3/6 NHL Bets
Buffalo (+160) – DraftKings – 0.66 Units
It’s a three-game slate so I am only going to throw out one bet tonight, let’s make it a good one. We can be boring and aim for a Maple Leafs puck line and call it a night. That would make for your usual piece of crap standard industry NHL betting article. However, I think especially on such a small slate we can be a little bit spicier, and I don’t think Toronto is the right play.
Buffalo has a strong recent history against Toronto, where they have won twice this season. Over the last 10 games between these teams, Buffalo is 7-3-0. The Sabres are also in very strong form at the moment as they have won five of their last seven games. That stretch involved some very strong competition as well, such as Winnipeg, Vegas, Florida, Tampa Bay, and Carolina.
Ironically, the Sabres have been better on the road this season (15-12-3) then at home (14-17-1). Toronto has also been much better away this season (18-6-6) than at home (17-12-2). There’s not much upside or point in taking Buffalo on the +1.5 puck line here at -155. The last time these teams faced off Buffalo smashed the Leafs 9-3 and perhaps they simply have their number. Let’s take a break from all of the Auston Matthews and Maple Leaf’s love and go with the upset.
