Well after two perfect nights, our winning streak stopped.
We had over 5 in the Bruins vs Penguins game. But it was Boston winning 2-0. It didn’t help that Crosby was a last minute scratch and that Malkin left in the first after taking a hit.
We also had over in the Rangers -Sabres game but the Rangers won 2-0. New York’s MacKenzie Skapski earned a shutout in his second career NHL start.
We had the Flames to beat the Avs but the Avs won 3-2.
The Flyers pounded the Red Wings 7-2. Big game from Brayden Schenn who had 2 goals and an assist. The Hawks beat the Sharks 6-2 thanks to a 4 goal 3rd period from Chicago. Habs beat the Isles 3-1 and for the Isles that was their 3rd loss in a row.
The Kings beat the Preds 2-1, Wild over the Blues 3-1 and the Jets beat the Lightning 2-1. Great night of hockey overall.
A nice busy day of hockey today with 7 games. Let’s get back to winning with the NHL betting tips for Sunday March 15th.
Bruins vs Capitals Betting Tips
This is going to be a great game and a battle for the first wild card spot in the East.
These teams are tied for 7th & 8th in the East with 82 points with the Bruins holding the lead thanks to a having a game in hand.
This is the 2nd of 3 games between the clubs this season with the Caps winning the first 4-0.
With so much on the line this should be a great game.
Over 5 for 1.77
Panthers vs Rangers Betting Tips
Rangers are on fire as they have been all of 2015. They’re 13-1-3 over their last 17 and return home after going 4-0-1 on their 5 game road trip.
The Panthers are on a 3 game win streak and sit in 9th place in the East and are 6 points out of the playoffs.
This is the 3rd and final meeting for these teams with the Rangers winning the first two games 5-2 & 6-3.
They have owned the Panthers this season and it’s really hard to bet against the Rangers at this point as they go for the season series sweep.
Rangers in Regulation for 1.76 at Bovada for Americans and http://www.Bet365.com for everyone else.
Blues vs Stars Betting Tips
4th of 5 games between these two. With the Blues winning the first in Dallas 4-3 in OT but the Stars won the next two in St. Louis 4-3 & 4-1.
The Blues are in a bit of a funk of late going 5-4-1 over their last 10. The Stars are on a 3 game winning streak but still sit 6 points out of the final wild card spot.
I expect this game to be a high scoring one where the Blues are going to try and gain some revenge while helping their case for home ice in the playoffs. And the Stars will be going all out knowing that every loss is one step further from the postseason.

I think getting 2 as a price for STL tonight is worth the bet.
