NHL Saturday Games Analysis, Plus Sharp Predictions

Saturday Card Offers Bettors Strong NHL Picks and Parlays Options

The NHL has provided the best NHL players who like to make a few NHL hockey bets with a few incredible opportunities to make money, while others are games to just sit back and watch with a few Molson’s (a nod to Canada).

Toronto will invade what should be a den full of angry Bruins after dropping their first game in regulation at home against Seattle Kraken, Thursday. The NHL schedule concludes with the surging Devils in Los Angeles to take on the second-place Kings. Let’s continue our NHL Saturday Games Analysis buy going through a few games that should give your bankroll some life.

Must-Watch Television

Maple Leafs logoToronto Maple Leafs vs Bruins logoBoston Bruins:

Game: Maple Leafs 26-10-7, 59 points vs Bruins 32-5-4, 68 points
Date, Time & Streaming:
Moneyline: Bruins -160, Maple Leafs +130
Puck Line: Bruins -1.5 (+150), Maple Leafs +1.5 -190
Total: 6 o -120

The Boston Bruins suffered their first loss at home to the Seattle Kraken, Thursday, 3-0. The effort was lethargic at best for Jim Montgomery’s team who may have been overlooking the red-hot Kraken. Either way, you can bet they will be zeroed in on the Leafs who will be looking to narrow the 9-point gap in the Atlantic Division.

Despite the loss, Boston is 26-15 against the puck line, good for almost 1500 units of profit. The Bruins are 22-6 in their last 28 games, behind a league-best goals-against average of 2.15.

Although Toronto is on the Bruins heels, they have been unreliable to bettors with an unflattering 17-26 record against the PL, losing 527 units in the process. The Leafs are lethal on offense but not quite in the same conversation as Boston.

‘The Leafs are in the middle of the league with just 31.77 shots per game, they’ll need to win that battle with the B’s to come out victorious in this one. On the injury front, it’s still unclear if Auston Matthews will be available after missing the previous two games for Toronto with an undisclosed injury.’

Our recommendation is to back the Boston Bruins but make sure you’re not going too crazy with a -160 favorite. We suggest betting on a flat unit rather than playing to win a unit.


More NHL Matchups to Watch

Devils logoNew Jersey Devils vs Kings logoLos Angeles Kings:

Game: Devils 26-12-3, 55 points vs Kings 25-14-6, 56 points
Date, Time & Streaming:
Moneyline: Kings -125, Devils +105
Puck Line: Kings -1.5 (+185), Devils +1.5 (-235)
Total: 6.5 (u -120)

The Devils will be playing the second of back-to-back games after a date with the Anaheim Ducks, Friday. Bettors were convinced that they would dispose of the Ducks easily, but are less convinced against the Kings with the number staying put after opening as a -125 favorite.

The second-pace KIngs can smell the Vegas Golden Knights in the Pacific Division with just two points of separation.For LA, it’s a must to keep winning with the Knights owning two games in hand.

The Devils have been one of the league’s biggest surprises both in record and units won. The Devils sent a message to the Carolina Hurricanes that they’re not going to run away with the division after a 5-3 victory, Tuesday, Jersey are four points out of first with an important road trip starting in LA, while the ‘Canes play their next three at home. Only three other NHL teams have been more profitable than the Devils with 556 units won.

Carolina is having a terrific season but still has lost a measly 3 units, making them one of the more difficult teams to trust with our bankroll. This game is a pass for us but will be entertaining without cash on the line.

Oilers logoEdmonton Oilers vs Golden Knights logoVegas Golden Knights:

Game: Oilers 22-18-3, 47 points vs Knights 28-13-2, 58 points
Date, Time & Streaming:
Moneyline: Golden Knights -160, Oilers +135
Puckline: Golden Knights -1.5 (+140), Oilers +1.5 -175
6.5 o -120

Another game we won’t be involved in but you can bet it’s a great way to end our NHL Saturday Games Analysis.This is becoming an underground rivalry with both teams’ fans pushing harder for disdain between the two clubs, perhaps harder than they are on the ice.

You can bet that there will be plenty of Oiler representation at the Fortress as the Knights try to hold on to their top spot in the Pacific Division.

‘Edmonton hasn’t played up to the level of the Knights this NHL season but a road win would go a long way toward their belief that they are as good as the VGK. Golden Knights money has trickled in since the release of the opening number which is now -160 after opening -155.’

We do expect some buyback after the Oilers fans hit town, so if you like the Oilers, wait until game time when out-of-town money will rule the number.

The Oilers will be playing back-to-back nights after a date with the Sharks. A loss to the Sharks could put more of an emphasis on an Oilers wager considering they have no room to drop both games.

Let’s continue our NHL Saturday Games Analysis by quickly looking at other games of interest.


Ice Chips: More NHL Matchups to Watch

Flames logoCalgary Flames vs Stars logoDallas Stars:

Game: Flames 20-14-9, 49 points vs Stars 25-11-7, 57 points
Date, Time & Streaming:

We have two teams that are under machines, so naturally, we’re looking to bet the over with the number an irresistible 5.5. Dallas opened as a short -120 home favorite. Expect that number to be stable right up until puck-drop.

Wait For the Highlights of the Week

Blue Jackets logoColumbus Blue Jackets vs Red Wings logoDetroit Red Wings

Game: Blue Jackets 12-27-2, 26 points vs Red Wings 18-15-7, 43 points
Date, Time & Streaming:

It’s hard to find two teams under .500 at this point in the season, but this is close. The highlights may be hard to stomach but you can have some fun with this one by putting a small amount of change on the Jackets who are a massive -265 dog. Put a few on Columbus +215 and close your eyes to what should be played to cure insomnia.

That does it for NHL picks and parlays All the best in starting this weekend.
