Canucks ML

The Canucks are looking for their first win versus the Devils since 2014 but are red hot of late. They’re 7 and 3 in their last 10 and averaging 4 goals a game during that stretch.

Vancouver is guided by a rejuvenated offense that starts with their 2 young stars in Quinn Hughes and Elias Pettersson. On defense, Hughes has 7 points in his last 5 while up front Pettersson has hit the scoresheet 14 times over his last 8 games. On special teams, they have an improving power play that is ranked 13th in the league. 

On the flip side, New Jersey is ranked 23rd on the man-advantage and are 3-7 in their last 10 – giving up over 4 goals per contest.  Vancouver come into the match-up riding a 3 game win streak that includes a 5-2 win a MSG Sunday night. Look for the Canucks to sweep the Hudson River series.

Canucks ML (+125) 

Both teams are 6-3-1 in their last 10 but the Rangers are coming off a shutout loss in Pittsburgh Saturday and will most likely start backup Alexandar Georgiev in net. While travel isn’t a big concern, playing back to back games isn’t easy, especially when your opponent has had a couple days rest. 

Speaking of the Canucks, they’ve won 2 straight, including breaking Calgary's 10 game win streak by a 7-1 score. Vancouver has 5 double digit goal scorers, including J.T. Miller who has 20 on the year while averaging over a point a game. It could be a showcase game for Miller who has been rumored as trade bait for the Rangers.  He’s been on fire of late, 11 points in his last 5 games while teammate Elias Pettersson has 10 in that span. 

A trend of note, Vancouver has won 4 straight vs the Rangers, including a 3-2 win back in November.

It's the battle of Southern California between two familiar foes separated by just 2 points. The Kings have won 3 straight and have been solid away from home, taking their last 5 on the road. They've quietly been one of the hotter teams in the league, going 7-1-2 over their last 10 and averaging just over 3 goals a game.

Anaheim is coming off of 2 straight wins, they haven't won 3 straight since November.  The Ducks have struggled with pucks on net – averaging less than 30 a game while the Kings are keeping opposing netminders busy, averaging over 35 shots on goal.

FRIDAY 7* NHL ML PLAY

Carolina -110

The Hurricanes are in a nice situational spot.

Florida has had a 15 day layoff and they'll have a ton of rust to shake off here. That isn't the most ideal situation when you have to deal with Carolina. The Hurricanes are a super tough team to beat in general, but when they're at home it gets even harder.

The Canes are a solid 16-4-1-0 at home this season and get a Florida team that is 9-7-2-3 on the road. Look for them to use the layoff that Florida had as an advantage in this one.

Edmonton +100

This is a nice situational spot for the Oilers. 

Washington comes in off an overtime win last night against the Penguins. It was a hard fought battle that saw them play a very physical game. In that game, they managed to also see starting goaltender Vitek Vanecek get injured. He's unlikely to play the back to back here which is a huge loss for them.

Some trends to note. Oilers are 4-1 in their last 5 overall.  Capitals are 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win.

Back Edmonton.

Phili meanwhile needs to find a way to win. They enter on a slide right now, but this team is far better than they've showcased over the past few weeks.

Philadelphia has also been great against Western Conference foes. Coming into Friday, they are a solid 10-4 in their last 14 games against the conference. Look for that to continue here on Saturday.

Winnipeg hasn't nearly been as dominant on the road as they've been at home this season. Edmonton meanwhile is 6-1 on home ice and playing really well overall. 

They offer one of the most dominant attacks in the NHL, as they love to push the tempo on teams. Look for them to do that here against Winnipeg as the Jets will be overwhelmed.

We're on the Canucks at home here.

Anaheim has played well thus far, but it's mostly been at home this season. This team is still very much overachieving as they were one of the worst in the NHL last year.

They don't have the weapons some of these teams have and Vancouver should be able to expose that here. Look for the Canucks to win the possession battle and pepper the Anaheim net. The 2nd and 3rd chances will be the difference here.

The Stars have value here on the road as slight favorites.

Dallas has fared well in this situational spot. They have cashed in 4 of the last 5 meetings with Columbus for starters. 

On top of that, they have done exceptionally well against the Metro division. Coming into Monday, the Stars have gone 8-2 in their last 10 overall against the division. Look for that to continue here as the Blue Jackets have no momentum on their side after a 5-1 loss on Saturday to Carolina.

We're getting a generous price here on the Flames Thursday.

Calgary comes in winless, but they very easily could have came away with a win last time out against Anaheim. This Flames team is expected to compete amongst the playoff contenders given their offensive firepower.

While Detroit has 2 wins thus far, this team just has far too many flaws on both sides of the puck. Look for Calgary to exploit those here on Thursday.

Montreal has the value here at plus money. 

This is it for the Canadiens. This is a must win as going down 3-0 is a just too big of a mountain to climb. The Canadiens have had their backs against the wall this postseason continuously and they're going to come out firing at home here.

Tampa Bay and New York battle in Game 7, but with home ice, the Lightning have the edge. The Islanders come into Friday winners in 4 of the last 14 games inside this building. 

Tampa Bay is the overall better team, as they've shown that at times too. Look for them to get out of the gates early, as the Islanders have not forgotten the 8-0 beatdown that occurred earlier this week inside this building.

Colorado has the value here at plus money. The Avs are still the better team overall and they need a similar start to Game 5, where they went up 2-0. Grabbing a lead and adding to it is the key for Colorado as they have been at their best this season when they can score in bunches. 

Look for them to come out aggressive here on Thursday, knowing they cannot fall behind.

After falling in Game 3, Game 4 featured just a crazy explosion of goals from the 2nd period on. 

Tampa Bay's offense is just far too much here. They have too many weapons that can beat teams and they have overwhelmed this Hurricanes defense. Look for that to continue here as we should see them continue to push the tempo on Carolina and pressure the net. 

Some trends to note. Lightning are 5-2 in their last 7 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game. Lightning are 51-23 in their last 74 games playing on 2 days rest.

Back Tampa Bay.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Tuesday 9* NHL ML Play

New York Islanders +170

This is just too big of a price in this spot. 

New York and Boston have gone toe to toe all series long and have been just about as even as it can be. 

With the series at 2-2, getting a price like this is worth it. 

The key for the Islanders has been their ability to control the puck and win the possession battle. They did that in Game 4 as they were on the attack, especially in the 3rd period. Look for them to do that once again here as this one can go either way.

Some trends to note. Islanders are 5-1 in their last 6 when their opponent scores 2 goals or less in their previous game. Islanders are 5-2 in their last 7 overall.

Back New York.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Monday 8* NHL ML Play

Colorado -104

The Avs have the value here.

Colorado nearly took a 3-0 lead, but two late Vegas goals flipped the script on them. Still, they have had a majority of control this series and can take a 3-1 lead heading home here on Sunday. 

The Avs have won 5 of their last 6 road games and are 4-0 on Sundays in their last 4. 

Look for them to have the edge and wear down this Vegas team.

Some trends to note. Avalanche are 47-13 in their last 60 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. Avalanche are 38-13 in their last 51 overall.

Back Colorado.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Sunday 8* NHL ML Play

Winnipeg +115

The Jets have value at plus money here. 

It is do or die for them as they enter play on Sunday. Down 2-0, they must find way to rebound here. 

They haven't been far off in this series and they should come out with a lot of purpose here. Look for them to push the tempo on Montreal, and crash the net as they are at their best when they are putting constant pressure on. 

Some trends to note. Jets are 7-0 in their last 7 games as a road underdog. Jets are 6-2 in their last 8 overall.

Back Winnipeg.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Sunday 9* NHL ML Play

Tampa Bay -153

We backed Carolina in Game 3 and they got themselves back in the series. 

Now, we're on the Lightning to take a 3-1 lead. Tampa Bay dominated the 3rd period in a 2-2 game, but just couldn't find the net. Had it not been for a penalty, they would have continued that in overtime as well.

Look for the Lightning to push the tempo on Carolina here and pepper the net. They are their best when they can beat teams with multiple attempts per possession.

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 2-6 in their last 8 playoff games as an underdog. Hurricanes are 1-4 in their last 5 road games.

Back Tampa Bay.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Saturday 9* NHL ML Play

Colorado -115

The Avs have value here.

Vegas had their chance to steal a game on the road, but flopped in overtime thanks to a bad timed penalty. 

Now, they will look to avoid an awful 3-0 gap here on Friday night. Colorado has just had Vegas' number and they're doing it with a few different factors. It starts offensively where they are controlling the puck in the Vegas zone and putting on a lot of pressure. 

Combine that with the Avs ability to not allow 2nd chances defensively off rebounds and they have the edge here with all the momentum they've collected.

Some trends to note. Avalanche are 41-13 in their last 54 games as a favorite. Avalanche are 42-14 in their last 56 overall.

Back Colorado.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Friday 9* NHL ML Play

Carolina +146

This line is too nice to pass up on.

Carolina isn't far off from Tampa Bay and this is pretty much a do or die moment for them. 

The Canes are 7-1 on their last 8 Thursday affairs as they seem to play well as the weeks go on. Look for them to come out aggressive here, knowing they have to take the crowd out of this one early. Expect plenty of shots on net and for them to look for 2nd and 3rd chances. 

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 22-8 in their last 30 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game. Hurricanes are 8-3 in their last 11 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game.

Thursday 8* NHL ML Play

Winnipeg -136

The Jets are worth the price here at home.

Both teams come in off first round upsets and Winnipeg sits here with the value in Game 1.

The Jets have had the Canadiens number as of late, winning in 7 of the last 10 matchups. Despite their frantic 3-1 comeback, Montreal has still struggled following wins. They are just  6-15 in their last 21 games following a win.

Look for Winnipeg to continue their solid play on both ends of the ice here, controlling the pace in this one.

Some trends to note. Canadiens are 10-26 in their last 36 Wednesday games. Canadiens are 2-8 in their last 10 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game.

Back Winnipeg.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 9* NHL ML Play

Carolina -109

After backing Tampa Bay in Game 1, we're on the other side here in Game 2.

Carolina is still a solid home backing even despite losing Game 1 in this building. They have rarely let home losses pile up and they are a tough team to crack still overall. 

The Canes have hit in 23 of their last 32 home games as they typically bounce back in a big way. Look for them to be on the attack here on Tuesday night as they will look to get out early.

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 24-8 in their last 32 playoff games as a favorite. Hurricanes are 20-7 in their last 27 Tuesday games.

Back Carolina.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Tuesday 9* NHL ML Play

Vegas +150 

The Golden Knights are worth the move at this price.  Vegas went to 7 games and took down Minnesota, while Colorado has been off for a while after their first round sweep.  

The layoff may hurt this Colorado team. Rust will be a thing to watch as Vegas comes in with momentum after their Game 7 win.

Look for Vegas to get out of the gates early and push the tempo on Colorado, who will look to find their feet after the long layoff. 

Some trends to note. Golden Knights are 4-1 in their last 5 road games. Golden Knights are 36-12 in their last 48 Sunday games. 

Back Vegas. 

Good Luck, Razor Ray. 

Sunday 8* NHL ML Play

Carolina -135

This series has been so tightly played, but it's time for Carolina to break that trend here. The home team has won every game this series and now Carolina has a chance to steal one on the road and close the series out.

Nashville will have their backs against the wall all night here, causing them to have a ton of issues when it comes to the pressure. 

Look for Carolina to be in attack mode and crash the net in this one. 

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 6-1 in their last 7 Thursday games. Hurricanes are 20-6 in their last 26 playoff games as a favorite.

Back Carolina.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Thursday 9* NHL ML Play

Vegas -135

The Golden Knights will look to close things out again on Wednesday. 

Vegas fell to Minnesota, at home, in a 4-2 loss as they just fell behind early and couldn't get out of the hole.

Still, the ball is in Vegas' court right now as they have gone 19-7 over their last 26 road contests. This is their chance to avoid a pressure filled Game 7, which will give them a ton of motivation to take the air out of the Wild early on in this one. 

Some trends to note. Golden Knights are 4-1 in their last 5 games playing on 1 days rest. Golden Knights are 40-14 in their last 54 games as a favorite.

Back Vegas.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 10* NHL ML TOP PLAY

Tampa Bay -150

The Lightning are worth the price here. Despite losing in Game 5, they still come home for a Game 6 with a chance to clinch. 

This team has dominated Florida at home. They have cashed in 19 of the last 26 head to head meetings here. 

Tampa Bay also loves the quick turnaround. The Lightning have gone 59-22 in their last 81 games playing on 1 days rest.

Wednesday 8* NHL ML Play

Pittsburgh -110

The Penguins will look to send the series back to Pittsburgh for a Game 7 here on Wednesday. 

Pittsburgh flopped in overtime on Monday night and now have their backs against the wall. This team has thrived in situations like this though. They are 11-4 in their last 15 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. Combine that with them being 44-21 in their last 65 games playing on 1 days rest and the value sits with them here. 

Expect the Penguins to come out with some fire, knowing they can't fall behind early.

Some trends to note. Penguins are 7-2 in the last 9 meetings. Penguins are 27-12 in their last 39 overall.

Back Pittsburgh.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 9* NHL ML Play

Florida -102

The Panthers will look to stay alive and force a Game 6 on Monday night.

Florida has been blitzed by this Tampa Bay offense, but coming back home is what they need. They have won 11 of their last 14 home games as this team plays much better in front of their home crowd. 

With their backs against the wall, expect the Panthers to come out with aggression and pepper the lightning net. 

Some trends to note. Panthers are 5-2 in their last 7 games playing on 1 days rest. Panthers are 7-3 in their last 10 overall.

Back Florida.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Monday 8* NHL ML Play

Pittsburgh -133

The Pens have value at home in Game 5. 

The series sits at 2-2 with this one returning to Pittsburgh. The Penguins haven't even see their stars step up in a big way yet, which leads us to believe and Crosby and Malkin will come alive here.

The Penguins have been a solid home ice team all season and this is a game where they can come out and make a statement. 

Some trends to note. Islanders are 2-6 in their last 8 games as an underdog. Islanders are 1-4 in their last 5 games following a win.

Back Pittsburgh.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Monday 9* NHL ML Play

Edmonton -127

The Oilers have the value here on Sunday. 

Edmonton has their backs against the wall here as they trail 2-0 to surprising Winnipeg. 

However, this is a solid price to grab on a team that is pretty much in a must win spot. Look for the Oilers to be the aggressor here and come out with a lot of fire. They rarely saw themselves in the midst of losing streaks during the season and this will be the perfect bounce back spot. 

Some trends to note. Oilers are 13-3 in their last 16 games as a road favorite. Oilers are 6-2 in their last 8 overall.

Sunday 9* NHL ML Play

Vegas -111

We're back on Vegas here on Saturday.

After going down 2-0, the Golden Knights stormed back for 5 straight goals en route to a 5-2 win in Game 3. 

They just put on a relentless attack from start to finish and pushed the tempo on Minnesota all game long. Look for that to repeat here as they have a clear advantage when it comes to the offensive end. They can hit you with so many different weapons and from so many different angles. 

Some trends to note. Golden Knights are 18-5 in their last 23 games as a road favorite. Golden Knights are 12-4 in their last 16 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game.

New York Islanders -106

The Islanders are the move on Saturday in Game 4. 

We've backed Pittsburgh a few times in this series already, but we are going with the Islanders to even things up. 

New York has dropped just 8 of their last 29 home games and rarely let losses turn into multiple. Look for them to come out with the aggression here, knowing they have to get out early on this Pittsburgh team.

Some trends to note. Islanders are 6-2 in their last 8 Saturday games. Home team is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.

Back New York.

Tampa Bay had their chance to go up 3-0 but blew a lead in the 3rd period and eventually fell in Overtime. 

Despite that, the ball is still in their court with home ice. Tampa Bay is still 42-17 in their last 59 home games and 41-17 in their last 58 games as a home favorite. Look for them to bounce back as they have been a solid backing when playing on 1 days of rest.

Edmonton -148

The Oilers are in full bounce back mode here. 

After grabbing the lead in Game 1, they relinquished it rather quickly in what was eventually a 4-1 loss. Despite the loss, their track record against the Jets is still worth noting here.

Edmonton has gone 6-1 in the last 7 meetings as they should still have plenty of confidence here.

Look for McDavid to step up here on Friday as he is the heartbeat to this team's success. 

Soem trends to note. Oilers are 6-2 in their last 8 overall. Oilers are 21-7 in their last 28 games playing on 1 days rest.

Carolina -133

The Hurricanes have value in Game 3.

The Canes took care of business at home in dominant fashion over the first two games as they controlled everything. 

Now, they head into Nashville with a chance to really bury the Predators. 

Carolina is just too powerful offensively and have shown the ability to not allow anything easy on the defensive end. It's been one and done for the Preds offensive chances and these chances have been hard to come by for them. Expect that to continue here on Friday.

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 19-7 in the last 26 meetings. Hurricanes are 6-2 in the last 8 meetings in Nashville.

Back Carolina.

Vegas Golden Knights -125

We're on the Knights here. 

Vegas evened the series up with a 3-1 win over the Wild on Tuesday night. 

The Knights dominated on the defensive end, not allowing anything easy for Minnesota. The key was not allowing 2nd or 3rd opportunities off rebounds, which is going to be a huge topic in Game 3. 

Look for Vegas to control the tempo in this one, as they are at their best when they can win the possession game.

Some trends to note. Golden Knights are 8-2 in their last 10 road games. Golden Knights are 17-5 in their last 22 games as a road favorite.

Thursday *RARE* 10* NHL ML TOP PLAY

Pittsburgh Penguins -110

The Penguins are the move at this price. 

Pittsburgh evened the series up at 1-1 as now they head to New York for Games 3 and 4. Pittsburgh has certainly been the better of the two as of late and the Penguins have actually done exceptionally well in this head to head series. They have cashed in 7 of the last 9 meetings between these two clubs. 

Look for them to get out early in this one as this will be a scrappy game that gives the edge to the Pens given their offensive explosiveness.

Some trends to note. Penguins are 13-5 in their last 18 vs. a team with a winning record. Penguins are 27-11 in their last 38 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game.

Tampa Bay -150

The Lightning have complete control of this series. They have taken the first two games and now return home to try and finish the job. 

Tampa Bay has done it with exceptional offense as they just have so many weapons that can cause a lot of havoc. Their ability to attack the net and put the constant pressure on has this Panthers team struggling mightily. 

Florida has dropped 19 of the last 26 meetings in Tampa Bay and are just 6-14 overall in the last 20 contests between these two clubs.

Some trends to note. Lightning are 42-16 in their last 58 home games. Lightning are 41-16 in their last 57 games as a home favorite.

Edmonton -155

I hardly ever advise you play a moneyline greater than -150, but the Oilers are worth the juice here.

Edmonton has dominated this head to head series this season. The Jets have dropped 6 straight games against the Oilers and that will play a huge role in the mental game coming into Wednesday. 

Expect Edmonton to push the tempo and crash the net, which has been the recipe for success in their meetings with Winnipeg this season.

The Red Wings themselves are still a mess despite winning last night. They come in 15-41 in their last 56 vs. a team with a losing record and are 7-20 in their last 27 games following a win.

Look for Columbus to play fast here and put the pressure on net early in this one.

Toronto is a nice fade in this spot.

They come into play losers in 5 of their last 6 overall as they have struggled on both ends of the ice. Combine that with them being 7-17 in their last 24 in the third game of a 3 in 4 situation and this has disaster written all over for them.

Some trends to note. Maple Leafs are 1-5 in their last 6 vs. North. Maple Leafs are 0-7 in their last 7 when their opponent allows 5 goals or more in their previous game.

Back Winnipeg.

Vancouver -131

The Canucks are worth the move.

Vancouver comes in off back to back wins over Toronto, which was two huge upsets at giant prices. 

The Sens have been a punching bag for most teams this season as they don't have the firepower or defensive abilities to keep up here.

Look for Vancouver to ride that momentum into Thursday night and continue their potent attack,.

Some trends to note. Senators are 28-60 in their last 88 games as an underdog. Senators are 25-54 in their last 79 overall.

Back Vancouver.

This is a low line given the edge San Jose has.

The Sharks come into play on Friday holding a dominant head to head record against the Kings. They are a solid 20-8 over the last 28 meetings between these two clubs. 

Martin Jones has also been a great backing at home. He owns a 2.69 GAA record inside this building and has been a tough one to crack. Look for him to be the difference maker in this one.

Some trends to note. Sharks are 4-1 in their last 5 overall. Sharks are 4-1 in their last 5 games as a favorite.

Back San Jose.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Carolina is a dangerous team on both sides of the puck. They have one of the best defensive sides and counter that with the ability to control the puck offensively. Look for them to do just that once again here on Thursday.

Some trends to note. Hurricanes are 6-1 in their last 7 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. Hurricanes are 4-1 in their last 5 after scoring 5 goals or more in their previous game.

They come into Saturday 5-1 in the last 6 games against Chicago in this building and are winners in 4 straight overall against the Blackhawks. 

The Preds have also had success against the Central. They have cashed in 6 of the last 7 in this division and are on a nice run right now.

The Stars have the value here.

Dallas dropped the first leg a few nights ago to the Predators 3-2 and are in a great bounce back spot. 

The Stars have been a team this season that has done well in not letting losses pile up in a row and Nashville is not a team that is going to overwhelm anyone. Look for the Stars to control the possession in this one, as they are at their best when they can wear defenses down and pepper the opposing goal.

A trend to note here. Predators are 1-8 in their last 9 games as a home underdog.

Back Dallas.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Tampa Bay has had the Hurricanes number as of late too. They are 15-7 in the last 22 meetings in this building and have cashed in 23 of the last 31 head to head meetings.

Expect this one to be no different as Carolina will have a rude wake up call with the speed and attack this Lightning team has compared to the Blue Jackets.

Chicago has struggled to put together solid runs this year while Florida's offense is still one of the more threatening ones in the NHL despite last game. Look for them to come out with a purpose here and put their foot on the gas early.

The Stars have value at this kind of price. 

Columbus has been a wreck this season as they continue their free fall down the standings. 

They come into Saturday just 17-36 in their last 53 overall. This team has struggled defensively as they tend to give up goals in bunches. 

Dallas is an attack minded team that should be able to give this Columbus defense even more issues. Look for them to attack the net and pepper the goal, as they are at their best on 2nd and 3rd chances.

Some trends to note. Blue Jackets are 1-5 in their last 6 home games. Blue Jackets are 2-8 in their last 10 vs. Central.

The motivation will be high here for the Bruins. 

They come in off a loss to New Jersey, which will provide them with a lot of anger and frustration they're trying to get out here.

Despite the struggles this season against the Islanders, the Bruins are still 18-6 in their last 24 trips here.

Edmonton has won 4 straight, which includes a come from behind 4-3 win last time out. They trailed 3-1 after 1 in Vancouver, but rallied for 3 goals in the third period for a stunning comeback. 

Edmonton is not only in the heads of these Canucks, but the confidence levels are incredibly different.

With an early goal here, Edmonton can really have Vancouver on their heels and put the pressure on all night long.

Some trends to note. Oilers are 6-0 in their last 6 games playing on 1 days rest. Oilers are 4-0 in their last 4 games as a road favorite.

Back Edmonton.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Wednesday 9* NHL ML Play

Penguins +100

The Pens have value at this price.

Washington and Pittsburgh always play to some tough fought games that typically go down to the wire.

Washington situationally is not in the best spot here. The Caps are just 5-14 in their last 19 games following a win. On top of that they have gone 3-8 in their last 11 when their opponent allows 2 goals or less in their previous game. Pittsburgh is playing some great hockey right now and should be able to put a lot of pressure on this Caps team early in this one.

Some trends to note. Penguins are 4-1 in their last 5 overall. Penguins are 4-1 in their last 5 games playing on 2 days rest.

Back Pittsburgh.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Tuesday 8* NHL ML Play

Tampa Bay -121

The lightning have value at this price.

This is a perfect bounce back spot. They fell in Carolina on Saturday in a rare game where their offense had nothing doing. The one good thing about this team though is that they rarely produce stretches of bad hockey. 

They are a solid 38-13 in their last 51 games playing on 1 days rest. Look for them to come out of the gates aggressive early on Carolina.

Some trends to note. Lightning are 31-15 in their last 46 vs. a team with a winning record. Lightning are 70-34 in their last 104 road games.

Back Tampa Bay.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Monday 7* NHL ML Play

6* Underdog Play

Columbus -120

The Blue Jackets have value at this price. 

Columbus dominated on Thursday night against Nashville, as the Predators struggles continue this season. They are just 1-5 in their last 6 overall and continue to have issues on both sides of the puck. 

Columbus meanwhile has had success against lower tier teams. They come into Saturday 16-7 in their last 23 vs. a team with a winning % below .400.

Look for them to impose their will again here and put the pressure on early.

Some trends to note. Predators are 2-5 in their last 7 games following a loss of 3 or more goals. Predators are 3-8 in their last 11 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game.

Back Columbus.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Saturday 8* NHL ML Play

Vegas Golden Knights.

Vegas is in a nice bounce back spot here.

They matchup well situationally in this spot. For starters, they are a solid 7-1 on Saturdays over their last 8 games. They have brought a lot of energy and physical play in those contests. 

On top of that, they are a solid 14-6 in their last 20 after scoring 2 goals or less. They tend to bounce back in a big way after a sluggish performance and this is a nice spot for them. Look for them to come out aggressive and really put an emphasis on pressuring the net.

Some trends to note. Golden Knights are 10-4 in their last 14 vs. NHL. Golden Knights are 10-4 in their last 14 vs. West.

Back Vegas.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Saturday 9* NHL ML Play Vegas Golden Knights.

Nashville +114

The Preds have value at plus money here.

Columbus has been a roller coaster this season as they have seen far more inconsistencies than consistent stretches. 

Nashville comes in with the edge, given their success in this head to head matchup. Coming into Thursday, Nashville has gone 44-16 in the last 60 meetings. 

Look for them to continue their trend of beating up on lower tier opponents, as they are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. a team with a losing record.

Some trends to note. Predators are 8-0 in their last 8 Thursday games. Blue Jackets are 2-6 in their last 8 games playing on 2 days rest.

Back Nashville.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Thursday 8* NHL ML Play

Pittsburgh -117

The Pens have value at this kind of price.

Pittsburgh has dominated the Caps as of late. 

The Penguins have gone 6-2 in the last 8 head to head meetings and are 5-1 in the last 6 in Pittsburgh. 

Look for this one to be a physical game throughout, where the edge comes from the Penguins ability to control the puck. They rank 6th in shots against, rarely allowing opposing teams to gain a lot of control in their zone.

Some trends to note. Penguins are 4-1 in their last 5 Tuesday games. Penguins are 143-65 in their last 208 games as a home favorite.

Back Pittsburgh.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Tuesday 7* NHL ML Play

San Jose -107

The Sharks have value laying this small price.

San Jose has done very well in this head to head series as of late. They come into play on Monday 11-4 in the last 15 head to head meetings. That also includes a 4-1 record in their last 5 in San Jose against the Ducks.

Expect them to see a very sluggish Ducks team, who is just 1-5 in their last 6 games playing on 3 or more days rest.

Some trends to note. Ducks are 16-36 in their last 52 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game. Ducks are 3-8 in their last 11 Monday games.

Back San Jose.

Good Luck, Razor Ray.

Monday 10* NHL ML TOP PLAY

Toronto -123

The Maple Leafs continue to be at nice prices. 

They defeated the Canadiens earlier this week and they open up at a very solid price. 

Montreal has struggled mightily against the Maple Leafs as a whole. Coming into Saturday, they have dropped 9 of the last 13 meetings and 5 of the last 6 in Toronto. 

This Maple Leafs team is clicking on all cylinders right now as they have just overwhelmed opponents. Look for them to continue that here on Saturday as they just come at teams from all different angles offensively.

Some trends to note. Maple Leafs are 6-2 in their last 8 when their opponent scores 2 goals or less in their previous game. Maple Leafs are 25-10 in their last 35 games playing on 2 days rest.

Back Toronto.
