NHL Betting Picks Friday 4/2
Welcome to Keith’s NHL Betting Picks Friday 4/2. The Model had an average night going 2-3. The Isles/Caps over hit in the first period, which was amazing. We also took the Panthers live after going down 1 and they pulled it off in OT. The Rangers had a chance to hit the empty net to hit the -1.5 and the Sabres defender dove in front to save it, that sucked. The Lightning also hit a post with 5 seconds left on the empty net to not cover the -1.5 And the Golden Knights/Wild had 3 in the first and an xG total of almost 9, yet only ended 3-2 and didn’t hit the over. Pain.
We have 6 games on the NHL slate tonight. Let’s take a look at the updated profitability and over win percentages for the teams playing today.

Dashboard Edges
- Capitals Money Line (-157) over the Devils
- Jets Puck Line (+1.5, -210) over the Maple Leafs
- Oilers Money Line (-140) over the Flames
- Avalanche Puck Line (-1.5, +108) and Money Line (-225) over the Blues
Keep an eye out for Starting Goalies tonight. If we get Johansson for the Avs the over at 5.5 is extremely enticing. It’s a risk to take it before that info is announced, but as soon as that is announced it will jump to 6 or 6.5.
My Picks
Avalanche/Blues Over 5.5 (-120): I’m doing it. They have a B2B and I can see them rolling with Johansson tonight. Even if they don’t, the Avs offense has been such a juggernaut lately that they can easily put up 4+ goals and I wouldn’t bat an eye. If we get Johansson in net for the Avs that should easily allow the Blues to carry their weight on this over. The Avs lead the league in GF, xGF, and have a dominate PP. The Blues give up over 3 goals per game and have a weak PK. Let’s ride with this over.
Coyotes ML (-124): The Coyotes have a good chance now of making the playoffs with the Blues recent slide. The fact that the Blues are playing the best team in the West and the Yotes are playing the worst team should incentivize them to come out strong. The only concern for me is the Yotes goaltending as Adin Hill got lit up against the Avs Wednesday. The Ducks aren’t good though and the Yotes need this W so we ride with them tonight.
