04-17-21 | Capitals v. Flyers UNDER 6.5 | Top | 6-3 | Loss | -117 | 4 h 42 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals/Flyers UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Washington is one of the best teams in the league, but it comes in off a poor 5-2 loss to the lowly Sabres. Washington concedes 2.95 GPG. Note that they've seen the total go under in eight of their last 11 after a three goals or greater loss in which they allowed five or more goals in. Philadelphia's been wildely inconsistent on both ends of the ice as well, but it does come in off a quality 2-1 shootout win at Pittsburgh. Over its last two games its managed just two goals in regulation though. When you add it all up, this one has under written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Washington. | |||||||
04-16-21 | Flames v. Canadiens OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Habs OVER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). Calgary beat Montreal here two nights ago by a score of 4-1. Clearly, the Canadiens, who have now lost three of their last four, are going to be desperate here and can't afford to sit back and hope for the Flames to make the first mistake. Pushing the pace though opens you up on the backend, which these opportunistic Flames will be looking to take advantage of. The bottom line is, both teams need to string together wins if they have any hopes at all in making the playoffs. Also note that Montreal has seen the total go over in seven of its last ten home games in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it was held to one or less goals in; the play is the OVER. T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Canadiens. | |||||||
04-15-21 | Blue Jackets v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | Top | 1-4 | Win | 100 | 12 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Columbus/Dallas UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Columbus is out to get back into the winners circle after three straight losses. The Blue Jackets though struggle with offensive consistency, averaging just 2.50 GPG. Dallas has lost two straight, and it'll be doubling down defensively as well here in my estimation. The Stars only average 2.73 GPG, but they only concede 2.46. Expect a hard-fought, lower-scoring "goaltenders battle!" The play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Dallas. | |||||||
04-14-21 | Golden Knights v. Kings UNDER 5.5 | Top | 6-2 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 58 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas/Kings UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Vegas won here two nights ago by a score of 4-2. The Knights are the No. 1 defensive club in the league, allowing just 2.46 GPG. The Kings struggle offensively, averaging just 2.78 GPG. LA has seen the total go under in eight of its last 11 in trying to revenge a two goals or greater home loss to an opponent; expect this one to stay well under once the final horn sounds! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Vegas. | |||||||
04-13-21 | Flyers v. Capitals -150 | Top | 1-6 | Win | 100 | 11 h 48 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Capitals (10* MONEY-MAKER). Washington is coming off an 8-1 victory at Boston and I think it keeps the foot on the gas here in this favorably matchup. Philadelphia has lost three of four, including a 5-3 setback to the lowly Sabres last time out. The Flyers allow almost 4.00 GPG this year, and that's simply not going to cut it for this well-oiled machine in Washington. This line should/could be a lot larger; the play is the Capitals! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Washington | |||||||
04-12-21 | Blackhawks v. Blue Jackets +111 | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 54 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets (8* MONEY-MAKER). Here's an immediate revenge game for the Blue Jackets, who lost here two nights ago by a score of 4-3. To say this is a "revenge" game would be a bit of an understatement I think as well, as Chicago has taken five of the seven in the season series thus far. Despite their win last time out, the Hawks have still allowed three or more goals in six of their last eight games. The Jackets have lost eight of ten, but note that they're 7-2 in their last nine home games in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which tye conceded four or more goals in. Great value on the revenge-minded home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Columbus. | |||||||
04-12-21 | Maple Leafs -130 v. Canadiens | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -130 | 10 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Toronto (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Toronto's rolling, as it's won six in a row, most recently beating the Senators 6-5. It's also 5-2-3 the last ten in this series. The Habs started out strong after their extended COVID issue, but they've now lost all that momentum, as they come in having lost three straight, most recently a poor 5-0 setback to the Jets. Toronto averages 3.37 GPG, while allowing 2.56. Montreal averages 3.00 GPG, while allowing 2.69. The Habs though are just 1-7 in their last eight in the fourth game in a 4-in-6 situation. Look for the high-powered Leafs to roll right over this floundering Habs side; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Toronto. | |||||||
04-11-21 | Rangers v. Islanders UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 18 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Rangers/Isles UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). The Rangers just won here 4-1 two nights ago, and I expect an even tighter contest this time around. These are two of the best defensive clubs in the league and everything points to another battle until the end (the Isles have seen the total go under in five of their last six in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which they lost by two or more goals in.) This number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 New York. | |||||||
04-10-21 | Jets +116 v. Canadiens | Top | 5-0 | Win | 116 | 11 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jets (10* TRADE-MARK). Neither Edmonton or Toronto will look forward to playing Winnipeg in the playoffs. The Jets are coming off a 4-2 win over the floundering Habs and I think the offer great value to repeat that performance on Saturday night. Montreal has lost three of its last four, while Winnipeg has won three of its last four. Note that Montreal is just 2-6 in its last eight in trying to revenge a two goals or greater home loss to an opponent. I think the better in form Jets are the correct call here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Winnipeg. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Avalanche -1.5 v. Ducks | Top | 2-0 | Win | 100 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Avs PUCK LINE (10* ELITE OF ELITE). On some games, I like to break down every single angle possible. In other contests, I think keeping it simple is the best approach. And that's the case here. Instead of laying the massive -300 chalk on the Avs, I'm going to lay the 1.5 goals for the much more reasonable price. I expect Colorado to bounce back big here after its 8-3 loss at Minnesota last time out. Previous to that the Avs had won five straight. Colorado only allows 2.41 GPG this year, while the Ducks only average 2.28. Lay the 1.5 goals, expect a big time blowout! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Colorado. | |||||||
04-09-21 | Rangers v. Islanders -134 | 4-1 | Loss | -134 | 10 h 29 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (8* DESTROYER). After beating the Penguins 8-4, New York fell flat in a 5-2 setbck to the Pens last night. Can anyone say letdown spot here? The Isles played last night too, and won 3-2 in a shootout here at home to the Flyers. New York only allows 2.28 GPG and I have a hard time seeing these fatigued Rangers putting up much of a fight this evening. All things considered, this line could/should in fact be a lot larger! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders. | |||||||
04-08-21 | Penguins +106 v. Rangers | Top | 5-2 | Win | 106 | 10 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Penguins (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Pittsburgh play with revenge here after falling 8-4 to the Rangers two nights ago. The Penguins and Rangers are evenly matched in every regard, but Pittsburgh has responded well in this spot for bettors, but going 7-3 in its last ten (70%!) in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it conceded six or more goals in. Give me the revenge minded and more motivated visiting side to win decisively! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Pens. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Coyotes v. Kings -111 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kings (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). The Coyotes have been hot of late, winning five of their last six, including a 5-2 win over the Kings here two nights ago. LA has lost five of six, and if it doesn't start winning immediately, then it's season is obviously over. LA plays with revenge and it's offensive and defensive numbers are very comparable to the Coyotes. I think Arizona is primed for a letdown, and note that the Kings are 8-3 in their last 11 in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which they conceded five or more goals in; the play is LA! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 LA. | |||||||
04-07-21 | Golden Knights v. Blues +132 | 1-3 | Win | 132 | 12 h 5 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blues (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). I think this is the spot that St. Louis steps up and finally breaks through with a victory after seven straight losses. One of those includes a 6-1 loss to these Knights here two nights ago. Clearly Las Vegas is the better team, but previous to that victory, the Knights had lost three in a row. I'll point out that St. Louis has in fact done well in this spot for bettors as well, going 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which it scored one or less goals in, while allowing five or more goals in. This is, great value on the hungry home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 St. Louis. | |||||||
04-06-21 | Bruins -126 v. Flyers | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 10 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Boston (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). These teams are evenly matched. Boston though plays with the immediate revenge factor after a 3-2 OT loss to these very Flyers in its last game. The Bruins average 2.7 GPG, while allowing 2.5. The Flyers average 3.00 GPG, while allowing 3.5. Note that Boston is 8-2 in its last ten in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it scored two or less goals in. The play is Boston! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Bruins. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Maple Leafs v. Flames OVER 5.5 | Top | 5-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 16 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Leafs OVER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's offense has been terrible this year. So too has its defense. The Leafs have been one of the best on both ends of the ice. So why is this particular contest going to go over the number? Calgary comes in desperate here, as it still has a shot at the playoffs. It's coming off back-to-back losses in which its totaled just three goals, so expect some adjustments here today for sure as they look to keep pace with the high-flying Leafs. Toronto has also seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 12 after playing to three or more straight unders. This number is low, the lay is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Toronto. | |||||||
04-05-21 | Oilers +117 v. Canadiens | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* GAME OF THE WEEK. Edmonton has won two of its last three, most recently a 3-2 victory over the Flames. Connor McDavid leads the NHL in scoring. Mike Smith is 13-3-1 with a 2.39 GAA. The Canadiens finally came back down to Earth after a big start following a lengthy lay off due to COVID. Last time out they got smashed 6-3 by the lowly Senators. Montreal is just 4-9 in its last 13 when playing on one days rest, while Edmonton is 6-1 in its last seven in ths same position. All signs point to the high-flying Oilers finding a way to deliver on Monday night! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. | |||||||
04-04-21 | Maple Leafs v. Flames OVER 5.5 | Top | 4-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames/Leafs OVER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's offense has been terrible this year. So too has its defense. The Leafs have been one of the best on both ends of the ice. So why is this particular contest going to go over the number? Calgary comes in desperate here, as it still has a shot at the playoffs. It's coming off back-to-back losses in which its totaled just three goals, so expect some adjustments here today for sure as they look to keep pace with the high-flying Leafs. Toronto has also seen the total go over the number in eight of its last 12 after playing to three or more straight unders. This number is low, the lay is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Toronto. | |||||||
04-03-21 | Stars v. Hurricanes -153 | Top | 3-2 | Loss | -153 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* MONEY-MAKER). Dallas has scored three or more goals in six of its last ten games, but it's also conceded three or more goals in seven of its last ten. Carolina continues to fly under the radar as one of the best teams in the league though. The Hurricanes enter on top form as well, having scored three or more goals in four of their last five games. Carolina has also conceded three goals or less in nine of its last ten. Expect the home side's superior defense and goaltending to win the day here and lay this price with confidence! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Carolina. | |||||||
04-02-21 | Flames v. Oilers -139 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* MONEY-MAKER). Edmonton is averaging 3.3 GPG. Its offense has been fantastic this year and I just can't see the putrid Flames' offense, which averages only 2.5 GPG, will be able to keep up here. We're now 2/3rd's of the way through the season, meaning teams are now locked in and ready to make their moves as the playoffs approach. Calgary is still in the hunt for the final spot, but note that it's just 1-5 in its last six on the road. Edmonton on the other hand is 6-0 its last six at home and 7-2 in its last nine home games following a road trip of seven or more days. Great value; lay it! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Edmonton. | |||||||
04-01-21 | Capitals v. Islanders -122 | Top | 4-8 | Win | 100 | 10 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Islanders (10* MONEY-MAKER). Two really good teams here, but I don't think that the home ice advantage can be overlooked as a very real deciding factor. New York is by far the "hungrier" team too, as it's lost two in a row. The Capitals looked poised for a letdown here in this difficult venue in my opinion, and note that they're just 2-6 in their last eight road games following a road loss in which they concded five or more goals in (just lost 5-2 in New York.) Look for the Isles to finally get back on track here in their own building; great value! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Islanders. | |||||||
03-30-21 | Oilers +120 v. Canadiens | Top | 0-4 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers (10* SHOCKER). The Oilers are off a 3-2 OT win in Toronto last night. Edmonton still has a lot of ground to make up in the North division, so the whole fatigue-factor isn't an issue in my opinion. Who knows what we'll see out of Montreal though after a month off due to COVID related issues? One team just beat possibly the best team in hockey just last night, while the other hasn't played a meaningful hockey game in weeks. I'm banking on a blowout, the very definition of "great line value" right here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Oilers. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Jets v. Flames -111 | Top | 5-1 | Loss | -111 | 13 h 27 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Calgary is coming off a 4-2 win here over Winnipeg two nights ago and I like it to keep the foot on the gas and find a way to deliver again. I think the Jets get caught looking ahead to their much more high-profile two-game series at home vs. the Leafs on Wednesday. Calgary is 7-2 in its last nine when coming off a two-goals or greater home victory. I'm banking on the hungrier home side posting a second-straight win here; great line value too! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Calgary. | |||||||
03-29-21 | Islanders -105 v. Penguins | 1-2 | Loss | -105 | 10 h 28 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Isles (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Isles play with immediate revenge here after falling 6-2 to the Pens here two nights ago. New York has to be feeling confident it can bounce back here as it's still only conceding 2.2 GPG. Pittsburgh's been great on both ends of the ice this year, but the Pens are still just 2-6 in their last eight following a home victory of two or more goals. The Isles on the other hand have responded well in this spot for bettors by going 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which they allowed five or more goals in. I'm banking on the stingy Isles to respond on Monday night! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 New York. | |||||||
03-28-21 | Devils v. Bruins -1.5 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 37 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins PUCK LINE (10* MONEY-MAKER). Boston has now won three of its last four after holding on for a 3-2 OT win over Buffalo yesterday afternoon. I like the Bruins to keep the foot on the gas here and to deliver a big victory at home over the lowly Devils. New Jersey still has an outside shot at the playoffs, but inconsistencies, especially in net, have those odds growing longer by the day (four different goaltenders this year for NJ.) Boston is finally starting to resemble last year's team and I look for it to build off yesterday's win. Lay the 1.5 goals for good plus-money return! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Boston. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Jets v. Flames -107 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames (10* TRADE-MARK). The Flames are desperate to break a four-game slide. They also play with revenge here after falling 3-2 here to the Jets just last night. Note that the Flames are 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent. Winnipeg has been great, but note that it's 3-6 in its last nine after three or more straight vitories in a row. Great value on a super desperate home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Calgary. | |||||||
03-27-21 | Rangers v. Flyers +116 | 1-2 | Win | 116 | 4 h 8 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Rangers have beat the Flyers in two straight, outscoring them 17-3 in the process. Can anyone say revenge spot for Philly here? The Flyers have struggled defensively, but I expect the over-acheiving Rangers to finally have a letdown here as they get caught looking ahead to their game at the Capitals tomorrow night. Note that Philly is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent of five or more goals. I'm laying the short price and finally expecting Phialadelphia to produce a great effort from start to finish! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
03-26-21 | Jets +116 v. Flames | 3-2 | Win | 116 | 14 h 14 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Jets (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Calgary's obviously "desperate" after three straight losses in which it's combined to score jsut two goals in. But Winnipeg enters on top form and I simply can't see the Jets losing focus here in this favorable matchup. Also especially because this is the opener of a three-game series here. The Jets are 8-3 in their last 11 vs. a club with a losing record, while Calgary is just 1-4 in its last five overall. I think there's fantastic value here on the much better in form team! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Winnipeg. | |||||||
03-26-21 | Sharks v. Coyotes UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-5 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: San Jose/Arizona UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). San Jose is averaging only 2.7 GPG, while allowing 3.3. The Coyotes are averaging 2.4 GPG, while allowing 3.0. Two poor offenses, vs. two poor defenses. Which will win out today? I'm banking on these teams playing to a lower-scoring under for sure. Both teams love to "grind" out their wins and we can expect a very physical affair here from start to finish. In my opinion, these "style" of hockey games normally lead to lower-scoring affairs and everything points to that happening in this one for sure; the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Arizona. | |||||||
03-25-21 | Lightning v. Stars UNDER 5.5 | 3-4 | Loss | -131 | 13 h 10 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Lightning/Stars UNDER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). These teams were in the Stanley Cup Final last year. This is the conclusion of a two-game set, the Bolts won the first one by a score of 2-1. Everything points to a similar final combined score here as well in my opinion. The Lightning have won five straight. Overall the Bolts concede just 2.2 GPG. Dallas only scores 2.7 GPG on average. The Stars' defense though has been excellent, allowing just 2.4 GPG this season. I think each will double-down on the defensive end again; this number is high! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Bolts. | |||||||
03-25-21 | Rangers v. Flyers +104 | Top | 8-3 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). New York has been on fire, and it just beat Philadelphia 9-0 a week and a half ago. The Flyers have lost three straight. These teams overall records though are quite similar, as New YOrk is 14-13-4 with 32 points, while Philly is 15-12-4 with 34 points. Recent form would suggest that New York would be the correct call here, but I love this price on the more "desperate" team. The Flyers play with revenge after that humiliating loss to the Rangers and they're clearly hungry to break out of their current slide as well. As Bob Barker used to say: "The Price Is Right," as well; the play is Philly! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
03-24-21 | Flames -1.5 v. Senators | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 9 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flames PUCKLINE (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I like the 15-15-3 Flames to avenge their 3-2 loss here two nights ago. The Senators still have the worst defense in the league. They're also a terrible 1-6 in their last seven after holding their previous opponent to two or less goals. Calgary comes in focussed today and delivers in this revenge spot, not only winning here, but winning big; lay the 1.5 goals for the big plus-money return! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Flames. | |||||||
03-23-21 | Red Wings v. Predators -144 | 0-2 | Win | 100 | 12 h 20 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Predators (8* MONEY-MAKER). I think the home side is worth the price of admission in this matchup. The Red Wings are last in their division, most recently coming off a 3-0 loss at home to Dallas. The Wings have now scored two goals or less in five of their last nine games. Detroit has also conceded three goals or more in seven of its last ten. Nashville is trending in the other direction, having won three of ite last four. The Predators are a perfect 4-0 in their last four vs. teams with a winning percentage below .400 and I expect that strong trend to continue here; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Nashville. | |||||||
03-23-21 | Panthers v. Blackhawks UNDER 6.5 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 12 h 19 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Panthers/Hawks UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). Chicago has last four straight. It's also lost all four games to Florida this year, but all on the road. Both teams have dynamic offenses, but if Chicago is going to break out of this slide, clearly it's going to have to concentrate heavily on its performance on the defensive end. The Panthers have been great on the road (10-3), dominating on both ends of the ice, but note that they've seen the total go under the number in seven of their last nine as a road favorite in the -120 to -165 range. This number is a tad high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Florida. | |||||||
03-22-21 | Jets v. Canucks +114 | Top | 4-0 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Vancouver is red hot, but it's coming off a 5-4 shootout loss to the Habs. The Canucks though are ust two spots out of a playoff position now and I expect them to bounce back here on home ice. The Jets are off a 4-2 road loss to Edmonton. The Jets are a great team, but I think they're in the wrong place at the wrong time here. So far Vancouver is just 2-3 in this season series, but it does play with revenge after a 4-2 loss in the latest. I look for the much improved home side to deliver in this favorable spot! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Canucks. | |||||||
03-21-21 | Panthers v. Lightning -136 | 3-5 | Win | 100 | 7 h 58 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Tampa (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). Two really good teams here, but I don't think that home ice advantage can be overlooked as a very real deciding factor in this matchup. Tampa is also 41-10 in its last 51 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation, while the Panthers are just 5-16 in their last 21 vs. a team with a winning record. All things considered, a fantastic price on the defending champs! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-19-21 | Golden Knights v. Kings UNDER 5.5 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kings/Vegas UNDER (10* TOTAL MONEY The Knights are on a four-game win streak. Most recently they held on for a high-scoring 5-4 win over the Sharks on Wednesday. Las Vegas is adept on both ends of the ice though and after that high-scoring victory last time, I'm definitely expecting more of a defensive affair here from the visiting side (note that the Knighs have still conceded two goals or less in five out of their last nine games.) The Kings are coming off a much-needed 4-1 win over the Blues (note though that LA has scored two goals or less in six of its last ten.) Expect a hard-fought, but ultimately low-scoring under in this one! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-18-21 | Coyotes v. Ducks +115 | Top | 2-3 | Win | 115 | 14 h 14 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ducks (10* SHOCKER BEST OF THE BEST). At some point the Coyotes are going to break out of their current slump which has seen them lose four in a row, but I think that they're in the wrong place at the wrong time here. Anaheim has lost four in a row as well, but it's been its defensive play which has let it down. Thankfully Anaheim is facing a Coyotes team that has no offensive punch at all right now. Further note that Arizona is a poor 8-23 in its last 31 on the road and 0-4 in its last four when playing one days rest. Anaheim is just 2-5 the last seven in this series, so the revenge factor is working in its favor here as well! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Anaheim. | |||||||
03-17-21 | Blues -135 v. Kings | 1-4 | Loss | -135 | 14 h 25 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Blues (8* BANKROLL BUILDER). The Blues come in ultra hungry here after losing four straight. The Kings have lost eight of their last ten. The St. Louis offense though is the difference here for me, as it enters averaging 3.1 GPG. The Kings offense has definitely struggled all year, as it enters averaging just 2.8. The Blues are 14-5 as well in their last 19 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation, while the Kings are just 1-6 in their last seven as an underdog. Expect St. Louis to finally get back on track here! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-17-21 | Canadiens v. Jets OVER 5.5 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Habs/Jets OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Winnipeg has seen the total go over in eight straight. That includes the Canadiens 4-2 win here two nights ago. That was the fourth game this year that these teams have combined for six or more goals. Note as well that the Jets have seen the total go over the number in ten of their last 14 home games in trying to revenge a two goals or greater home loss to an opponent. Look for these two division rivals to push the pace and expect this total to fly over sooner, rather than later! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-16-21 | Coyotes +1.5 v. Wild | 0-3 | Loss | -140 | 12 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Coyotes PUCK LINE (6*). I like Arizona to at the very least, keep this one close enough to comfortably cover with the extra 1.5 goals. The Coyotes lost here 4-1 just two nights ago, and note that they're 7-2 in their last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which they scored one or less goals in. Minnesota has won four in a row, but with a tough two game set in Colorado up next, this absolutely sets up as a look ahead spot. I think this one will be decided late or in extra time, so I'm going to lay the price and get the extra goal-and-a-half! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Arizona. | |||||||
03-16-21 | Bruins +102 v. Penguins | 2-1 | Win | 102 | 11 h 40 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bruins (8*). It's all hands on deck for Boston which has lost four of its last five, including a 4-1 setback here just last night. Previous to that it lost 4-0 to the Rangers. Note though that Boston is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a loss vs. an opponent in which it scored one or less goals in. After six straight victories, I expect Pittsburgh to finally come out flat here, getting caught looking ahead to a much easier three-game series vs. the Devils next. Great value on the desperate Bruins! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Boston | |||||||
03-16-21 | Sabres +1.5 v. Devils | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Sabres PUCK LINE (6*). Both teams are terrible. Buffalo has lost ten in a row, including a 6-0 setback last night at home to Washington. New Jersey has lost nine of its last ten, its lone win was a 1-0 victory over a poor Boston team. Buffalo plays with revenge here as well after losing 4-3 in the most recent matchup with NJ. This one is going to come down to the wire, which is why I'm going to lay the price and get the extra 1.5 goals! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Buffalo. | |||||||
03-15-21 | Oilers v. Flames OVER 6 | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 13 h 24 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Oilers/Flames OVER (8* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Edmonton has a 3-1 series lead so far this year. Calgary has won two in a row, most recently a 3-1 victory over the Habs. The Oilers have a great offense led by Connor McDavid, but Edmonton's weak point is on the back end and between the pipes. While several of their games have fallen under the number of late and against each other, I look for tonight's contest to finally fly over in what I expect to be a very wide open affair; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Edmonton. | |||||||
03-15-21 | Canadiens v. Jets +100 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 12 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jets (10* TRADE-MARK). I think this is a great price on the "better" team here, which has the luxury of playing at home. It's hard to know what you'll get out of Montreal from night to night. It enters on a two game losing streak and it has to contend with a Jets' offense which is averaging 3.37 GPG this year, while allowing 2.85. Montreal is averaging 3.19 GPG, and conceding 2.63, but those numbers are a bit skewed due to its amazing start. Off a big series win over the division leading Leafs, I like the Jets to kick in the afterburners here at home and scorch the floundering Canadiens; lay the short price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Winnipeg. | |||||||
03-14-21 | Kings v. Avalanche OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-4 | Loss | -108 | 9 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Kings/Avs OVER (10* TOTAL BEST OF BEST). After a great run, the Kings are going to need to adjust here as they've lost six of their last eight. That includes a 2-0 shutout loss here two nights ago. LA is in the middle of the pack both offensively and defensively, but it' seen the total go over the number in 8 of its last 10 in trying to revenge a road shutout loss to an opponent. Colorado has been floundering of late, but it'll be looking to build on its modest two-game win streak. Both situationally. Expect a much more wide-open, and ultimately higher-scoring contest here. The play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Avs. | |||||||
03-13-21 | Blackhawks v. Panthers -157 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 24 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Florida Panthers (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Chicago has been better of late, but it's still lost three of its last five. Off a 4-2 win at Dallas though, I expect it to struggle with consistency in this difficult road venue. The Panthers are off a 5-4 OT win at Columbus in their last outing. Florida averages 3.38 GPG, while conceding only 2.85 and I expect that consistency on both ends of the ice to be just too much for the Hawks to handle in the opener of this two-game series in Florida; lay the price! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Florida. | |||||||
03-12-21 | Sharks v. Ducks -118 | Top | 6-0 | Loss | -118 | 13 h 29 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ducks (10* MONEY-MAKER). Both teams are near the bottom of the league. The Ducks had gone on a small mini-run, bu tthey came back down to earth with a 5-1 loss in their most recent action. Still, the Sharks are downright terrible, allowing 3.7 GPG. The offense for San Jose is likely even worse, averaging just 2.7 GPG. Anaheim is also 7-3 in its last ten after allowing five or more goals in a home loss in its last outing. Great value on the Ducks here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Anaheim. | |||||||
03-11-21 | Canadiens v. Flames OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -111 | 13 h 39 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Habs/Flames OVER (10* TOTAL ELITE OF THE ELITE). Montreal enters off a much-needed 5-1 win at Vancouver last night. Vancouver had won three in a row previous to that, but the Habs were desperate for a decent offensive performance and they finally got one. Calgary though enters desperate here now as well after three straight losses. These are two teams in need of a win and I expect that competitiveness to translate into offensive production on the ice this evening. One last thing, note that the Canadiens have seen the total go over the number in seven of their last ten when playing the second game of a back-to-back and off a victory in their first one. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Calgary. | |||||||
03-10-21 | Canadiens v. Canucks +132 | 5-1 | Loss | -100 | 15 h 39 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Canucks have been playing great, as they've won three in a row. That includes a 2-1 shootout win over the Habs here two nights ago. Montreal is definitely going the other direction, as it's struggling with consistency on both ends of the ice. Vancouver won't be looking past Montreal here though after such a terrible start to the season, so I expect the home side to continue to progress. All things considered, I think this is great value on this undervalued home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
03-10-21 | Golden Knights -116 v. Wild | Top | 3-4 | Loss | -116 | 11 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). Vegas and Minnesota are very evenly matched. Clearly the oddsmakers think so as well. Their offensive and defensive numbers are very similar as well. This is a tough conference for sure. The Wild won here 2-0 two nights ago, so the immediate revenge factor comes into play here and it'll be the difference in the end in my opinion (as note that Las Vegas is 7-2 in its last nine in trying to revenge a shutout loss vs. an opponent.) Great value on the talented Knights! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vegas. | |||||||
03-09-21 | Panthers v. Blue Jackets +117 | Top | 4-2 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 20 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jackets (10* TRADE-MARK). These teams have played twice and each has won once. Florida is coming off a 4-2 loss to Carolina. Florida is struggling on the defensive end of late, allowing at least three goals in five out of its last seven games. Columbus has also been struggling of late, but after losing six of its last eight games, we definitely don't have to question its resolve or focus here. The Jackets come in focussed after a humbling 5-0 loss to Dallas (note that they're 7-2 in their last nine after getting shutout in their last outing) and take advantage of this suddenly struggling Panthers' defense. Great value play on the hungrier home side! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Columbus. | |||||||
03-08-21 | Kings v. Ducks +108 | Top | 5-6 | Win | 108 | 13 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ducks (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). Both teams started out slowly, but each is looking better. LA lost four in a row before its most recent 4-3 win over the Blues. The Ducks just snapped a nine-game losing streak with a 5-4 OT win over the Avs, so they clearly aren't going to be happy in this spot. Anaheim had played to seven straight one goal losses before its win, so the Ducks have in fact been playing hyper-competitively of late. Expect the home side to find a way to get the job done here! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Anaheim. | |||||||
03-07-21 | Panthers v. Hurricanes -146 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 8 h 15 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Hurricanes (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). No need to overthink this one. Florida is off a very satisfying 6-2 win at Nashville just last night and I'm definitely expecting a letdown here in the second game of the B2B situation (note that Florida is just 2-6 in its last eight after scoring six or more goals in a four goals or greater victory in its last outing as well.) Carolina enters on top form, winner of four straight, including a 5-2 in at Detroit. The Hurricanes have also had two whole nights off (rare in the NHL these days), and in my opinion, they're getting severely undervalued still in this situation. All things considered, I'd say that this is the very definition of "great line value." The play is Carolina! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Carolina. | |||||||
03-06-21 | Flyers v. Penguins OVER 6 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 6 h 49 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pens/Flyers OVER (10* TOTAL SLAP-SHOT). The first two games of this three-game mini-series have flown well over the number and all signs point to another barn-burner on Saturday afternoon. Philly is great offensively, averaging 3.35 GPG, but it's poor on the defensive end, conceding 3.00 GPG. Pittsburgh has also been great offensively, averaging 2.95 GPG. The Pens though have struggled on the defensive end by conceding an average of 3.23 GPG. Pittsburgh had a 3-0 lead late in the last game, but then fell apart. Everything once again points to another shootout! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Pens. | |||||||
03-05-21 | Wild v. Coyotes +125 | Top | 5-1 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Coyotes (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). I like the Coyotes to build off their 3-2 win over LA from two nights ago. Minnesota is 5-3-2 on the road, but the Wild come to town in terrible form, having lost two straight and conceding a whopping ten goals in the process. The Coyotes just broke a two-game slide in their last outing, so they won't be taking anything for granted here. These teams play again here tomorrow night, but this opener favors the home side here. Great value on the Coyotes! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Yotes. | |||||||
03-05-21 | Capitals v. Bruins -131 | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 11 h 55 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Bruins (8* MONEY-MAKER). I expect the Bruins, who have been waffling with their performance over the last two weeks, to avenge their 2-1 OT loss to the Capitals here from two nights ago. These teams sport similar offensive and defensive numbers, but Boston is a near-perfect 6-1 in its last seven in trying to avenge an OT home loss to an opponent in which it scored one or less goals in. All things considered, I'd call this the very definition of "great line value." Play on the Bruins! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Boston. | |||||||
03-04-21 | Jets v. Canadiens -139 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -139 | 11 h 9 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canadiens (10* GAME OF THE WEEK). The Jets are off a 5-2 win over Vancouver and they've won five of their last seven, but I think they'll stumble vs. this determined Canadiens team, which finally broke a five-game slide with a 3-1 win over the Senators. These teams sport similar offensive and defensive numbers. Both have good goaltending as well. Montreal plays with triple revenge here though and after just snapping a huge losing streak, I expect the home side to come out on fire here. Look for Winnipeg to take a step back in this difficult road venue and lay the price with confidence! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
03-03-21 | Wild v. Golden Knights -136 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 14 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas (10* ELITE OF THE ELITE). Vegas won this game 5-4 in OT last night and I think that the second game of the back-to-back absoltuely favors the home side here. Vegas has won two-straight in OT, but with a six-game road-trip upcoming, tonight's game takes on added importance. And for the Wild, last night's loss snapped a six-game slide and I expect another letdown here as well. Finally note that Minnesota is in fact just 2-7 in its last nine after allowing five or more goals in an OT loss in its last outing. For all the reasons listed above, I'm taking Vegas baby! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Knights. | |||||||
03-02-21 | Senators v. Canadiens -1.5 | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 56 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Habs PUCK LINE (8* MONEY-MAKER). Ottawa's been playing a lot better of late, but after its 5-1 win at home over Calgary just last night, I look for a predictable letdown here in the second game of the back-to-back. Despite looking better of late, the Sens still rank dead last in terms of goals allowed per game. The Habs are going through some coaching changes, but note that they're 8-2 in their last ten after five or more straight losses in a row. Expect a blowout win and lay the 1.5 goals! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Montreal. | |||||||
03-01-21 | Avalanche -1.5 v. Sharks | 2-6 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 19 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Avs PUCK LINE (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Avs had been scuffling before a 6-2 win over Arizona last time out. Suffice it to say, I expect Colorado to keep the pressure on here as it looks to take advantage of floundering San Jose, which has lost two in a row. Over those two losses the Sharks have conceded 13 goals (overall they're conceding 3.89 GPG.) The Avs are 6-3-1 on the road this year, while the Sharks are just 1-3-0 at home. San Jose is also a terrible 1-6 in its last six after scoring five goals or more in its previous game. I expect Colorado to not only win, but to win BIG; the play is the Avs on the puck line! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Colorado. | |||||||
02-28-21 | Blue Jackets v. Predators -129 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 24 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Predators (10* TRADE-MARK). Nashville fell behind 1-0 in yesterday's matchup against the Blue Jackets, but two second period goals were the difference in the end, as the Predators would then hold on for the 2-1 victory. I expect another victory here for Nashville as well, but more of the "rocking chair" variety. Note that the Predators are 7-2 in their last nine home games after allowing one or less goals in a home victory in their last outing, while Columbus is just 2-6 in its last eight when playing the second game of a back-to-back on the road and coming off a loss in which it scored one goal or less in. Great price, the play is Nashville! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Predators. | |||||||
02-27-21 | Flyers -138 v. Sabres | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 5 h 52 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* TRADE-MARK). The Flyers are only three games out of first place. They'd lost two in a row before beating the Rangers 4-3 last time out. Philly's offense averages 3.44 GPG. The Sabres have lost five of their last seven and they're averaging just 2.47 GPG. Both teams have had to deal with COVID issues this year, but note that Philly is 13-5 in its last 18 vs. teams with losing records and 12-5 in its last 17 on the road. Buffalo on the other hand is 0-4 in its last four home games. Expect the Flyers to find a way to get it done here! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
02-26-21 | Kings +157 v. Wild | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 8 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: LA Kings (10* TRADE-MARK). Both teams enter white hot. Both teams are doing extremely well on both ends of the ice right now. Honestly, it wouldn't be difficult at all to write a convincing argument for either of these teams to win this game, but at this price, I think the value definitely swings to the underdog. Note that Minnesota is just 2-6 in its last eight home games as well after scoring six or more goals in a three-goals or greater victory in its last outing. Great value play here on the Kings! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 LA. | |||||||
02-25-21 | Devils v. Sabres -109 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 46 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Sabres (10* TRADE-MARK). These teams have played four times this year and the Sabres hold a 3-1 edge. I like Buffalo to find a way to get the job done here as well. These teams played in New Jersey on Tuesday and Buffalo posted the 4-1 victory. New Jersey has allowed 41 goals this year overall, which is seventh in the league. Buffalo though quickly got through some COVID issues and it's looked great, led by Jack Eichel, who leads the team with 14 points. The Sabres are 4-1 in their last five as a home favorite and 9-3 in their last 13 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation, while New Jersey is just 1-6 in its last seven when playing on one days rest. Lay it! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Buffalo. | |||||||
02-24-21 | Rangers v. Flyers -116 | Top | 3-4 | Win | 100 | 10 h 22 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Flyers (10* TRADE-MARK). Enough is enough for the Flyers. Almost every team, whether pro or College, that's had to take time off due to COVID related issues has struggled this season. Philadelphia has lost two straight coming into this one after an extended period off due to COVID, but I think that it finally has its game legs underneath it here and I expect it to bounce back at home after a 7-3 defeat in its last outing to the Bruins. The Ranger have been consistently inconsistent all year, especially on the offensive end. Now they just lost their best offensive star in Panarin. All things considered, I view this to be the very definition of "great line value." The play is Philly! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Flyers. | |||||||
02-23-21 | Oilers v. Canucks +117 | Top | 4-3 | Loss | -100 | 14 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Edmonton has started to resemble the team most thought it would be before the season started, as it's won three straight and six of its last seven. But all good things come to an end. Winning breeds complacency, especially among younger players. And especially in this different season, where teams are forced to face the same clubs all year. Off a 7-1 win over the Flames, I think Edmonton does indeed come in complacent here. Vancouver has taken a major step back here, but after back-to-back losses to the Jets, we don't have to question the resolve of the home side here. Vancouver still has a good offense (2.91 GPG), and combined with the intensity that I expect it to play with here, I look for it to pull off the minor upset here vs. the Oilers! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
02-22-21 | Golden Knights v. Avalanche UNDER 5.5 | Top | 3-0 | Win | 100 | 13 h 54 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Vegas/Avs UNDER (10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK). These two teams are good. Las Vegas is 10-4-1 and Colorado is 9-4-1. Each will be in the playoffs. Both have exceptional goaltending, as Las Vegas allows just 2.1 GPG, while Colorado allows only 2.1 as well. These teams can score, but they prefer playing a lock/trap style of game and that's exactly what I expect here. These teams have played to several unders of late and we can expect that strong trend to continue once again! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Vegas. | |||||||
02-21-21 | Canadiens -1.5 v. Senators | 2-3 | Loss | -100 | 11 h 27 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Habs PUCK LINE (8* MONEY-MAKER). The Canadiens are 9-4-2 and the Senators are 4-14-1. These teams have played twice this season and split. The Habs offense has finally started to go cold after an incredible start, but here's the perfect opponent to get untracked against. Goaltending continues to be a strong point for Montreal, with Carey Price at 5-3-2 with a 2.87 GAA. The Sens have lost two straight, most recently a 7-3 listless setback to the Leafs. Goaltending has been a major issue for Ottawa, as it ranks dead last in GPG conceded. I look for the Habs' struggling offense to get back on track in this favorable matchup! T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Habs. | |||||||
02-20-21 | Islanders v. Penguins OVER 5.5 | Top | 2-3 | Loss | -109 | 11 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Pens/Isles OVER (10* TOTAL ELITE OF ELITE). The Pens have won two of three fro the Isles, including a 4-1 victory at home on Thursday. Now New York is out for some revenge here as it looks to bounce back. Each has uncharacteristically struggled a big offensively, but note that the Isles have seen the total go over the number in seven of their last ten in trying to revenge a road loss vs. an opponent in which they scored one or less goals in; the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Pittsburgh. | |||||||
02-19-21 | Oilers v. Flames OVER 6.5 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 4 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Oilers/Flames OVER (10* NORTH CONF. TOTAL OF THE MONTH). Edmonton is 10-8 and the Flames are 8-7-1. These were two teams predicted to compete for a part of the Northern Conference title, but so far each has struggled with consistency. Here's a big opportunity for each to get back on track and I expect this competitive nature to translate into an offensive explosion on the ice tonight. Edmonton averages 3.5 GPG and it concedes 3.3, while Calgary averages 2.9 GPG and it allows 2.7. Calgary though is coming off a 5-1 home loss to the Canucks (after taking two of three in Vancouver), and note that it's also seen the total eclipse the posted number in seven of its last nine after allowing five or more goals in a four goals or greater home loss in its last outing. This one has "O-V-E-R" written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Oilers. | |||||||
02-18-21 | Sabres v. Capitals UNDER 6.5 | Top | 1-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 1 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Sabres/Capitals UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). The Sabres looked slow in their first two games back after an extended COVID issue, losing both to the red hot Islanders. I think it's going to take a few more games for the Sabres to get their "game legs" back underneath them. Washington has been hit or miss this year as well, but after a 2-1 win over the Penguins last time out, we can expect the home side to duplicate that performance here. I expect this game to be a "grinder" and for this total to stay well under once the final horn blares! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Washington. | |||||||
02-17-21 | Canucks +133 v. Flames | Top | 5-1 | Win | 133 | 13 h 59 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* MONEY-MAKER). Off a 4-3 loss at home to Calgary, and having lost seven of their last ten overall, I think the Canucks dig deep here and find a way to get the job done vs. the inconsistent Flames in this revenge scenario. Vancouver actually lost two of three to Calgary at home and it plays only the one game here in Calgary. The Flames are content now off the successful road trip and are going to get caught looking ahead to their two-game series vs. Provincial rival Edmonton on Friday and Saturday. This one has minor upset written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
02-15-21 | Blue Jackets +1.5 v. Hurricanes | Top | 3-7 | Loss | -159 | 10 h 50 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Blue Jackets PUCK LINE (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). I think this is going to be a super competitive game. I think it's going to be decided late or even in extra periods, so for me, I think the Jackets are well worth laying the mid-sized price for the extra 1.5 goals of insurance. Columbus is a deep team, skilled in every facet and honestly, it would not be too hard to see them winning this one outright. In the end though, let's lay the price for Columbus on the puckline! T.M. Prediction: 4-3 Jackets. | |||||||
02-14-21 | Capitals v. Penguins OVER 6.5 | Top | 3-6 | Win | 100 | 8 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Caps/Pens OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Washington's been off since the 7th due to some COVID issues with its opponent, so it comes in rested and ready to break a three-game slide. It last lost 7-4 at home to the Flyers. The Penguins enter off a 4-3 OT win over the Islanders, two nights after falling 4-3 on Long Island. There's no love loss between these two teams and each club has suffered with consistency from game-to-game in the early going. I expect a very wide-open affair and I'll point out as well that the Capitals have seen the total fly over in eight of their last 11 when playing three or more days of rest. This one has "O-V-E-R" written ALL over it! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Penguins. | |||||||
02-13-21 | Senators v. Jets OVER 6 | Top | 2-1 | Loss | -116 | 8 h 10 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Sens/Jets OVER (10*). The Senators are super desperate, as they've lost four straight and nine of their last ten. They've seen the total go under in six straight, not surprising considering their pretty much the worst offensive team in the league. To make matters worse, they're also the worst defensively, conceding over 4.00 GPG. The Jets won all four games over the Sens last year and I think they'll build off their 5-1 win here in this matchup two nights ago. I look for Winnipeg to duplicate its offensive performance, but I think the Sens will put up a bit more of a fight this time around. T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Jets. | |||||||
02-12-21 | Bruins v. Rangers OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-0 | Loss | -113 | 12 h 38 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins/Rangers OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). It's one of the best teams in the league against one of the worst. I mean, if we're going to simply go by their win/loss record that is. But yes, Boston is obviously the favorite here, as it is for sure the much better, more complete team in every respect over its counterpart. The Rangers are young and they've been getting shaky goaltending. Boston averages 3.08 GPG, but it didn't look to fantastic in its 3-2 OT win here two nights ago. The Bruins have now won three straight games by one goal. Boston has in fact gone to overtime as well in three of its last five games, winning two of those. The only other loss in OT was a 4-3 setback at Washington, but they followed that up with a 5-3 in the nation's capital in the following game. The Rangers are struggling offensively and the Bruins only allow 2.17 goals per game. But, when I bet on an OVER, I like to make sure I bet on "motivated" teams and for sure we can say without question that the Rangers are hungry and motivated and whatever other adjective you want to throw in their to describe how much they really want and need to get a win here. New York has now seen the total go UNDER in four straight, but I'll point out that the Rangers have seen the total fly OVER in eight of their last 11 home games after seeing the total go UNDER in three or more straight contests. I think that the second game between these teams will be much more wide open and I expect this total to fly OVER sooner, rather than later. T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Bruins. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
02-11-21 | Penguins v. Islanders OVER 5.5 | 4-3 | Win | 100 | 11 h 51 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Isles/Pens OVER (8* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Both teams are struggling right around the .500 mark, which is going to lead to a very wide-open, higher-scoring affair in my opinion, as each pushes the pace in search of a much-needed victory. Goaltending is a major problem for the Pens, as Tristan Jarry is 2-4-1 with a 3.95 GAA, while Casey DeSmith has a 2.85 GAA. The Isles don't care and they're looking to build off two straight victories. The Isles come in off a shutout victory over the Rangers, but I think they'll have a much more difficult time containing this desperate Penguins side. This total is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-3 Isles. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
02-09-21 | Ducks v. Golden Knights UNDER 5.5 | Top | 4-5 | Loss | -109 | 14 h 3 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Ducks/Knights UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Vegas just lost 4-3 to the Kings, while the Ducks are off a 2-1 win over San Jose. This is the opener of a two-game set and I believe it'll be a tight, lower-scoring battle. Las Vegas has one of the best defenses in the league and after ten days off between games because of COVID issues, I believe it'll be the Knights' offense that stalls out of the gate. The Ducks are one of the lowest scoring teams in the league, but are in the top 10 defensively. This one has "u-n-d-e-r" written all over it! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Vegas. | |||||||
02-08-21 | Canucks +1.5 v. Maple Leafs | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -134 | 10 h 17 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks PUCK LINE (10* BANKROLL BUILDER). Clearly, Toronto is the better team this year. Vancouver made big strides last season, even advancing into the second round of the playoff bubble. But it lost a bunch of its defensive core, including goaltenders and it's had a much more difficult time this season duplicating its success. Toronto was good last year and it's seemingly gotten better this year. The Canucks have a good offense, but their defense and goaltending has been terrible. The Leafs are much improved on the defensive end. However, the Canucks are desperate for a win here after losing two straight, and with two games agains the Habs upcoming, I look for the Leafs to get caught looking ahead. Grab the extra 1.5 goals - the play is the Canucks on the puck line! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
02-05-21 | Bruins v. Flyers UNDER 5.5 | Top | 2-1 | Win | 100 | 27 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Bruins/Flyers UNDER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Boston won 4-3 here on Wednesday in overtime. That game appeared as if it would go "under" for most of it, but a late barrage of goals in late second period and third frame ensured that it went over the number. Carter Hart and Tukka Rask both have the abililty to take over a contest at any time and that's definitely what I'm expecting tonight. Note as well that Philly has actually seen the total dip below the number in eight of its last 12 in trying to revenge an OT home loss vs. an opponent. This number is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: 2-1 Boston. | |||||||
02-04-21 | Predators v. Panthers UNDER 5.5 | Top | 6-5 | Loss | -100 | 10 h 26 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Preds/Panthers UNDER (10* TOTAL BANKROLL BUILDER). Florida is 5-1 to start the year. Scoring is up around the league again, but the Panthers get the job done with tough defensive play. Nashville has struggled on offense, and been much better on the defensive end. I look for Sergei Bobrosvky to keep this suspect Predators offense in check. This total is high, the play is the under! T.M. Prediction: COMING SHORTLY. | |||||||
02-03-21 | Red Wings v. Lightning OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-5 | Win | 100 | 10 h 41 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Tampa/Detroit OVER (10* TOTAL MONEY-MAKER). Tampa's once again rolling this year, as the Lightning have only lost two games so far this season. On the other end of the spectrum is the Detroit Red Wings, who have only won two games all year. Those two games came at home over the Blackhawks. Detroit has struggled to score goals, but the main culprit has been a league-worst defense. And that obviously doesn't bode well facing the high-scoring Lightning, who have seen the total go over the number in eight of their last 11 home games as a favorite in the -185 to -250 points range. This number is low, the play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Tampa. | |||||||
02-02-21 | Senators v. Oilers OVER 6.5 | Top | 2-4 | Loss | -122 | 11 h 34 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Sens/Oilers OVER (10* TRADE-MARK). Ottawa is terrible. The Senators are off an 8-5 loss to these very Oilers here two nights ago. Suffice it to say, I expect a similar final combined score here as well once it's all said and done. Not surprisingly, the Senators are the worst defensive club in the league, conceding 4.89 GPG. And that's bad news for an Oilers team which is averaging 3.45 GPG. Note though that Edmonton has also struggled on the defensive end by allowing 3.73 GPG. Expect both teams to open things back up and for this total to easily eclipse the posted number! T.M. Prediction: 6-3 Oilers. | |||||||
02-01-21 | Canucks +1.5 v. Canadiens | Top | 2-6 | Loss | -161 | 11 h 6 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* PUCK-LINE GAME OF THE WEEK). In a contest which I see being decided late or in extra time, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals. Vancouver started the year 2-5, but it's since won four straight. The Canucks have looked a lot better on the defensie end and I think the oddsmakers are slow in adjusting. The Habs went 0 for 5 on the power play on Saturday in their loss to the Flames. The Canadiens have done better than most thought in the early going, but again let's not overreact to the first two weeks of play. Note that Vancouver is 7-2 in its last nine after a three-games or longer unbeaten streak. Lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals. T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
01-31-21 | Blue Jackets v. Blackhawks OVER 5.5 | Top | 1-3 | Loss | -105 | 11 h 2 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Jackets/Hawks OVER (10* TOTAL TRADE-MARK). Columbus won 2-1 here two nights ago, one night after beating Florida 3-2 in a shootout. The Jackets have won three of their last four and they'll now look to keep the foot on the gas here against the defensively challenged Blackhawks, who have had three different goaltenders between the pipes already this season. Neither team has been great offensively so far this year, but after the low-scoring first contest, we can expect each team to open up the playbook this evening. I'll point out as well that Chicago has seen the total go over the number in seven of its last ten after in trying to revenge a home loss vs. an opponent in which it scored one or no goals in. The play is the over! T.M. Prediction: 5-4 Columbus. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
01-26-21 | Red Wings v. Stars -1.5 | Top | 1-2 | Loss | -100 | 13 h 57 m | Show |
T.M. Selection: Stars (10* PUCK-LINE MONEY-MAKER). Who saw the Stars coming out flying and crushing the Predators in two straight games after having the start of their season delayed by COVID issues? Not me. Detroit is now just 2-4-0 this year and I think it'll have its hands full trying to slow down this deep and talented home side. Detroit has managed just 2.00 GPG on 26.2 shots this season, while conceding 2.74 goals. Dallas is putting up 25 shots on net, while averaging 5.00 GPG. It's also 6-2 in its last eight vs. clubs with teams below .600. Detroit on the other hand is just 27-68 in its last 95 vs. teams with winning records. Look for Dallas to not only win this game, but win it by a huge margin. The play is Dallas on the PUCK LINE. T.M. Prediction: 5-1 Dallas. | |||||||
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. | |||||||
01-23-21 | Canadiens v. Canucks +1.5 | 5-2 | Loss | -180 | 12 h 12 m | Show | |
T.M. Selection: Vancouver Canucks PUCK LINE (8* BEST OF THE BEST). I think that wise move here is to lay the steeper price for the extra 1.5 goals of insurance. The Canucks won in a shootout in the first game 6-5, and then the Habs won 7-3 in the second. I expect a very competitive affair like we saw in the first game. This three-games in a row dynamic is leading to intense short rivalries and I expect that to be the case today; lay the price for the Canucks on the PUCK-LINE! T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver. | |||||||
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. |
