NHL Picks

Boldy has cashed the Over in helpers in three straight, and in four of his last five appearances. He just had two helpers in Thursday’s tough loss to the Dallas Stars, and has already grabbed five assists in April.

Joseph Woll has averaged 33.1 shots against per game – the highest mark in the NHL among netminders with more than two games played. Woll has made Over 26.5 saves in nine of his last 10 appearances, while the Panthers have recorded 26-plus shots in all three of their meetings against the Maple Leafs this season. 

The Flyers and Jets both profile as defense-first teams, playing at Bottom-10 paces while ranking Top-14 in suppressing shots and goals. 

The Over has cashed in three straight meetings between these teams, and the total is set at a generous 5.5 Saturday night.

Suzuki needs just two points to hit the century mark, and he has a good shot at it tonight against a Columbus team that's won just two of their last 10. He has 17 points in his last 11 games.

The Golden Knights have seen a big coaching bump under John Tortorella, winning four of five games and posting exceptional underlying numbers. Their improved play, and urgency for points, should serve them well against an Avalanche team that just wrapped up the President’s Trophy.

The Czechia native is averaging 2.61 SOG per game this season, and he’s hit the Over in six appearances in a row. Necas already has 19 shots on net in April, and he’s always creating chances in the offensive end. He’s averaging three SOG per game across two meetings with the Vegas Golden Knights.

The Vancouver Canucks have just one win in their last 11 games. In seven of those losses, they’ve mustered two goals or fewer. Meanwhile, the San Jose Sharks sit four points back of a Wild Card spot in the West after scoring just a combined three goals in back-to-back losses to Edmonton and Dallas. And yet, the books have pegged the total at 6.5, despite the Canucks ranking last in scoring and the Sharks sitting 26th. Despite their struggles, Vancouver has kept the total Under seven goals in each of its last two games. Against an offensively challenged Sharks side, I’m betting they make it three straight.

Pittsburgh has won three straight and has also taken two consecutive matchups with Washington. With the Penguins ranking Top 5 in goals per game and power-play percentage, back the road team at plus money.
