10-30-23 | Panthers v. Bruins -154 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 16 h 10 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on BOS. The Bruins have picked up right where they left off last year, when they had the league's best record in the regular season. They got off to a 3-1 series lead in the first round of the playoffs, only to lose three straight and fall in seven games versus the Florida Panthers. This sets up one hell of a revenge spot for the Bruins tonight. The Panthers are 8-20 in the last 28 meetings in Boston, and the Bruins are 45-11 in their last 56 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |

10-28-23 | Maple Leafs -136 v. Predators | 2-3 | Loss | -136 | 12 h 29 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on TOR. The Leafs will be on the road on Saturday night, but it's still a national TV game on Hockey Night in Canada. Toronto has a hot goaltender in Joseph Woll, who is 3-1 with a 1.33 GAA so far. The Leafs are 4-1 in their last five versus Nashville, and they won two of three at Nashville during that span. Special teams could be huge in this game, as Toronto ranks near the top of the NHL on both the powerplay and penalty kill. The Preds are ranked among the worst in the league in both those categories. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-27-23 | Blues v. Canucks UNDER 6.5 | 0-5 | Win | 100 | 20 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Blues are coming off a 3-0 shutout win over Calgary, and they have gone under in five of their six games this season. They will be starting a hot goaltender tonight in Vancouver, either the backup coming off a shutout or Jordan Binnington, who is 2-1-1 with 1.69 GAA. The Canucks are also in good shape with both their netminders, ranking 7th in the league in GAA. History tells us we can expect a low scoring game, as the under is 19-6-3 in the last 28 meetings in Vancouver. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-26-23 | Maple Leafs v. Stars UNDER 6.5 | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 42 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Under. The Dallas Stars host the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight, and these teams have a history of playing low scoring games. Four of the last five head to head meetings have gone under the total. The Stars are riding a hot goaltender, as Jake Oettinger is 3-0-1 with a 1.44 GAA in four starts. All four of those games went under the total. Toronto also has a hot goaltender, Joseph Woll is 2-1 with a 1.44 GAA. We could see a low scoring affair here in Texas. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-24-23 | Sabres v. Senators -154 | 6-4 | Loss | -154 | 12 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Ottawa. The Sens are 3-1 on at home so far, and they wrap up this home stand with a game against the Buffalo Sabres. Buffalo is play on back to back nights, coming off a loss at Montreal. The home team has won four straight and seven of the last 10 in this series. While it is still too early in the season to put too much stock in the numbers, Buffalo ranks near the bottom of the league in scoring and has one of the league's worst power-plays. The Sabres are 55-124 in their last 179 games playing the second game of a back to back, and they have lost seven of eight in Ottawa. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-19-23 | Hurricanes v. Seattle Kraken +1.5 | 4-7 | Win | 100 | 20 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 10* play on SEA. The Kraken are still looking for their first win, and they could be catching the Hurricanes in a good spot. This will be their fourth consecutive road game, and their starting netminder Freddy Anderson is banged up. These teams have played four times previously, and Carolina has won all four of those games. It's probably worth noting that three of those games were decided by one goal. Seattle lost their home opener to Colorado by a score of 4-1, but the Kraken are 4-1 in their last 5 games following a home loss of 3 or more goals. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-18-23 | Capitals v. Senators -155 | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 25 h 28 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on OTT. The Sens are coming off back to back home wins, and they host the Washington Capitals on Wednesday night. Ottawa is an exciting young team that was one of the best in the NHL in pre-season. Brady Tkatchuk has scored four goals in three games, and his stock is trending up. The Caps are 1-1 after opening the season with a pair of home games, and they play on the road for the first time this season. Washington has cost bettors a ton of money, going 8-22 in their last 30 overall. They are 2-14 in their last 16 games following a win and they have lost six straight on the road. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-17-23 | Oilers -140 v. Predators | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 16 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Oilers. The Oilers ran into a buzz saw losing their first two games of the season to the Vancouver Canucks. They have a favorable matchup here in Nashville, facing a Predators team that they have won eight of nine against. Edmonton had the best power play in the NHL last year, converting on roughly 1/3 of their chances. Don't be surprised if they dominate special teams play here in Nashville, earning their first win of the season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-12-23 | Red Wings v. Devils OVER 6.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. We don't want to overreact to the pre-season, but the Devils did score an NHL best 30 goals in just seven games. The Red Wings weren't far off, tallying 29 in eight games. The Devils offense should pick up where it did last season, leading the Metropolitan Division in scoring. Neither of these teams have great goaltending, and the defense should be a bit sloppy early in the season. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
10-10-23 | Seattle Kraken +1.5 v. Golden Knights | 1-4 | Loss | -165 | 32 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on SEA +1.5. The Vegas Golden Knights will raise the Stanley Cup banner in their home opener tonight, and we might see a "Stanley Cup Hangover" in effect. The Golden Knights finished first in the Western Conference last year with 111 points, while Seattle finished 11 points back in the standings. Perhaps it is notable that the Kranen had a better road record (26 wins) than Vegas had at home (25 wins). I like Seattle to pull off the upset here in Sin City. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-13-23 | Panthers v. Golden Knights UNDER 6 | 3-9 | Loss | -120 | 9 h 31 m | Show | |
This is 4* play on Under. It's Deja Vu all over again! I said prior to last night's NBA Finals game that the under was 8-2 in the final game of the NBA Finals over the last 10 years. History tells us that the final game of the NHL Finals has gone under in 9-of-10 over the last 10 years. The under is 10-3 in the Panthers last 13 overall, and goals will be hard to come by in this elimination game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-10-23 | Golden Knights v. Panthers OVER 5.5 | 3-2 | Loss | -120 | 15 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Golden Knights were just two minutes away from a 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Finals, but Matthew Tkatchuck had other ideas. He tied the game, and the Panthers went on to win in OT. We can expect the Knights to come out like ganbusters in Game 4, and I think we see a higher score. The over is 4-1 in the Golden Knights last five Stanley Cup Finals games, and the Panthers have gone over in four of their last five versus teams from the Western Conference. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-08-23 | Golden Knights v. Panthers -118 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 15 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on FLA. The Panthers have their backs against the wall here in Game 3, but history is on their side. Over the last 25 years teams that have trailed 2-0 in the Stanley Cup Finals are 10-5 straight up in Game 3. I expect Bobrovsky to bounce back after being pulled, and I think this will be a chippy, physical game and that might favor the home team. GL, Jesse Schule. |
|||||||
06-05-23 | Panthers v. Golden Knights -131 | 2-7 | Win | 100 | 18 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Vegas. I had Vegas in Game 1, and here is what I said prior to the game: "The Stanley Cup is the oldest trophy in professional sports. Going back more than a century, only once has a #8 seed won the Stanley Cup, and only three times has a team ranked lower than a #4 seed won a Stanley Cup. The Golden Knights are the #1 seed in the Western Conference, and if history is any indication you have to love their chances here. The Panthers have been riding a hot goaltender, and the feisty play of Matthew Tkatchuk. A 10 day layoff prior to this series could be a huge momentum killer for the visitors. I like the Knights to get off to a good start on home ice in Game 1." I will come back with the home favorite here in Game 2. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
06-03-23 | Panthers v. Golden Knights -130 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 110 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Vegas. The Stanley Cup is the oldest trophy in professional sports. Going back more than a century, only once has a #8 seed won the Stanley Cup, and only three times has a team ranked lower than a #4 seed won a Stanley Cup. The Golden Knights are the #1 seed in the Western Conference, and if history is any indication you have to love their chances here. The Panthers have been riding a hot goaltender, and the feisty play of Matthew Tkatchuk. A 10 day layoff prior to this series could be a huge momentum killer for the visitors. I like the Knights to get off to a good start on home ice in Game 1. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-29-23 | Golden Knights +113 v. Stars | 6-0 | Win | 113 | 18 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. Here is what I said prior to Game 5: "The Stars pulled out all the stops in Game 4, and perhaps they got a little fortunate to win with a power play goal in overtime. They could be due for a let down here in Game 5 in Vegas. The Knights have been getting far better goaltending from Adin Hill, who is 6-2 with a 2.07 GAA in the playoffs. Jake Oettinger allowed 10 goals while losing the first three games of this series. Jamie Benn will be serving his second game of a two game suspension tonight. I like Vegas to complete the Gentleman's Sweep." I think the Stars luck runs out here in Game 6. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-27-23 | Stars v. Golden Knights UNDER 5.5 | 4-2 | Loss | -108 | 18 h 59 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The Golden Knights have another chance to punch their ticket into the Stanley Cup Final, after losing 3-2 in overtime in Dallas in Game 2. Each of the last three games in this series have gone under the number, and both goaltenders have played very well. The under is 9-1-2 in the Stars last 12 Conference Finals games, and they have failed to reach the total in 15 of their last 21 versus the Golden Knights. The under is 9-1-1 in the Golden Knights last 11 Conference Finals games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-25-23 | Golden Knights +105 v. Stars | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 17 h 31 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on VGK. The Stars are facing elimination tonight, and they won't have their team captain Jamie Benn after he was suspended for two games for cross checking Marc Stone. Adin Hill stopped all 34 shots he faced in Game 3, and he's 6-1 with a 1.96 GAA in the playoffs so far. Vegas clinched their second round series with a win on the road in Edmonton, and they are 6-1 in their last seven road games. I expect this series to end in Dallas tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-24-23 | Hurricanes v. Panthers UNDER 5.5 | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -120 | 18 h 45 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Under. The Hurricanes face elimination in Game 4, and Florida is riding a hot goaltender. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped all 32 shots he faced in a 1-0 win in Game 3, and he's been standing on his head this entire series. We should see another low score tonight, as the under is 6-1 in the last seven meetings between these teams. The Panthers have failed to reach the total in eight straight overall. Clearly the key here is the play of the Panthers veteran goaltender. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-21-23 | Stars v. Golden Knights -115 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 9 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on VGK. Dallas won all three meetings in the regular season, but two of those wins came in shootouts. Game 1 won't be decided by a shootout, that is one thing I can promise you. The Knights have had the more impressive journey to the Conference Finals, and they really appear to be destined to make another Finals run and maybe take home the cup. Adin Hill comes in ranking among the top goaltenders in the playoffs, with a 2.19 GAA and a .934 save percentage. The Golden Knights are 16-5 in their last 21 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-20-23 | Panthers v. Hurricanes -150 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -150 | 16 h 40 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on CAR. Just the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals and the Hurricanes are already facing a must win situation. They haven't lost back to back games in these playoffs, and they catch the Panthers off back to back OT wins. The Panthers are 15-37-2 in the last 54 meetings in Carolina, and the Hurricanes are 42-16 in their last 58 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-19-23 | Stars v. Golden Knights -135 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 84 h 11 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on VGK. Dallas won all three meetings in the regular season, but two of those wins came in shootouts. Game 1 won't be decided by a shoutout, that is one thing I can promise you. The Knights have had the more impressive journey to the Conference Finals, and they really appear to be destined to make another Finals run and maybe take home the cup. Adin Hill comes in ranking among the top goaltenders in the playoffs, with a 2.19 GAA and a .934 save percentage. The Golden Knights are 16-5 in their last 21 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-18-23 | Panthers v. Hurricanes UNDER 6 | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 13 h 33 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Under. The #8 seed Panthers have been giant killers in these playoffs, and they find themselves as just a slight underdog on the road in Game 1 versus Carolina. The price seems a bit low considering it's an #8 seed versus a #2 seed. The Panthers turned things around when they went to Sergei Bobrovskty, and the veteran has turned back the clock. The Canes though have Freddy Anderson, who is 5-0 with a 1.80 GAA in the post-season. Carolina has also won 42 of their last 57 home games. The over/under trends for these teams may not be relevant, as they include mostly games with different goaltenders. Both these teams come into this series in great shape between the pipes. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-15-23 | Seattle Kraken +1.5 v. Stars | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 42 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on SEA. The Kraken have already won a Game 7 on the road in the first round. They beat Colorado 2-1 in overtime, and I have to think they can give Dallas a run for their money here. The Kraken are 13-6 in their last 19 road games, and they won Game 1 of this series in Dallas. Phillip Grubauer stopped 33-of-34 shots in the win in Game 7 versus Colorado, and he's been solid throughout the playoffs. Jake Oettinger had his confidence rattled after allowing four goals on 18 shots in just 24 minutes in Game 6 in Seattle. Oettinger is just 24 years old, while Grubauer is a seasoned veteran with a ton of playoff experience. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-14-23 | Golden Knights v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | Top | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 20 h 49 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. Traditionally we see lower scores in elimination games in the NHL Playoffs, but the Edmonton Oilers are a different beast. They own by far the best power play in the NHL, but their goaltending and subpar defense always lets them down. Vegas won Game 5 by scoring three goals in just over a minute. The Oilers are 12-3 in their last 15 home games, and they have scored 49 goals in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-12-23 | Oilers -130 v. Golden Knights | 3-4 | Loss | -130 | 23 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Oilers. So far the Zig Zag theory has worked in all four games in this series, I am going to go the other way here in Game 5.The Oilers are lethal on the power play, converting on more than half of their chances in the playoffs so far. They had by far the best power play in the league during the regular season. The over is 9-3 in the Oilers last 12 Conference Semifinals games, and they have gone over in the first period in 9-of-10 games in these playoffs. The Golden Knights will be without their top defenseman in Game 5, and they may not have goaltender Laurent Brossoit either. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-11-23 | Devils v. Hurricanes -125 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 56 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on CAR. The Hurricanes can close out this series here at home in Game 5, and that seems like a likely outcome given the Devils goaltending situation. Here is what I said prior to Game 4: “The goaltending situation is on shaky ground for both teams in this series. The Devils will most likely start Vitek Vanecek, who had lost the starting job halfway through the first round series versus New York. The Hurricanes chased Akria Schmidt from the net early in both the first two games of this series. The Canes have had their #1 goaltender sidelined by illness, and both Freddy Anderson and Pyotr Kochetkov struggled in an 8-4 loss in Game 3. All three games have gone over the number, and yet the bookmakers haven't budged offering 5.5 instead of 6. I think this is a mistake. The over is 5-1 in the last six meetings.” After Anderson allowed just one goal on 22 shots in Game 4 the Hurricanes have a decided advantage. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-10-23 | Golden Knights v. Oilers -182 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Oilers. So far the Zig Zag theory has worked in all three games in this series, and each of the last two games saw the home team lose by a score of 5-1. This has the bookmakers jacking the total up to 7, and the Oilers are a huge favorite to even the series at 2-2 with a win in Game 4. The best bet here may well be the TT over for the Oilers, as they should respond after getting blown out in Game 3. The Oilers won Game 2 by a score of 5-1. It was 4-0 after the first period, and 5-0 after the second period. While the game went under the total, the Oilers had gone over in four straight prior to Game 2. Neither of these two teams are leaning on their goaltenders, as both Laurent Brossoit and Stuart Skinner have posted a GAA over 3.00 in the post-season. The Oilers are lethal on the power play, converting on more than half of their chances in the playoffs so far. They had by far the best power play in the league during the regular season. The over is 9-3 in the Oilers last 12 Conference Semifinals games, and they have gone over in the first period in 8-of-9 games in these playoffs. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-09-23 | Hurricanes v. Devils OVER 5.5 | Top | 6-1 | Win | 103 | 17 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. The goaltending situation is on shaky ground for both teams in this series. The Devils will most likely start Vitek Vanecek, who had lost the starting job halfway through the first round series versus New York. The Hurricanes chased Akria Schmidt from the net early in both the first two games of this series. The Canes have had their #1 goaltender sidelined by illness, and both Freddy Anderson and Pyotr Kochetkov struggled in an 8-4 loss in Game 3. All three games have gone over the number, and yet the bookmakers haven't budged offering 5.5 instead of 6. I think this is a mistake. The over is 5-1 in the last six meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-08-23 | Golden Knights v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | 5-1 | Loss | -133 | 20 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 10* play on Over. The Oilers come back home with a split, and all the momentum in the series after winning Game 2 by a score of 5-1. It was 4-0 after the first period, and 5-0 after the second period. While the game went under the total, the Oilers had gone over in four straight prior to Game 2. Neither of these two teams are leaning on their goaltenders, as both Laurent Brossoit and Stuart Skinner have posted a GAA over 3.00 in the post-season. The Oilers are lethal on the power play, converting on more than half of their chances in the playoffs so far. They had by far the best power play in the league during the regular season. The over is 9-3 in the Oilers last 12 Conference Semifinals games, and they have gone over in five of their last six versus Las Vegas. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
05-07-23 | Maple Leafs v. Panthers UNDER 6.5 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 116 | 13 h 30 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Under. If the Leafs played baseball they would the Cubs. If they were in the NFL they would be the Buffalo Bills team that lost four Super Bowls. In other words, this team is cursed, haunted by years of past failure. Now they are up against a hot goaltender here in Florida, as Sergei Bobrovsky has turned back the clock. He's playing like he did when the Blue Jackets swept the Lightning in the first round. The Leafs have gone under in four straight, and they have failed to reach the total in each of their last four versus Florida. The under is 6-0 in the Panthers last six Conference Semifinals games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-30-23 | Panthers v. Bruins -1.5 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 18 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on BOS. The best team in NHL regular season history faces a do or die Game 7 in the first round. Their starting goaltender has struggled, and I wouldn't be surprised if a change is made between the pipes. The road to the Stanley Cup often has bumps along the way, just ask the LA Kings who trailed 3-0 in a first round series versus Tampa Bay. The Kings went on to win the series and eventually the Lord Stanley's mug as well. The Calgary Flames went to overtime in a Game 7 against the Vancouver Canucks, and after surviving that scare they cruised the rest of the way to a Stanley Cup victory. Boston is bigger, stronger, faster... and the Panthers should be in over their heads here in this Game 7. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-29-23 | Oilers v. Kings +1.5 | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 35 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on LAK. The home team has scored first in all five games in this series, and LA probably should have won both home games. They blew a 3-0 lead, losing in overtime in Game 4. Now they need to win tonight to force a Game 7, and they should have a puncher's chance. We have already seen overtime three times in this series, so don't be surprised to see another close game. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-28-23 | Bruins -169 v. Panthers | 5-7 | Loss | -169 | 13 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on BOS. So I called for Boston to win this series in five games, and obviously that didn't happen. If you think I am going to backtrack, pivot and reverse course.... THINK AGAIN! I am gonna double down: "Unlike the NBA, the NHL is all about parity. An 8th seed normally has a fighting chance against a #1 seed, but in the case of the Boston Bruins hosting Florida, we expect this to prove to me a mismatch. I am gonna call for a Gentleman's Sweep here. The Panthers are sending 30 year old journeyman goaltender Alex Lyon to the wolves here. I mean, normally when we refer to a player as a "journeyman", it means he's bounced around on many teams and might not have gotten a ton of ice time. Lyons has played the majority of his career in the AHL. He started just 15 games this season, which is a career high. The Bruins Linus Ullmark leads the NHL in GAA and save percentage, and his backup also ranks Top 5 in both categories. The Bruins broke the modern day record with 65 wins and 135 points this season. They should have little trouble getting past the Panthers." Sergei Bobrovsky replaced Lyons in goal, and he gave up five goals on 25 shots in Game 4 in Florida. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-26-23 | Panthers v. Bruins -225 | 4-3 | Loss | -225 | 20 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on BOS (Regulation). I called for a gentlemen's sweep prior to Game 3, and here is what I had to say: "Unlike the NBA, the NHL is all about parity. An 8th seed normally has a fighting chance against a #1 seed, but in the case of the Boston Bruins hosting Florida, we expect this to prove to me a mismatch. I am gonna call for a Gentleman's Sweep here. The Panthers are sending 30 year old journeyman goaltender Alex Lyon to the wolves here. I mean, normally when we refer to a player as a "journeyman", it means he's bounced around on many teams and might not have gotten a ton of ice time. Lyons has played the majority of his career in the AHL. He started just 15 games this season, which is a career high. The Bruins Linus Ullmark leads the NHL in GAA and save percentage, and his backup also ranks Top 5 in both categories. The Bruins broke the modern day record with 65 wins and 135 points this season. They should have little trouble getting past the Panthers." The prophecy comes to fruition here in Game 5. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-24-23 | Golden Knights v. Jets -102 | 4-2 | Loss | -102 | 22 h 53 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Jets. I had the Jets in Game 3, and it was a bit of a disaster as they went down 2-0 early in the 1st period. They were the better team from that point on, but ended up coming up short in overtime. Here is what I said before Game 2: "The Jets didn't just win Game 1 of this series, they dominated. They held the Golden Knights to just 17 shots on goal. Vegas will be a big favorite in Game 2, but I don't expect it to be easy for the Knights moving forward. Connor Hellebuyck was 4-1 with a 1.41 GAA in his last five starts of the regular season, and he is a proven playoff performer. He's started 36 playoff games, and his record of 17-19 with a 2.42 GAA is solid, but what really stands out is his .921 save percentage. The Jets are 6-3 SU, and 8-1 ATS in the last nine head to head meetings" I like the Jets to get the win and send this series back to Sin City tied at 1-1. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-24-23 | Devils v. Rangers -145 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -145 | 18 h 40 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on NYR. I had the Rangers in Game 1 of this series, and I said this before the puck dropped: "The Devils come in as the #3 seed with 112 points in the regular season, and they host the #5 seed New York Rangers who finished the regular season with 107 points. Both these teams had more wins on the road than they did at home this season. so you have to wonder how important home ice advantage will be in this series. The Devils won the regular season series 3-1, and three of those four games were decided by one goal. The Rangers made a splash at the trade deadline acquiring 3 x Stanley Cup champions and Conn Smythe winner Patrick Kane. The Rangers have a superior power play, and Igor Shesterkin was statistically better than Vitek Vanecek during the season. I'll take the underdog in Game 1 and for the series." Heading into Game 4 the Rangers have already chased Vitek Vanecek from the net, and the Devils have turned to 22 year old rookie Akira Schmid. I expect New York to take a stranglehold on the series with a win in Game 4. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-23-23 | Stars v. Wild -109 | 3-2 | Loss | -109 | 27 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on MIN. I was not surprised to see the Wild win Game 1 of this series, but I was surprised to see Philip Gustavsson on the bench after stopping 51 of 53 shots in Game 1. Gustavsson ranked 2nd in the league this season in both GAA and save percentage. We should see him back between the pipes here in Game 4, and the Wild should have the advantage on home ice. The Wild are 78-34 in their last 112 home games. The Dallas Stars finished just one point out of first in the Western Conference, despite winning just one more game than the Wild. How did they do it? Well they had 14 overtime losses. While you get points for losing in overtime in the regular season, all you get in the playoffs is nightmares. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-22-23 | Golden Knights v. Jets -110 | 5-4 | Loss | -110 | 25 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Jets. I had Winnipeg in Game 2 in Vegas, and here is what I said before the game: "The Jets didn't just win Game 1 of this series, they dominated. They held the Golden Knights to just 17 shots on goal. Vegas will be a big favorite in Game 2, but I don't expect it to be easy for the Knights moving forward. Connor Hellebuyck was 4-1 with a 1.41 GAA in his last five starts of the regular season, and he is a proven playoff performer. He's started 36 playoff games, and his record of 17-19 with a 2.42 GAA is solid, but what really stands out is his .921 save percentage. The Jets are 6-3 SU, and 8-1 ATS in the last nine head to head meetings. A close game should be expected." I like the Jets to respond here on home ice after a tough loss in Game 2. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-21-23 | Stars v. Wild +102 | 1-5 | Win | 102 | 20 h 1 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Minnesota. I was not surprised to see the Wild win Game 1 of this series, but I was surprised to see Philip Gustavsson on the bench after stopping 51 of 53 shots in Game 1. Gustavsson ranked 2nd in the league this season in both GAA and save percentage. We should see him back between the pipes here in Game 3, and the Wild should have the advantage on home ice. The Wild are 77-34 in their last 111 home games. The Dallas Stars finished just one point out of first in the Western Conference, despite winning just one more game than the Wild. How did they do it? Well they had 14 overtime losses. While you get points for losing in overtime in the regular season, all you get in the playoffs is nightmares. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-21-23 | Bruins -147 v. Panthers | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 18 h 57 m | Show |
This is a 5* play on BOS. I had the Bruins in Game 1, and here is what I said prior to the game. "Unlike the NBA, the NHL is all about parity. An 8th seed normally has a fighting chance against a #1 seed, but in the case of the Boston Bruins hosting Florida, we expect this to prove to me a mismatch. I am gonna call for a Gentleman's Sweep here. The Panthers are sending 30 year old journeyman goaltender Alex Lyon to the wolves here. I mean, normally when we refer to a player as a "journeyman", it means he's bounced around on many teams and might not have gotten a ton of ice time. Lyons has played the majority of his career in the AHL. He started just 15 games this season, which is a career high. The Bruins Linus Ullmark leads the NHL in GAA and save percentage, and his backup also ranks Top 5 in both categories. The Bruins broke the modern day record with 65 wins and 135 points this season. They should have little trouble getting past the Panthers." I still think this series is going to be a “Gentleman's Sweep”. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-20-23 | Jets +1.5 v. Golden Knights | 2-5 | Loss | -190 | 20 h 45 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on WPG. The Jets didn't just win Game 1 of this series, they dominated. They held the Golden Knights to just 17 shots on goal. Vegas will be a big favorite in Game 2, but I don't expect it to be easy for the Knights moving forward. Connor Hellebuyck was 4-1 with a 1.41 GAA in his last five starts of the regular season, and he is a proven playoff performer. He's started 36 playoff games, and his record of 17-19 with a 2.42 GAA is solid, but what really stands out is his .921 save percentage.

04-19-23 | Kings v. Oilers UNDER 6.5 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 21 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Under. The LA Kings got the upset in Game 1, forcing overtime with game tying goal in the final 17 seconds of regulation. Up until that point the game was trending under, and these two teams had gone under in five of the previous six meetings. The under is 21-10-4 in the last 35 meetings in Edmonton. We should see both teams tighten up here in Game 2. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-18-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Avalanche -176 | 3-1 | Loss | -176 | 26 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on COL. The Avs are defending champs, and they host a Seattle team that is in the playoffs for the first time. This looks like a mismatch of epic proportions. The Avs are far superior on special teams, both on the power play as well as the penalty kill. They have all the playoff experience, and they are 13-3 in their last 16 Conference Quarterfinals games. When it comes to goaltending, Avs starter Alexander Georgiev was among the league leaders with a .919 save percentage, while Phillip Grubauer ranked 39th with a .895 save percentage. I'll take the better team with the better special teams, the better goalie and the edge in experience. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-10-23 | Islanders -154 v. Capitals | 2-5 | Loss | -154 | 20 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Islanders. The Isles currently sit in the final Wild Card spot in the East, but Pittsburgh is just one point behind them. The Capitals are already eliminated, and they likely have one foot already on the golf course. “Obviously we're out of the playoffs, but we're trying to play spoiler," Strome said. "I thought (Lindgren) had an unbelievable game. That game is probably 5-2, 6-2 if it's not for him in the third period ... you could see they were really pressing, they need the points.” The Caps have lost six straight overall, and they are 0-7 in games without Alex Ovechkin. Ovechkin was one of four players that missed the last game due to injuries. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-10-23 | Sharks v. Jets -1.5 | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 20 h 15 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on WPG. The Jets host the Sharks in a must win game on Monday night, and San Jose already has one foot on the golf course. The Sharks have lost 20 of their last 25 games overall, and they are 17-41 in their last 58 road games. The Jets are currently occupying the final Wild Card spot in the West, but Calgary is just one point back. Winnipeg should blow the doors off here. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-08-23 | Flames -155 v. Canucks | 2-3 | Loss | -155 | 33 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on CAL. The Flames are coming off a huge 3-1 win at Winnipeg, and they face another must win game in Vancouver Saturday. The Canucks aren't going to lay down, but Calgary has had success in Vancouver winning seven of their last 10. Calgary is 5-1 in their last six overall, and they have won four of their last five on the road. Vancouver has lost four of five, and four of five at home. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-08-23 | Flyers v. Islanders -1.5 | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 11 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NYI. The Isles currently hold the final Wild Card spot in the East, but Pittsburgh is hot on their heels just one point back. Both teams play must win games today, and each team has an opponent with one foot already on the golf course. The Isles have the luxury of playing at home versus the Flyers. They are 8-2 SU in their last 10 versus Philly, and they are 5-0 in their last five home games versus the Flyers. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-08-23 | Predators v. Jets -165 | Top | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 16 h 43 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the JETS. It's kind of ironic that the Predators are in Winnipeg tonight battling for the final Wild Card spot in the West. These two teams took the opposite approach at the trade deadline, with Nashville dumping veteran talent and Winnipeg looking to add players for a playoff run. One of those players is former Predator Nino Niederreiter. He's scored goals in two of his last three games. The Jets have owned their own division, going 20-8 in their last 28 versus the Central. The opposite is true for Nashville, going 8-20 in their last 28 in the Central. Too many injuries for the Preds, and Winnipeg is a tough place to play. I expect the Jets to blow the doors off here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-08-23 | Penguins -166 v. Red Wings | 5-1 | Win | 100 | 25 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Pens. Pittsburgh is just one point out of a Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference, and they face a must win game on the road at Detroit Saturday. The Red Wings have already been eliminated from the playoffs, and this could be a let down spot off an overtime loss to Buffalo. The Red Wings are 6-13 in their last 19 overall, and the road team has won five of the last seven in this series. I'll fade a home team that already has one foot on the golf course. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-06-23 | Lightning v. Islanders -114 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 20 h 51 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on NYI. The Islanders face a must win game at home versus Tampa tonight, but this is actually a good spot for New York. Tampa is coming off a 6-3 loss to the Rangers, and they are scheduled to start their backup goalie here in the second game of a back to back. Brian Elliott has lost his last three road starts, giving up a whopping 18 goals in those games. Tampa has struggled in back to back situations, going 1-10 in their last 11 games playing on 0 days rest. The home team has won seven of the last nine meetings between these teams. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-02-23 | Ducks v. Flames -1.5 | 4-5 | Loss | -170 | 12 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Flames. The Rubber Duckies are dead in the water, with one foot on the golf course. Calgary is fighting for the last Wild Card spot in the West. The Ducks are 15-42 in their last 57 road games, and they are 3-13 in their last 16 games playing in the second game of a back to back. The home team is 60-27 in the last 87 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |

04-02-23 | Devils v. Jets +102 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 102 | 11 h 28 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Winnipeg Jets The Jets currently hold the final Wild Card spot in the West, and that makes tonight's home game against New Jersey a must win. The Devils won 6-3 at Chicago yesterday, and could be in a let down spot here in the second game of a back to back. The Devils have not had much success against the Jets, losing nine of the last 11 meetings. The Jets have won four of their last five home games versus New Jersey. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-02-23 | Flyers v. Penguins -204 | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Pens. It's a must win game for Pittsburgh battling for the last Wild Card spot in the East, and Philly is a team that had one foot on the golf course. The price his pretty high, but it really should be much higher. The home team is 12-5 in the last 17 meetings, and Philly has lost six of their last seven in Steel Town. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-02-23 | Bruins v. Blues +1.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on STL +1.5. So the Bruins have already clinched the Playoffs, the division, and the best record in the NHL. So playing the second game of a back to back in an early game in St. Louis looks like one helluva let down spot. The Blues are 6-3 straight up in their last nine overall, but they are 8-1 ATS in those games. The underdog is 5-2 in the last seven meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
04-01-23 | Panthers -1.5 v. Blue Jackets | 7-0 | Win | 115 | 16 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on FLA. The Panthers sit just one point back of Pittsburgh for the final Wild Card spot in the East, and they face a must win game in Columbus tonight. The Blue Jackets are already polishing their golf clubs, eliminated from playoff contention. Columbus is just 3-10 in their last 13 games overall, and eight of those 10 losses came by more than one goal. The Panthers have won eight of the last 10 versus Columbus, and seven of those eight wins came by more than one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-31-23 | Stars v. Coyotes +1.5 | 5-2 | Loss | -120 | 22 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on ARI. So the Coyotes suck right?? They have lost five in a row, they are eliminated from the playoffs and they sit 30 points back of tonight's opponent the Dallas Stars. Well it may surprise you to learn that Arizona has as many home wins (20) as the defending Stanley Cup champion Colorado Avalanche. While they have lost five straight, they are 4-1 ATS in those games. They are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-30-23 | Predators +1.5 v. Penguins | 0-2 | Loss | -148 | 15 h 16 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Nashville +1.5. The Predators are sitting three points out of the last Wild Card spot in the West, but with two games in hand they are actually in a pretty good spot. They face a Pittsburgh team that is also battling for a Wild Card spot, and these teams have a history of playing close games. Nashville is just 5-5 in their last 10 games, but they are 8-2 ATS in those games. The Penguins are 2-6 straight up and 1-7 ATS in their last eight games. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-29-23 | Panthers +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on FLA +1.5. This is a tough spot for a Leafs team that has already clinched a playoff spot, and wrapped up first place in their division. They play their first game back from a road trip at home versus a Florida team still battling for a Wild Card spot. So what does history tell us?? These teams have split the last four meetings, but three of those four games were decided in overtime. This is do or die for the Panthers who trail Pittsburgh by just three points for the final Wild Card spot. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-28-23 | Penguins -175 v. Red Wings | 4-7 | Loss | -175 | 18 h 13 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Pens. The Red Wings have just three wins in their last 15 games, and they are polishing their golf clubs in preparation for the off-season. The Penguins on the other hand are holding down the final Wild Card spot in the East, just three points ahead of Florida. The Penguins have won six of the last eight head to head meetings, and home ice has not been much of a factor in this series. The home team has lost five of the last seven head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-26-23 | Bruins v. Hurricanes -105 | 4-3 | Loss | -105 | 13 h 29 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on CAR. This is a huge let down spot for the Bruins, who clinched the Atlantic Division with a win yesterday. Both these teams are playing the second game of a back to back, but Carolina is at home and they are still fighting for first place in the division just two points up on New Jersey. The Bruins are also 0-5 in their last five games at Carolina. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-25-23 | Sabres v. Islanders -170 | 2-0 | Loss | -170 | 16 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NYI. The Isles lost in overtime at Columbus on Friday, but they earned a valuable point as they look to hold down a playoff spot. The Sabres won on home ice versus New Jersey, just their second win in their last 10 games. Buffalo has all but killed their playoff chances by losing eight of their last 10 overall. Playing on the road on back to back nights might set the Sabres up for a let down, and the home team is a PERFECT 10-0 in the last 10 head to head meetings in this series. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-23-23 | Penguins +1.5 v. Stars | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 20 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on PIT +1.5. Did you know that there have been 15 games in the NHL the last 2 days, and the puckline dog cashed in all but one of those games. The Anaheim Ducks home loss to Calgary was the only exception, and just my luck that I bet the Ducks. Here I am looking at a Penguins team that is fighting for a playoff spot, and they are an underdog in Dallas. The Stars have 14 overtime losses this season, one fewer than San Jose and Calgary who lead the league in that category. The Penguins are a PERFECT 10-0 on the puckline in their last 10 versus Dallas. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-21-23 | Flames v. Ducks +1.5 | 5-1 | Loss | -140 | 20 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on ANA +1.5. The Ducks are just 6-6 straight up in their last 12 overall, but they are 10-2 ATS during that span. The Ducks are 4-2 ATS in the last six head to head meetings between these teams, and three of the last six meetings have gone to overtime. This is a tough spot for the Flames, who play the second game of a back to back after getting blown out (8-2) in LA Last night. The Flames are 4-9 in their last 13 overall, and they are 6-32 in the last 38 meetings in Anaheim. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-20-23 | Panthers -175 v. Red Wings | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 56 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on FLA. The Red Wings were sellers at the trade deadline, and the playoffs are out of reach. The Panthers are still battling for a playoff spot. coming into tonight's game in the Motor City sitting one point out of the final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference. History favors Florida, as the Panthers are 9-1 in the last 10 meetings, and they have won four of their last five at Detroit. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-19-23 | Canucks v. Ducks +1.5 | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 9 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ANA +1.5 This is a tough spot for Vancouver, coming off an overtime loss in Arizona last night. They play on back to back nights on the road at Anaheim, and history tells us that the Canucks struggle in these situations. The Canucks are 18-47 in their last 65 games playing in the second game of a back to back. The Ducks have had the Canucks number, going 8-2 ATS in the last 10 head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-18-23 | Blackhawks v. Coyotes -140 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 17 h 20 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Arizona. I had Arizona in their last game, a win against the Vancouver Canucks. Here is what I said prior to the game: "The Coyotes continue to be undervalued at home, as the Canucks come to town as favorites. Vancouver has five fewer road wins than Arizona has at home, and when you consider that several of Vancouver's wins and several of Arizona's losses came in games decided by one goal, the puckline looks good even at a high price. The Canucks are 4-11 in their last 15 road games, while the Coyotes have won four straight at home." Now they face a Blackhawks team that has traded away all their veterans and are in full rebuild mode. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-16-23 | Seattle Kraken -154 v. Sharks | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 18 h 29 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Seattle. The Kraken have lost three straight on home ice, but they head out on the road where they have actually have a much better record. In fact Seattle has a Western Conference best 21 wins on the road, and the San Jose Sharks have the worst home record in the entire NHL. San Jose has just a half dozen home wins, the only team in the league that doesn't have 10+ wins on home ice. The Sharks are 13-41 in their last 54 home games. This is a big game for Seattle as they need to snap out of a slump to stay in a playoff spot in the Western Conference. The Sharks on the other hand are polishing their golf clubs. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-15-23 | Wild -135 v. Blues | Top | 8-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on MIN. The Wild are coming off a 5-4 loss at Arizona on Sunday, and they have had a few days to prepare for tonight's game in St. Louis. Backup goaltender Filip Gustavsson allowed five goal on 23 shots in the loss. We will see Marc Andre Fluery back between the pipes tonight, and he's 3-0 with a 1.68 GAA so far in March. The Wild are 10-3 in their last 13 overall, and they have won four of their last five road games. The Blues are just 3-9 in their last 12 overall, and they are 1-5 in their last six home games. These two teams are trending in opposite directions. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-14-23 | Flames v. Coyotes +1.5 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 19 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on the Coyotes +1.5. So Calgary will be a big favorite on the road in Arizona, despite the fact that the Coyotes have more wins at home than Calgary has on the road. The Flames are 3-6 straight up in their last nine, and just 1-8 ATS in those games. The Flames are 2-8 in their last 10 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation, and they have failed to cover in six of their last seven coming off a win. Calgary is 1-6 in their last seven versus a team with a losing record. The home team is 9-3 in the last 12 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-12-23 | Wild v. Coyotes +1.5 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 17 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Coyotes +1.5. So both teams will play in the second game of a back to back in Arizona, and the Wild come in as a heavy favorite. The line doesn't jive with the fact that Minnesota's record on the road is identical to the Coyotes record at home. History suggests this game could be close, as these teams have played three times this season and all three games were decided by one goal. The Coyotes are 4-0 ATS in their last four games overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-11-23 | Oilers +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | 4-7 | Loss | -190 | 17 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on EDM. So I had the Oilers on the puckline in their last game, and here is what I said before they beat Boston: "The Edmonton Oilers have lost by more than one goal just twice since January 11th, which makes them 21-2 ATS as a puckline underdog in their last 23 games." The Leafs have won four of their last six games overall, but they are just 1-5 as a puckline favorite during that span. The Oilers come in with the best road record in the Western Conference. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-09-23 | Oilers +1.5 v. Bruins | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 18 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on EDM +1.5. The Edmonton Oilers have lost by more than one goal just twice since January 11th, which makes them 21-2 ATS as a puckline underdog in their last 23 games. The Oilers have a history of playing close games against Boston. While they are just 5-5 straight up against the Bruins, they are 9-1 ATS in the last 10 head to head meetings. The Oilers have actually won outright in five of their last six at Boston. I'll take the dog here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-08-23 | Ducks +1.5 v. Canucks | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 17 h 6 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Ducks +1.5. At first glance it looks like a good spot to back the home favorite, but history says otherwise. The Ducks are 7-3 straight up in the last 10, 7-1 ATS in the last eight meetings, and 5-1 ATS in their last six at Vancouver. Both teams have played well despite being out of the playoffs. The Ducks are 4-2 straight up in their last six overall, and they are 5-1 ATS in those games. The Canucks are also 4-2 straight up in their last six overall, but only one of those games was a win by more than one goal. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-07-23 | Hurricanes v. Canadiens +1.5 | 4-3 | Win | 115 | 16 h 9 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on MTL +1.5. The Habs have lost three straight one goal games, and they are 6-1 ATS in their last seven overall. They host Carolina, and the Canes might be due for a let down coming off a 6-0 win over Tampa. The home team is 8-1 SU in the last nine head to head meetings, and the Hurricanes are 5-12 in the last 17 meetings in Montreal. This looks like a good spot to take the home dog plus money on the puckline. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
03-06-23 | Predators v. Canucks OVER 6 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 21 h 7 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Canucks have remained competitive despite being sellers at the trade deadline, winning four of their last seven. The same can be said for tonight's opponent, as Nashville has won five of their last six. These teams have gone over in each of the previous two meetings this season, and the over is 15-6-5 in the Canucks last 26 overall. The over is 12-3 in the last 15 head to head meetings, and six of the last seven in Vancouver have gone over the total. I will ride those trends here given that the number sits at 6 instead of 6.5.

03-04-23 | Red Wings v. Islanders -188 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 11 h 8 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on NYI. The Red Wings have dealt away much of their top talent at the trade deadline, while the Islanders have brought in high end talent from other teams to gear up for a playoff run. That means these two teams are heading in different directions, and they have different goals for the remainder of the season. The home team has won seven straight in this series, and the Red Wings have lost five straight at Long Island. GL, Jesse Schule |

03-02-23 | Predators v. Panthers -160 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -160 | 17 h 56 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on FLA. The Panthers and the Predators are each currently sitting a few points out of a Wild Card spot. The Panthers probably have a far better chance of clinching a playoff spot, and the Predators intentions look pretty clear as they dealt a bunch of their top players at the trade deadline. Home ice has been kind to Florida, as they are 64-25 in their last 89 home games. A win over Nashville could pull them within two points of a playoff spot. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-28-23 | Kings v. Jets -137 | Top | 6-5 | Loss | -137 | 20 h 6 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on the Jets. Winnipeg is gearing up for the playoffs, and picking up Nino Niederreiter at the trade deadline says plenty about their intentions. They come into tonight's game against LA as losers of five of their last six, but they have won four of their last five versus LA. This is a tough spot for the Kings who are the end of a long road trip. The Kings have lost seven of their last 10 versus teams with a winning record, and they are 3-8 in their last 11 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. The Kings are 5-12 in the last 17 meetings in Winnipeg. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-24-23 | Canadiens v. Flyers OVER 6 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 16 h 2 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Habs are coming off a 5-2 win at New Jersey, their third straight game going over the total. They are in Philly tonight, and these two teams went over in all three meetings in 2022. Montreal hasn't played since Tuesday, and the over is 5-0-1 in the Canadiens last six games playing on 2 days rest. Philly has gone over the number in four of their last five overall, and the over is 9-4 in the Flyers last 13 home games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-23-23 | Bruins v. Seattle Kraken +1.5 | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 16 h 58 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on SEA. The Kraken are coming off a 4-0 loss at San Jose, but they have won four of their last five home games. They host the Boston Bruins, who come in as winners of four straight. This will be the fourth time these teams have met, and Boston has won two of three meetings. Both of those wins came in gamed that ended with a final score of 3-2. The Kraken are 11-4 in their last 15 games against teams from the Eastern Conference. They should give the Bruins a run for their money here. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-20-23 | Jets v. Rangers -165 | 4-1 | Loss | -165 | 19 h 50 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on NYR. The Jets are coming off a 4-2 loss at New Jersey on Sunday, and they play the second game of a back to back on the road at New York on Monday. The Rangers had won seven straight before losing in overtime at Calgary on Saturday. New York has won five straight at home, and the Rangers are 12-1 in their last 13 versus Western Conference teams. The Jets have lost four straight versus Eastern Conference teams, and they are 9-25 in their last 34 versus the Metropolitan Division. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-18-23 | Coyotes +1.5 v. Kings | 5-6 | Win | 100 | 15 h 3 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on ARI Puckline. This is a sneaky little underdog play on Arizona on the puckline. Let's keep it simple, the Coyotes are 7-0 ATS in their last seven overall. The Kings are playing the second game of a back to back off a win at Anaheim last night. LA has won six of the last 10 meetings in this series, but the Coyotes are 7-3 ATS in those games. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
02-10-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Rangers -172 | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 18 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the NYR. The Seattle Kraken are in a tough spot on Friday night. They play the second game of a back to back in New York City, after losing 3-1 at New Jersey last night. They come into this game in a slump, losing six of their last nine overall and three straight on the road. The Rangers have won nine straight versus Western Conference teams, and four straight at home. They are 10-4 in their last 14 games playing on 1 days rest. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-28-23 | Blackhawks v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | Top | 3-7 | Win | 100 | 17 h 27 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. The Oilers had won six straight before dropping a home game to Columbus, and they host the Blackhawks off an upset win in Calgary. Edmonton has the best power play in the league, and they should have plenty of success against this Hawks penalty killing unit. The over is 9-2 in the last 11 meetings, and the Hawks have gone over in five of their last six at Edmonton. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-25-23 | Canucks v. Seattle Kraken OVER 6.5 | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 21 h 22 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Canucks have a new coach, and they picked up a 5-2 win in Rick Tochett's debut behind the bench. Vancouver will play the second game of a back to back tonight in Seattle. These two teams rank among the highest scoring teams in the NHL, both own a potent power play and a below average penalty kill. This figures to be a recipe for another high score. These teams have gone over in five straight meetings, and the most recent was a 6-5 win for the Canucks a few days before Christmas. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-24-23 | Sabres v. Blues OVER 6.5 | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 18 h 46 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Sabres rank 1st in the NHL in scoring averaging 3.8 goal per game, but they are also one of the worst in the NHL in goals against, allowing 3.44 goals per game. They play their second game of a back to back in St. Louis, and they have gone over in six straight against the Blues. The over is 6-2-1 in the Sabres last nine in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation. The over is 32-15-4 in the Blues last 51 overall. We should see another high scoring game in St. Louis. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-21-23 | Oilers -165 v. Canucks | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 20 h 26 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on EDM. The Oilers have won five straight overall, and they are just three points out of first place in the Pacific Division with a game in hand on first place Seattle. The Canucks have lost six of seven, and this season is a lost cause for Vancouver. This might be a revenge spot for the Oilers, who lost at home two Vancouver two days before Christmas. Edmonton had won five straight in the series prior to that loss. This matchup features Edmonton's NHL best power play against the Canucks 31st ranked penalty killing unit. Only the Anaheim Ducks have allowed more power play goals than Vancouver. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-18-23 | Lightning v. Canucks OVER 6.5 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 21 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. The Canucks are struggling, winning just two of their last nine games overall. They don't have any problem scoring goals, averaging 3.4 goals per game. They haven't had any success on defense, as only the Anaheim Ducks have allowed more goals this season. This will be the Canucks first home game after playing four straight on the road. Tampa Bay is in town, and these teams have gone over in four of the last five meetings. The over is 19-7-1 in the last 27 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-17-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 20 h 36 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. Release The Kraken! Ladies and gentlemen the hottest team in the NHL hails from The Emerald City, and Seattle had won eight in a row, prior to losing to Tampa last night. They scored a whopping 36 goals in those wins. Seattle has a potent power play, but they face the Oilers who have the best power play in the NHL. These teams have gone over in all five head to head meetings. The over is 19-7-2 in the Oilers last 28 overall, and they have scored 17 goals in their last three games. The Kraken have gone over in five of their last six versus Pacific Division opponents. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-16-23 | Lightning v. Seattle Kraken OVER 6.5 | 4-1 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 25 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Release The Kraken! Ladies and gentlemen the hottest team in the NHL hails from The Emerald City, and Seattle has won eight in a row. They scored a whopping 36 goals in those games. Seattle has a potent power play, but they face the Tampa Bay lightning who own the #2 ranked power play in the league. The Lightning are 20-7 in their last 27 overall, and they have scored 30 goals in their last seven wins. We should see a shootout in Seattle tonight. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
01-09-23 | Seattle Kraken v. Canadiens OVER 6.5 | 4-0 | Loss | -102 | 11 h 10 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Seattle Kraken come into Montreal as one of the hottest teams in the NHL, and during a four game winning streak they have scored 22 goals. They face a Canadiens team that ranks near the bottom of the league in goals against. Only Vancouver, Anaheim and Columbus have allowed more goals than Montreal. The Habs are banged up on the blue line, making it unlikely their defensive woes will end any time soon. We should expect this game to be high scoring all things considered. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-22-22 | Seattle Kraken -110 v. Canucks | Top | 5-6 | Loss | -110 | 21 h 24 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on SEA. The Vancouver Canucks have won all five head to head meetings versus division rivals Seattle, but I am going to fade that 100% trend here tonight. These two teams are obviously trending in opposite directions, as Vancouver is coming off back to back 5-1 home losses, and the Canucks are rumored to be shopping team captain Bo Horvat and star defenseman Quinn Hughes. The Kraken are coming off back to back home wins, but they actually have a better road record than they do at home. The Kraken are 7-3 in their last 10 road games, and they are 11-3 in their last 14 games following a win. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-14-22 | Canucks v. Flames -150 | 4-3 | Loss | -150 | 21 h 55 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Calgary. The Flames are a Jeckyll and Hyde team, with 10 wins at home and just three on the road. They are coming off three straight road losses, but two of those games were decided in OT. The Flames are 7-3 in their last 10 versus Vancouver, and they have won four of their last five home games versus the Canucks. The Canucks are 5-17 in the last 22 meetings in Calgary. Vancouver has recently failed to re-sign captain Bo Horvat, and are expected to be shopping him around the league. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-10-22 | Flames v. Maple Leafs -154 | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 19 h 54 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on TOR. The Leafs host the Calgary Flames on Hockey Night in Canada on Saturday night, and the Flames are playing their second game of a back to back after losing in Columbus last night. The Leafs have won seven of their last eight overall, and they are 40-15 in their last 55 home games. The Flames have lost four straight when playing the second game of a back to back. The Flames have lost four straight road games and they are 4-10 in their last 14 games versus the Eastern Conference. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-09-22 | Sharks v. Ducks OVER 6 | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 20 h 33 m | Show | |
This is a 10* play on Over. The Sharks will be on the road in Anaheim in a game between two of the league's worst teams. The Ducks rank dead last in the NHL allowing over four goals per game. The Sharks aren't much better, and without starting goaltender James Reimer they might be worse off. Backup netminder Kaapo Kahkonen is 3-6-2 with a 3.71 GAA in a dozen appearances. This will be the third time these teams meet this season, and they combined to score 20 goals in their first two meetings. The over is 15-5-1 in the Sharks last 21 overall, and the over is 10-1-2 in their last 13 versus Pacific Division opponents. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
12-06-22 | Canadiens v. Seattle Kraken OVER 6.5 | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 16 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. Montreal is coming off a wild 7-6 OT loss at Vancouver, in a game that saw them blow a 4-0 lead. We might see another high score here in Seattle, as the Kraken have one of the league's best power play units and one of the worst penalty killing units. The over is 6-0 in the Canadiens last six games following an OT game. The Habs have also gone over in 12 of their last 16 when playing the second game of a back to back. GL, Jesse Schule |
|||||||
11-26-22 | Canucks v. Golden Knights OVER 6.5 | 5-1 | Loss | -115 | 15 h 14 m | Show | |
This is a 3* play on Over. Vancouver might be the best over bet in hockey, going over in 14 of 20 games so far. They score a ton of goals (3.5 per game), but they give up even more (3.9 per game). They are great on the power play (5th) and brutal on the penalty kill (30th). The over is 19-7-1 in the Canucks last 27 road games, and they have gone over in four of their last five versus Las Vegas. The over is 7-3 in the Golden Knights last 10 overall. GL, Jesse Schule |
