One tip yesterday and we won it.
We had over 6.5 in the Leafs vs Flames game and the Leafs won 6-2. It shows how deep the Leafs are when 5 of the 6 goals came from players other than Matthews, Tavares or Marner. Tyler Ennis scored the first hat trick of his career in this one. Zach Hyman scored a pair and Marner scored once and added two assists and now has 81 points on the year.
The other game of the night was the Oilers vs the Sabres. The Sabres were up 3-1 after the 1st but the Oilers responded with 3 of their own in the 2nd and held on for the 4-3 win.
Back to a full night of NHL action with 10 games. A bunch of the games are mismatches on paper so the odds aren’t great. I did manage to come up with two tips though.
Blue Jackets vs Devils Betting Tips:
The Jackets made big moves at the deadline only to stumble with the new players losing 3 of their last 4.
The Devils are 19 points out the playoffs and its not going to get any better for them. They have 9 players out with injuries including Taylor Hall, Kyle Palmieri and Nico Hischier.
The Jackets have had success against the Devils and should use this game to try and turn things around and get back into the playoffs. They can sweep the season series with a win in this game.
Jackets in regulation: 0.5u
Canada: 1.83 Odds at BetOnline.
USA: -125 Odds at Bovada
Everyone Else: 1.83 Odds at BetOnline.

Canadiens vs Kings Betting Tips:
The Habs have been off since Saturday night when they lost to the Pens 5-1. They should be rested for this game which is the first of three they will play out West.
Before that loss the Habs had won 4 of 6. With a strong road trip here they can get better position in the standings. They sit in the 8th and final playoff spot but are only two points ahead of Columbus who are in 9th.
The Kings beat the Hawks on Saturday to stop their losing skid at 10 but this team is to far gone in the standings. I like a rested and motivated Habs team in this one.
Canadiens win incl OT/SO: 0.5u
Canada: 1.74 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
USA: -135 Odds at Bovada
Everyone Else: 1.74 Odds at Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv
