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.

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.

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.

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 | |||||||
04-17-23 | Panthers v. Bruins -1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 128 | 9 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on BOS. 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.

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 | |

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.

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. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
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 | |||||||
11-17-22 | Coyotes v. Golden Knights -1.5 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Vegas. The Golden Knights have lost back to back games at home, after they had won nine straight. They host an Arizona team that is at the end of a road trip, and the Coyotes have lost back to back games by a combined five goal margin. The Coyotes are 3-10 in the last 13 meetings, and they have lost seven straight at Vegas. This looks like a great spot for the Knights to get back on track. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-16-22 | Kings v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | 3-1 | Loss | -125 | 21 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Oilers are the most gifted offensive team in the NHL, and it's no surprise that they have one of the best power play units. Special teams could play a big role here, as the Kings come in with an above average power play and a below average penalty kill. The over is 10-4-2 in the Kings last 16 overall, and they have gone over in eight of their last nine road games. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-14-22 | Blues v. Avalanche OVER 6.5 | 3-2 | Loss | -110 | 17 h 36 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Over. The Colorado Avalanche host St. Louis on Monday, and this game looks like an interesting matchup. The Avs #1 ranked power play (39%) matches up against the Blues #31 ranked penalty killing unit. The Blues also have an above average power play, and the Avs have a below average penalty killing unit. The over is 19-9-1 in the Blues last 29 games following a win, and the over is 9-3 in their last 12 versus Colorado. This games should be quite the battle of special teams. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-12-22 | Jets v. Flames -140 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 19 h 30 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on CAL. After winning five of their first six games, the Flames have lost seven straight. They should be playing desperate hockey here tonight at home versus Winnipeg. The Jets are 3-7 in their last 10 road games, and they are in a bit of a let down spot coming off three straight home wins. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-12-22 | Canucks v. Maple Leafs OVER 6.5 | 2-3 | Loss | -120 | 15 h 29 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Leafs have given up eight goals in back to back home losses, and they face Vancouver on Hockey Night in Canada (the Canadian equivalent of MNF) on Saturday night. Vancouver is coming off a 5-2 loss at Montreal. The Canucks have one of the league's best power plays, and one of the worst penalty killing units. This often leads to high scoring games. The over is 34-15-2 in the Canucks last 51 overall, and they have gone over in six straight on the road. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-12-22 | Coyotes +1.5 v. Devils | 2-4 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 21 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Arizona +1.5. The Coyotes come into this game as winners of four of their last five, and they are riding a hot goaltender. Karel Vejmelka is coming off a 24 save shutout win over the Islanders. Arizona has lost three of their last five at New Jersey, but they are 4-1 ATS in those games. The Devils are 11-3 straight up, but they are just 5-8 ATS in those games. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-11-22 | Wild v. Seattle Kraken OVER 6 | 1-0 | Loss | -125 | 21 h 27 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Kraken bring a five game winning streak into tonight's home game against Minnesota. Seattle has one of the league's best power play units, and they are scoring over 3.5 goals per game. The Wild will look to avenge a 4-0 home loss to Seattle last week. We should see more scoring here tonight. The over is 17-8 in the Wild last 25 in the third game of a 3-in-4 days situation. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-10-22 | Predators v. Avalanche OVER 6.5 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 17 h 4 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Predators pulled starting goaltender Juuse Saros in a 5-1 loss at Seattle a few days ago. Saros is 3-6-1 with a 3.46 GAA this season. The Preds are in Colorado to face the defending champs, and their league best power play. Colorado is converting on an incredible 38 percent of their power play chances. Their penalty killing unit though has struggled, giving up a goal on over 30 percent of their opponent's chances. Of course the result is often a high score. These teams have gone over in seven of the last eight head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-05-22 | Predators v. Canucks OVER 6.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Canucks have won three of their last four, and they are scoring plenty of goals. They are coming off an 8-5 win over the Ducks, and we should expect another barn burner here against Nashville. These teams have gone over in five of the last six in Vancouver, and the over is 10-3 in the last 13 head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-03-22 | Predators v. Flames -180 | 4-1 | Loss | -180 | 19 h 44 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Flames. Calgary is coming off back to back losses, but a home game against Nashville looks like a good spot to get back on track. The Predators have lost seven of their last eight overall, and they have lost seven in a row when playing on 1 days rest. The Flames are 29-14 in their last 43 home games, and they have won six straight versus teams with a winning percentage of .400 or worse. The Predators are 0-6 in their last six games following a loss of 3 or more goals. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
11-01-22 | Seattle Kraken v. Flames OVER 6 | 5-4 | Win | 100 | 18 h 24 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Flames are coming off a loss to Edmonton in the Battle of Alberta, but they draw a favorable matchup with a home game against Seattle tonight. Both these teams have top ranked power play units, but the Kraken are pathetic on the penalty kill (66%). Seattle is coming off a home win over Pittsburgh, and the over is 5-0 in their last five games coming off a win. The Flames have gone over in four of their last five home games. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-29-22 | Oilers v. Flames OVER 6.5 | 3-2 | Loss | -125 | 19 h 47 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on Over. The Battle of Alberta is one of the NHL's best rivalries, and historically these games have been high scoring. The over is 6-1 in the last seven meetings, and 8-2 in the last 10. These two teams are each ranked in the Top 5 in the NHL in power play percentage, both scoring on over 30 percent of their opportunities with the man advantage. The over is 20-8-1 in the last 29 meetings in Calgary. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-28-22 | Penguins -150 v. Canucks | 1-5 | Loss | -150 | 17 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on PIT. The Canucks got their first win of the season last night in Seattle, but put the Stanley Cup Parade on hold. They still rank near the bottom of the league in goals against, and they are brutal on special teams. They face a Penguins team Friday that boasts a Top 10 power play unit, and ranks 1st in the league in scoring averaging 4.29 goals per game. The Penguins lost back to back road games in Calgary and Edmonton, but have had a few days off to get ready for the Canucks. Vancouver is playing the second game of a back to back, and they are 13-43 in their last 56 games playing on 0 days rest. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-18-22 | Kings v. Predators -147 | 4-3 | Loss | -147 | 19 h 49 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on NASH. This looks like a potential let down spot for the LA Kings, coming off an overtime win over Detroit last night. You would think the Kings would turn to their backup netminder here in the second game of a back to back. Cal Peterson allowed six goals on 35 shots against Minnesota in his only start this season. The Kings have lost eight of their last 10 versus Nashville, and four straight at Bridgestone Arena. The Predators are 24-9 in their last 33 games playing on 2 days rest. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||

10-17-22 | Penguins -1.5 v. Canadiens | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 24 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on the Penguins. Sidney Crosby has taken a back seat to the likes of Connor McDavid, Auston Matthews and Nathan McKinnon in recent seasons. At the age of 35, he may still be one of the best in the game. He comes into Montreal leading the NHL in scoring after playing just two games. This is always a big game for Crosby and teammate Kris Letang who was born in Montreal. Crosby has scored 21 goals and has 37 assists in 43 career games versus Montreal in his career. These two teams are trending in opposite directions, the Habs rebuilding while the Pens appear to be a contender. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-15-22 | Golden Knights v. Seattle Kraken OVER 6 | 5-2 | Win | 100 | 21 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 4* play on Over. The Seattle Kraken are off to a decent (1-1) start to their second season in the NHL. That said they did blow a 4-2 lead in the 3rd period in their season opener, losing 5-4 to Anaheim in overtime. They have been a good bet to the over since joining the league, and we can expect a high score here as they host the VGK. The over is 8-3 in the Golden Knights last 11 versus the Western Conference, and these two teams have gone over in three of four all time meetings. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-13-22 | Blackhawks v. Golden Knights -1.5 | 0-1 | Loss | -128 | 14 h 23 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on VGK. The Knights peppered Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick with 51 shots in their season opener, winning by a score of 4-3. They are back home hosting the Chicago Blackhawks tonight, and Chicago is coming off a 5-2 loss in Denver. The Blackhawks are 10-42 in their last 52 versus a team with a winning record. They have lost five of their last six versus the Golden Knights, and they are projected to be one of the worst teams in the league again this season. That means that they may be tanking for a first round draft pick. The Blackhawks are 4-13 in the last 17 meetings. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
10-12-22 | Maple Leafs -1.5 v. Canadiens | 3-4 | Loss | -105 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
This is a 2* play on TOR. These two teams are trending in opposite directions. The Habs are expected to be tanking for the top pick in the draft, while the Leafs are looking to prove that they are a contender. Toronto was expected to make a deep playoff run with one of the highest paid rosters in the NHL last season, but were bounced in the first round of the playoffs once again. They bring back almost everybody from a team that ranked 2nd in the league in scoring. Auston Matthews scored 60 goals, leading the league in scoring. They have the firepower to take advantage of an inferior opponent in their season opener. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-26-22 | Avalanche v. Lightning +105 | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 22 h 59 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on TB. Darcy Keumper bounced back from a poor performance in Game 3 in Tampa with a solid Game 4. He wasn't terrible in a Game 5 loss in Colorado, but in a game decided by one goal he let in a bad one. Andrei Vasilevskij allowed two goals on 37 shots in Game 5, and he's really in the zone right now. The Lightning have the momentum, they have home ice in Game 6, and they have the better goalie. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-24-22 | Lightning v. Avalanche -164 | 3-2 | Loss | -164 | 44 h 38 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on Colorado. The Lightning had Colorado on the ropes, taking a 2-1 lead to the third period of Game 4 and coming so close to tying the series and taking all the momentum. Instead they lost a heart breaker in overtime, and it's really tough to see them coming back from that. Darcy Keumper bounced back by stopping 37 of 39 shots in Game 4. While injuries are piling up for the Lightning, the Avs are getting healthier. It was Nazem Kadri who scored the game winner in Game 4, in his first game back after being sidelined since Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals. The Cup will be in the building tonight, and the last time Tampa played in Denver they lost by a touchdown. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||

06-20-22 | Avalanche v. Lightning -106 | Top | 2-6 | Win | 100 | 9 h 40 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on TB. The two time defending champions are on the ropes, but with the series back in Tampa and the Lightning coming off a 7-0 loss in Game 2, we should expect some push back. Keep in mind that Tampa was down 0-2 to the Rangers in the East Finals, and went on to win four straight. Andrei Vasilevskij allowed just three goals in the final three games of that series. The Lightning are 8-3 in their last 11 Stanley Cup Finals games, and they are 40-15 in their last 55 home games. Colorado is due to suffer a let down in Game 3. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-18-22 | Lightning +1.5 v. Avalanche | 0-7 | Loss | -190 | 10 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on TB +1.5. After winning four straight versus the Rangers in the East Final, it was no surprise to see the Lightning suffer a let down in the first period of Game 1. Anrei Vailevskij was lit up for three goals in the first period, but then held the Avs scoreless for the remainder of regulation. Tampa showed plenty of character battling back to tie the game, and we should expect this series to be quite competitive moving forward. The Lightning have won five of their last seven at Colorado, and they are 13-4 in their last 17 playoff games as an underdog. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-15-22 | Lightning v. Avalanche OVER 6 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 74 h 32 m | Show |
This is a 10* play on Over. Andrei Vasilevskij has been dominant in these playoffs, but he's shown some rust when coming off a layoff. He allowed five goals on 32 shots in Game 1 versus the Leafs in the first round, and in the Eastern Conference Finals he was torched for six goals on 34 shots in Game 1 in New York. Pavel Francouz allowed five goals on 35 shots in Game 4 versus the Oilers, and it's unclear if the Avs will go back to Darcy Keumper now that he's healthy. The Avs come in averaging 4.64 goals per game in the playoffs, while allowing 2.86 goals per game. The over is 7-2-3 in Colorado's last 12 games playing on 3 or more days rest. I expect both teams to light the lamp early and often in Game 1. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-11-22 | Rangers v. Lightning UNDER 5.5 | 1-2 | Win | 100 | 19 h 5 m | Show | |
This is a 5* play on the Under (1P). The goaltending in this series has been phenomenal, and we expect that to continue here in Game 6. We all know how important a Game 5 is in a playoff series. Historically, the team that wins Game 5 will have better than a 79 percent chance to win the series. With such high stakes, don't expect a lot of high quality chances early here. Tampa was up 1-0 after the first period in Game 4, after a scoreless first in Game 3. The under is 8-1 in Lightning last nine overall, and the under is 11-3-1 in the Rangers last 15 playoff games as an underdog. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||

06-07-22 | Rangers v. Lightning -170 | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 23 h 19 m | Show | |
This is an 8* play on Tampa. The Lightning are back in the series after scoring in the final minute to steal Game 3 on home ice. They head into Game 4 with all the momentum, and I expect to see this series even at 2-2 heading back to New York. The Rangers are now 1-6 in their last seven road games as an underdog, and the home team has won four of the last five meetings. While Game 3 was close on the scoreboard, the Lightning out-shot the Rangers 52-30. Igor Shesterkin stood on his head, but the Rangers can't continue to count on their netminder to win games by himself. The lightning have their own world class goaltender, and Vasilevskij was 20-8 with a 2.23 GAA at home this season. GL, Jesse Schule | |||||||
06-05-22 | Rangers v. Lightning -170 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 20 h 35 m | Show | |
This is a 6* play on TB. The Eastern Conference Finals might be the polar opposite of the West Finals, which produced 14 goals in Game 1. The Rangers netminder Igor Shesterkin was the best in the NHL in the regular season, while nobody has been better than Andrei Vaselevskiy in the post-season. The Lightning are 37-15 in their last 52 games as a home favorite, and the home team is 9-1 in the last 10 head to head meetings. GL, Jesse Schule |
