We took the day off from having tips to try and regroup. Sorry for the delay with the tips today. It’s Family Day in Ontario and I have been hanging out with my kids.
The Oilers beat the Hurricanes 4-3 in overtime. Draisaitl had another big game scoring a goal and adding two assists. He leads the league in points with 95 which is 13 points ahead of Pastrnak who is in 2nd.
The Devils beat the Blue Jackets 4-3 in a shootout and Blackwood made 52 saves in the win. The Devils traded Andy Greene to the Islanders. He was the captain for the last 5 years and has played his entire 14 year career as a Devil. They also traded Blake Coleman to the Lightning. Who will be next to be traded by the Devils?
The Sabres beat the Leafs 5-2. The game was tied 2-2 in the 3rd but the Sabres scored 3 goals in 90 seconds and held on for the win. The Leafs dropped to 7-7-1 after going 9-0-1. Coach Sheldon Keefe said that this is the “Worst we have been in a really long time”
We have 5 games today and 3 of them start at 4pm.
Capitals vs Knights Betting Tips
The Caps have the best road record in the league going 21-7-1. The had their 4 game road win streak snapped in their last game against the Coyotes.
The Knights are in 3rd in the Pacific and have gone 5-3-2 over their last 10 games. They have been inconsistent for most of the season.
This is a tough game to call but its the Caps road record and the odds that make this a tip for me.
Capitals win incl OT/SO – 1u
Canada: 2.15 Odds at Sports Interaction
USA: +116 Odds at BetOnline.
Everyone Else: 2.15 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
(Odds correct as of 2020/02/17 12:00:02 PM EST but are subject to change.)
Lightning vs Avalanche Betting Tips
The Lightning are looking for their franchise record 11th straight win here. They have won their last 10 including 5 on the road.
The Avalanche have gone 7-3 over their last 10 but have dropped their last 2. In their last game, the outdoor game against the Kings, they lost Goaltender Philipp Grubauer who was knocked over by teammate Ian Cole.
That loss could hurt the Avs if he is to miss a big chunk of games.
Lightning are firing on all cylinders here and the Avs have lost their last 2 games and now will be without their starting goalie.
Lightning win incl OT/SO – 1u
Canada: 1.80 Odds at Sports Interaction
USA: -113 Odds at BetOnline.
Everyone Else: 1.80 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
