Happy New Year!!!
We had three tips yesterday and went 1-2.
First the win. I had the Penguins to beat the Wild and they did winning 3-2 in a close game. This was the Pens 6th win in a row.
Our first loss was the Lightning to win in regulation against the Ducks. The Lightning did win but the game needed OT where the Bolts won 2-1.
The other loss was the Stars to win in regulation against the Canadiens but the Habs won this game 3-2 in OT. I has figured the Stars would have been flying for this game and they were taking 47 shots but Montreal was just the better team in this game.
Only 3 games today and one of them, the Bruins vs the Blackhawks, is played outdoors at Notre Dame Stadium. Yes these games look nice but they are to hard to predict with mother nature having such a huge role in the outcome. I wont be having any tips for that game. I will have only one tip for today’s action. The outdoor game starts in a couple hours so I’ll keep these short so people have time to discuss todays action in the comments.
Flyers vs Predators Betting Tips:
The Preds were looking at taking their 7th straight loss yesterday but scored 5 unanswered goals to comeback and beat the Caps 6-3.
That comeback is going to spark the Preds and give them the momentum to get back on track and fix the bruises that the losing skid may have given them.
The Flyers give up a pile of goals. They are ranked 29th in the league in goals allowed per game with 3.58.
The Preds are heavily favored in this one so I’m a little reluctant to take them with the odds being so bad. Instead I’ll go with the over as it’s a rare 5.5.
Over 5.5 incl OT/SO: 0.5u
Canada: 1.77 Odds at Sports Interaction
USA: -130 Odds at Bovada
Everyone Else: 1.76 Odds at BetOnline.
