NHL Picks/Props

What a difference a week makes. In what has been quite an unpredictable start to the new NHL campaign, we’ve already witnessed a number of peculiar trends and performances from a myriad of different teams and players. Hands in the air if you predicted the Philadelphia Flyers would be sitting in first place in a [...]

The agonizingly long wait for Saturday hockey betting action is officially over. With that, the fifth consecutive installment of weekend NHL betting breakdowns here at Dobber Hockey is upon us. Welcome back, my degenerate gambling friends. Each and every Saturday from now till the end of the NHL season you can tap into our Saturday [...]

I chose the wrong hero for my Thursday article, but a Panthers’ overtime win?  Yeah, nailed that one. Tonight - does anyone have a crystal ball without the smoke from Ontario forest fires, or without the bias that most hockey fans proudly carry ALL THE TIME?

Since I inadvertently put out a DFS article yesterday, I felt I owed the site a true props piece for all mothers to bet today.  It’s possible that the outline for tonight’s 10PM ET contest was set last evening, also. To review, I picked Seattle to extend the series, the score to be 6-4 (it [...]

Oh, I will eventually let the NHL draft lottery go…but not quite yet.   Thursday, I discussed how to make it more interesting than conducting a lottery in a closed room, in advance, and with mathematical formulas that no one picking the ping pong balls would likely understand.  The league needs to redefine excitement.  Today, I’m [...]
