It’s a nice slate of NHL games on Monday with seven games taking place. Let’s take a look at a free pick on each of the games to make your Monday a winning one.
Anaheim Ducks +230 at Boston Bruins -263 Total: 6
The Boston Bruins are the better team here, but I don’t think they should be laying this type of number. The Ducks were able to beat the Lightning in the last game after putting up five goals, and they are going to find enough offense in this game to keep it close. Back the Ducks getting the +1.5 goals.
Play: Ducks +1.5
Los Angeles Kings at New York Rangers
The Rangers have one of the best defenses in the NHL giving up only 2.54 goals per game and they are going to find success locking down a Kings offense that has been strong most of the season. The Rangers offense has been inconsistent and they are going to struggle to score too. Back the under to cash.
Play: Under
Vegas Golden Knights +105 at Washington Capitals -125 Total: 6
The Vegas Golden Knights and Washington Capitals have found success scoring this year and there will be no shortage of scoring. Vegas is averaging 3.46 goals per game while Washington is averaging 3.27 goals per game. I expect both teams to score at least three goals and the over will cash.
Play: Over
Dallas Stars -142 at Philadelphia Flyers +125 Total: 6
The Flyers have no doubt been awful, but I like the value they present in this game. The Stars defense hasn’t been great this year giving up 3.105 goals per game, and the Flyers are going to find a way to put shots on goal. Back the Flyers to pull the upset.
Play: Flyers ML +125
Chicago Blackhawks +240 at Colorado Avalanche -303 Total: 6
This total could be seven and I would still bet the over. The Blackhawks defense has been awful this year, and the Colorado Avalanche are averaging 4.154 goals per game. The Avs should get to five goals by themselves, and the Blackhawks will pick up a couple of more. Back the over.
Play: Over
Montreal Canadiens +260 at Minnesota Wild -333 Total: 6
The Minnesota Wild are an elite offensive team averaging 3.70 goals per game and they are going to go well over their average in this game. Over the last two games the WIld have scored nine goals total, and the Canadiens defense will have no answer. Back the Wild -2.5
Play: Wild -2.5
St. Louis Blues at Calgary Flames
The Blues and Flames have both had strong defenses this year and goals are going to be hard to come by. The Blues are giving up only 2.65 goals per game and the Flames are giving up 2.58 goals per game. I expect both offenses are going to struggle and that is going to lead to the under cashing.
Play: Under
