TGIF 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The St. Louis Blues have made themselves comfortable on the West Coast as they look to make it four straight wins in California after winning one at San Jose and two at Anaheim. Overall, the Blues are 9-2-0 away from home this season and they are 6-1 in their last 7 games as a road favorite. Here they'll face a Los Angeles Kings team that has scored only six goals through three consecutive losses. We can also note that this is a revenge spot for the Blues as they've dropped three straight against the Kings after defeating them in the first meeting of the season. 8* play on St. Louis Blues. |

MULTI-PICK PACK Good spot to back the Minnesota Wild to bounce back from pair of losses to Vegas. The Arizona Coyotes are coming off a 3-2 win over the LA Kings, but the Yotes are only 6-16 in their last 22 games following a win and 1-4 in their last 5 games as a home underdog. In their last game, the Wild took a 5-1 beating by Vegas but they are 9-2 in their last 11 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. 8* play on Minnesota Wild. |

TOP-RATED 10* LEAFS @ OILERS NHL PLAY OF THE DAY The Edmonton Oilers had won five straight before getting shut out in back-to-back games at Toronto on Saturday and Monday. Now they get a chance to avenge the losses home at Rogers Place, and I expect to get a reaction and a big game from the home team. 10* play on Edmonton Oilers. |

TUESDAY NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE Big revenge game for the Winnipeg Jets who saw a four-game winning streak come to an end with a 4-0 loss to Vancouver last night. The win put an end to a four-game skid for the Nucks, and we can note that despite the win, they were outshot 27-19. The Canucks are only 4-8 on the road, Winnipeg is 8-4-1 home at Bell MTS Place. 8* play on Winnipeg Jets. |

02-27-21 | Blues -154 v. Sharks | 7-6 | Win | 100 | 23 h 18 m | Show | |
LATE NIGHT NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE Love the St. Louis Blues as a road favorite at San Jose Saturday night. We should see a reaction from the Blues after dropping three straight at home. Note that they are 6-2-0 away from the Enterprise Center while the Sharks are only 1-2-0 home in the Shark Tank. Additionally, San Jose has not played since a 6-2 loss to Minnesota on Monday. That seems like too much time off to me, and I expect the Blues to take advantage of a somewhat rusty San Jose side. Blues are 7-2 in their last 9 games as a road favorite. Sharks are 0-4 in their last 4 games as a home underdog. Blues are 7-2 in the last 9 meetings. 8* play on St. Louis Blues. |

They will play their third game in four nights and have had only one day of rest since a 4-3 OT loss to New Jersey. The Philadelphia Flyers have had two days rest since a 4-3 win against New York Rangers. Sabres are 0-6 in their last 6 games as a home underdog.

TGIF NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE Great spot to back the Boston Bruins who will be looking to redeem themselves after taking a 7-2 loss to the Islanders last night. The New York Rangers have had an extra day of rest, but have won only two of their last seven games and they are 3-11 in their last 14 games as an underdog. Bruins are 9-3 in their last 12 vs. a team with a losing record and 10-4 in their last 14 games as a favorite. Bruins are 6-0 in the last 6 meetings. 8* play on Boston Bruins. |

They've had time to rest and recover while the Sabres will be playing on no rest and their third game in four nights following a 3-2 loss at NY Islanders last night. Sabres are 1-4 in their last 5 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Sabres are 1-5 in their last 6 overall. Devils are 5-1 in their last 6 games as a favorite. Sabres are 3-8 in the last 11 meetings in New Jersey. 10* play on New Jersey Devils. |

8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE This looks like a great spot to back the Arizona Coyotes as they look to bounce back from a pair of losses, and from dropping four of their last five. They'll face a Ducks team that has scored a total of only four goals through three consecutive losses, and it has the second-worst goal per game average in the league at 1.8 gpg. The Yotes are better than they've shown in recent games, and they have won four of the last five when hosting the Ducks at Gila River Arena. 8* play on Arizona Coyotes. |

8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The New Jersey Devils are a solid 4-1-1 on the road, but this looks like a tough spot. They'll visit the Washingon Capitals who are coming off a disappointing 4-1 loss to the New York Rangers on Saturday. The Devils took a 3-2 loss to Buffalo yesterday, so they will also be playing on no rest. Washington is a lot better than it has shown in recent games, and I think we'll see a reaction here. Capitals are 15-7 in their last 22 games following a loss of 3 or more goals and the home team is 8-3 in the last 11 meetings between thes two clubs. 8* play on Washington Capitals. |

KNIGHTS VS AVS 10* TOP PLAY | OUTDOORS @ LAKE TAHOE | 3:00 PM ET The Vegas Golden Knights lost the first game of this series 3-2 at home on Tuesday. Golden Knights are 6-0 in their last 6 games playing on 3 or more days rest and 14-6 in their last 20 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. The Avs are listed as the home team for this one, but they won't have home ice advantage in this outdoor game that will take place on Lake Tahoe at the border of California and Nevada. Look for Vegas to get revenge today. 10* play on Vegas. |

02-18-21 | Predators v. Blue Jackets -123 | Top | 0-3 | Win | 100 | 10 h 39 m | Show |
*GAME OF THE YEAR ALERT* NHL CENTRAL REG SEASON BEST BET Absolutely love the Columbus Blue Jackets in this spot as they have had two full days to stew on a 7-3 beating they took by Carolina on Jan 15. They've been on the road for their last three games, and I expect a big outing from the Jackets here in the opener of a four-game homestand. The visiting Nashville Predators will also be rested after having two games against the Stars postponed, but they have struggled in recent games, winning only one of their last five. The Preds have now lost nine of the 13 games since opening the season with a two-game sweep against Columbus. The Jackets must be itching for revenge, and we can note that the Preds are only 1-5-0 away from home on the season. 10* play on Columbus Blue Jackets. |

02-17-21 | Jets v. Oilers -135 | 2-3 | Win | 100 | 15 h 42 m | Show | |
LATE NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Edmonton Oilers have won six of their last eight, and they had allowed only a total of three goals in their last three games prior to a 6-5 loss to the Winnipeg Jets Monday night. They get a chance for quick revenge when taking on the Jets again tonight, and I think we'll see a fired-up home team that is 6-2 in its last 8 after allowing 5 goals or more in its previous game. Despite their win Monday night, the Jets are only 4-10 in their last 14 games as a road underdog and they have dropped four of their last five coming off a win. 8* play on Edmonton Oilers. |

ISLANDERS @ SABRES 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Buffalo Sabres have not played a competitive game since a 5-3 home loss to the New Jersey Devils on Jan. 31 due to COVID-19 complications. Even for this contest they'll be shorthanded, and I think it's fair to expect them to come out rusty. They'll face a red hot NY Islanders team that has won three of its last four and picked up points in six straight games. 8* play on New York Islanders. |

02-15-21 | Blues v. Coyotes +113 | Top | 0-1 | Win | 113 | 12 h 51 m | Show |
*MAJOR WAGER ALERT* TOP-RATED 10* NHL GAME OF THE WEEK I think we are getting a more than fair price on the Arizona Coyotes as a home dog to St. Louis Blues Monday night. The Blues are coming off back-to-back wins over Arizona, but the teams are heading into the finale of this seven-game series tied at three apiece. These two teams are very evenly matched, but the Yotes should be the more fired up team after dropping the last two games, both home at Gila River Arena none the less. 10* play on Arizona Coyotes. |

02-13-21 | Lightning -140 v. Panthers | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 16 h 52 m | Show | |
SATURDAY NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Florida Panthers won the first of three straight games against the Tampa Bay Lightning by a final score of 5-2 a couple of days ago. The Lightning had won six straight headings into the series, and I think we're getting a more than reasonable price on TB to take the middle game. The backup netminders are expected to get the nod Saturday, and then the Lightning have an advantage with Curtis McElhinney over Panthers' Chris Driedger. Lightning are 47-18 in their last 65 games following a loss of 3 or more goals and 19-7 in their last 26 after allowing 5 goals or more in their previous game. 8* play on Tampa Bay Lightning. |

*BIG BET ALERT* TOP-RATED 10* NHL GAME OF THE WEEK (SIDE) The Montreal Canadiens have won six of their last eight games. They average a league-best 4.0 goals per game and have also locked down on defense in recent games. The Toronto Maple Leafs have won three straight and seven of their last eight, but they looked sluggish and recorded only 19 shots in a 3-1 win over Vancouver last time out. Maple Leafs are 4-9 in their last 13 games as a road underdog. Maple Leafs are 6-14 in their last 20 games as an underdog. Canadiens are 6-2 in their last 8 games as a favorite. Maple Leafs are 3-11 in the last 14 meetings in Montreal. 10* play on Montreal Canadiens. |

LATE NIGHT 8* NHL | SHARKS VS KINGS MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Los Angeles Kings are only 1-2-2 home at Staples Center on the season. They've lost four straight overall and the injury list is not a pretty sight. The San Jose Sharks are 4-5-1 despite not playing a single home game yet due to COVID-19 restrictions in Santa Clara County. They should be ready to go off following back-to-back shootout losses to Anaheim and they have had an extra day of rest compared to the Kings. 8* play on San Jose Sharks. |

*MAJOR WAGER ALERT* NHL CENTRAL GAME OF THE MONTH | 10* TOP PLAY The Chicago Blackhawks have won three of their last four and picked up their first road win of the season with a 2-1 OT triumph here at Dallas on Sunday. In other words, good spot to fade Chicago in this game. That loss was the Stars' first setback home at American Airlines Center for the year. "We left a point on the board today, in my opinion," Dallas coach Rick Bowness said Sunday, "and we've got to get it back on Tuesday night." I like the home team to bounce back with a big game tonight. Blackhawks are 4-12 in their last 16 games as an underdog. Blackhawks are 5-17 in their last 22 games as a road underdog. Stars are 5-1 in their last 6 games as a home favorite. Stars are 7-2 in their last 9 games as a favorite. 10* play on Dallas Stars. |

MONDAY NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE Love the St. Louis Blues here in the finale of a four-game set against Arizona. The Blues won the first contest on Tuesday, but Arizona prevailed 4-3 on Thursday and 3-1 on Saturday, despite being outshot in both games. We can also note that this was the first time the Yotes won consecutive games this season and they are only 6-21 in their last 27 road games. The Blues should be mighty fired up to ensure a split of this set. "I do believe that we're better, and you see these guys again on Monday, and then again," Blues captain Ryan O'Reilly said. "And I think we can beat them. We have to take it one game at a time, even break it down more to one period at a time. We can prove we're a better team than them." 8* play on St. Louis Blues. |

ISLANDERS VS RANGERS 8* NHL BOOKIE BOMBER The New York Isladners snapped an ugly five-game losing streak with a 4-3 win over Pittsburgh last time out. It's worth noting that even during their slide, the Isles outshot their opponent in four of the five games. These two teams split a two game series back on Jan 14 and Jan 16. Considering this is a rivalry game, I think the value is on the dog. 8* play on New York Islanders. |

02-07-21 | Blackhawks v. Stars -160 | 2-1 | Loss | -160 | 10 h 21 m | Show | |
8* SUPER BOWL SUNDAY NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Dallas Stars are a rather hefty favorite over the Chicago Blackhawks, but I still think they are worth the price. Dallas is a solid 5-2-1 on the season (undefeated 4-0-0 at home) while averaging a league-best 4.0 goals per game. This looks like a favorable spot to back the Stars who will be looking to bounce back from a loss to Columbus. Chicago on the other hand has won only four of 12 games on the season, one most recently when it defeated Carolina 6-4. Blackhawks are 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win. Blackhawks are 4-17 in their last 21 games as a road underdog. Blackhawks are 2-9 in their last 11 games as an underdog. Stars are 5-0 in their last 5 games as a home favorite. Stars are 7-1 in their last 8 games as a favorite. 8* play on Dallas. |

HURRICANES @ BLUE JACKETS 8* NHL BOOKIE BA$HER The Carolina Hurricanes had won five straight prior to a disappointing 6-4 loss at Chicago on Thursday. They are still a solid 6-2 in their last 8 games as a road favorite, and I like the price we get on the Canes when they visit Columbus on Sunday. The Blue Jackets have been inconsistent, and their 5-4-3 record does not impress me. The Jackets are coming off a 4-3 win as an underdog against Dallas, but they are 1-7 in their last 8 games following a win. 8* play on Carolina. |

TOP-RATED 10* FLAMES VS JETS NHL BIG HITTER The Winnipeg Jets and the Calgary Flames are tied at 1-1 heading into the finale of this three-game series. Winnipeg won the last meeting, but that was with a pair of backup goalies in net for both teams. That means Jacob Markstrom between the sticks for the Flames, and he's a hot 4-2-1 with a 2.27 GAA on the season. Flames are 10-3 in their last 13 games as a favorite. Flames are 7-3 in their last 10 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Jets are 4-10 in their last 14 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. Jets are 4-14 in their last 18 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Jets are 2-5 in their last 7 games following a win. 10* play on Calgary Flames.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE The Boston Bruins have only one loss in regulation this season. They outscored the Flyers 11-5 through a two-game sweep in Boston on Jan 21 and 23, and I like them to get the job done here in Philly Wednesday night. While the Flyers are 7-2-1 on the season, note that they have been outshot in nine of those 10 games, and they rank 29th in shots for and 31st in shots against. 8* play on Boston. |

TUESDAY NIGHT 8* NHL MONEYLINE MASSACRE Good spot to back the Avs to avenge a 4-3 OT loss at Minnesota just a couple of days ago. Wild are 2-5 in their last seven games off a win. Avs have four losses on the season and have bounced back with a win following the previous three. 8* play on Colorado. |

PENGUINS VS RANGERS 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The New York Rangers have only two wins on the season, but note that five of their six losses were one-goal affairs.

SUPER EARLY DEVILS VS SABRES 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Sabres won yesterday's matchup with the Devils in a shootout. The Devils have dropped three straight and they are 2-5 in their last seven games following OT on the previous day. The Sabres are 3-0-2 since a 1-3-0 start to the season. The Devils are allowing 32.1 shots per game, and I don't see them slowing down a Buffalo team that has scored three goals or more in four of its last five games. 8* play on Buffalo. |

01-30-21 | Blues -163 v. Ducks | 6-1 | Win | 100 | 22 h 29 m | Show | |
*BAILOUT PLAY* LATE NIGHT 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER Good spot to back the Blues who have had plenty of time to rest and prepare for this game since a shootout win at Vegas on Jan 26. The Blues have struggled on the defensive end in the early goings of the season, but note that a good portion of the goals (11 of 26) have been conceded while shorthanded. On 5v5, the Blues have been one of the best teams in the league on both ends of the ice and they average a solid 3.0 gpg despite converting on only 9% of their power play opportunities. The Ducks' have scored only 14 goals in eight games overall and their power play is the worst in the league at 5.6%. I don't see the Ducks keeping pace with a well-rested Blues team. 8* play on St. Louis Blues. |

BLUE JACKETS VS BLACKHAWKS 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Blackhawks have only two wins in eight games, but both came home at United Center where they are undefeated on the season. For this game, they've had a day of rest unlike the Blue Jackets who are coming off a shootout win against Florida on Thursday. Blue Jackets are 1-5 in their last 6 games playing on 0 days rest. Blue Jackets are 1-6 in their last 7 in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Blue Jackets are 1-4 in their last 5 games as a road favorite. Blackhawks are 6-1 in their last 7 home games. Blackhawks are 5-2 in their last 7 games as a home underdog. Blue Jackets are 2-10 in the last 12 meetings in Chicago. 8* play on Chicago Blackhawks. |

They lost the first contest of this two-game set 1-0 but outshot the Ducks 31-24. Desperation breeds motivation, and I think Arizona will be the hungrier team and get rewarded for it in this one. Home team is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. 8* play on Arizona Coyotes. |

This looks like a great time to fade them, following a big effort in a 6-3 win over the Blues on Sunday. The Wild meanwhile will be looking to bounce back from a 5-3 loss at San Jose. Kings are 2-5 in their last 7 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game. Kings are 17-41 in their last 58 games as a road underdog. Wild are 5-0 in their last 5 after allowing 5 goals or more in their previous game. Kings are 1-7 in the last 8 meetings in Minnesota. 10* play on Minnesota. |

SENS VS CANUCKS 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Sens have won just one of five games. They have allowed four goals or more in each of their last three games, and here they'll face a Vancouver team that has scored 11 goals through its last three games. Admittedly, both sides have had a rough start to the season, but the Nucks have enough talent to go on a run once in a while. The Senators are a notoriously poor road team. They are 11-41 in their last 52 games as a road underdog and 3-9 in the last 12 meetings in Vancouver. 8* play on Vancouver. |

*BIG BET ALERT* NHL EAST GAME OF THE MONTH - 10* TOP PLAY The Buffalo Sabres are 1-3-1 on the season. All their losses have come to the Washington Capitals, most recently a 4-3 OT setback Friday night. The Caps are 3-0-2 on the season but four of their five games being decided by a single goal, and three have gone past regulation. The Caps will be shorthanded with star captain Alex Ovechkin, No. 1 goaltender Ilya Samsonov, forward Evgeny Kuznetsov and defenseman Dmitry Orlov all ruled out because of NHL COVID-19 protocols. I fully expect the Sabres to be the more motivated of the two sides in this one. 10* play on Buffalo. |

SUPER EARLY RED WINGS VS BLACKHAWKS MATINEE MASSACRE ~ 12:30 ET START The Blackhawks defeated Detroit 4-1 Friday night for their first win of the season. I like the Red Wings to earn a split of this doubleheader with a win today. The Hawks are struggling to create chances on 5-vs-5. Detroit outshot them 31-27, and if the Red Wings can just stay out of the penalty box and be more efficient on the man advantage themselves (0-for-5 in the first game) they'll win this one comfortably. 8* play on Detroit. |

EARLY 8* NHL BOOKIE BOMBER - MUST WIN This is juiced up, but I still like the price we get on the Lightning to remain undefeated after this game. They won the first game of this home-then-home in OT and controlled the game, outshooting the Jackets 37 to 25. Columbus has only one win on the season and has yet to score more than three goals in a game. The Lightning are averaging 4.3 gpg while allowing only 1.7 gpg. Blue Jackets are 5-16 in their last 21 games as an underdog. Lightning are 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. 8* play on Tampa Bay Lightning. |

01-22-21 | Oilers v. Maple Leafs -140 | Top | 2-4 | Win | 100 | 16 h 10 m | Show |
TOP-RATED 10* NHL NORTH GAME OF THE MONTH This looks like a great spot to back the Leafs to bounce back from a 3-1 loss to the Oilers in the opener of this home-then-home doubleheader. Toronto outshot the Oilers 26-21 in the first game and they own a winning record on the season (3-2-0) while Edmonton has a losing record (2-3-0). Toronto sniper Auston Matthews missed practice yesterday; "He just wasn't feeling great coming off the game," Leafs head coach Sheldon Keefe said. "We'll have an update [Friday] morning." If Matthews plays, great. If not, I expect the rest of the Leafs to step it up a notch and take more responsibility in the absence of their best player, particularly coming off a loss. Oilers are 2-7 in the last 9 meetings in Toronto. The favorite is 12-3 in the last 15 meetings. 10* play on Toronto. |

8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Islanders have won two of three on the season and shut out the Bruins last time out. They have yet to heat up on the power play, but this looks like a good time as any against a Devils side that has allowed four goals in three games a man down. Also note that they have had an extra day of rest compared to the Devils who are 2-10 in the last 12 meetings in New York. 8* play on New York Islanders. |

TOP-RATED 10* NHL PLAY OF THE DAY The Flyers have opened the season with three wins in four games, but here they'll face a triggered Boston team coming off a pair of losses. The Bruins are never easy to beat at TD Garden, and they have won 12 of the last 17 when hosting Philly. 10* play on Boston Bruins. |

OILERS VS MAPLE LEAFS 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Oilers are off to a poor start, and defense has been the main issue with 15 goals allowed in four games. Here they'll face a Toronto team that has scored 14 goals in four games, and not fewer than three in any game. The Leafs have gone an impressive 6-for-14 (43%) on the power play while Edmonton has been among the worst in the league, going only 2-for-18 with the extra attacker. The Oilers are a fade in my book until they show they've turned a corner. 8* play on Toronto. |

CAPS @ PENS 8* NHL BOOKIE BREAKER - GUARANTEED TO WIN The Pittsburgh Penguins opened this doubleheader with a 4-3 shootout triumph, their first win of the season. The Washington Capitals had opened the year with a pair of victories over Buffalo and are still undefeated in regulation. The Pens are struggling to create quality goalscoring opportunities, and I like the Caps to bounce back and take this one. 8* play on Washington. |

TOP-RATED 10* NHL PLAY OF THE DAY - MUST WIN The Buffalo Sabres are coming off a dominant 6-1 in Game 1 of this doubleheader for their first win of the season. The up to that point undefeated Flyers came out flat as a pancake without reigning Selke Trophy Winner Sean Couturier (out injured) and were outshot 37-22. I think the loss sets up a nice bounce back spot tonight. 10* play on Philadelphia Flyers. |

SUPER EARLY JACKETS @ RED WINGS 8* MLK DAY BOOKIE BU$TER The Detroit Red Wings are 1-1 after splitting a couple of decisions with Carolina. They were however outshot in both contests by a wide margin, Columbus is 0-2 with a pair of losses to Nashville, but the team has averaged 37 shots on goal. "I'm looking at some of the encouraging stuff we did (Saturday)," Columbus head coach John Tortorella said. "We developed 25 scoring chances. Do we need to clean up some stuff? Sure, but I'm encouraged by a lot of different things with our hockey club." Blue Jackets are 21-6 in the last 27 meetings. 8* play on Columbus. |

*MAJOR WAGER ALERT* NHL GAME OF THE WEEK - 10* TOP PLAY Good spot to back the Pens to pick up their first win of the season here in their home opener after dropping two games at Philadelphia. They take on a Washington team perhaps a bit too comfortable for their own good coming off wins against Buffalo. Last time out, the Penguins were held to two goals, but they are 15-6 in their last 21 after scoring two goals or fewer in their previous game. 10* play on Pittsburgh Penguins. |

PENGUINS @ FLYERS 8* NHL BOOKIE BREAKER The Flyers opened the season with a dominant 6-3 win over Pittsburgh. They outshot the Pens 34-25 while going 2-for-3 on the power play, and is there really any reason to believe that we'll see a different result in this one? Flyers are 24-9 in their last 33 home games. Penguins are 2-8 in their last 10 road games. Home team is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. 8* play on Philadelphia Flyers. |

SHARKS @ COYOTES 8* NHL BOOKIE BU$TER The Coyotes have arguably the best netminder duo in the league in Darcy Kuemper and backup Antti Raanta. The Sharks on the other hand do not even have a real ace, and their No. option Martin Jones posted a 4-11-2 record with 3.18 GAA on the road last season. The goaltending situation alone is enough to warrant a play on Arizona. 8* play on Arizona Coyotes. |

NHL 3-PACK OILERS Interesting situation as the Nucks and the Oilers will clash on back-to-back nights. They combined for eigth goals last night, and that was with Holtby and Koskinen in net. We might see the backups between the pipes for this one, and I expect another high-scoring affair. In addition to the over, I also like Edmonton to avenge last night's 5-3 loss. 8* play on Edmonton Oilers. |

NHL 3-PACK - NUCKS @ OILERS The Canucks are 2-6 in the last eight meetings in Edmonton, and I think their struggles continue against a more talented Oilers side. The Oilers a lot of offensive firepower while the Nucks lack depth on the forward side. 8* play on Edmonton Oilers. |

NHL 3-PACK - HABS @ LEAFS The Habs look stronger than last season, but so does Toronto as well after adding Joe Thornton, Zach Bogosian, Wayne Simmonds, T.J. Brodie, Jimmy Vesey, Alexander Barabanov and Mikko Lehtonen. Their experience in combination with the already existing talent in this Leafs team will be interesting to watch. Home team is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings 8* play on Toronto Maple Leafs. |

PENGUINS @ FLYERS 8* NHL OPENING NIGHT BOOKIE BREAKER The Penguins have an old core of players. While experience is important, I think they'll need a couple of games to get back in the tempo. The Flyers have a younger team and should come out with more energy. Flyers are 21-7 in their last 28 games as a home favorite. Flyers are 23-9 in their last 32 home games. Penguins are 1-4 in their last 5 games as a road underdog. Home team is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings. 8* play on Philadelphia Flyers. |

LIGHTNING VS STARS STANLEY CUP FINALS GAME 6 BOOKIE BU$TER The Tampa Bay had Dallas by the ropes after reeling off three straight wins since dropping the opener of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Stars managed to stay alive and force a Game 6 with a 3-2 double OT win last time out, but they're still in a very tough spot as Tampa needs just one more win to lift the cup. Tampa captain Steven Stamkos will miss the rest of the playoffs, but note that the Lightning have never lost a series in which they have held a 3-1 lead and they are a perfect 6-0 following a loss in the playoffs this season. I just think this is too much of an uphill battle for the Stars and I don't see them surviving another game. 8* play on Tampa Bay Lightning. |

LIGHTNING VS STARS STANLEY CUP FINALS GAME 3 POWER PLAY The Tampa Bay Lightning lost Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals, but they bounced right back to tie the series with a 3-2 win in the second game. It seemingly took a game for them to figure the Stars out and they looked a lot more comfortable than the scoreline would suggest last time out. The Stars aggression won them the first game, but it cost them in Game 2 as the Lightning were sharper on special teams, going 2-for-4 on the man advantage while killing off four of five penalties. I like the Lightning with the momentum here in Game 3. 8* play on Tampa Bay Lightning. |

STANLEY CUP FINALS GAME 2 BOOKIE BLA$TER The Dallas Stars won the first game of the Stanley Cup Finals, but I like the Lightning to bounce back and even the score with a win in Game 2. They outshot the Stars 36-20 but just couldn't find the net. The Lightning are 46-17 in their last 63 games following a loss of 3 or more goals and there is no way they'll get caught off guard by the Stars two games in a row. 8* play on Tampa Bay Lightning. |

STARS VS KNIGHTS WESTERN CONF FINALS GAME 2 BOOKIE BLA$TER The Dallas Stars won Game 1 of the Western Conference finals by scoring the only goal in the contest. They had lost six of the last seven head-to-head matchups with Vegas prior to that win and I like the Knights to get back to their winning ways against Stars to tie this series at 1-1. Getting shut out can't sit right with Vegas who normally has no problem putting its opponent's goalie under pressure and eventually light up the lamp. I'm counting on the Knights to bounce back and don't mind laying the juice. 8* play on Vegas Golden Knights. |
