NHL Free Picks

The Devils have traded wins and losses through their past six games, and with the team coming off a 4-3 shootout defeat to Columbus last time out I like New Jersey to snap back with a win once again. The Ducks just managed to end a six-game losing streak with a 4-2 win over Montreal …

The Philadelphia Flyers are coming off a 4-3 shootout win over the visiting New Jersey Devils on Sunday. Here the teams will do battle again just a couple of nights later, and I expect the Flyers to get the job done on the road as well. The tanking Devils have dropped 10 straight games overall. …

**4-1 L5 Free Pick** The Tampa Bay Rays are 14-8 to the over on the season, but their last two games have gone under and I expect a low-scoring affair when they host the Oakland Athletics on Monday for the first game of a four-game series. Oakland hands the ball to Sean Manaea (2-1, 3.04 …

Great spot to fade the Vancouver Canucks who are coming off back-to-back wins as massive underdogs (+340 and +260) against Toronto. The Nucks were well-rested and excited to be back on the ice following a three-week hiatus due to a COVID-19 outbreak in the Nucks camp, but I think they’re way overrated in this matchup …

*30-20 (60%) all free picks 2021 & 9-4 (69%) L13*  The Pittsburgh Penguins have a dominant record of 15-3-1 home at PPG Paints Arena. I think they’re in for a tough one here though, facing an Islanders team that will be looking to avenge a 6-3 loss to Pittsburgh a couple of nights ago. The Isles came out …

27-18 (60%) +$6,870 free picks for dime betting followers YTD.  Good spot to back the Calgary Flames who will be looking to rebound from a 2-0 loss at Toronto. It was the first time the Flames were shut out this season, but they’re 5-3 after being held to one goal. Lighting up the lamp shouldn’t be an …

I’m usually not a big fan of laying this kind of juice, but the Sabres are simply a no-brainer fade at this point. Buffalo has dropped 11 straight games, and while the Devils have had their own struggles of late, I fully expect them to control this game from start to finish. The Sabres are …

I gave out a free pick winner on the Ottawa Senators as a puckline dog (+1.5) against the Edmonton Oilers a couple of days ago. I’m going back to the well expecting the Sens to keep this a close game too. Note that of the Oilers’ last seven wins, only two were by two goals …

The Dallas Stars have won only two of their last 10 games. The 2019-20 Stanley Cup Finalist battled back from a three-goal deficit only to lose in a shootout against Nashville last time out, but I like the Stars to show up and fight off the Chicago Tuesday night. The Blackhawks have played pretty well lately, but …

OK, admittedly a tough spot for the Ottawa Senators who will be playing the second game of a back-to-back after defeating Calgary in OT on Sunday, but I like them to keep it close here against Edmonton. The Oilers had dropped three in a row before coming up with a 3-2 win over the Flames …
