PHI
Sun, Nov 15 • 7:30 PM ET
EDM (-145)
The Flyers have won just two of their last six games and have one regulation win in November.
The Oilers are a spectacular 8-0-1 on the road compared to Philly's 3-4-3 home record. The Flyers rank 30th in the NHL in expected goals share at 5-on-5 (43.12%), and sport the third-highest expected goals against (75.02). Not an encouraging combo facing the league's third-best offense in terms of goals scored.
PHI (+135)
I'm not paying the heavy juice for Edmonton on the road when both teams are playing their second game in two nights. Philadelphia already showed it could hang with the Oilers in Wednesday's 3-2 loss, and now the Flyers get them at home, where they are 3-4-3.

DAL

FLA (+115)
The Panthers have won six consecutive meetings against the Stars, scoring at least four goals in each.
Florida enters this game on a three-game winning streak while Dallas has lost three of its last five at home. The Cats are fifth in expected goals share over their last 10 games (53.45%), and although the Stars sport the second-ranked penalty kill (89.4%), the Panthers have produced the most expected goals on the power play this season (22.98).
Matthew Tkachuk o0.5 Assists (-106)
Tkachuk's 25 assists are second among all skaters, and it's no surprise given how he's tilted the ice in his team's favor.
The Panthers control nearly 58% of the shot attempts and 57% of the expected goals when Tkachuk is on the ice at 5-on-5.
He's also collected at least one assist in five straight road games and eight of his last 10.

ANA (-150)
Despite having lost two straight, the Ducks have scored the most goals in the league over their last 10 games (46), ranking 12th in expected goals share (52.23%).
The Flames rank 25th in expected goals share over their last 10 (46.52%) and face the league's best power play in Anaheim. Although they sport the ninth-ranked penalty kill (82.3%), they rank 22nd in penalty minutes taken.

VEG

VEG (-450)
I'm convinced the Henderson Silver Knights could beat the Canucks.
The Golden Knights have won nine consecutive meetings while Vancouver has lost eight straight games overall. Vancouver, last in the NHL at 3-17-1, also ranks last in expected goals share in all situations (39.42%) and at 5-on-5 (39.71%).
Tomas Hertl o0.5 Goals Scored (+150)
Hertl has been a beneficiary of Marner's playmaking on the power play, with five of his nine goals scored on the man advantage.
Hertl leads Vegas in individual expected goals (10.07), scoring chances (76), and high-danger chances (52), and he's a prime candidate to score against a Canucks team that doesn't do much defending.

The Predators are the hottest team in hockey and have won seven straight games.
The Sharks rank 29th in expected goals share at 5-on-5 over their last 10 games (45.84%), while the Preds have produced the 10th-most expected goals over their last 10 (34.57). San Jose is just 4-5-1 at home, and Nashville has lost just one game in regulation on the road this season.
Our experts and prediction models are hard at work analyzing the data. Check back shortly for today's picks, or explore our Computer Picks for inspiration.
We've combined statistical analysis and machine learning to make these computer picks. The table above shows you how the computer has done in its last 100 picks against the moneyline, spread (puck line), and total with $100 units.
Seeing where the computer has had success, or has failed, can give you some insight into where the betting value might lie going forward.
Use our computer picks as the starting point in your handicapping journey. Our computer analyzes every stat in our database and chooses the bet that has the most likely outcome. Now, use our other tools to do your own research and see if that research agrees or disagrees with the computer.
An NHL moneyline bet is simple: all you need to do is pick a winner. Whether that's in regulation or overtime, they don't ask how, but how many, right?
| Team | Moneyline Odds |
|---|---|
| Edmonton Oilers | -130 |
| Florida Panthers | +110 |
As with all moneyline odds, the team with the minus sign (-) is the favorite, while the side with the plus sign (+) is the underdog.
Betting $100 on Edmonton at -130 would net you $176 in winnings if they win the game, $76 of profit plus your initial $100 wager. Conversely, if you bet on Florida and they win, you get $210: $110 in profit plus your initial $100 bet.
The puck line is the NHL's version of the spread, where each team is given a certain number of goals to either win or lose by. Unlike the NFL or the NBA, the NHL spread doesn't typically change from 1.5 for each side. The spread is designed to make betting on the favorite more enticing.
| Team | Moneyline Odds | Puck line Odds |
|---|---|---|
| Edmonton Oilers | -130 | -1.5 (-110) |
| Florida Panthers | +110 | +1.5 (-180) |
The favorite, Edmonton at -1.5, would need to win by at least two goals for the bet to cash. If Edmonton wins by two or more goals, in other words, "covers the bet," you'd get $191 in winnings instead of $176 by taking them on the moneyline.
There are two ways for the underdog, Florida at +1.5, to "cover" a +1.5 puck line bet. They can lose by a single goal or win outright to cash. The odds are shorter, but you have options on this bet.
With a total bet, you're wagering on the total number of goals scored by both teams. You aren't backing any single side to win.
| Team | Total Odds |
|---|---|
| Edmonton Oilers | O5.5 (-115) |
| Florida Panthers | U5.5 (-105) |
Sportsbooks will set a line for the game. In this case, it's 5.5 goals. Your job is to figure out if Edmonton and Florida will score more or fewer than 5.5 goals, not counting the shootout.
If you see a line that's an even number, like 6.0, those bets can end in a push where your wager is refunded if the game ends at exactly six goals.
