Thursday NHL Props: Penguins’ Evgeni Malkin Cannot Be Stopped

Coming off back-to-back 2-3 efforts, it’s time to put together a net positive evening with Thursday NHL props. (Unlike a net-positive one, like when Marc-Andre Fleury rubs the goalposts as a sign of appreciation for said posts keeping pucks out of his net.) We’re armed with a full slate of nine games on tonight’s NHL […]

Tuesday NHL Props: Will Flames’ Blake Coleman Stay Hot?

When last we propped out on the ice, we went 2-3 with NHL props selections. And we needed every minute and an empty netter in the Golden Knights-Coyotes game to get there, with Arizona’s Clayton Keller tallying a point in the final 30 seconds of the tilt. Let’s see if we can get a little […]

NHL Props Friday: Blackhawks’ Lankinen Back In Net Vs Devils

Devils cashing at +240. Columbus at +360. Nashville at +235. Ottawa at +200. Columbus again at +210. Montreal at +330.

Caleb Plant, you may have immediately deduced, is not Floyd Mayweather Jr.  Austin Trout, Liam […]

Top NHL Props: Will Devils Continue Early-Season Scoring Prowess?

ALDS Betting Preview: Rays, Astros Favored To Advance

Ah, fall. When leaves are on the ground, pumpkin spice is in the lattes, and a young man’s fancy turns to hot dogs and beer.
