It looks like we should be in store for an exciting night of NHL action.
Not only are there 11 games to watch, but only two of them also have favourites priced higher than -160 on the moneyline.
We were an OT goal (or a controversially disallowed Minny goal) away from a big night Saturday, settling for a 1-1 split on our plays and an 8-3 evening overall on posted opinions.
Let’s hope for a little more puck luck tonight as we’ve got betting opinions on nine of the 11 matchups tonight, including four plays for Site Supporters, including our Best Bet on the card.
Good luck on whatever you play!
