Sorry about the delay in tips today. Despite a lot of games it’s a tricky night and we wanted to wait and really analyze each game. It’s one of those nights where a LOT of potential bets jump out at us but we want to settle on a select few.
Another perfect night last night as we went 1-0 with our NHL Tips.
We had the Wild/Flames to go Over 5 goals and it went over with ease. The Minnesota Wild took a strong 3-0 lead. The Flames made it an interesting game by clawing back to 3-2 but props to the Wild for staying strong and John Torchetti must just be loving life at the moment.
I think we’re at new coach time for the Habs. A few months ago, Montreal said they would stick with Therrien until the end of the season and I was happy with that decision. However now I have to say that the guy has go to go. I think the Habs problems are deeper than just a coach – but I do think a lot of the problems these days are because of him and we need someone fresh to sort things out.
Blackhawks vs Rangers was a great game. Those two had a lot of tight, defensive clinics in recent matchups against each other so it was nice to see a goal fest for a change.
It’s Thursday, February 18th 2016 and we have 11 games for you tonight. A lot of real interesting ones. Rangers coming off that loss last night – can they bounce back against the Leafs, or will Toronto pull another upset? Minnesota visit Edmonton on a high, but is McDavid going to bring Torchetti back down to earth?
Looking forward to the games today. Let’s get to the tips:
Penguins vs Red Wings Betting Tips:
The Penguins are back to struggling again and finding it hard to score. Such an up and down season for them.
The Red Wings however have had 3 huge road defeats since the all star break. They do have Mrazek in net which is cause for concern as he has been solid in recent games but we still like the Penguins at home here to get the win.
Penguins to win.

what’s your site?

Site? What do you mean?
Red Wings ML – loving the predictions tonight but unfortunately I have to go with the Detroit win. The Pens are struggling to score as you guys mentioned and they are riddled with injuries….Fleury is inconsistent this year and Mrazek is looking for a big bounce back game after allowing 5 GA against Boston on his 24th birthday. Gotta say Detroit 4-2 in this one….I expect Larkin to contribute as he’s gone 4 contests without any points.
Perfect 3-0 last night.
Islanders
Red Wings
Hurricanes-Senators OT
Rangers
Sharks
Jets
Preds
Kings
Stars-Coyotes OT

Kings win %100
Stars win %100
Good luck!
Last night was good for me. Did anyone take the BS over? They absolutely crushed it!
Wings-Pens Over – Lots of fire power on both teams
Caps ML – both teams are playing well, but I think Caps are better team and Holtby owns the Isles.
NYR -1.5 – good value but small bet because they played a tough one last night and Raanta will be in goal and he’s shaky
Wild over 2.5 – against Talbot? Uh, yah!
Stars-Yotes over – high octane Stars who have a leaky Riemi in net vs a feisty Yotes team. Lots of goals tonight.
Stars-Yotes over 1.5
NYR score first
Wild score first
good luck. I’ll probably give it all back so do the opposite of what I say.
Just subscribed here today. Good Job tonight! I took three of your picks and cashed large. Cheers mate.
I was worried you guys had forgot about us today. Its kind of funny how much I look forward to the discussion on the day’s games.
I will throw my 2 cents in which doesn’t count for much as most of the games have started by now, but here is what I was looking at today.
Caps -1.5
Pens ML
Rangers -1.5
Sens – 1.5
Bolts -1.5
Sharks -1.5
Blues ML
Bruins -1.5
Wild ML
Stars -1.5
Ducks ML
I was thinking of trying a couple round robins on 4 pucklines as I’ve never done that and see how it works out.
9 of 11 teams right but my scores were off … Sens and Rangers covered my round robin attempt so that wasnt a complete failure …
– Very solid night again –
W’s: Rangers Win, Tampa Win, Star Lose
+4.5-Combo: WIN
Both to score 2 goals: Dallas Win, Caps Win, Preds Lose
