Well I had one tip yesterday and lost.
I learned the hard way that the Panthers aren’t a road team. The Flames beat them with ease 5-1.
The Canucks beat the Preds 3-1 which hurt the Preds in the standings as they still sit in 3rd with 51 points in 41 games, the Blues are in 2nd with 51 in 39 games and the Avs are 1st with 53 points in 36 games.
The Canes pounded the Bruins 7-1, the Isles beat the Flyers again 4-3 in overtime which was the Flyers 9th loss in a row. The Habs beat the Stars 5-3 snapping their 6 game losing skid.
A nice and slow night of hockey with only 3 games. After this have to go spend a couple hours shoveling and plowing as we got even more snow.
Coyotes vs Devils Betting Tips:
The Coyotes are coming off of their biggest win of the season when they beat the Habs 5-2. They hadn’t beat a team by more than 2 goals since May in 2021.
The Devils have lost their last 2 but in the 4 games before this they went 3-1.
The Devils are the favorites here and even a regulation win is under our 1.70 minimum so I’m skipping this game.
Leafs vs Rangers Betting Tips:
Matthews has been on fire. He can tie an NHL record if he scores in this game which would give him goals in 11 straight road games. His play has helped the Leafs go 5-1-1 over their last 7 games and 6-2-2 over their last 10 road games.
The Rangers have gone 6-2 over their last 8 games and are at home where they have gone 10-3-2.
They have played each other twice already with both teams picking up a 2-1 win.
I won’t to take the Leafs here as they have been feeding off of Matthews amazing road play but the Rangers are a strong team and as mentioned above they are great when at home. I have to skip.
Avalanche vs Ducks Betting Tips:
Another game where to get any value we have to take the Avs -1.5.
The Avalanche are rolling going 8-1-1 over their last 10 games. The Ducks are struggling going 2-6-2 over their last 10.
I want to take the Avs here and it would have to be -1.5. The Ducks have dropped 3 in a row and all 3 were by at least 3 goals. But the Avs have played 9 games this month and 5 of them have gone to extra time.
I feel it may be safer to just skip this game. I’m leaning towards the Avs -1.5 but just a little hesitant to make it a tip.
