. They just look awful every single night. The Stars have value with Kuemper in net. I don’t know about the Canucks. The Blues have been pretty good in back to backs, and Allen is great at home. Could be another tight game like last night.
you out there?
half way through 1st and Hellebuyck 6 shots – 2 goals
Got the win with fla/sj over last night 5 goals in the 1st period was nice.
Tonight I got Winnipeg/Pittsburgh Over 1.5 -130 1st period. Total opened at 6 and now is 6.5. I like this angle when the total is posted at 6 or 6.5 I play over 1.5 1st period. Fleury starting also helps…his GAA is 3.17
I tailed you here and glad I did! Pens off to a great start 2-0
Good stuff….that’s all I want is other people to profit and myself too. I hope u didn’t tail me on the cbj/pens 1 though….crash and burned on that 1.
Kevin Klein maybe out for the NYR that will hurt them maybe
Blues in reg
Avs ML
Yotes ML
Jets ML
Jets ML?
By the living Gawd that made you,
You’re a better man than I am, Gunga Din!
I would bet against Jets
of course! they’re down 2-0 after 12 mins in the first
Unlucky last night. I can’t believe the Sharks came back from 2 goals down in the last 3 minutes. Especially the tying goal was just stupid, when Luongo got injured and couldn’t get up the make the save.
On to tonight:
Rangers ML
Blues in reg
Coyotes-Kings O5 (tired team + bye week for Kings, should be interesting)
GL !
what are you complaining about? I had the Sharks to win
;-p~
Been frequenting the site for about 1yr n half love all the banter and picks. Mine tonight included…
Isles/rags over 5.5
Sens win
Devils haven’t been great, defense is lackluster. Best defender is Corey Schneider but they can’t stop the onslaught of the Sens players.
Leans included Blues and Oilers
Disclaimer I’m an Isles fan
You’re a Pats fan and not a Bs fan?
2 out for 4 last night, for a fairly profit due to the SJ – FLO OT.
Rangers reg
Sabres -1.5
Blues reg
Penguins -1.5
Oilers reg
Coyotes – Kings O5
Pens off to a great start!
Too many parlay’s to list gl all$$$
Agree with the thoughts about Sens rolling over Devils. Devils have shown some fight lately, but with the exception of CBJ have only beaten teams with losing records. I think Sens are the better team and will win in regulation.
LAK-Yotes under 5 – Bit of a risk here, but LAK will be rusty on offence and even with Yotes having some luck around the net recently I think Kings tight up and shut them down.
Flyers-Oilers under – aside from the odd game here and there, neither team has had much success scoring. Flyers defense is pretty stingy.
Blues ML – Blues have been on a tear (see what a coaching change can do Bruins fans?) and Nucks are at a tail end of a grueling roadie. Blues steamroll Nucks tonight in regulation.
Stars-Wild over – two explosive offences with two leaky goalies makes for a 6-5 or 7-3 score.
Pens all over Jets tonight. I have 2 units on reg and 1 unit on PL
Rangers have been playing lights out and they’ll prevail in this subway game. I like them to score 2. 5+ too.

GLTA
That exactly my though about Devils but then i saw that they barrely won any games at home this year.. I’m not saying they gonna win tonight but i think they deserve a bit more credit then this even with the crappy home records. NJD is not Colorado after all.
other then that looking good as usual 🙂
