NHL 2018/19. This season our approach is going to be a little different than regular readers are accustomed to. Whenever we’re playing an underdog, the bet will be split into two parts. We’re playing the underdog -½ +money for 1 unit and we’ll also play them with OT included for 1 unit. The take-backs are so high and offer so much value that over time, playing this way will benefit us.

7:05 PM EST. Regulation only. Keith Kinkaid has been solid in net for the Devils while posting a .949 save percentage through the first three games and leading the team to a 3-0 start. We take nothing away from the Devils but they caught some teams at the right time when they beat Washington 6-0 the day after the Caps beat Vegas 5-2 in a Cup rematch and they also beat San Jose playing its fourth and final road game in six days to open the year on a Sunday afternoon in New Jersey. Incidentally, San Jose outshot the Devils 39-36 and the Devils also had eight (!) PP opportunities in that game. The Sharks spent 16 minutes or almost the equivalent of one period killing penalties and still outshot the Devils. New Jersey may indeed be a quality outfit but let’s not jump the gun here. What we know for sure is that Dallas goes from being -170 on the road in Ottawa last night to a +120 pooch here. They may have been overpriced last night (although we’re not convinced of that) but underpriced today after losing in Ottawa last night, 4-1. Dallas outshot Ottawa 38-24 last night and out-chanced them, 22-15. On Saturday night, in a 5-3 victory over the Ducks, Dallas held a dominating 40-19 edge in scoring chances while firing away over 50 shots on net. The Stars come in at 3-2 but deserve better. Ben Bishop took the loss last and is now single-handedly responsible or both losses after he also surrendered six goals to the Maple Leafs on 29 shots. There is a great chance that Anton Khodubin gets this call in net for Dallas but regardless, we get a very talented squad that is enjoying playing a more aggressive run n gun style of hockey under a new regime and they’re dangerous as hell.

Therefore:

OT included - Dallas +125 for 1 unit.

Regulation only Dallas -½ + 180 for 1 unit.

 

Also, just like in baseball and every sport, there is a great chance will be adding a bunch of late add-ons to our slate of games after dinner and we’ll be sure to tweet them out when we do.
