News of the morning has to start with Tage Thompson. His 5-points (4G,1A) in the first period against Columbus was crazy enough, yes? Almost an afterthought that he added a fifth. Thompson has Rocket-ed to third in the NHL goals race. My DFS+ starts with my Thursday feature, “What’s Wrong With… (2022 playoff teams only)?” [...]
We are back with another Tuesday edition of Game Picks, where we give out a Gold, Silver, and Bronze selection every Tuesday during the NHL season. There are nine games on the NHL slate tonight, giving us plenty of betting options. I’ve looked over every matchup and I think I’ve found a few winners. The [...]
Last night I went to bed before the west coast game but had a DFS play (mostly) matching my deepest fantasy league - four Canadiens (Suzuki drafted, and FA’s Sean Monahan, Mike Matheson, and Kaiden Guhle) and two Canucks (Elias Pettersson and Andrei Kuzmenko, both drafted). Hmm, four goals, six assists, but only plus-2 combined, [...]
It is Thursday once again, so let’s find some winning NHL props. We have 11 games on the NHL schedule tonight, which is plenty when trying to find some winning prop bets. I’ve taken my time to look over every matchup tonight, and I think I’ve found a few props that can win us some [...]
Starting this month, as part of my NHL DFS column, I’m planning a Thursday feature that’s tentatively titled “What’s wrong with…(playoff teams),” and my first examination will be the Tampa Bay Lightning. No, they haven’t collapsed, they’re not tanking, they have no plans to enter the Connor Bedard sweepstakes - - in fact, not a [...]
As we close out November, I’ll start with a review of the Vancouver Canucks’ resurgence. After an 0-5-2 start that had fans - and his boss Jim Rutherford - calling for Bruce Boudreau to win OR ELSE, the team is quietly 9-5-1, actually one of the best records in the west over that span. So, [...]
Back in the first week of September, I put out some outrageous too-early predictions for the NHL season, team results. I had five new teams making the top-16, and thus into the playoffs come April, these being (alphabetically) Detroit, New York Islanders, Vancouver, Vegas, and Winnipeg. Ok it’s now the eve of USA Thanksgiving, and [...]
We are back with another Tuesday edition of Game Picks, where we give out a Gold, Silver, and Bronze selection every Tuesday during the NHL season. There are only two games in the NHL tonight, which doesn’t give us a ton of betting options, but I think I’ve found a few that can win us [...]
On Tuesday, I discussed a team that’s underperforming badly (Vancouver), and yes they came to play for their coach, taking away a 5-4 win. Today I’ll cover the opposite end, and discuss the New Jersey Devils. First stat - they’ve won their last 10 games and sit atop the Metropolitan Division. But why? The goaltending [...]
We are back with another Tuesday edition of Game Picks, where we give out a Gold, Silver, and Bronze selections every Tuesday during the NHL season. There are nine games on the NHL docket tonight, giving us plenty of opportunities to win some cash. I’ll begin my evening by focusing on two games, the Washington [...]
