NHL Betting Picks Sunday 2/21
Welcome to Keith’s NHL Betting Picks Sunday 2/21. There are 4 games scheduled for today, including the second Lake Tahoe game between the Bruins and the Flyers. A couple ice issues yesterday had the 3:00 game play the first period, then postpone the remainder of the game to Midnight ET. That caused the NHL to switch the start time to today’s game to 7:30, hopefully there won’t be any ice issues here.
Let’s take a look at the updated profitability and over win percentages for teams playing today.

The biggest discrepancies in the matchups today based on the plot are the Flyers Puck Line (+1.5, -177), Jets ML (-108), and Canadiens ML (-215).
This doesn’t account for the Flyers having 6 players out for COVID-related issues. The Canadiens also scare me as they are 1-1-0 against the Senators with their only win being by 1 goal, and they’re coming off a loss last night to the Maple Leafs. The Jets might have a little value especially with Hellebuyck confirmed as the starter today.
Keep an eye out for the rest of the Starting Goalies today.
My Pick:
Bruins in Regulation -110: The Bruins are by far the better team, considering the Flyers have 6 starters in COVID protocol. Trying to squeeze some value here as the ML at -180 has no value. The Bruins should handle their business in the outdoor game and get 2 points in regulation from Philly.
