02-16-21 | Islanders -125 v. Sabres | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 25 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* TRADE-MARK). The Islanders jumped out to a 2-0 lead in Buffalo last night, before then holding on for the 3-1 victory. Buffalo had been off for several weeks due to COVID related issues and it didn't have its game legs underneath it. And in the second game of the back-to-back, I look for that to once again be the case here. I think this is a great price on a red hot Islanders team. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 New York. |
|||||||
02-11-21 | Flames v. Canucks +132 | Top | 3-1 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Canucks are the much more desprate dog in this fight and I look for them to kick off this four-game home stand with a hard-fought victory. Vancouver will be out to break a poor slide in which it's been outscored 26-10 over its last five games. Vancouver will be facing its ex-goaltender twoday in Jacob Markstrom, which adds incentive as well. Calgary has been hit or miss this year, so I just can't trust the Flames to be able to deal a knock out blow in this situation. Instead, I look for the hungry home side to dig deep and finally play a good game; great value! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks. |
|||||||
02-10-21 | Maple Leafs +100 v. Canadiens | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Leafs (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). These are two of the best teams in the league. On both ends of the ice. These are the two highest-scoring teams, and each has a top ten defense as well. These teams are very familiar with each other and they'll be seeing a lot more of each other in the very near future. Including on again on Friday night. Toronto is firing on all cylinders right now and I think offers great value here in an upset role! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Leafs. |
|||||||
02-07-21 | Hurricanes v. Blue Jackets +129 | Top | 6-5 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 21 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I don't think that the home ice advantage here can be overlooked as a very real deciding factor. Carolina is 6-2-0 on the season, while Columbus is 5-4-3. Carolina looks ripe for a letdown here as well after its five-game win streak was snapped in its last game to Chicago. It's had to say too many negative things about the Hurricanes in the early going, as their numbers are really good on both ends of the ice. However, I simply feel they're in the wrong place at the wrong time today. Bad spot after the loss to the Hawks and facing a motivated home side which just broke a two-game slide with a confidence-building 4-3 win over the Stars in its last outing. A great situational play to add to our bankroll! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 CBJ. |
|||||||
02-06-21 | Sharks v. Ducks -114 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 14 h 52 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Anaheim Ducks (10* BLOWOUT BEST OF THE BEST). San Jose had a couple games postponed due to some virus issues, and it came out on fire in last night's 5-3 victory. Anaheim was off a 3-1 win over the Kings and while the Ducks look flat footed last night, I think they're in a prime spot here to bounce back in the second game of the B2B situation. Despite last night's result, Anaheim has had the steadier goaltending to open the season. The Ducks are also 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge an in-season home loss to an opponent in which they conceded five or more goals in. I'm banking on a bounce back and at a great price to boot! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Ducks. |
|||||||
01-30-21 | Canucks +119 v. Jets | Top | 4-1 | Win | 119 | 13 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* TRADE-MARK). Vancouver is on a roll and I like the Canucks to keep the momentum rolling here. Overall Vancouver enters having won three in a row. All three victories came against the Senators, but the Canucks have definitely looked better over that stretch and I expect that to continue here. Winnipeg has won four of its last five. Overall the Canucks average 3.85 GPG, while allowing 3.65. Winnipeg is averaging 3.56 GPG, while allowing 3.00. This is a great spot to pull the trigger on the slight underdog upset here, as note that the Canucks are 7-2 in their last nine road games following a three games or longer unbeaten streak. Great value on the Canucks! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks. |
|||||||
01-28-21 | Panthers v. Blue Jackets -108 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Columbus lost to the Panthers 4-3 in extra time two nights ago, so revenge is definitely on the mind of the Jackets. Columbus is just 2-6 so far this year and it has an extended road trip after this, starting in Chicago tomorrow night. After a sharp 3-0 start to the season, it's difficult to say anything negative about the Panthers, so I won't bother. I simply feel this sets up as a letdown spot and I like the Jackets to cash at what I think is a truly fantastic price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jackets. |
|||||||
01-27-21 | Senators v. Canucks -145 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 27 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* TRADE-MARK). The Canucks destoryed the Senators 7-1 here two nights ago and I expect another decisive vicotry for the home side in this second matchup as well. The Senators lack offensive punch and if they get down early, then they're forced to play from behind, which means pushing things on the offensive end, which invariably leaves them open on the backend. Vancouver advanced to the second round of the playoffs last year, getting by Minnesota and while it lost some talent, its core group on offense remains. The biggest knock on the Canucks early is their goaltending and defensive play, but they have a big opportunity to improve their numbers here vs. this poor Sens' offense. All things considered, I believe this to be the very definition of "great line value." T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. |
|||||||
01-25-21 | Senators v. Canucks -149 | Top | 1-7 | Win | 100 | 14 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Both teams have been terrible. This is the proverbial "Cellar Dwellers" facing off here in the North Conference. Both teams can pin their troubles on poor goaltending and defensive play. Vancouver's offense has been better than Ottawa's though. The Canucks just went 1-2 in their series vs. Montreal, but they have a big advantage here by staying at home and facing the lowly Senators, who enter off three straight losses against the Jets, the last coming in Winnipeg itself after dropping two in a row at home. This is the perfect opponent for Vancouver to get untracked against - I'm laying the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. |
|||||||
01-24-21 | Sharks v. Wild -148 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -148 | 13 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Wild (10* TRADE-MARK). Minnesota won the first game 4-1 two nights ago and I expect a similar final outcome here as well. This is the sixth game of an eight-game road trip for San Jose to open up the year and I think its running out of gas now for sure. Cam Talbot and Kaapo Kahkonen are difference-makers in net for Minnesota as well. It's very interesting to note as well that the Sharks are 2-8 in their last ten when their opponent allows two goals or less in their previous game. Look for Minnesota to deliver in this favorable matchup, at this favorable mid-sized price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Wild. |
|||||||
01-22-21 | Sabres v. Capitals +120 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 120 | 11 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* BLOWOUT BEST OF THE BEST). Washington comes in having lost two straight, the first game in OT to the Pens and then in a shootout to Pittsburgh. In the most recent loss to the Pens Tom Wilson scored twice and Lars Eller and Evgeny Kuznetsov also found the back of the net. Washington will be without a few key pieces due to COVID protocol, including Alexander Ovechkin, and that's the reason why this price has swung so dramatically. The Sabres play with "double revenge" after losing the first two games of this season at home to the Capitals, but they're just 1-3 and in no position to take advantage here. Despite Washington being down those key players, it's still the better team here in my opinion. Often in cases like this where main players go down, the rest of the team will step up in that first game and that's going to be the case here in my opinion. Also note that Washington is still 15-6 in its last 21 vs. a team with a winning percentage below .400. Look for the home side to dig deep and find a way to get the job done! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Washington. |
|||||||
01-21-21 | Jets -122 v. Senators | Top | 4-1 | Win | 100 | 12 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jets (10* TRADE-MARK). Winnipeg has won two of three after taking the first game off the Senators in OT. The Jets turn to Connor Hellebuyck in net, he lost 3-1 to the Leafs in his last outing, allowing two goals on 37 shots. Matt Murray allowed four goals on 28 shots to the Jets and I think the home side is overmatched once again tonight. Finally note that Ottawa is a poor 2-9 in its last 11 vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600, while the Jets are 5-1 in their last six vs. a club with a losing record. All things considered, this is the very definition of "great line value." Play on the Jets! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jets. |
|||||||
01-20-21 | Canadiens v. Canucks +110 | Top | 5-6 | Win | 110 | 14 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* GAME OF THE MONTH). Montreal has done well to open up the year, but I think that Vancouver will find a way to get the job done here in the opener of this three-game series. MOntreal has plenty of talent up front and in the back. So too does Vancouver and after losing three in a row, the Canucks are for sure the much hungrier team in this fight. Vancouver has to be feeling confident though, as it's performed well in this spot (especially for bettors!), going 7-0 in its last seven vs. teams with a winning percentage above .600 and 9-4 in its last 13 when playing on one days rest. Conversely, the Habs have done poorly in this position by going just 3-7 in their last ten after allowing two or less goals in their previous outing. In my opinion, this is the very definition of "great line value; the play is the Canucks! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. |
|||||||
01-18-21 | Sabres v. Flyers -146 | 6-1 | Loss | -146 | 12 h 46 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (8* MONEY-MAKER). There's no question that Buffalo will be "hungry" here after going 0-2 against the Capitals to begin the season, but I simply can't see them competing here against the high-flying Flyers, who are simply better right now over the Sabres in every single category. Honestly, this play is all about "line value" for me. I think Philadelphia should be well over a -200 favorite, so that's the difference here, as I can't turn down what I feel to be the very definition of "great line value." Expect the better home side to come in focussed and to lay the hammer down start to finish; the play is Philly! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Flyers. |
|||||||
01-17-21 | Blackhawks v. Panthers -148 | Top | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Panthers (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Chicago just got destroyed in two games in Tampa, and now it travels to face a Panthers team which sees its first action of the season. The Blackhawks are dealing with injury issues right now, most notably to Jon Toews, which is obviously big for this overall younger and rebuilding Chicago team. Dallas had a COVID outbreak, so now the Panthers finally get to take the ice. Note that Florida is 5-1 in its last six vs. teams with a winning percentage below .600. The Blackhawks are also just 1-6 in their last seven now as an underdog. Even without top goaltender Sergei Bobrvosky in net, I like the home side to dig deep here and deliver; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Panthers. |
|||||||
01-15-21 | Blues v. Avalanche -137 | 0-8 | Win | 100 | 13 h 32 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Avs (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). I played on Vancouver in its upset win in Edmonton to open the season. Then last night I played the Oilers to bounce back and win in the second contest. Here we have an identical situation, where the Blues blew out Colorado in the first game, but where I believe the Avs will make adjustments and come out flying here in the second. St. Louis has absolutely accomplished what it's wanted to on this road trip. The Avalanche though will be risking everything here to try and avoid an 0-2 start. Considering the circumstances, I believe we're getting unreal value on the home side in this one! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Colorado. |
|||||||
01-14-21 | Canucks v. Oilers -120 | 2-5 | Win | 100 | 13 h 9 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (8*). The NHL season is going to be a different one. Teams are going to see each other upwards of ten times per year. Most times they're going to play back-to-back in the same building. It might not be on back-to-back nights, but teams are going to regularly play each other twice this year. And that's the case here. Vancouver managed the 5-3 upset win last night, but I expect the home side to respond here. Edmonton is too deep offensively to be held down and it now has a clear motivational edge as well. All things considered, a great price on the Oilers. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. |
|||||||
01-14-21 | Flames -113 v. Jets | 3-4 | Loss | -113 | 12 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Flames (8*). Calary has won two straight in this series. Of course, that was last year. The Flames got eliminated by Dallas in the playoff bubble last season. Calgary brought in Jacob Markstrom between the pipes from Vancouver though and he is a big improvement. Calgary averaged 2.91 GPG last year. Winnipeg averaged 3.00 GPG last season, but it allowed 2.83. Home ice advantage means little during the Pandemic. Look for the Flames to score the slight upset on Opening night! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
01-13-21 | Canucks +117 v. Oilers | 5-3 | Win | 117 | 14 h 45 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Canucks finished with the better record last year. Vancouver has had some turnover in its roster, including in net, as Braden Holtby is now the No. 1 netminder. The Oilers have one of the best players in the league in Connor McDavid, but the big knock against the Oilers has been their depth and defensive play. Will those issues be resolved this year? Vancouver does have depth, and it does have experience. I like the Canucks here to pull off the minor upset on the road here against a team that they're going to be come very familar with this season. T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. |
|||||||
09-07-20 | Islanders +136 v. Lightning | Top | 2-8 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Much like the Dallas Stars did to the Vegas Knights last night, I think that New York is going to surprise the Lightning. I think the goaltenders in this series are a "wash," for all intents and purposes these guys are all playing so well that any of them can outplay the other on any given night. Goaltending is a "wash" in this series in my opinion. New York is going to catch a Lightning team which has had a few extra days off and which I think will come out flat and slow because of that. This is the perfect situation to pull the trigger on this under-rated underdog in Game 1! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders. |
|||||||
09-06-20 | Stars v. Golden Knights -157 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -157 | 27 h 0 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Las Vegas (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I think the Golden Knights should be a significantly larger favorite here. I think Dallas is gassed. Las Vegas should have wrapped up its series in five or six games vs. the Canucks, but it ran into a super hot goaltender. The Knights had 130 shots on net over the final three games of that series and I beleive they're also the better defensive club in this series as well. The Stars blew a 3-1 series lead as well, before then finding a way to deliver in OT in Game 7. I think a classic "letdown" is in store for Dallas and because of that, I have no issues at all in laying this larger price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vegas. |
|||||||
08-31-20 | Stars v. Avalanche -135 | Top | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 13 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Avalanche (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I like Colorado to fight tooth and nail here and extend this series after last night's 5-4 loss to the Stars. Dallas has exceeded everyone's expectations to this point, and I'm sure even its own. The Stars are primed for a classic letdown here in my opinion (note that Dallas is a poor 2-7 in its last nine after a four-games or longer unbeaten streak and just 3-6 in its lats nine after allowing four or more goals in a victory in its last outing. Expect the desperate Avlanche to take advantage and find a way to deliver at the end of the night! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Avs. |
|||||||
08-25-20 | Bruins v. Lightning -104 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lightning (10* BODY-CHECK). These teams are evenly matched. Tampa looked better as Game 1 went on and now it's out for revenge as it looks to avoid an 0-2 hole. The goaltenders are a wash in this series, so let's throw that factor out the window completely. Tampa went 4-1 against Boston in the regular season and despite nothing having Steve Stamkos in the line-up, I'll point out that the Bolts are still 7-2 in their last nine after a one goal defeat. I'm banking on the "hungrier" team getting the job done in Game 2! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Bolts. |
|||||||
08-24-20 | Stars v. Avalanche -158 | Top | 5-2 | Loss | -158 | 30 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Avalanche (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Stars shocked the Avs in Game 1, but I believe that Colorado will make the necessary adjustments here and even this series up at 1-1. Colorado actually outshot Dallas in that one, 31-30. But after four straight victories, I believe the Stars finall stumble here. And despite losing to Dallas last time out, I'll point out that the Avs are still 5-1 in their last six vs. the Central division. Colorado has averaged more goals than any team since the re-start and it's already followed up its previous two defeats with victories immediately after. Look for this trend to continue and lay the price with confidence! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Avs. |
|||||||
08-23-20 | Bruins -104 v. Lightning | Top | 3-2 | Win | 100 | 28 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins (10* MONEY-MAKER). Boston has gone 4-4 in the bubble, including its seeding games. The Bruins didn't take their first three games all that seriously though, so that record is skewed. The Bolts are 6-2 in the bubble, but I think the Presidents Cup Trophy winners will find a way to get the job done tonight. Pastrnak is back for the Bruins and in just the one game he's played he's already made an impact. The Lightning made it past Columbus without Hedman and Stamkos, but I can't see them getting past Boston tonight, who appears to now be trending in the correct direction. This is a great price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Bruins. |
|||||||
08-21-20 | Flyers v. Canadiens +116 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 24 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canadiens (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I think the Habs will bounce back here and force this series to a decisive Game 7. The Flyers have been terribly inconsistent in this series and I expect that trend to continue here. I think Carter Hart and Carey Price are a "wash." Note though that the Habs are 14-7 in their last 21 after scoring five or more goals in a two goals or larger victory. Hold onto your hats boys, this series is heading for an exciting Game 7! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Habs. |
|||||||
08-20-20 | Stars -122 v. Flames | Top | 7-3 | Win | 100 | 29 h 18 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars (10* TRADE-MARK). The Stars have slowly been playing a lot better of late. Dallas domianted in the regular season, not with its offense, but with its tight and gritty defensive play. The Flames are starting to get worn down here and I think they'll stumble after losing Game 5. Dallas' goalie Anton Khudobin is 3-3 with a 2.41 GAA and I think he'll get the better of his counterpart Cam Talbot, who is just 3-6-1 with a 3.64 GAA lifetime vs. Calgary. Lay the short price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Dallas. |
|||||||
08-18-20 | Capitals +102 v. Islanders | Top | 3-2 | Win | 102 | 12 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* TRADE-MARK). I admit that I'm a little surprised at how well the Islanders have played in this series. The oddsmakers priced this series pretty evenly, but I definitely never expected Washington to be down 0-3 at this point. And I definitely don't think the Capitals will go down quietly here. Washington was among the league's best on both ends of the ice this season and it's loaded with proud, veteran talent (I'll point out as well that Washington is 7-2 in its last nine after three or more straight losses.) I say, NO SWEEP FOR YOU Islanders! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Capitals. |
|||||||
08-18-20 | Flyers v. Canadiens +118 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canadiens (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). This has been an extremely even, back and forth series. Philly leads 2-1 after its 1-0 win last time out. Montreal won 5-0 previous to that. I think this back and forth pattern continues though on Tuesday as I look for Carey Price and the Canadiens to dig deep here and find a way to get the job done. Carter Hart looked good in Game 3, but he looked poor in Game 4 in net for the Flyers. The Canadiens though have been extremely consistent on the defensive end of the ice and I believe that will once again be the case here vs. this now stuttering Flyers offense (interesting to note that Montreal is 10-6-0 when outshooting its opponent on the road in its previous outing.) I'm banking on Montreal responding in Game 4! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Habs. |
|||||||
08-17-20 | Bruins -123 v. Hurricanes | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Boston is going through some adversity off the ice with goaltender Tuuka Rask leaving the team due to Covid reasons, but it still has a 2-1 lead in this series. I think the Bruins are the better team in this matchup and I like them to take a strangle-hold here. Jaroslav Halak is 1-1 with a 2.59 GAA in the playoffs for Boston and he's 6-6-1 with a 2.61 GAA lifetime vs. the Hurricanes. Hurricanes' netminder Petr Mrazek is 4-2-1 with a 3.09 GAA lifetime vs. Boston, but note that the Canes are a poor 1-4 in their last five playoff games as an underdog and only 8-17 in their last 25 vs. a team with a winning percentage above .600. The Bruins on the other hand 7-1 in their last eight when playing on one days rest. Great value on the "better" team! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Boston. |
|||||||
08-16-20 | Capitals -107 v. Islanders | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -107 | 16 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* TRADE-MARK). The Capitals have been competitive throughout this series, but the Islanders now have a two-game lead. Washington is on the ropes here, as a 3-0 hole will clearly be too much for this team to climb out of. If the Capitals are going to make a move and get back into this series, they have to find a way to get the job done here. The Isles took out the Panthers in four games and a letdown definitely now seems inevitable to me at this point. I think the now desperate Capitals offer great value in Game 3! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Capitals. |
|||||||
08-14-20 | Islanders v. Capitals -120 | 5-2 | Loss | -120 | 28 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (8*). Washington led this game 2-0, until the Isles exploded for four goals in a span of 13 minutes in the third period. It was a little unexpected, considering how well Washington looked up till that point. But the Caps are an experienced team and they've been through adversity and a little "hiccup" like that won't deter this veteran laden squad in my opinion. The Isles' strength is their depth across the four lines and comptent goaltending. But with their backs against the wall, I believe Alexander Ovechkin and the stars on Washington "steal the show" in Game 2. Lay the short price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Caps. |
|||||||
08-14-20 | Canucks v. Blues -134 | 4-3 | Loss | -134 | 26 h 18 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blues (8*). I think the defending champs will bounce back here. St. Louis has been here before and it's still loaded with veteran talent that has been through the grinder and knows how to bounce back. The Canucks are largely in unchartered territory here and I do think that their inexperience will hurt them in trying to close out their opponent here. Also note that Van is a poor 3-8 in its last 11 after a three goals or more victory in its previous outing. All things considered, I believe this line could/should in fact be a lot larger, swinging the value in favor of the home side here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Blues. |
|||||||
08-13-20 | Flames v. Stars -103 | Top | 4-5 | Win | 100 | 31 h 0 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars Game 1 was very entertaining and really the Stars had their chances to win, but in the end the Flames pulled away for the 3-2 victory. The Stars looked poor in their three round robin games, but they looked considerably better in Game 1, especially as the contest went on. The reverse though could be said for the Flames, who seemed to struggle as the contest progressed. Dallas is 7-3 in its last ten after a one goal loss in which it scored two or less goals in as well. Dallas is filled with veteran talent, which I expect to make the necessary adjustments to pull out a victory in Game 2! T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Stars |
|||||||
08-12-20 | Canucks +135 v. Blues | Top | 5-2 | Win | 135 | 53 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10*) The defending champs come into this years playoffs as the #4 seed as they will face the flaming hot Canucks for a trip to the Quarter Finals. The Blues come into this game winless, since returning from the global pandemic with a 0-2-1 record. They will rely mostly on goalie, Jordan Binnington, to step up his game, just like last playoffs if they want to have a chance at another Stanley Cup. Also, they will need strong performances out of Vladimir Tararesenko and captain Ryan O’Reilly. On the other hand, the Canucks beat out the Minnesota Wild, in a very high scoring Qualifying Series. They will look to continue their success into this round and further. Brock Boeser (Canuck Forward) wasn’t at his best in the Opener, but has certainly stepped up his game in the last 3 games. They will rely on GK Jacob Markstrom to back them up as he played every single minute of the last series. He’s been rock solid, so they might as well ride the wave. I expect some low scoring games, but at least one or two high scoring ones here. Canucks take out the champs in Game 1. Prediction: 4-3 Canucks. |

08-12-20 | Islanders v. Capitals -129 | 4-2 | Loss | -129 | 46 h 15 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (8*). I think the Isles will come out a bit flat here after their four-game series win over the Panthers. The Capitals only won one of their three round robin games, but much like Tampa Bay, I believe Washington was just "going through the motions" as it got ready for the playoffs. Tampa was 0-3 in its round robin games, but it held on for the 3-2 win in five OT's last night. Washington has no significant injuries like the Lightning though. I like the veteran super stars on the Caps to help Washington take Game 1! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Caps. |
|||||||
08-11-20 | Blue Jackets +155 v. Lightning | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 22 h 43 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (10* MONEY-MAKER). Columbus took two of three from the Lightning in the regular season. The Blue Jackets also knocked out Tampa in the first round last year. The extra time off to heal up and address a few issues has absolutely benefited Columbus, as evidenced by its 3-2 series win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. Tampa is built almost identically to Toronto, however it's now missing both its top defenseman in Hedman and its top scorer in Stamkos as well. I love the depth of the Jackets top four lines and its defense and goaltending is likely better as well. This one has upset written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jackets. |
|||||||
08-09-20 | Stars v. Blues -133 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -133 | 17 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: St. Louis Blues (10* ANNIHILATION). This is the last game of the round-robin stage of the Western Conference and the winner of this gets the 3rd seed, while the loser gets the 4th. These teams are similar in many regards, as evidenced by the money line that Las Vegas has set. The Stars though have completely looked terrible in their two games, conceding a total of eight unanswered goals. Stars' goalie Anton Khudobin is 0-1 with a 4.00 GAA. The Blues are 0-2 as well, but they've looked more competitive to this point, losing 2-1 to Colorado and 6-4 to the Golden Knights. Blues' goalie Jordan Binnington is the more experienced netminder in this matchup and I think that matters here. Also note that the Blues are 6-1 the last seven in this series, while Dallas is 0-8 in its last eight overall. I'm laying the very reasonabel price on what I believe to be the much better overall team right now. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Blues. |
|||||||
08-08-20 | Golden Knights +113 v. Avalanche | Top | 4-3 | Win | 113 | 6 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden Knights (10* MONEY-MAKER). These two teams play out their final round robin contest before the real playoffs start and I think it favors the Golden Knights. Las Vegas enters off a 6-4 win over the Blues. Note that Knights' netminder Marc Andre Fleury is 11-5-2 with a 2.50 GAA lifetime vs. the Avs. Colorado comes in off a 4-0 win over Dallas. Pavel Francouz is 1-0 with a 3.00 GAA liftime vs. Vegas. These teams are very similar, but the Knights' superior offense wins the day in this matchup in my opinion! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Knights. |
|||||||
08-07-20 | Maple Leafs -140 v. Blue Jackets | Top | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Maple Leafs (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). It's do or die for Toronto here, who was the favorite to win this series going into the five game event. The Jackets erased a 3-0 deficit in Game 3 to win, but I don't see lightning "striking twice" in this case, as I think Toronto will go up early again, except this time I expect it to keep its foot on the throat of Columbus today. Even though Columbus has scored more goals at 5-on-5, Toronto has attempted more shots, created more expected goals and generated more high-danger scoring chances. I'm rolling with the more desperate team! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Leafs. |
|||||||
08-06-20 | Canucks +107 v. Wild | Top | 3-0 | Win | 107 | 6 h 56 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks (10* MONEY-MAKER). This series is tied 1-1, but I think that Vancouver will build off its most recent 4-3 Game 2 victory. JT Miller was big in Game 2, posting a goal and an assist for Vancouver. Canucks' netminder Jacob Markstrom has been solid as well with a 2.54 GAA thus far. Eric Staal has been leading the way for Minnesota with four points in this series so far and Alex Stalock does have a 2.03 GAA, but note that the Wild are just 2-7 in their last nine after allowing four or more goals in a loss in their previous game. The Canucks on the other hand are 8-4 in their last 12 after scoring four or more goals in a one goal victory. I'm banking on these trends continuing! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks. |
|||||||
08-05-20 | Islanders v. Panthers +113 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 113 | 4 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Florida Panthers (10* MONEY-MAKER). It's DO OR DIE time for the Panthers, who lost 2-1 and 4-2 to the Isles over the first two games of this five-game "play in" series. It's difficult to beat any team three times in a row. Yes the odds are completely against the Panthers to come back here in this series, but I also don't expect them to get swept. The Isles have generated ten power plays in two games, but note that they'd finish 31st in power-play opportunties during the regular season. These teams are in fact very evenly matched (a sentiment still shared by the oddsmakers, despite the Isles being up 2-0 in this series!), but I look for the "hungrier/more desperate" one to prevail. Great value on the Panthers this afternoon! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Panthers. |
|||||||
08-04-20 | Blue Jackets v. Maple Leafs -143 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Leafs (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Edmonton was a favorite in its Game 1 matchup vs. Chicago and lost, but the Oilers rebounded to win their Game 2 matchup 6-3 last night. Same thing happened to Pittsburgh vs. Montreal, as the Pens fell in their opener, only to recover and win 3-1 last night. This is a similar case, as the Leafs were one of the true clear cut "favorites" in their opening round matchup this year, with many teams sitting closer to the "pick em" range. However, just like the Pens and the Oilers, I absolutely expect this deep and talented Toronto side to bounce back here. Note that the Leafs are interestingly 10-3 in their last 13 when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game, while Columbus is only 2-6 in its last eight vs. the Eastern Conference. Look for the Leafs to respond in Game 2! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Toronto. |
|||||||
08-03-20 | Capitals v. Lightning -125 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Lightning (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Lightning play with "triple revenge" here after losing all three games to the Capitals in the regular season. The last time these teams met in the playoffs, the Caps won 4-3 in the Eastern Conference Finals en route to their Stanley Cup win in 2018. Both teams have a plethora of talent at every position, this one comes down to the pure "revenge factor" for me and that's what I'm rolling with. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Bolts. |
|||||||
08-02-20 | Wild v. Canucks -116 | Top | 3-0 | Loss | -116 | 174 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks It's the youth and skill of Vancouver vs. the experience of Minnesota in this first round matchup. The Wild took two of three from the Canucks in the regular season. The Wild were injured for most of the year and they endured a tough start to the campaign, but the long lay off has given the team time to heal. Despite that though, I don't think that Minnesota will be able to keep pace with the high-flying and much "hungrier" Canucks in my opinion. Elias Petterson leads a young group of Canucks, who actually finished top 5 on the power play. This is the first time in the playoffs for Petterson and for most of the young guns that he leads and that just adds fuel to the fire. I think these goaltenders are a "wash," but I'll give a major advantage to Vancouver's talent level over its first two lines. Look for that to be the difference maker (in Game 1 anyways!). T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Canucks. |
|||||||
03-10-20 | Bruins -110 v. Flyers | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 12 h 12 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins (10* REVENGE BEST OF THE BEST). The Bruins had won four in a row before a loss at home to the Lightning last time out. Boston still leads the East, but it's out for revenge here as it's lost two straight to Philly this year, both in the shootout. They say "all good things have to come to an end at some point," and after winning nine straight, I think the Flyers do indeed stumble here. It wouldn't be too difficult to write a convincing argument for either team, but the value on Boston is just too great here in my opinion, as I believe that it is a great overall situational play on the "better team." T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Boston. |
|||||||
03-09-20 | Coyotes v. Jets -120 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 25 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg Jets (10* BEST OF THE BEST). The Jets are 6-3-1 in their last ten and they're 19-13-3 at home this year. The Coyotes are 5-5 in their last ten and they're 16-16-4 on the road. After four straight wins though, I think the Coyotes finally take a step back here (note that they average just 2.36 GPG on the road.) The Jets have been tough at home this season, entering ranked ninth in the NHL in goals allowed per game in Winnipeg. The Jets are slo 4-0 in their last four as the favorite, while the 'Yotes are just 3-13 in their last 16 on the road. I'm banking on a blowout, great price here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jets. |
|||||||
03-06-20 | Golden Knights v. Jets +120 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 120 | 25 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). I like the home side to dig deep here and to get the job done once the final horn sounds. After going 9-1 in their last ten, I think the Knights do indeed finally stumble here in this difficult arena. The Jets are 5-4-1 in their last ten Las Vegas is ranked 17th in the league in goals scored per game while on the road, while ranked ninth in goals allowed. Winnipeg? It's ranked 25th in goals scored per game at home and 11th in goals allowed per game at home. Las Vegas though has been downright terrible in this spot for bettors all year, going 6-9 (-8.8 units) when playing with two days rest and 6-9 (-8.6 units) in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent. I think this one sets up beautifully for the home side. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jets. |
|||||||
03-05-20 | Wild v. Sharks +103 | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 25 h 55 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: San Jose Sharks (10* SLAP-SHOT). I'm expecting a slight upset in this one. The Wild have been all over the map as far as their game to game consistency is concerned and they've been consistently poor on the road this year but going 14-15-2 on the road. San Jose got off to a terrible start this year, a combination of injury and other off ice issues. The Sharks have looked better of late though and they come in with a still respectable 17-15-1 home record. Minnesota is also a TERRIBLE 6-12 (-4.6 units) this season after a win by two goals or more, while San Jose is 23-17 in its last 40 after a three-games unbeaten streak. Look for the surging home side to take advantage. Great value overall. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Sharks. |
|||||||
03-04-20 | Coyotes v. Canucks -118 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -118 | 16 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Arizona is 5-4-1 in its last ten, while Vancouver is 4-5-1 in its last ten. The Canucks though are the hungrier team in this fight in my professional opinion though, as they've lost three in a row. Arizona averages only 2.32 GPG on the road this year, while Vancouver is ranked second in the league in goals scored per game on home ice. Arizona ranks fifth in goals allowed per game on the road, but Vancouver ranks eighth in goals allowed per game at home. The Canucks are also still 12-3 in their last 15 at home while the Coyotes are interestingly just 1-4 in their last five vs. the Pacific. All things considered, I believe this is great value on the hungry home side. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. |
|||||||
03-01-20 | Flyers v. Rangers -107 | Top | 5-3 | Loss | -107 | 15 h 53 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rangers (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). This is the second game of a home and home set and the Flyers won the first one. Both teams have been hot of late and I think New York will return the favor here. Previous to the loss vs. the Flyers, the Rangers had won five straight. Philadelphia is poised for a letdown here after five straight wins and in this difficult road venue. Additionally take heed that Philly is just 10-12 (-2 units) in its last 22 after playing three straight at home, while New York is 11-6 (+7.7 units) already this season after a loss by two goals or more in its previous game. A great price here. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 New York. |
|||||||
02-27-20 | Capitals v. Jets +131 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 131 | 27 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg Jets (10* TRADE-MARK). I think this is a great spot to pull the trigger on the hungrier home side. Washington remains one of the top teams in the NHL and it comes in on a two-game win streak. It's difficult to poke too many holes in the Capitals, but I simply feel that they're in the wrong place at the wrong time in this one. Overall Washington sits 13th in the league in goals allowed per game while on the road. The Jets are also 8-3 (+5.6 units) in their last 11 after three or more consecutive losses. It's "gut check" time in Winnipeg. I'm grabbing the more motivated home in this one. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Jets. |

02-17-20 | Islanders +116 v. Coyotes | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 4 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: NYI Islanders have beaten Coyotes 3 straight times. Last time here in Phoenix, Isles won 3-1. Coyotes won last game but still 3-10 last 13. Isles 8-4 after scoring 1 goal or less in their previous game. Coyotes 3-8 when playing against a team with a winning record in the second half of the season. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Islanders |

02-15-20 | Capitals -129 v. Coyotes | 1-3 | Loss | -129 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: WASHINGTON Coyotes won at Washington earlier and that doesnt bode well for them today. Capitals are 8-3 when avenging home loss and 61-39 last 100 in revenge role. Coyotes 2-8 last 10 against winning teams. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Capitals |
|||||||
02-11-20 | Hurricanes v. Stars -120 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 22 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars Entering today's game, both teams are off wins. They both come in with nearly identical records as well. But, I believe that the home team will get the best of the battle tonight. Carolina is only 2-9 in their last 11 games played on the road against the Dallas Stars. For the Stars, they are a dominant 10-5 in their last 15 games against opponents from the Eastern Conference. They have also played excellent defense this season, as they are only allowing 2.56 goals per game. With the home crowd behind them, expect Dallas to get the job done here on Tuesday. Take the Stars. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Stars |

02-09-20 | Avalanche v. Wild +125 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -100 | 7 h 44 m | Show |

For the Avalanche, 2-4 SU in their last 6 games against Minnesota. Colorado is also a sad 2-5 in their last 7 games against opponents in the Central Division. At home, expect an easy win for Minnesota. Take the Wild. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Wild |

T.M. Selection: Toronto Maple Leafs The Toronto Maple Leafs may be off a loss, but they are by far the better team in this matchup. Toronto is 7-1 SU in their last 8 games on the road. They are also a dominant 8-3 in their last 11 games against opponents in the East Conference. On the other hand, the NY Rangers are a sad 2-4 in their last 6 games played in February. The Leafs may be on the road, but I expect them to dominate from start-to-finish in this one. Take Toronto. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Maple Leafs |
|||||||
02-01-20 | Blue Jackets -108 v. Sabres | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -108 | 15 h 43 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Columbus Blue Jackets The Columbus Blue Jackets may be on the road, and even though they have not scored too many goals this season, I expect them to shut the Sabres out here in this one. Coming in, CBJ is a perfect 6-0 in their last 7 games. They are also a dominant 5-1 in their last 6 games on the road. For Buffalo, they are a sad 1-7 SU in their last 8 games against opponents in the Metropolitan Division. The Sabres are also only 2-9 in their last 11 games against opponents in the East Conference. Take Columbus. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 CLB |
|||||||
01-30-20 | Predators -132 v. Devils | Top | 6-5 | Win | 100 | 6 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Nashville Predators As a road favorite, you know that Nashville is the better team. If the game was played in the state of Tennessee, the Predators would be huge favorites. Line was -255 in earlier game. Here's the deal though. Both these teams are actually better on the road than they are at home. Nashville is 11-14-4 at home but 12-12-3 on road. NJ is 7-16-7 at home but 11-15 on the road. So, throw home ice advantage out the window. What are we left with? The better team wins! T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Preds |

01-29-20 | Flames v. Oilers -118 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -118 | 12 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: EDMONTON You gotta love the Battle Of Alberta. Tonight the home team Oilers will have a score to settle. The Flames have taken both this season's games, one on December 27 and another on January 11. You know Edmonton doesnt want to lose again to its most hated rival. The Flames lost last night and they are 2-4 after playing the day before. Edmonton 2-1 with 3 or more day's rest. This time, the battle goes to the Oilers! T.M. PREDICTION 4-3 Oilers |
|||||||
01-27-20 | Capitals -121 v. Canadiens | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 1 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Washington Capitals No Ovechkin for the Capitals due to 1-game suspension for skipping All Star Game. But that doesn't mean Washington won't win. Capitals with best record in the NHL. Canadiens are 12th in the East. Capitals, 5-0 when playing with 3 or more day's rest, lost earlier home meeting but are 6-1 their last 7 visits here. They'll improve to 14-6 L20 revenge games after tonight. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Capitals |
|||||||
01-14-20 | Predators v. Oilers +106 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 106 | 22 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers Although Edmonton is the underdog in this one, I believe that they'll get the job done at home here today. Entering this game, Nashiville is only 5-6 after a game against a division opponent this season. They are also only 3-5 in their last 8 games. For the Oilers, they have looked sharp all season long. That Connor McDavid/Leon Draisaitl combo is money. Edmonton is 60% in January games this season. The Oilers are also 4-2 in their last 6 games. Expect an Edmonton victory on home ice tonight. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Oilers |
|||||||
01-11-20 | Stars v. Sharks +111 | Top | 1-2 | Win | 111 | 24 h 45 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Jose Sharks Off six straight wins, I believe that the Dallas Stars are due for a loss here on Saturday Night. Coming into this game, San Jose is 35-20 in games played on a Saturday the past three years. They are also 43-31 off a win by two or more goals. For the Stars, they are only 5-6 after 3 or more consecutive unders. They are also 0-1 this season after shutting out their opponent in their previous game. At home, expect a Sharks win. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Sharks |
|||||||
01-09-20 | Devils v. Rangers -164 | Top | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 9 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: NY Rangers Off a huge win, the NY Rangers are looking like a playoff team to could shock some people. Entering this game, New York is a dominant 7-1 in their last 8 games against opponents in the Metropolitan Division. They are also a ridiculous 6-1 in their last 7 games when playing at home against the Devils. For New Jersey, they have been struggling all season long and their record shows that. Off back-to-back losses New Jersey is only 6-12 SU in their last 18 games. The Devils are also 2-4 in their last 6 games against NY Rangers. With the Rangers looking confident and the Devils not on their best game, I expect to see a complete destruction on Thursday Night. Take New York. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Rangers |
|||||||
01-06-20 | Jets +137 v. Canadiens | Top | 3-2 | Win | 137 | 20 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnepeg Jets Although the Winnepeg Jets are the underdog in this game, I believe that they are by far the better side. The Jets have been struggling a little bit as of late, but, the Canadiens have been just as bad. In the past, Winnepeg is a dominant 60-34 when playing against a team with a losing record. They are also 48-34 after playing against a divisional opponent. On the other hand, Montreal is a terrible 0-5 SU in their last 5 games (1-6 L7.) Expect the Jets to dominate here on Monday, as the home crowd goes home crying. T.M. Prediction: 6-2 Jets |
|||||||
01-03-20 | Capitals +109 v. Hurricanes | Top | 4-3 | Win | 109 | 17 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Washington Capitals The Wshington Capitals come into today's game with a dominant 27-9-5 record. They have scored 3.5+ goals per game and they have looked very confident in every single game. Washington is 11-5 SU in their last 16 games. Even better, the Capitals are a wicked 16-5-1 on the road this year. On the other hand, Carolina has also had a pretty good start. Although having a good record, the Hurricanes are only 3-8 vs. opponents in the same division as them. On Friday, with the Capitals off back-to-back losses, expect them to bounce back in a huge a way. Take Washington an look for them to dominate from the opening face-off. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Capitals |

T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks Off 5 straight victories, the Vancouver Canucks are starting to make a name for themselves. They are a perfect 3-0 off three or more days of rest this season. The Canucks have also scored a lot of points. They have an excellent 3.30 average of goals per game. On the other hand, the Blackhawks are only 2-6 SU in their last 8 games against Vancouver. They are also 9-15 when playing against a team with a winning record this season. Expect an easy win for the Canucks on Thursday Night. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks |

T.M. Selection: Anaheim Ducks Anaheim comes into this game having won their previous game 4-3 against the Golden Knights. The Ducks are a huge 52-31 in home games, when the total is 5.5. On the other hand, the Flyers just played a game last night against the Sharks. They are 5-9 in non-conference games this season.pect Philadelphia to be tired from last night for this big game. Take the Ducks. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Ducks |

12-28-19 | Avalanche v. Stars -133 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 21 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars Colorado comes into this game with the second best record in the Pacific Divison. Although having a good record, the Avalanche are only 13-27 in a road game when the total is 5.5 the past three years (1-2 this season.) On the other hand, the Stars also have a strong record (20-14-4.) Dallas enters this game with a nice 6-3 record this season in games played on a Saturday (30-19 L3 years.) The Stars are also 7-2 the past three years when they are off 3 or more consecutive games where the total has gone OVER. The Avs just played yesterday, so I expect them to be tired and lazy at the start of this one. Take the Stars. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Stars |

T.M. Selection: VEGAS Both teams have started off this season with a boom. They are well over .500 and they'll both look to stay that way. Although having such a good record, Colorado has lost their last 2 games and are only 1-3 in their past four. VEGAS is 3-1 in their last 4 games. Expect the Golden Knight to take this one with ease. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 VEGAS |
|||||||
12-20-19 | Stars v. Panthers -121 | Top | 4-7 | Win | 100 | 20 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Florida Panthers Off a back to back in a highly competetive game that went past 3 periods, I like the Panthers here. Florida is going to come in extremely confident as they are off a huge 6-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Monday. On the other hand, the Dallas Stars are only 2-2 in their last 4 games. Yesterday's game went to OT, and I believe that the amount of travel in the night will not treat them well. Expect the Panthers to take advantage of a sleepy Stars team on Friday. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Panthers |
|||||||
12-17-19 | Hurricanes v. Jets +106 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -100 | 21 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg Jets Both of these two teams come in with identical records. Winnipeg enters this one 5-0 SU in their last 5 games at home. They are also 10-4 SU in their last 14 games. On the other hand, Carolina hasn't done well against the Jets. They are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games when playing on the road as well as 1-5 SU in their last 6 games against the Winnipeg Jets. Expect an easy Jets win on Tuesday. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Jets |

T.M. Selection: LA Kings Neither team has had a great start to the season, but the Red Wings have bee absolutely awful. Coming into this game, Detroit is 2-12 SU in their last 14 games. They also have a terrible 1-6 SU record in their last 7 games at home. Now, they'll go up against a Kings team who have won back-to-back games with ease. Los Angeles is also 4-1 SU in their last 5 games against Detroit. Expect the Kings to destroy them right from the start here. T.M. Prediction: 3-0 Kings |

12-12-19 | Rangers v. Sharks -151 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -151 | 24 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Jose Sharks The NY Rangers come into this game with an awful 1-11 SU record in their last 12 games against opponents in the Pacific Division. The Rangers are also only 5-13 SU in their last 18 games against opponents from the Western Conference. On the other hand, San Jose is 7-3 SU in their L10 games at home. Off 5 straight losses, the Sharks will be hungry, looking to turn it around with their home crowd behind them. Take San Jose. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Sharks |

12-03-19 | Stars v. Jets +100 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 20 h 30 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Winnipeg Jets Both teams have had nearly identical starts to this season. Both decent. Winnipeg comes in to this matchup 7-1 in their L8 games when playing at home against Dallas. They are also 6-2 in their L8 games this season. On the other hand, the Stars have gone 4-10 in their last 14 games against Winnipeg. They have also lost their last three games. With the Stars coming in with their haeds down, and the Jets coming in confident, I like the Jets on Tuesday Night. Expect an easy winner. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Jets |
|||||||
11-26-19 | Wild v. Devils -132 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -132 | 8 h 28 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: New Jersey Devils Both teams have losing records coming into this game. Although having a rough start, the Devils won their last game 5-1 and showed lots of promise. In previous matches between these teams, New Jersey is 8-3-1 SU in their L12 games when playing at home (vs. the Wild.) Minnesota, on the other hand, is only 2-11-2 as an underdog this season. The Wild are also only 4-10-1 on the road ytd. I like the Devils to win this one, and to make a march up the standings in the time coming. Take New Jersey and expect an easy winner. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Devils |
|||||||
11-25-19 | Islanders -117 v. Ducks | Top | 0-3 | Loss | -117 | 26 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: New York Islanders The red hot Islanders will travel to Anaheim, where they'll take on the not so good Ducks on Monday Night. NY comes in with a ridiculous 16-3-2 record while the Ducks only have a 10-11-3 record. Coming into this game, Anaheim is 1-8 SU in their L9 games. They are also 0-5 SU in their L5 games at home. I expect the Islanders to destroy this weak team. Take New York. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders |
|||||||
11-14-19 | Hurricanes v. Sabres +122 | Top | 5-4 | Loss | -100 | 8 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Buffalo Sabres We will see a determined Sabre unit tonight. This is a team that badly wants to break a losing skid. Buffalo plays with some extra rest and in front of its home crowd. Buffalo = 5-3 at home. Carolina = 3-5 away from home. I wont consider it an upset when Buffalo takes it. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Sabres |
|||||||
11-13-19 | Maple Leafs +107 v. Islanders | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -100 | 19 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toronto Maple Leafs John Tavares, the Toronto captain, will once again play against his old team who has dominated ever since trading him. The Islanders have started 12-3-1, but they are just 30-33 when playing a home game, and when the total is 6 or more. I expect John Tavares to step up against his old team, and lead the way to victory on Wednesday Night. Take Toronto. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Maple Leafs |
|||||||
11-08-19 | Devils v. Oilers -155 | Top | 0-4 | Win | 100 | 22 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Edmonton Oilers One of the best teams on the league will play one of the worst on Friday Night. The Oilers have had the start that many would have liked to have, as they're sitting at the top of the Pacific Division with ease. On the other hand, the Devils keep losing and their confidence level is continuing to drop like a rock. Earlier this season, Edmonton stole the show at New Jersey, where they won 4-3. Expect them to do it again, at home this time. Take the Oilers. T.M. Prediction: 4-1 Oilers |
|||||||
10-20-19 | Canadiens v. Wild -108 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 7 h 51 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Minnesota Wild Great spot for the home team. Wild are rested. Montreal off upset win over Tampa yesterday. Why does that matter? Because Canadiens are 9-20 in back-to-back situations the last 3 years. A loss at Detroit is included from this season. Teams meet again at Montreal in a few days but Canadiens will face Blues in between. Wild will take advantage of the scheduling gift and I will too. T.M. Prediction: 5-2 Wild |
|||||||
10-14-19 | Wild v. Senators +120 | Top | 2-0 | Loss | -100 | 2 h 13 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ottawa Senators Both of these two teams enter today's action with a losing record. Although you may think Ottawa has been pretty bad, look at the Wild. Minnesota comes into this one winless with 21 goals against in their first four games. That's awful. Also, the Wild are a terrible 0-5 SU in their last 5 games on the road. Expect the Ottawa Senators to come out with confidence on Canadian Thanksgiving. Take Ottawa. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Sens |
|||||||
10-08-19 | Hurricanes v. Panthers -119 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -119 | 9 h 35 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Florida Panthers Florida will welcome the Hurricanes to their house in their first meeting of the year. Although Carolina is undefeated, they've won every single game in OT. In the past, the Hurricanes are an awful 13-24 on Tuesday Nights. The home team comes in with a 1-1 record. They just beat the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday and they'll be looking to bring that same mentallity tonight. Florida is now 35-23 in a home game where the total is 6 or more. Expect the Panthers to win on home ice tonight. Play Florida. T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Panthers. |
|||||||
10-07-19 | Blues +115 v. Maple Leafs | Top | 3-2 | Win | 115 | 9 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: St. Louis Blues The season is fully underway, and teams have mostly gotten settled into the new campaign. Entering today's action, the Stanley Cup Champs are off a big win against the Dallas Stars. In two games, the Blues have scored 5 goals. In the past, STL is 45-27 in non-conference games. Toronto, is off a heart-breaking loss in a shootout to the Montreal Canadiens in a game where they would have like to get back. They led that game 4-1 five minutes into the 3rd period. Expect that tough loss to still be in their heads as they face the defending champs. Take St. Louis. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Blues |
|||||||
05-27-19 | Blues +145 v. Bruins | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 130 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: St. Louis Blues (10* GAME OF WEEK) The Blues have surprised everyone to this point and I believe that trend continues here. The Bruins have struggled against tough defensive teams and I think they’ll have their hands full with St. Louis goaltender Jordan Binnington. Note that Boston is just 1-6 in its last seven as well when playing on three or more days rest, while the Blues are 24-11 in their last 35 vs. teams with winning records. Boston’s been off since May 16th and rest leads to rust. Look for a decisive St. Louis win here in Game 1. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Blues. |
|||||||
05-19-19 | Blues +115 v. Sharks | Top | 5-0 | Win | 115 | 29 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: St. Louis Blues (10* BANKROLL BUILDER) The Blue have taken back control of this series in my opinion after their 2-1 Game 4 victory. St. Louis is 27-22 on the road, averaging 2.80 goals and allowing just 2.45. Goaltender Jordan Binnington went 10-4 with a 1.72 GAA on the road. The Sharks are better at home than on the road, now 32-19 there with averaging 3.67 GPG and allowing 2.86. Martin Jones is 22-12 with a 2.78 GAA at home, but I think his rookie counterpart steals the show here again on the road. I like Binnington and the Blues’ sting defense to win the day. Play on St. Louis. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Blues. |
|||||||
05-16-19 | Bruins v. Hurricanes +105 | Top | 4-0 | Loss | -100 | 26 h 11 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes (10* BANKROLL BUILDER) I thought Boston was the better team before this series started, but I didn’t think the B’s would sweep the Hurricanes and I don’t think that’ll be the case tonight either. With their backs against the wall, I Carolina digs deep and delays the inevitable for at least one more game. The numbers support our theory as well, as note that Boston is just 6-12 in its last 18 road games vs. a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600, while Carolina is 5-1 in its last six when playing on one days rest. Game 3’s loss was Carolina’s first home loss in the playoffs to this point. Boston has been a mediocre team at best on the road this season and I think that it packs up its tents early and prepares for Game 5 on home ice. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Hurricanes. |
|||||||
05-12-19 | Hurricanes +138 v. Bruins | Top | 2-6 | Loss | -100 | 51 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes (10* BANKROLL BUILDER) Game 1 was tight until midway through the third period. Carolina hasn’t shown any quit in the playoffs so far though and I think the visitors offer great value to bounce back and steal Game 2. Note that the five goals the Hurricanes gave up in Game 1 equals the total amount of goals they gave up to the Islanders in their four game sweep of that series. Note that Carolina did actually have a 2-1 lead heading into the third period, before then falling apart as I mentioned above. Boston exploded in the third period, but it’s inconsistency comes back to haunt it in Game 2 is my prediction. Additionally note that Carolina is already 3-1 (+2 units) when trailing in a playoff series, while Boston is just 3-6 (-4.6 units) in its last nine when leading in a playoff series. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Hurricanes. |
|||||||
05-11-19 | Blues +118 v. Sharks | Top | 3-6 | Loss | -100 | 58 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: St. Louis Blues (10* MONEY-MAKER) Both teams advanced after going seven games in their previous round. While San Jose took two of three between the clubs in the regular season, I think the stingy visiting side offers great value to pull off the upset in Game. St. Louis’ goaltender Jordan Binnington has been unstoppable, he enters 8-5 with a 2.39 GAA. Note that he’s 10-4 with a 1.72 GAA on the road. San Jose goaltender Martin Jones is 8-5 with a 2.72 GAA in the playoffs and he went 22-12 with a 2.78 GAA at home. Note as well that St. Louis is 7-3 (+2.5 units) this year when playing with three or more days rest, while San Jose is just 10-11 (-7.9 units) in its last 21 in the same position. I like Binnington and the Blues’ suffocating defense to slow down the Sharks. In Game 1 anyways. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Blues. |
|||||||
05-09-19 | Hurricanes +135 v. Bruins | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 32 h 47 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Carolina Hurricanes (10* GAME OF MONTH) Carolina has surprised everyone and I think it has a very real shot of surprising the Bruins here as well in Game 1. After a gruelling seven game series win over the Leafs, Boston needed six games to get by a tough Columbus team. Carolina got the better of Washington in seven games in Round 1, but then it took care of the Islanders in four games in Round 2, meaning that it enters very well rested at the most opportune of times. I believe fatigue does finally catch up to the Bruins here, who looked less than spectacular on home ice in their win over Toronto. Great value on this under-rated underdog. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Hurricanes. |
|||||||
05-03-19 | Stars +130 v. Blues | Top | 2-1 | Win | 130 | 36 h 44 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars (10* TRADE-MARK) This has been a back and forth series between two pretty evenly matched clubs. Clearly with a line like this the oddsmakers would agree. Dallas though has the more experienced goaltender in Ben Bishop and as the series and playoffs go on, I think that matter vs. the Blues’ Jordan Binnington, who has pretty much carried his team to this point of the season. Dallas features the better and deeper offense and once again, as this series continues, that’s going to matter. I believe Bishop and the Stars offer great value to pull off the upset here. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Dallas. |
|||||||
05-01-19 | Islanders +111 v. Hurricanes | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 33 h 31 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: New York Islanders (10* TRADE-MARK) I’m shocked that Carolina has a 2-0 lead in this series. I’m fully expecting the Islanders to respond here. Carolina somehow knocked off the Capitals in seven games in its opening round series, including a double overtime win in Game 7. Can anyone say letdown spot here? It’s now do or die for the Islanders, who were solid on the road all year. I think Robin Lehner returns to form in net for the Isles as well (note that NY was 26-17 on the road, averaging 2.67 goals and conceding 2.33 in those contests.) New York is 13-7 (+7.1 units) after scoring one goal or less in its previous game, while Carolina is 6-7 (-2.6 units) following a three game unbeaten streak. I look for the “hungrier” team to deliver the goods tonight. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Isles. |
|||||||
04-29-19 | Blues v. Stars -113 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -113 | 33 h 48 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Dallas Stars (10* GAME OF WEEK) The Blues managed a 3-2 win in Game 1 despite getting outshot, but the Stars’ superior offense and equal goaltending and defense proved to be too much in their 4-2 Game 2 victory. I’m expecting a lower-scoring dominant victory for Dallas at home though. St. Louis was 0 for 5 on the power play in Game 2 and rookie goaltender Jordan Binnington allowed three goals on 34 shots. Ben Bishop made 32 saves in Game 2 for Dallas. Note as well that the Stars are 7-2 in their last nine home games vs. a team with an above .500 road record. Great value play. T.M. Prediction: 3-1 Dallas. |
|||||||
04-28-19 | Avalanche +120 v. Sharks | 4-3 | Win | 120 | 35 h 47 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Colorado Avalanche (8* MONEY-MAKER) The Avs jumped out to a 1-0 lead over the Sharks in Game 1, but then San Jose eventually pulled away for the 5-2 victory. The Sharks had their hands full in the first round, while Colorado was easily able to dispatch the Flames. San Jose struggled with consistency vs. the Knights and I think that trend continues here. Colorado is also 4-1 in its last five after a loss by two goals or more, while San Jose is just 2-5 in its last seven home games following a win by three or more goals in its previous outing. These teams are clearly very evenly matched, as evidenced by this line, however I expect the “hungrier” team to get the job done at the end of the night. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Avs. |
|||||||
04-27-19 | Blue Jackets +125 v. Bruins | Top | 3-2 | Win | 125 | 32 h 7 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Columbus Blue Jackets (10* TRADE-MARK) I had a play on Columbus in Game 1. Boston jumped out to an early lead, but Columbus scored two goals late and looked as if it would pull off the upset, but the Bruins managed a late goal in regulation and then they’d go on to win in extra time. After going needing seven games to take care of the Leafs, Boston’s energy was frankly shocking to me. I thought Columbus would benefit greatly from a few extra days off, but it in fact had the opposite effect, leading to rust it would take the Blue Jackets until the third period to really “wake up.” Boston though looks primed for a letdown here in my opinion. Columbus though has shaken off the rust and offers great value in the underdog role. I’m banking on the “fresher” team securing the split. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Blue Jackets. |
|||||||
04-26-19 | Avalanche +125 v. Sharks | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 38 h 43 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Colorado Avalanche (10* MONEY-MAKER). With a line like this, clearly the oddsmakers think these teams are pretty evenly matched. If this year’s playoffs (both the NHL and in the NBA) have shown us, parity is pretty rampant at the moment. The Avs looked great in extinguishing the Flames in five games and they come in rested and focused on the task at hand. They also play with triple revenge after losing all three regular season games vs. the Sharks. San Jose is likely the “better” team, but it’s “dog tired” after its epic come from behind series win over Las Vegas. This one has “upset” written all over it. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Avs. |
|||||||
04-25-19 | Blue Jackets +137 v. Bruins | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 33 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (10* MA$$ACRE) For very obvious reasons, I like Columbus to “steal” Game 1. The Blue Jackets steam rolled the Tampa Bay Lightning in four games and have been resting and preparing for this series. The Bruins were pushed to the brink and needed a Game 7 to take care of Toronto. Boston is tired and banged up, while Columbus is full of energy and healthy. Both teams feature great goaltending, plenty of scoring depth and experience. The difference for me is the extra time for Columbus. The series sweep over TB can’t be taken lightly either. “Momentum” is a very real, almost tangible factor in sports and especially in the playoffs. But the fact of the matter is, Columbus has been playing fantastic hockey for well over a month now. Expect the visitors to make the most of this one. T.M. Prediction: 3-2 Jackets. |
|||||||
04-24-19 | Hurricanes +127 v. Capitals | Top | 4-3 | Win | 127 | 34 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* MONEY-MAKER) I think the Capitals run ends here. Trends were made to be broken and I look for the Hurricanes to indeed by the first team to break through and win on the road in this series. Carolina averages 2.8 GPG and it allows 2.8 as well. The Capitals have averaged 2.8 GPG in the playoffs as well, as well as allowing 2.8. These teams are evenly matched. The Hurricanes have the Capitals on the ropes, pushing them to the brink and I like the underdog to come through here. Note as well that Carolina is 21-11 (+6.2 units) this year after a win by two goals or more, while Washington is just 2-5 in its last seven home games following a road loss of three goals or more. I’m calling for the upset! T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Hurricanes. |
|||||||
04-19-19 | Avalanche +155 v. Flames | Top | 5-1 | Win | 155 | 35 h 25 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Colorado Avalanche (10* TRADE-MARK) The Flames are completely getting avalanched by the Avalanche in this series and with a chance to end it here and now, I think the surging visiting offers great value in the upset role. Colorado has 173 shots on net in this series so far, including 108 in its two wins at home. The Avs have also given up just five goals over 12-plus periods of action. The Flames have been getting spectacular goaltending from Mike Smith, but one has to wonder how much gas the veteran has left in the tank after getting so many shots directed on him at this point? This one has upset written all over it. The Flames have lost 11 of their last 13 playoff games overall and they’ve never overcome a 3-1 series deficit in franchise history. I think that the writing is on the wall. T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Avs. |
|||||||
04-18-19 | Golden Knights +108 v. Sharks | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 34 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Golden Knights (10* BLACK-LABEL BLOWOUT) I think the Sharks are done. San Jose backed its way into the playoffs, but it took Game 1 by a score of 4-0. Since then though the Knights have outscored the Sharks 16-6. Las Vegas veteran Marc Andre Fleury is now 3-1-0 and he comes in with a ton of confidence after posting the shutout. San Jose had been sliding for many weeks previous to this, while Las Vegas had been surging to end the regular season. These trends have clearly carried over into the playoffs. Look for the visitors lay it all on the line as they close out the Sharks in the playoffs for a second straight year. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Knights. |
