Oof. After closing out last week with a bunch of NHL props winners, Tuesday was a serious stinkburger. Brady Tkachuk’s three pucks on net weren’t enough to clear Over 3.5 on his shots prop. Brad Marchand and Cam Atkinson failed to light the lamp against opponents allowing the most and third-most goals this season, respectively. […]
Monday’s Best Bets were a mixed bag at 1-1. What does “mixed bag” mean anyway? A quick google search suggests it’s an old hunting term used to describe several species of hunted birds put together in the same bag, some more desirable than others. What a visual. Aren’t you glad we looked that up for […]
When it comes to NHL props — as with many things in life — it’s not about how you start, it’s about how you finish. After struggling through the beginning of last week, we closed strong by nailing three of our five NHL props recommendations on both Thursday and Friday. That includes bankroll-enhancing plus-money goal […]
Are you tired of April Fools’ Day yet? Don’t worry, the Best Bets column is a safe space. We won’t put sugar in your salt shaker or bait you into believing fake news (we’re looking at you, LeBron). Nope, you’re here for winners, and we’re here to deliver them. Which we’ve done to the tune of […]
Wow, does it feel great to get back in the NHL props betting win column! On Thursday, Brad Marchand scored twice to lead the Bruins to an 8-1 rout of the Devils; Aleksander Barkov scored twice (including a power-play tally) in the Panthers’ 4-0 shutout of Chicago; and Nazem Kadri bagged a pair of apples […]
Wednesday’s Best Bets went 2-1 overall, leaving us with positive momentum and a 55 percent win rate on the season. The shining star continues to be our NBA Props, which currently stands at 14-4 since starting this Best Bets experiment. Are we onto something? Or are we just luckier than a leprechaun who found a […]
Friends, we’re officially in an NHL props funk. After a 1-for-5 effort last Thursday, we followed it up with an 0-for-5 Tuesday. Just how frustrating was the action two nights ago? I actually attended the Islanders-Blue Jackets game, so I go to watch in person as Columbus defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov scored two goals while teammate […]
Monday’s Best Bets went 2-1, which extends our three-day record to 8-2. This is where some would order a nice bottle of champagne and kick up their feet. Not us at Props.com. We’ll trade the Prosecco for a cup of black coffee while finding four more best bets from Tuesday’s robust slate of basketball and […]
Despite a limited number of games, it was a wild Monday night in the NHL, with five of six teams joining the six-goal club in victories. That includes the Buffalo Sabres, who rallied from a 4-0 deficit to beat the Blackhawks 6-5 in Chicago. Will the scoring fest continue Tuesday? There certainly will be plenty […]
We went 1-for-3 with Wednesday’s Best Bets, bringing us back to the gambling Mendoza line at 26-26-1. In other words, it’s Judgement Day for the Props and BetPrep crew. Will we dip below .500 for the first time since launching this article series, or is this just a rut that we will laugh about in […]
It’s Thursday, which means another big slate of NHL action, with 10 games on tap. And that, of course, also means another opportunity to cash in with Thursday NHL props! Tuesday’s effort resulted in a mixed bag. The shots on goal props featured a frustrating series of near misses, but a pair of goals from […]
What’s cooler than being cool? If you answered “ice cold!“, then you are correct. We also would have also accepted “Monday’s Best Bets” as an answer. It was bound to happen eventually, but our Monday selections went 0-for-3 Monday. How will the Props (and BetPrep) crew respond Tuesday? First off, they won’t pick against LeBron […]
