Anthony B. Daily Picks:
LOCK: WPG vs. PHI: WPG (-130)
VALUE: WPG vs. PHI: OVER 6.5 GOALS (-110)
DEVILS: NJD vs. PIT: UNDER 6.5 GOALS (-110)
Explanation:
For my VALUE pick, the over for the Winnipeg Jets and Philadelphia Flyers is looking good. Philadelphia is riding a three-game win streak. And while the Jets, no doubt, are a tougher opponent, the Flyers have scored at least four goals in each game during their win streak. Winnipeg is averaging 3.46 goals per game, with the lowest total in their last three games being two goals. Unless Philadelphia’s goaltender is on fire, seven goals between these teams look like an easily attainable feat.
Matt M. Daily Picks:
LOCK: WPG vs. PHI: WPG (-130)
VALUE: Parlay of NJD vs. PIT: OVER 6.5 GOALS (-110) and OVER 6.5 JETS vs. PHI (-110)
DEVILS: NJD vs. PIT: NJD +1.5 (-130)
Explanation:
For my LOCK pick, the Flyers comes into the night with a goal differential of -30 and have really struggled at the goaltending position all season. The Jets, on the other hand, have a +31 goal differential and a 31-15-2 record. With the playoffs around the corner, look for the top teams to separate themselves from the bottom of the pack.
James V. Daily Picks:
LOCK: WPG vs. PHI: WPG (-130)
VALUE: WPG vs. PHI: WPG -1.5 (+200)
DEVILS: NJD vs. PIT: UNDER 6.5 GOALS (-110)
Explanation:
For my LOCK pick, even though the Flyers come into this contest hot, they’ve had an All-Star break to cool off. At (-130) that is pretty good value for a team that’s a Stanley Cup contender versus a bottom-feeder in the East.
Rob DeLuca (Guest) Daily Picks:
LOCK: WPG vs. PHI: WPG (-130)
VALUE: NJD vs. PIT: UNDER 6.5 GOALS (-110)
DEVILS: NJD vs. PIT: PIT (-230)
Explanation:
For my VALUE pick, the Devils inability to score on the road will certainly help the under hit. Another aspect of my reasoning is with whoever is net for the Devils, don’t expect for him to get lit up too bad.
