05-03-24 | Canucks v. Predators -122 | 1-0 | Loss | -122 | 41 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on NASH. The most important player in a playoff series is almost always the goaltender, and that is not good news for the Vancouver Canucks. Their #1 goaltender Thatcher Demko is sidelined with an injury, and now they have to choose between a struggling backup netminder or and inexperienced third string goaltender. Nashville rallied to win in OT in Game 5, and I like their chances of forcing a Game 7 in Vancouver. GL, Jesse Schule |

05-02-24 | Bruins +100 v. Maple Leafs | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on BOS. The Bruins are in a revenge spot here after losing Game 5 on home ice. Head coach Jim Mongomery lamented a slow start: "We wanted to review the game and where we went wrong," said Montgomery. "We started talking about where we need to get better. Some of that's physical. Some of it is mental. Some of it is staying in the moment. I don't think we did a good enough job staying in the moment last night. That's what we're looking for [in our] next game." We should see the Bruins come out like gangbusters in Game 6, and superior goaltending should allow them to end the series in Toronto. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-30-24 | Maple Leafs v. Bruins -160 | 2-1 | Loss | -160 | 40 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on BOS. I had the Bruins in Game 1, and here is what I said before the series started: "The Bruins have been historically one of the most successful teams in history in the NHL Playoffs. That includes recent history as well as long term. The Leafs on the other hand are notorious for their futility in the playoffs. Boston has owned the Leafs, sweeping the season series and winning seven straight meetings dating back to January of 2023. The most important factor in a playoff series is almost always goaltending, and the Leafs starter Ilya Samsonov has allowed 11 goals on 52 shots in his last two starts. He ranks 38th in the 32 team league with a GAA of 3.18. The Bruins starter Jeremy Swayman ranks in the Top 10 in GAA (2.53) and Top 5 in save percentage (.916). Boston is tougher, better defensively and built for success in the post-season." GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-27-24 | Stars v. Golden Knights -108 | 3-2 | Loss | -108 | 17 h 24 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on VGK Dallas finished first in the Western Conference during the regular season, but if you're a Stars fan you might as well whipe your backside with the paper that those standings was printed on. Dallas finished 15 points ahead of the Golden Knights, but that doesn't do them a lick of good here down 0-2 going back to Sin City for Game 3. For whatever reason, the Knights have their number. The defending champs won last season's Western Conference Final in six games, after going up 3-0 in the first three games of the series. You know History Repeats Itself! GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-26-24 | Jets v. Avalanche -163 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 18 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Colorado. The Avs have the best home record in the NHL, and they come back to Denver with the series tied 1-1. In other words, they have em right where they want em! When you look at Colorado's Game 1 loss it's significant that they owned a 46-23 edge in shots on goal, and if you look at more advanced analytics they held an edge of 4.83 to 2.16 in expected goal situations. The bottom line is that the Avs goaltending let them down. Alex Georgiev though is 24-6 with a 2.75 GAA at home this season. The better team should get the win on home ice here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-22-24 | Maple Leafs v. Bruins -134 | 3-2 | Loss | -134 | 20 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on BOS. Here is what I said prior to Game 1: "The Bruins have been historically one of the most successful teams in history in the NHL Playoffs. That includes recent history as well as long term. The Leafs on the other hand are notorious for their futility in the playoffs. Boston has owned the Leafs, sweeping the season series and winning seven straight meetings dating back to January of 2023.

Boston is tougher, better defensively and built for success in the post-season." It became immediately clear that the Leafs have goaltending issues, and it's unlikely that they can correct that overnight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-21-24 | Avalanche v. Jets -105 | 6-7 | Win | 100 | 41 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on WPG. The Jets host the Avs in Game 1 of the first round, and Colorado is a public favorite to win the Stanley Cup. The Avs are almost unbeatable on home ice, but this is the great white north, and not an easy place to play. Winnipeg has the better goaltender in perennial Vezina candidate Connor Hellebuyck, who is 2nd in the NHL in save percentage (.921), and wins (37), as well as Top 5 in GAA (2.39). The Jets come in riding an eight game win streak. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-20-24 | Maple Leafs v. Bruins -120 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 18 h 5 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on BOS. The Bruins have been historically one of the most successful teams in history in the NHL Playoffs. That includes recent history as well as long term. The Leafs on the other hand are notorious for their futility in the playoffs. Boston has owned the Leafs, sweeping the season series and winning seven straight meetings dating back to January of 2023. The most important factor in a playoff series is almost always goaltending, and the Leafs starter Ilya Samsonov has allowed 11 goals on 52 shots in his last two starts. He ranks 38th in the 32 team league with a GAA of 3.18. The Bruins starter Jeremy Swayman ranks in the Top 10 in GAA (2.53) and Top 5 in save percentage (.916). Boston is tougher, better defensively and built for success in the post-season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-18-24 | Seattle Kraken v. Wild -145 | 4-3 | Loss | -145 | 16 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on MIN. In a game between two teams that have long been eliminated from the playoffs, on the last day of the regular season, we like the home team coming off back to back road wins. The Kraken have lost six of their last seven versus the Wild, and Minnesota has just enough momentum to motivate them to give a good showing on home ice in their final game this season. The Kraken have one foot on the golf course, off season plans at the top of mind. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-16-24 | Red Wings -164 v. Canadiens | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on DET. |
|||||||
04-15-24 | Canadiens v. Red Wings -190 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 26 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on DET. The Wings are still in a good spot to clinch a Wild Card spot, wrapping up the season with a home and home against Montreal. The Habs have long been eliminated from the playoffs, and their minds should be on the gold course. The Wings have won five of the last seven in this series, and the Habs have lost five of their last six overall. This should be a one-sided affair in the Motor City. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-15-24 | Predators v. Penguins -123 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 18 h 37 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on PIT. The Pens are still alive in the Wild Card race, but they need to win out and hope Washington and or Detroit slip up. They host Nashville tonight, and the Preds have already booked their ticket to the playoffs. The Pens have won five of the last seven meetings in this series, and all three home games during that span. Sidney Crosby has turned back the clock, scoring six goals and adding five assists in his last seven games. The Pens should take care of business in Steel Town tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-13-24 | Wild v. Sharks +1.5 | 6-2 | Loss | -130 | 19 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SJS +1.5. The Sharks are not a good hockey team, but this might be a good spot for them playing their final home game against a Minnesota Wild team that has recently been eliminated for the playoffs and was blown out by a score of 7-2 in Las Vegas last night. Since Marc Andre Fleury got the start last night, we should see Filip Gustavson between the pipes tonight. He's lost four of his last five starts, and he's allowed nine goals in his last two starts. The Sharks are 5-2 ATS in their last seven overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-13-24 | Canucks v. Oilers -130 | 3-1 | Loss | -130 | 18 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on EDM. The Oilers still have plenty to play for here with just a few games left in the regular season. They trail both Winnipeg and Colorado by two points, and home ice advantage in the first round is up for grabs if they can catch either of those two teams. The Oilers host Vancouver, and the Canucks have been struggling. Vancouver has lost six of nine, and their #1 goaltender hasn't seen the ice since March. Thatcher Demko is rumored to be ready to return, but how sharp can he be after a long layoff. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-13-24 | Red Wings +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 15 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on DET +1.5. The Maple Leafs are currently sitting in 5th in the East, and their chances of catching 4th place Florida are pretty slim sitting five points back. The Red Wings are still fighting for a Wild Card spot, sitting just one point back of eighth place Pittsburgh. Detroit has lost seven of their last nine overall, but the Wings are 10-1 ATS in those games. They have won three of their last four versus Toronto, and they are 4-0 ATS in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-12-24 | Wild v. Golden Knights -160 | 2-7 | Win | 100 | 20 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. The Golden Knights loaded up at the trade deadline in preparation for another run at the Stanley Cup. The defending champs still haven't clinched a playoff birth, and while it might be just a technicality they can make it official on home ice tonight as they host the Minnesota Wild. Minnesota has been officially eliminated from the playoffs, and that might have them thinking about the golf course. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-11-24 | Canadiens v. Islanders -196 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 30 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on NYI. The Habs are ready for the golf course, while the Islanders are looking to gear up for a playoff run. New York is far from safe however, just two points clear of the final Wild Card spot in the East. The Penguins and the Capitals are hot on their heels, making tonight's home game versus Montreal a must win. The home team has won five straight in this series, and the Isles should extend that streak tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-11-24 | Red Wings v. Penguins -138 | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 30 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on PIT. The Penguins have won four straight at home, including a 6-3 win over the Detroit Red Wings. These two teams are battling for a Wild Card spot, and Detroit has struggled down the stretch. The Wings have lost six of their last eight overall, and two of those losses came in games against the Capitals who are also fighting for one of the final two playoff spots in the East. After failing to win a must win game over the Caps at home, it's hard to trust Detroit on the road here against Sidney Crosby and the Pens. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-11-24 | Senators v. Lightning -197 | 3-2 | Loss | -197 | 30 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on TB. The Lightning host the Sens in a late season game in Tampa, and the Sens should have one foot on the golf course at this point in the season. Tampa Bay has already locked in a playoff spot, and while they might not be playing for seeding, it's still important to take a bit of momentum into the playoffs. Andrei Vasilevskij was on fire in the month of March, going 8-1 with a 2.39 GAA in 10 starts. He's won five of his last six home starts, and he has a historically good record in his career at home. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-07-24 | Stars v. Avalanche -125 | Top | 7-4 | Loss | -125 | 22 h 52 m | Show |
This is a 4* play on COL. Dallas sits 1st in the Western Conference standings, three points clear of Colorado. The Stars are on the road for the second game of a back to back in Denver tonight, and the Avs have the best home record in the NHL. History favors the home team as Colorado is 6-1 in their last seven versus Dallas and 3-0 at home during that span. Alexandar Georgiev is 23-4 with a 2.54 GAA at home this season. This appears to be a tough spot for the road team. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-06-24 | Oilers -165 v. Flames | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 31 h 40 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on EDM. The Battle of Alberta was once one of the most heated rivalries in sports, but it has been rather one-sided lately. The Oilers have won eight of the last 10, and they are 5-0 in their last five at the Saddledome. The Flames already have one foot on the golf course, while Edmonton is gearing up for a potential Stanley Cup run. The Oilers still have plenty to play for as they jockey for seeding in the Western Conference. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-05-24 | Seattle Kraken v. Ducks +1.5 | 3-1 | Loss | -165 | 19 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ANA +1.5. The Kraken will be a road favorite at Anaheim in a meaningless late season game between two teams that won't be going to the playoffs. These type of situations normally favor the home team, but Anaheim has lost three of their last four home games versus Seattle. A closer look reveals that the Ducks are 5-0 ATS as a puckline underdog in their last five home games versus the Kraken. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-04-24 | Islanders -180 v. Blue Jackets | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 30 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on NYI. The Isles are in Columbus tonight, and this is a must win game as they sit one point back of the final Wild Card sport currently held by Washington. History favors the visitors, as New York has won eight of the last nine head to head and three of their last four at Columbus. The Blue Jackets have the worst record in the Eastern Conference, and any wins at the end of the season will only hurt their potential for a top pick in next year's draft. This will be a motivational mismatch with the Blue Jackets having one foot on the golf course and the Isles eyeing the playoffs. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-03-24 | Canucks v. Coyotes +1.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 22 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ARI +1.5. The Canucks have lost three straight, but they still sit comfortably in first in the Pacific five points ahead of Edmonton. They play the second game of a back to back on the road tonight in Arizona, and they got thrashed in a 6-3 loss Vegas last night. You would assume third string goalie Aturs Silvos will start in net for Vancouver tonight, and he allowed two goals on 22 shots in a 3-2 home win over Anaheim in his NHL debut over the weekend. While Vancouver has won three of the last four head to head meetings, all three wins came in games decided by one goal. Arizona has won five of their last eight, and Josh Doan (son of Coyotes legend Shane Doan) has a pair of goals and three assists in three games since being called up. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-02-24 | Canucks v. Golden Knights -129 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 18 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. The Canucks might have the best record in the Pacific Division, but they have cooled off as the playoffs near. Vancouver is just 4-4 in their last eight, while Vegas is 8-3 in their last 12. The Golden Knights bolstered their roster at the trade deadline in an effort to defend their title. Logan Thompson is 13-5 with a 2.17 GAA in 17 home starts for the Golden Knights. Vancouver is coming off an unimpressive 3-2 home win over Anaheim, avoiding a third straight loss with a later game winner from a guy who has spent the majority of his career in the minors (Dakota Joshua). GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-01-24 | Red Wings v. Lightning -177 | 4-2 | Loss | -177 | 17 h 41 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on TB. The Lightning are holding one of the Wild Card spots in the East, a position that the Red Wings were favored to be in just a few weeks ago. Detroit has just three wins in it's last 15 games, and any hopes of making the playoffs have been dashed. This is a revenge game for Tampa, as they lost at Detroit in January. Andrei Vasilevskij appears to be in Vezina form once again, going 8-1 with a 2.39 GAA in the month of March. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-31-24 | Ducks v. Canucks -1.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -163 | 17 h 60 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VAN. The Canucks have lost back to back games, but the first place team in the Pacific is in a good spot here at home versus Anaheim on Sunday. The Ducks are not going to the playoffs, and they lost 6-1 in Edmonton yesterday. With the Ducks playing the second game of a back to back, this looks like a "get right" game for Vancouver. The Ducks have lost six straight in this series, and their last trip to Vancouver was a 3-1 defeat back in Novermber. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-30-24 | Predators v. Avalanche -168 | 4-7 | Win | 100 | 17 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on COL. The Predators came into Arizona on Thursday as the hottest team in the NHL, but the bubble burst as they lost 8-4 to the Coyotes. The loss ended a streak of 19 straight games earning at least a point. It doesn't get any easier tonight in Colorado. The Avs are just three points out of first in the West, and they have the league's best home record. The Preds are 2-8 in their last 10 versus Colorado, losing all four at Denver during that span. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-28-24 | Predators v. Coyotes +1.5 | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 21 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on ARI. Here is what I said prior to the Coyotes 6-2 win over Columbus: "Neither of these teams are heading to the playoffs, so who is going to be motivated here in Arizona? Well the Coyotes have been competitive at home all year long, and they do have a winning record on home ice. They may have added motivation tonight with the son of Coyotes legend Shane Doan making his NHL debut. The former collegiate player leads all rookies in the AHL with 26 goals and 46 points for the Tuscon Roadrunners. The Coyotes have won three straight head to head versus the Jackets. Columbus has lost eight of it's last 10 overall and five straight on the road." Doan scored two goals in his debut, and the Yotes should be all fired up here as he gets set to play his second career game in the NHL. I like Arizona as a home dog. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-26-24 | Blue Jackets v. Coyotes -147 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 20 h 25 m | Show | |

|||||||
03-23-24 | Senators v. Devils -152 | 5-2 | Loss | -152 | 18 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Devils. While the playoffs are unlikely for the Devils, they are a long lost cause for the Ottawa Senators. New Jersey still has a chance, sitting six points out of the final Wild Card with a dozen games remaining. They addressed their biggest weakness when they picked up Jake Allen via trade, the veteran netminder is 4-1 with a 2.01 GAA since joining the Devils. The Senators have lost three straight, and they have been lit up for 18 goals in those games. I'll take the Devils as a home favorite in this spot. The Sens season is over, while the Devils still have something to play for. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-21-24 | Seattle Kraken v. Golden Knights -185 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 34 h 43 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. I have bet on Vegas in their last two games, and here is what I said prior to a home loss to Tampa: "The Golden Knights are still sitting in the final Wild Card spot in the West, and desperate for some breathing room. With only a dozen games left, a home game against Tampa Bay is a good spot to back the Knights. While Tampa is also sitting in a Wild Card spot, they come off a huge win over Florida in the first game of this road trip, setting them up for a let down tonight. Perennial Vezina candidate Andrei Vasilevskij has struggled this season, posting career worst numbers in GAA and save percentage. Vegas is still pumped up after a haul at the trade deadline, and newly acquired talent will get a chance to shine tonight." The loss puts even more pressure on the Knights tonight, and it comes against lesser opposition. Should be a blowout! GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-19-24 | Lightning v. Golden Knights -134 | 5-3 | Loss | -134 | 16 h 33 m | Show | |

03-17-24 | Devils v. Golden Knights -162 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 14 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. Vegas is back home after losing 4-1 in Calgary on Thursday, hosting a New Jersey Devils team playing the second game of a back to back. The Devils are coming off a 4-1 loss at Arizona, and they are in a downward spiral. New Jersey has fallen all the way to 12th in the Eastern Conference after losing nine of 12. They are six points out of a playoff spot, and hopes are fading. The Vegas Golden Knights made a statement at the trade deadline, and they appear ready to go on a run. The Knights are currently occupying the final Wild Card spot in the West, and surely they have intentions to move up in the standings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-14-24 | Coyotes v. Red Wings -163 | 4-1 | Loss | -163 | 27 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on DET. The Wings are currently out of the playoffs, tied with the New York Islanders with 72 points. The Isles hold the final Wild Card spot by virtue of the tie breaker. With the season hanging in the balance, they host the Arizona Coyotes in a must win game. They couldn't pick a better opponent, as the Coyotes are 5-20 in their last 25 games overall, and only two of those wins came on the road. One of those five wins was a 4-0 shutout win over Detroit, setting up a nice revenge angle here in the Motor City. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-12-24 | Golden Knights -138 v. Seattle Kraken | Top | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 18 h 51 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on VGK. Vegas is serious about defending it's Stanley Cup championship, making a ton of deals at the deadline to shore up their lineup. They added Noah Hanifin, Anthony Mantha and Thomas Hertl, and Mantha and Hanifin are already in the lineup. Vegas has plenty of work to do, as they are currently sitting in the final Wild Card spot in the West. They can't afford to leave any points on the table, and this looks like a good spot to take advantage of a struggling Seattle team. The Kraken are eight points back of the final Wild Card spot, and not a serious contender to make the playoffs. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-24 | Red Wings v. Golden Knights -175 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 14 h 55 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on VGK. The defending champs are slumping, and they find themselves clinging to a Wild Card spot. That makes tonight's game against the Wings a must win. They catch Detroit playing the second game of a back to back off a 4-0 loss in Arizona. Detroit comes in off four straight losses, and they are likely to start their backup goalie here in the second game of a back to back. The Knights got a haul at the trade deadline, widely considered the biggest winners. They should be pumped up on home ice tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-06-24 | Sabres v. Maple Leafs -177 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on TOR. The Leafs are 5th in the Eastern Conference standings, which could be considered underachieving when you consider their payroll. They still have the #2 power play in the league, and that could be the difference here at home versus Buffalo. The Sabres power play is one of the worst in the league, converting on just 16 percent of their chances. The Leafs lost at Buffalo earlier this season by a score of 9-3, setting up a big revenge spot here in Toronto. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-27-24 | Stars v. Avalanche -145 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 21 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on COL. The Stars lost in overtime last night versus the Islanders, and they play the second game of a back to back on the road at Colorado. The Avs have the best home record in the NHL, and they are looking to bounce back from a loss to Toronto on Saturday. The Avs have won five of their last six versus Dallas, and starting goalie Alexander Georgiev is 18-4 with a 2.60 GAA in 22 home starts. Nathan McKinnon (2nd in the NHL in scoring) has tallied 59 points in 28 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-22-24 | Canucks -117 v. Seattle Kraken | 2-5 | Loss | -117 | 21 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VAN. The Canucks have lost three straight, yet they still have the best record in the league. Boston sits just one point back with a game in hand. Vancouver looks to bounce back on the road at Seattle, and this is a spot where they have had some success. They have won seven of the last 10 versus the Kraken, and they are 4-1 in their last five at Seattle. After losing nine of their last 13 overall, the Kraken have slim hopes of playing in the post-season. Going back the last two seasons, Seattle actually has more wins on the road than they have on home ice. This looks like a good spot to back the road favorite. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-17-24 | Hurricanes v. Golden Knights -125 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -125 | 32 h 47 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on VGK. This looks like a let down spot for the Canes, playing the second game of a back to back on the road at Vegas. Only the Colorado Avalanche have more home wins than the Golden Knights, and Vegas might have an even better record if it hadn't been for an injury to starting goaltender Adin Hill. He ranks 1st in the NHL in save percentage, and 2nd in GAA. Hill is 7-2 with a 1.86 GAA 11 home starts. The Canes might turn to Spencer Martin between the pipes in this second game of a back to back, and he's 1-4 with a 3.95 GAA in five road starts. GL, Jesse Schule |

This is a 2* play on BOS. |

02-10-24 | Devils v. Hurricanes -154 | 0-1 | Win | 100 | 27 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on CAR. The Devils got off to a hot start this season, but they come into Carolina as losers of three of their last four. New Jersey is one of the highest scoring teams in the NHL averaging 3.45 goals per game, but the problem is they allow opponents to average a whopping 3.57 goals per game. History favors the Canes who have won six of the last seven meetings and four straight home games versus the Devils. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-07-24 | Lightning v. Rangers -127 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on NYR. The Rangers have won three of the last four meetings in this series, and New York has a solid home record this season (16-7). Veteran netminder Jonathan Quick is 7-1 with a 2.62 GAA at home this season. His counterpart Andrei Vasilevskiy is also far better at home than he is on the road. Vasilevskiy is 6-7 with a 3.26 GAA on the road. He allowed five goals in a loss in his only start versus the Rangers. Tampa has lost six of their last seven at MSG, and this looks like a tough spot coming out of the All Star break. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-06-24 | Oilers v. Golden Knights +1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on VGK. The Oilers were the hottest team in the NHL prior to the All Star break, but over the years I have learned that All Star weekend is where hot streaks and slumps go to die. The Golden Knights have a record of 18-5-2 at home, and only the Colorado Avalanche have more home wins than Vegas. The Knights are listed as the underdog here, and that's likely due to the injury to Jack Eichel. It's my opinion that the return of the #1 ranked goaltender in the NHL (Adin Hill) is more significant than the loss of Jack Eichel. This looks like a case of the wrong team favored. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-05-24 | Islanders +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 21 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a play on NYI +1.5. The Isles are six points out of the final Wild Card spot in the East, currently occupied by the Toronto Maple Leafs. They come into Toronto tonight as losers of four of their last five, but they are 5-0 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. The Leafs have won four of their last five games, but they are just 2-3 ATS as a puckline favorite during that span. History favors the underdog here, as the Isles have won four of the last five head to head meetings. Three of those games went to overtime. We should be expecting another close game here tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-27-24 | Panthers v. Islanders +123 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NYI. The Isles are coming off back to back losses in one goal games. They battled back to tie the game at Montreal only to conceded the game winner late in the third period. Prior to that they dominated play against the Golden Knights but ran into a hot goaltender. Now they are back at home, catching the Florida Panthers in the second game of a back to back after winning in a shootout last night. The Islanders are playing just their fourth game under new head coach Patrick Roy, and they are likely to be the more motivated team here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-26-24 | Kings v. Avalanche -135 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 15 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on COL. So the Avs are now tied with Winnipeg for the top spot in the Central Division. They take a struggling LA Kings team that has fallen to fourth place in the Pacific. The Kings have one of the best road records in the NHL, but they have lost five of their last six on the road. Look no further than goaltending, as Cam Talbot is 0-5-2 with a 4.04 GAA in his last seven starts. Alexander Georgiev is 15-3 with a 2.67 GAA at home this season. The Kings are 3-7 in their last 10 versus Colorado. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-25-24 | Islanders -146 v. Canadiens | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -146 | 20 h 9 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on NYI. The Isles won in OT in Patrick Roy's coaching debut, and they ran into a hot goaltender in his second game behind the bench. They held a 42-27 advantage in shots on goal, but they lost 3-2 to Adin Hill and the Vegas Golden Knights. Now it will be a return to Montreal for Patrick Roy, which is sure to be an emotional experience. The Habs have lost six of eight, and they will likely prove no match for an Islanders squad highly motivated to make a good impression on their new coach. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-21-24 | Stars v. Islanders +100 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 24 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NYI. This is a play on spot for New York, who have recently hired Hall of Fame goaltender Patrick Roy as their new head coach. We saw the St. Louis Blues win five of six after firing their coach, and the Edmonton Oilers are the hottest team in the NHL since firing their head coach. The Isles catch Dallas playing the second game of a back to back. Islanders netminder Ilya Sorokin is 9-3 with a 2.95 GAA at home this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-20-24 | Penguins v. Golden Knights +100 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 22 h 34 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on VGK. The Knights host the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday night, and the bookmakers might have over compensated for the injury to Jack Eichel. Vegas is riding a hot goaltender in Logan Thompson, who is 10-4 with a 2.16 GAA at home this season. He's also posted a 2.17 GAA in the month of January. The Golden Knights have the best home record in the NHL, with 17 wins in Sin City. They also have the edge in special teams play, and the Penguins struggling power play might just cost them here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-16-24 | Kings v. Stars -125 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 16 h 50 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Dallas. These two teams are trending in opposite directions. The Kings have lost eight of their last nine overall, and five of their last six on the road. They #1 goaltender Cam Talbot is 0-5 with a 3.59 GAA in his last five starts. The Stars have won three of their last four, and they are just five points out of first place in the Central Division. The Stars have won four of their last five home games against LA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-13-24 | Bruins v. Blues +1.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 20 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Blues. The Bruins come limping into St. Louis at the end of a brutal road trip. Not only did they lose all three games at Vegas, Arizona and Colorado, but all three games went to overtime. The Bruins are 3-0 in their last three versus the Blues, but two of those wins came in OT. The Blues are 6-3 ATS as a puckline dog in the last nine meetings. The Blues have a better home record than the Bruins have on the road... could this be a case of the wrong team favored? GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-12-24 | Predators +1.5 v. Stars | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 7 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NASH. The Preds will look to bounce back from a poor performance, losing at home to the Anaheim Ducks. The Stars are coming off back to back wins over Minnesota, and could be due for a let down. History suggests we could see a close game, as despite Dallas winning six of the last 10 meetings, the Preds are 7-3 ATS in those games. We might see backup netminder Scott Wedgewood start for Dallas, giving the visitors an edge between the pipes. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-11-24 | Seattle Kraken v. Capitals UNDER 6 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 19 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Seattle Kraken are the hottest team in the league, riding the hottest goaltender in the NHL. Seattle has won seven straight, and Joey Dacord is 6-0 with a 1.00 GAA during that span. The Kraken are in Washington tonight, and the Caps welcome back their top netminder, who ranks Top 5 in the league in GAA. These two teams failed to reach the total in both meetings last season, and this looks like a potential goaltending duel. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-09-24 | Panthers v. Blues +1.5 | 5-1 | Loss | -165 | 15 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL +1.5. The Blues are playing far better since firing head coach Craig Berube, yet they are an underdog at home versus Florida. The Panthers have won seven straight, but the final game of a road trip could be a let down spot. History favors the Blues who are 6-2 in the last eight meetings, and 8-0 as a puckline underdog during that span. Binnington has allowed just two goals in his last two starts, and he's 9-4 with a 2.87 GAA at home this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-09-24 | Seattle Kraken v. Sabres UNDER 6.5 | 5-2 | Loss | -120 | 12 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Kraken come into Buffalo as winners of six straight, and they have gone under the total in all six of those games. They are riding a red hot goaltender in Joey Dacord, who is 5-0 with a 1.00 GAA over his last five starts. The Sabres own one of the worst power play units in the NHL, and Seattle is only slightly better. Buffalo has failed to reach the total in four of their last five games, and the under is 12-6 in their last 18 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-06-24 | Senators v. Oilers -193 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on EDM. The Oilers have won six in a row, and they are 13-3 since firing Jay Woodcroft. The Oilers have won four of their last five home games against the Senators, and they covered the puckline in all of those wins. The Senators come in with a 4-10 road record, and they lost both the first two games of this road trip by a combined score of 10-4. This game could well be decided on special teams, and Edmonton's top ranked power play matches up against the Senators 29th ranked penalty killing unit. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-04-24 | Islanders v. Coyotes UNDER 6 | 5-1 | Push | 0 | 20 h 55 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Islanders will be a slight favorite on the road at Arizona tonight, and these teams have a history of playing low scoring games. The under is 8-1-1 in the last 10 head to head meetings, and five of those games saw one of the two teams shutout. The Coyotes are coming off a 4-1 loss to Florida, in a game that was tied 1-1 in the third period. We expect another low score here between two teams that play a more defensive style. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-03-24 | Devils v. Capitals OVER 6.5 | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Devils are one of the top offensive teams in the NHL, and they lead the league in power play percentage (30.3). They rank near the bottom of the league in goals against, and their penalty killing unit is among the league's worst. The Washington Capitals are playing the second game of a back to back at home, and their top goaltender is out of the lineup. Second string goaltender Darcy Keumper has allowed 13 goals in his last three starts. Keumper ranks 37th in the NHL with a GAA of 3.15. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-02-24 | Panthers v. Coyotes +1.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -170 | 20 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on ARI +1.5. The Panthers come into Arizona as a favorite, but the Coyotes home record is superior to Florida's road record. Florida is 3-2 straight up in their last five at Arizona, failing to cover the puckline in four of those five games. The Coyotes have won six of their last seven overall, and their #1 goaltender Connor Ingram is coming off a shutout. He's 8-3 with a 2.19 GAA and a .926 save percentage in 11 starts at home. The Coyotes are 15-5 ATS as a puckline underdog in his 20 starts overall this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-30-23 | Blues +1.5 v. Penguins | 2-4 | Loss | -145 | 15 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on STL. The Blues are 5-2 since firing head coach Craig Berube, and they have covered the spread as a puckline underdog in six of those seven games. While this is the back end of a back to back for St. Louis, it's the front end of a back to back for the Penguins. With the second leg coming against a division rival, and the first leg an out of conference game, the Pens might be looking ahead. We could see backup goaltenders involved in this game, and the Blues backup goaltender is coming off back to back wins allowing just 1 goal in each game. His overall numbers on the year are superior to starter Jordan Binnington. The Blues are 3-1 ATS in their last four versus Pittsburgh. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-27-23 | Avalanche v. Coyotes +1.5 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 41 h 24 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on ARI. The Yotes have won four of their last five, and the one loss came on the road at Colorado. That sets up a revenge spot in the second half of this home and home series. Home ice has been kind to the Coyotes, who are 11-5 at home. Arizona has won three of their last four home games versus Colorado, and they covered the puckline in all four of those games. They are 7-1 in their last eight home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-27-23 | Panthers v. Lightning -110 | 3-2 | Loss | -110 | 39 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on TB. The Lightning sit in fourth place in the Atlantic, behind the Florida Panthers. Their starting goaltender Andrei Vasilevskij missed some time due to injury, and that likely affected their overall record. Of course he wasn't sharp in his first few games back from injury, but he's won seven of his last 10 starts. He's 4-1 with a 1.81 GAA at home this season, and he's 62-19 at home since 2020. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-27-23 | Capitals +1.5 v. Rangers | 1-5 | Loss | -130 | 39 h 51 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on WAS +1.5. The Capitals have been quite competitive in recent weeks, winning five of their last eight games. They are 7-1 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. The Rangers are in first place in the Metropolitan Division, and they have won eight of their last 12. New York is just 3-12 ATS as a puckline favorite during that span. Charlie Lindgren is 7-3 with a 2.29 GAA and a .928 save percentage this season. That ranks among the league leaders in both categories. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-23-23 | Blackhawks v. Blues -1.5 | 5-7 | Win | 100 | 14 h 37 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL. The Blues have won three of four since firing Craig Berube, and they have a pretty favorable matchup here at home versus Chicago. The Blackhawks are coming off a 5-2 home loss to Montreal, and playing on the road in the second game of a back to back two days before Christmas is a tough game to get up for. The Hawks are just 4-12 on the road, and they have lost three of their last four at St. Louis. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-21-23 | Golden Knights v. Lightning -113 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 22 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on TB. This is a tough spot for the Knights playing on the road at Tampa just days before Christmas. Andrei Vasilevskij is back for the Bolts, and he's up to his old tricks. The perennial Vezina candidate is a brick wall at home. He's 3-1 with a 1.26 GAA at home this season, and he was 20-8 with a 2.57 GAA at home last year. He's 61-19 at home since 2020. The Knights have been forced to start third string goalie Jiri Patera due to injuries to Adin Hill and Logan Thompson. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-19-23 | Blues +1.5 v. Lightning | 1-6 | Loss | -160 | 27 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL +1.5. After firing their head coach, the struggling Edmonton Oilers rattled off an eight game winning streak. The St. Louis Blues fired their head coach last week, and have since won back to back games. The Blues are an underdog on the road in Tampa, and the Lightning have just returned home from a five game road trip. While the first game back from a road trip is often a flat spot, perhaps it's even more so less than a week away from Christmas. The Lightning are just 4-10 ATS as a puckline favorite in their last 14 games overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-15-23 | Predators +1.5 v. Hurricanes | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 19 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NASH. The Preds are one of the hottest teams in the NHL. They have won 11 of their last 14 straight up, and they have covered as a puckline underdog in 12 of those games. These teams have a history of playing close games, with five of the last eight head to head meetings decided by one goal. The Canes are 6-4 straight up in the last 10 meetings, but they are 3-7 ATS as a puckline favorite in those games. This will be the second game of a back to back for Carolina, coming off a 2-1 win at Detroit. Carolina is just 2-6 ATS as a puckline favorite in their last eight overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-14-23 | Senators v. Blues +100 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL. The Edmonton Oilers come into tonight's home game against Tampa riding an eight game winning streak. This comes after a brutal start to the season, and lines up with the firing of former head coach Jay Woodcroft. The St. Louis Blues have fired their head coach Craig Berube, and they are hoping for a similar turnaround. The Blues are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings, and they have won three of their last four home meetings versus Ottawa. We should see a strong effort from the Blues here with Drew Bannister making his debut as the new coach. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-14-23 | Hurricanes v. Red Wings +1.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 28 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on DET. So the Canes come into the Motor City as a big favorite, but both of these teams have 15 wins on the season. The Canes have fewer road wins than the Wings have at home, and I think the books have the wrong team favored here. Carolina is 4-6 SU in their last 10 overall, but just 3-7 ATS as a puckline favorite in that game. History favors Detroit here, as the Wings have won six of the last 10 versus Carolina, and they've covered the puckline in seven of 10. Detroit has covered as a puckline underdog in 12 of their last 14 games overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-13-23 | Jets v. Kings UNDER 6 | Top | 5-2 | Loss | -100 | 20 h 26 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Under. The Jets lost by a score of 2-1 in San Jose last night, and they come limping into LA without their leading scorer Kyle Connor. The good news is that perennial Vezina candidate Connor Hellebuyck will be back between the pipes tonight. While he ranks in the Top 10 in GAA, Cam Talbot ranks 2nd in the NHL with a 1.91 GAA. Special teams could help both netminders, as both these teams have elite penalty killing units, and neither team is that great on the power play. The under is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings, and three of the last four in LA have gone under the number. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-12-23 | Jets v. Sharks +1.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 17 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SJS. The Sharks are a bad team, maybe even the worst team in the NHL. That being said, they have been playing a lot better lately. They have won five of their last eight overall, but they are 7-1 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. The Jets are in town, and history favors the Sharks. San Jose is 6-4 SU in their last 10 versus Winnipeg, and 7-3 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. The Jets might be without their leading scorer Kyle Connor who is scheduled to have an MRI on his knee in San Jose today. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-11-23 | Red Wings +1.5 v. Stars | 3-6 | Loss | -140 | 15 h 48 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on DET. The Red Wings have played one fewer game than Dallas, and they have one less point to show for it. They actually have a better road record than the Stars have at home. Dallas is the big favorite here, and the Stars have won eight of the last 10 meetings. Three of the last five meetings were decided in overtime, and six of the last 10 meetings were decided by one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-10-23 | Devils v. Oilers -148 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 11 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on EDM. The Oilers fired head coach Jay Woodcroft on November 12th, and they have won eight of 11 since. They come into Sunday's home game against New Jersey as winners of six straight. The Devils have lost five of their last seven in Edmonton, and playing in the second game of a back to back off a win in Calgary, this looks like a tough spot for the visitors. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-08-23 | Wild v. Oilers -172 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 19 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on EDM. The Oilers fired head coach Jay Woodcroft on November 12th, and they have won seven of 10 since. They come into tonight's home game against Minnesota as winners of five straight. The home team is 5-0 in the last five meetings between these teams. This is the second game in a back to back for Minnesota off a loss at Vancouver last night. The Wild are 4-11 SU in their last 15 games on the road. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-07-23 | Wild v. Canucks -117 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 20 h 52 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Vancouver. I bet on Vancouver in their last game, and they lost 6-5 giving up the game winner in the final minute. The good news is they are 7-1 in their last 8 coming off a loss. Here is what I said before their loss to New Jersey: "The first game back from a road trip can be a trouble spot, but when that road trip was a one off at Calgary we aren't going to worry about that. The Canucks come home with a new defenseman, newly acquired Nikita Zadorov. Vancouver boast an 8-2-1 home record, and one of the league's best power plays. Thatcher Demko has looked like a Vezina candidate, and Quinn Hughes is being floated as a potential Hart Trophy winner." GL, Jesse Schule |

12-05-23 | Devils v. Canucks -120 | 6-5 | Loss | -120 | 34 h 39 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Van. The first game back from a road trip can be a trouble spot, but when that road trip was a one off at Calgary we aren't going to worry about that. The Canucks come home with a new defenseman, newly acquired Nikita Zadorov. Vancouver boast an 8-2-1 home record, and one of the league's best power plays. Thatcher Demko has looked like a Vezina candidate, and Quinn Hughes is being floated as a potential Hart Trophy winner. The Devils are a one-dimensional team that looks sexy with their high flying offense, but they have a negative goal differential and only the San Jose Sharks have conceded more goals than the Devils this season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-04-23 | Capitals v. Coyotes -108 | Top | 0-6 | Win | 100 | 18 h 35 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on ARI. The Caps are playing their third game of a road trip at Arizona, and the Coyotes have won three straight home games. While these teams may have similar records, Arizona ranks far superior in goal differential as well as special teams. The Coyotes are converting on better than 25 percent of their power play opportunities, while the Caps are scoring on less than nine percent of their power play chances. The Caps #1 goaltender missed the last game due to an illness, and he's questionable tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-01-23 | Sharks v. Devils -1.5 | 6-3 | Loss | -160 | 16 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NJD. The Sharks are the worst team in the NHL, and the majority of their 16 losses have come in games decided by more than one goal. A massive disparity in special teams play should be the difference here at The Meadowlands. The Devils lead the NHL in power play goals, and they have by far the best power play percentage. The Sharks have allowed an NHL worst 88 power play goals against. The more penalties called in this game the better for the home team. This should be a blowout. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-30-23 | Avalanche v. Coyotes +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on ARI. The Coyotes are coming off back to back wins, and one of those came against defending Stanley Cup champions Vegas. They are 6-4 straight up in their last 10 overall, but they are 8-2 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. They host Colorado, and they are 5-1 ATS as a puckline underdog in the last six head to head meetings. The Avs are 3-2 straight up in their last five road games, but they only covered the puckline twice during that span. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-29-23 | Red Wings +1.5 v. Rangers | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on DET. The Wings come into New York as winners of three straight, and there is plenty of buzz around this team right now. The signing of Patrick Kane should give this team plenty to be excited about. The Rangers are 7-1 straight up in their last 10 versus Detroit, but the Wings are 5-3 ATS in the last eight meetings. Detroit is 16-4 as a puckline underdog so far this season. I like the Wings as a live dog in the Big Apple. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-25-23 | Canucks -1.5 v. Sharks | 3-4 | Loss | -105 | 20 h 40 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Van. The Canucks have the 2nd best record in the Western Conference, they have three players ranked in the Top 5 in the NHL in scoring, and Elias Pettersson currently leads the league with 25 points in 15 games. They have the league's 3rd best power play, and the league's 4th best penalty kill. The Sharks own the worst record in the league, and they are coming off an OT loss last night. Both teams are playing the second game of a back to back, and we could see backup goalies face off here tonight. This would put the Sharks at a major disadvantage, as their backup Kaapo Kahkonen is 1-6 with a 4.30 GAA. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-24-23 | Canucks -108 v. Seattle Kraken | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 16 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Van. The Canucks lost at home to the Kraken last week, and this sets them up for a revenge spot in Seattle tonight. Here is what I said about Vancouver last week: "The Canucks have the 2nd best record in the Western Conference, they have three players ranked in the Top 5 in the NHL in scoring, and Elias Pettersson currently leads the league with 25 points in 15 games. They have the league's 3rd best power play, and the league's 4th best penalty kill." GL, Jesse Schule |

11-19-23 | Sabres v. Blackhawks +1.5 | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Chicago. The Hawks are coming off a 4-2 loss in Nashville, a game that was closer than it looked. The Preds added an empy netter in the final seconds. We will hope for a better result at home tonight against a Sabres team that has a knack for playing close games. Buffalo is 2-5 straight up and 1-6 ATS a puckline favorite in their last seven overall. Chicago is 9-1 ATS as a puckline underdog in their last 10 versus Buffalo. These teams have played three straight overtime games and four straight one goal games in the last four head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-18-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Canucks -158 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -158 | 32 h 1 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on VAN. The Canucks have been one of the hottest teams in the league, and they come off a let down in a loss at Calgary on Thursday. I had them the night before at home versus the Islanders, and I said this prior to that game: "Vancouver has the 2nd best record in the Western Conference, they have three players ranked in the Top 5 in the NHL in scoring, and Elias Pettersson currently leads the league with 25 points in 15 games. They have the league's 3rd best power play, and the league's 4th best penalty kill. The Islanders are 3-8 in their last 11 road games, and they come in on a five game losing streak. I don't think he markets have quite caught up to how good this Vancouver team is at the moment. " GL, Jesse Schule |

11-16-23 | Blues -175 v. Sharks | 1-5 | Loss | -175 | 33 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL. I think the markets have yet to account for the rise of this St. Louis Blues team. The Blues have won three straight, and they are 5-1 in their last six overall. They travel to San Jose to take on what many have dubbed the "worst team in NHL history". The Sharks have lost three straight, and they are 2-13 overall this season. They have a pathetic power play, and their penalty kill can't stop anyone. Their average of 1.31 goals per game isn't just bad, it's historically bad. I think the Blues should be a far bigger favorite here. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-14-23 | Ducks +1.5 v. Predators | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 11 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on ANA. The Ducks have won seven of their last nine overall, and they are a big underdog on the road at Nashville. Bridgestone Arena was once considered one of the toughest places in the NHL to play, but that was back when Pekke Rinne was the goaltender and Shea Weber was patrolling the blue line. The Preds are a pedestrian 3-3 at home this season, and they have just two wins in their last eight games. Juuse Saros is 4-8 with a 3.24 GAA and a .894 save percentage. He's not even the best goalie on his team. John Gibson ranks in the Top 10 in the league in both GAA and save percentage. I'll take the visitors with a better record, better goalie and getting +1.5 goals. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-13-23 | Islanders v. Oilers -163 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 15 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on EDM. So the Oilers finally fired their coach, and we will see if the players respond here tonight. This is a classic situational spot bet taking a team off a coaching change. Edmonton has superior talent, superior special teams, and added motivation with a new bench boss. Keep it simple stupid! Also like 1P ML. GL, Jesse Schule |

11-11-23 | Blue Jackets v. Red Wings -143 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 8 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on DET. The Wings are looking to snap a two game losing streak, but Columbus appears to be a perfect opponent for that. The Blue Jackets have lost seven of their last eight overall, and they sit dead last in the Metropolitan Division. The Wings won three of four meetings versus Columbus last season. The Blue Jackets are 10-41 in their last 51 road games. The Red Wings have a solid power play and they are good on the penalty kill, and special teams could be the difference here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-09-23 | Canadiens +1.5 v. Red Wings | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 17 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on MTL. The Habs have a knack for playing close games. Seven of their 12 games have been decided by one goal, including five games decided in overtime. They have a history of playing close games against Detroit as well. They are 3-7 straight up in their last 10 versus the Red Wings, but they are 8-2 ATS as a puckline underdog in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-08-23 | Senators +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | 6-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 55 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on OTT. The Leafs have won four of the last five meetings versus the Sens, but they are just 1-4 ATS on the puckline in those games. Both teams get up for this rivlary, and we can expect another close game here in Toronto tonight. The Sens are 4-6 SU, but they are 7-3 ATS in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-07-23 | Jets v. Blues UNDER 6 | 5-2 | Loss | -110 | 18 h 34 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. So 20% of all the goals scored in the NHL come on the power play. That could be significant here as these two teams have two of the worst power plays in the NHL. The Blues rank dead last in the NHL scoring on just 3.7 percent of their chances, and the Jets are ranked 23rd. This combined with the fact that both these teams have top tier goaltenders could well result in a low scoring game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-04-23 | Predators v. Oilers -174 | Top | 5-2 | Loss | -174 | 15 h 30 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Oilers. Edmonton has got off to a brutal start, and that has them treating tonight's as a must win. It will be the third straight game on the road for Nashville, and they have lost four of five road games so far. Special teams could cost the Predators here, ranking among the worst in the NHL on the penalty kill, and facing the Oilers potent power play. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-02-23 | Stars v. Oilers -130 | 4-3 | Loss | -130 | 20 h 32 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on EDM. The Oilers are off to a slow start, failing to live up to such high expectations. They did win their last game blowing out Calgary in the Heritage Classic. Connor McDavid made a triumphant return, and he will be in the lineup tonight. This is a tough spot for Dallas, coming off a 4-3 win over Calgary last night. Jake Oettinger got the start last night, and that might lead to backup Scott Wedgewood to play in the second game of a back to back. Oettinger is one of the best in the NHL, and if he sits there is a huge drop off. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-31-23 | Predators v. Canucks -127 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 19 h 57 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VAN. The Canucks are playing well under new head coach Rick Tocchet, who was one of the league's toughest players when he played. Vancouver sits in second place in the Pacific Division behind defending champions Las Vegas. They host Nashville tonight, and this is a teach that they have owned over the years. Vancouver has won six straight in the Western Conference and four of five at home. The Preds have lost seven of their last 10 coming off a win, and they are 2-5 in their last seven on the road. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-30-23 | Blackhawks +1.5 v. Coyotes | 1-8 | Loss | -150 | 19 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on CHI. The Hawks are 3-3 on the road, but they are 4-2 ATS in those games. They are an underdog on the road tonight in Arizona, and the Coyotes are 3-4 straight up so far this season. Arizona is just 1-6 ATS as a puckline favorite in those games. The Coyotes have won five of the last 10 head to head versus Chicago, but five of those games were decided by one goal. The Coyotes are 6-21 in their last 27 games playing on 2 days rest, and they are 2-7 in their last 9 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-30-23 | Red Wings +1.5 v. Islanders | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 17 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on DET. The Red Wings are 5-4 straight up, but they are 7-2 ATS in those games. They will be on the road against the Islanders tonight, and New York is 4-3 straight up so far. The Isles are just 1-6 ATS as a puckline favorite in those games. The Islanders rank near the bottom of the league in scoring, and they own one of the league's worst ranked power play units. The Wings have a huge edge when it comes to special teams. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-30-23 | Seattle Kraken +1.5 v. Lightning | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SEA. Most experts expected Seattle to take a step forward this season, but they have yet to impress. The Kraken have lost seven of nine games to start the season, but they are 5-4 ATS in those games. The Lightning are just 4-4, and they have missed their starting netminder Andrei Vasilevskij. It may be tough for the Bolts to match the level of desperation that they will see from Seattle here. GL, Jesse Schule |
