NHL DFS Betting Picks (Feb. 18)

NHL Betting Picks Thursday 2/18

Hey everyone! My name is Keith and I’ve been betting on hockey the last few years. Finally getting the opportunity to post my picks here and describe some rationale behind my decisions. I visualize the Moneyline and Puckline profits and Over/Under Win% throughout the year, ensemble a few public win probability models to seek edges, and incorporate advanced stats and special teams (Power Play and Penalty Kill) advantages to make my picks. Starting goalies is also a huge factor in finding value with betting lines, but unfortunately, those sometimes don’t get announced until 20 minutes before the game. Let’s get started with my NHL Betting Picks Thursday 2/18!

Here is my visualization tracking profits (assumption 1 unit bet on each) and Over Win% through 2/18:

Tableau Public Link

For today’s games lets look at the Win Probabilities and compare them with the DraftKings ML (as of 10:30am):

A couple of slight edges on underdogs and a big edge on the Senators, who have looked competent against the Maple Leafs in their last two games. Can’t pull the trigger on that though as they are due for a regression.

My picks

Coyotes ML -154: The Coyotes just played 7 (!!) straight games against the Blues going 4-3. Going against much lesser competition in LA this is a reasonable price to play Arizona here.

Rangers +1.5/Islanders +1.5 Parlay -107: The Rangers are one of the least profitable ML teams, but a top 5 profitable PL team. Going against a Flyers team with 6 starters on the COVID list and 3 guys making their NHL debut I like the Rangers to cover here. The Islanders are also a strong PL team and the Penguins have only 2 wins in regulation in 14 games, not to mention they are the least profitable PL team in the league.

Ducks ML +110: The Wild were coming off of an extended COVID pause on Tuesday with a few guys still out of the lineup and looked terrible against a bottom-5 team in the Kings. The Ducks aren’t much better but have elite goaltending in Gibson which we are riding on here.

Capitals/Sabres Under 6.5 -125: The Capitals are one of the luckiest teams at Even Strength scoring a whole goal above expected. The Sabres have scored 1 goal in their last 2 games, although against a stingy Islanders team. No one likes cheering for under but at 6.5 it was too appealing to pass up.

Jacob’s Above Average Plays

Pick Management 5 years ago

written by Pick Management

Jacob’s Above Average Plays have gone 4-2 in his last six picks, and he has three more plays that will continue the hot streak. One more NBA and two more NHL plays that are sure to cash and that you won’t want to miss out on them.

Take Oklahoma City Thunder +2.5 versus Houston Rockets ( 9:40 pm EST, Thursday 9 January 2020)

This game features two of the hottest teams in the NBA right now. Both teams have won eight of their last ten games and are putting up a lot of points. Both have continued to play above average on offense, but one of these teams lets their opponents put up over 110 points per game – that’s what makes it clear which side I want to be on.

Houston played Atlanta last night, in a game that was much closer than it should have been. Houston defeated Atlanta 122-115 with James Harden getting a triple-double scoring 41 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists. Part of the reason this game was so close could be chalked up to Russell Westbrooks’s absence, but the Rockets defensive is exactly why I want to take Oklahoma City tonight. Houston ranks 27th in the league in points allowed while on the road, allowing an above-average amount of points to home teams at 116.78 ppg. When the Rockets are on the road, they are also allowing teams to make almost 50% of their shots(47.84%). Don’t get me wrong, even though the Rockets give up a lot of points, they score enough to win games with their high powered high offense. The Rocket’s offense is ranked number one in the NBA in points scored, scoring an average of 119.4 ppg – but when the Rockets are on the road, the offense is even better. They rank first in scoring, eighth in field goal percentage, third in three-point percentage, and fifteenth in rebounding. However, their above-average offense isn’t going to help them against Oklahoma tonight. It does not help that when playing on back to back nights, the Rockets have covered just two of the six games played in that scenario.

Oklahoma is one of the hottest teams in the NBA as of late even though their league standing doesn’t show. The Thunder have won eight of their last ten games and covered in nine of them. So far this year, they are the best team in the NBA covering the spread. They have covered twenty-five of the thirty-seven games played, covering by an average of two and a half points. This year overall, they have honestly been pretty mediocre when it comes to team stats. They rank 20th in points per game, 25th in three-point percentage, and 24th in rebounds. They also have an above-average field goal percentage at 46.43%, ranking them 9th. Additionally, Oklahoma City has a great track record versus Houston. OKC has won five of their last games versus Houston and covered in six, but there is something more interesting about this head to head matchup. In the six games covered by OKC, the Thunder not only covered, but won outright four times as an underdog, and this game as the same feel to those.

Oklahoma City is one of the NBA’s best cover teams and Houston is on a back to back. Russell Westbrook being back could help the Rockets defense, but he hurts the offense – only making 23% of his shots. I think the Thunder win this game outright, but I’m taking the two and a half points just to be safe.

Take Tampa Bay Lighting to win in regulation -125 vs Arizona Coyotes ( 7:00 pm EST, Thursday 9 January 2020)

I really like the Lighting to beat up on the Coyotes tonight. Tampa Bay is ranked second in the Eastern Conference and overall score an above-average 3.77 goals per game. When at home, it’s even better with the team scoring an average of 4.14 goals. They take on Arizona, who is most likely playing their third-string goalie who hasn’t played since the beginning of December. Arizona is not a very fast-paced team and Tampa Bay is, and that’s why I am taking them tonight.

The Coyotes score under three goals per game when on the road (2.87), and are allowing just about two and a half (2.53). They have also won four of their last five, but I believe that they are just a paper tiger and those numbers do not represent what is really happening. The teams Arizona have recently beat include Anaheim, St. Louis, Dallas, Vegas, and Detroit. Almost all of those teams are in the half of the league in scoring. I do not think the Coyotes defense is really that good, especially against the number one scoring team in the NHL.

Tampa Bay has won eight in a row and has won twenty-five of thirty-six games played when they were favored. Vasilevsky is starting in goal for the Lightning, and he has won twenty of his thirty-one starts. Like I said earlier, Tampa Bay is scoring 4.14 goals per game (which ranks first), and allow just about three goals (3.05) when at home. They have also won four of the last five games at home. Tampa Bay is trying to get back to first place, and I believe they really want to make up for last year’s playoff performance (they lost in the first round, just in case you didn’t know). Take the Lighting to win in regulation.

(For this bet to win Tampa Bay must win the game in the first three periods. If the game goes to overtime we have a loser.)

Take New Jersey Devils vs New York Rangers OVER 1.5 Goals 1st Period -162 ( 7:00 pm EST, Thursday 9 January 2020)

I’m sticking with what works and taking another first period over. The New York Rangers rank third in the NHL, going over 1.5 goals in the first period, and have done so in 27 of the 42 games they have played this year. The New Jersey Devils rank ninth in the NHL going over the total in the first period, going over in twenty-four of forty-two games played. In the last nine matchups between these two teams, the game total has hit the over in seven of them. The Devils have gone over the total in seven of their last nine games overall as well. These two teams play each other tough when they play, splitting that last ten games. I see this being another high scoring game as more than six goals have been scored in seven of their last ten meetings. Take Over 1.5 Goals First Period, as we see another high scoring game between these two teams.

(For this bet to win the total score of the first period must be over 1.5 goals. If not we have a loser. Odds available at DraftKings)

Jacob’s Above Average Plays

Pick Management 5 years ago

written by Pick Management

Jacob’s Above Average Plays are back after a few days off with three winners. He’s got one NBA and two NHL plays that are under the radar and we’re getting great value because of it. Make sure you get in on these plays so you can cash too!

Take Detroit Pistons -1 1st Quarter versus Cleveland Cavaliers ( 7:00 pm EST, Tuesday 7 December 2020)

Here we have two teams that are struggling, to say the least. Both the Pistons and the Cavaliers have had to deal with multiple injury issues this year, and it has obviously caused issues for their teams. Both teams have experienced, above-average players – but they do not have a great supporting cast and it is causing problems.

Cavalier’s long-time starter, Kevin Love, is the most frustrated player on the Cavaliers. He had an epic meltdown on Saturday following their pregame shoot around directed at Cav’s General Manager, Koby Altman, and the rest of the front office staff with Love stating there was “no feel here”. If you don’t know what that means, as a former basketball player let me explain: When there is “no feel” on a basketball team, it’s like five individuals playing their own game when you should be playing as a team. As you might imagine, that can be incredibly frustrating. Love then had a terrible game that night, scoring just twelve points in a 121-106 loss to the Thunder. So far this year, Love had been second in scoring on the team, averaging about eighteen points per game. Last night, it was announced that the Cavaliers have asked Kevin Love to help them trade him, which makes an awkward situation for everyone. The rest of the Cavaliers have struggled this year as well. The team has won fourteen of the thirty-six games played, but the focus here is the first quarter – so let’s get into that. This year, the Cavs are ranked 28th in the NBA in first-quarter points scored, with just 25.6 points. They have covered the spread in the first quarter just thirteen times this year out of the thirty-six played. At home, it has been even worse. Out of the nineteen home games played at home, the Cavs have covered in just five of those games. I have tried to find something about the Cavaliers that is above-average, but I can’t. They rank in the bottom 20 in just about every offensive stat, including points per game, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, field goal percentage, three-point percentage/made, and more. The only thing I can find that is above-average about the Cav’s is how bad they are.

The Pistons have not exactly been a good team either. However, I believe (when healthy) that they can be. Detroit has been awful on the road, winning just six of the eighteen road games played – but at least I can find some above-average stats on them. As a team, they have a shooting percentage of 46%, which is good for 10th in the NBA. They are ranked third in three-pointers (37%), seventh in forced turnovers (14.1), and 5th in opponent rebounds (43.2). Detroit has been led by Andre Drummond, who is above-average in most of his stats this year. Scoring an average of seventeen ppg, grabbing an average of thirteen rebounds, a questionable Tristan Thompson, and Kevin Love appearing uninterested in playing for Cleveland – he should have a phenomenal game. The team has also been starting off hot in games. Overall, the Pistons have covered in the first quarter in twenty-two of their thirty-seven games, but it’s an even better record on the road. Detroit has covered against the spread in twelve of the nineteen games played on the road, which lands them at a way above-average 63%.

With the announcement that the Cavs are pushing to have Kevin Love traded in addition to the consistent locker room drama – I see them struggling a lot in this game. The Pistons have covered the first quarter spread in seven of their last ten games, and I see them coming out hot and trying to put Cleveland away early.

Take Colorado Avalanche vs New York Rangers OVER 1.5 1st Period -150 (7:30 pm EST, Tuesday 7 December 2020)

Here we have two above-average offenses that love to score and score early. The Avalanche are ranked second (28-15) in the NHL going over the total in the first period, and the Rangers are ranked second (26-15). The Avalanche are also tallying an above-average amount of shots on goal per game, almost 33 (32.98), which ranks them first in the NHL in shots on goal per game. However, the Rangers are shooting a ton of shots on goal as well: With 29.83 shots on goal per game, they are ranked 11th in shots on goal per game. Both teams are scoring an above-average amount of goals per game (Col 3.63 gpg/NYR 3.24 gpg) and I see this being a back and forth, high scoring game. While both teams are hitting the over in the first period more than 60% of the time, the Avalanche is even better on the road. When on the road this year, Colorado has gone over the first period total in seventeen out of twenty-two games for an outrageous 77.3%.

This is going to be a fast-paced, high scoring game. The Avalanche played last night, so I see them having some tired legs on defense which bodes well for a Rangers team playing on two days rest. Take OVER 1.5 goals in the first period.

(For this play to win, the score in the first period must go OVER 1.5 goals. Shop around as some places have gone to two goals.)

Take Washington Capitals -1.5 versus Ottawa Senators ( 7:00 pm EST, Tuesday 7 December 2020)

This game features two teams that could not be on more opposite ends of the spectrum. The Senators have been bottom feeders all this season, while the Capitals are the best team in the East. The Capitals are at home tonight and that spells trouble for the Senators.

This year, the Senators have been one of the worst defensive and offensive teams on the road. Ottawa has only been able to put together five road wins out of the twenty-two they have played. Scoring just 2.36 gpg and allowing 3.82 gpg, they are continuously beaten up on the road. Overall hasn’t been any better, either. They have won just sixteen of their forty-two games, and haven’t won in the last six. The fact that they have been playing so bad heading into this game is not good. The Capitals have dominated the Senators as of late, while the Senators have won just once in the last ten versus Washington, with an average score of 3.4 to 1.8.

The Capitals, on the other hand, are above-average in just about everything and it shows. Winning twenty-nine of the forty-three played, including 12-8 at home, they have been hard to beat. The Capitals are also averaging 3.6 goals per game, and that is well above average when compared to the rest of the league which averages 3.07 gpg. The Capitals are also owners of an above-average defense. They give up about three goals per game (2.95) to visiting teams when playing at home. They have dominated Ottawa and really do not like to let them score, which will continue tonight.

Washington is playing their perennial punching bag, the Ottawa Senators. There is nothing that has happened recently to change my mind on that, so I’m laying the goals with Washington. Take the Capitals -1.5 goals versus Ottawa.

Jacob’s Above Average Plays

Pick Management 5 years ago

written by Pick Management

Jacob’s Above Average Plays has two bowls games for you today including a College Football Playoff match up for the ages. To top it off, he’s giving you an NHL game that he knows will cash and that means more money for you!

Take Oklahoma+14 vs LSU (4:00 pm EST, Saturday 28 December 2019)

This is the first game in the College Football Playoff and it’s going to be a good one. To speak simply, LSU is above average in everything and so is Oklahoma. LSU has the nation’s number one offense and number twenty-two defense. They run a pro-style offense that leads to above-average scoring against opponents. Not only do they have great receivers, but they are being thrown to by this year’s Heisman Trophy winner, Joe Burrow, and that’s why they are going to win this game, but they won’t cover. Oklahoma has the nation’s second-ranked offense and twenty-fifth ranked defense. Oklahoma quarterback, Jalen Hurts, is one of the nation’s top quarterbacks and has been for the past few years. He found a place in Oklahoma and really started to shine. Oklahoma’s offense is above average in passing, rushing, yards per play and score. They dominated opponents all year and while they won’t be dominating in this game they will be scoring. The offense is set up to be fast-paced and wants to score. Hurts has 50 touchdowns on the year (32 passing, 18 rushing) and has beat LSU three times already while quarterback at Alabama. The Sooners suffered from turnover issues this year and that’s what this game comes down to, but I think Hurts can lead his team and will keep it close. Take the Sooners plus 14.

Take Memphis vs Penn State OVER 60 (12:00 pm EST, Saturday 28 December 2019)

These teams have been two above-average offenses all year. I don’t think this will be any different. Memphis played above average this year on both sides of the ball. They were able to shut down the opposing team’s pass offense with an above-average defense allowing an average of 200.69 pass yards per game. On offense, they are even better. Memphis was above average across the board with their offensive stats. Ranking 10th in the nation in total offense, they score an above-average 40.54 points per game, while keeping opponents to just 24.38 points per game. The Tigers average almost 200 yards per game rushing (196.23) and average 284.46 yards per game through the air. They gain an above-average amount of yards per play. Memphis ranks 9th nationally in yards per play, gaining 6.9 yards per attempt. They now take on a team with a similar makeup, as Penn State is above average across the board on offense. Penn State amasses an average of 402.2 yards per game on offense. They pass for 228.7 ypg and rush for 173.5 ypg which I really like because it shows a very balanced offense. A good above-average balanced offense usually means they can score. The Nittany Lions rank 23rd in the nation in points per game, scoring an average of 34.22 points a game. Penn State has an above-average defense. I don’t want to put too much stock into that because Penn State didn’t play the toughest schedule and better teams did score on them.

Former Memphis head coach, Mike Norvell, left the program to become Florida State’s next head coach and I think, due to that, they will be fired up!. Current Memphis coaches remained. I like that Assistant Coach, Ryan Silverfield, is now the head coach because he knows the system. He will fire up the team to show their former coach what he’s missing out on. I think both teams will move the play here and we will see a high scoring affair. Take the over.

Take Toronto -132 (in regulation, 60 Minute Line) vs NY Rangers (7:00 pm, Saturday 28 December 2019)

In this game, we have another case of two teams headed in different directions. Toronto is one of the NHL’s hottest teams, as of late, winning six out of their last six games. They are playing above average on both ends of the ice since Head Coach, Sheldon Keefe, took over. The Maple Leafs are averaging 3.54 goals per game on an average of 33.51 shots ranking them fourth overall in scoring and fifth in shots on goal. Toronto plays way above average at home and they are hard to beat there; winning four out of their last five games. They tend to slack off when up against big which allows more scoring late in games and leads to above-average game totals. I don’t want to confuse you with some of their defensive stats, we’ll just move on.

The Rangers are just below average all year. They can score goals, but they give up a ton which is why they lose. They are worse lately winning just two games in December. They haven’t fared well against the Atlantic Division this year, only winning one out of the nine games played. Winning just two out of their last seven games, the Rangers don’t play well against Toronto either. New York is scoring 3.22 goals per game, but they are allowing 3.27 which is good for 25^th in the league. I just think that Toronto is playing great hockey right now. They are returning home after a quick road trip and they just beat the Rangers on December 20^th. Take Toronto to win in regulation. (To win in regulation means that the team selected by the bettor must win in the first 60 minutes. If the game goes to overtime it’s a loss)

Cash with Flash Best Bets would prefer we won every game we played but we also realize winning every game just isn’t possible, but we really do try.

A 2-0 NHLday was a good thing. A 2-4 day in the NBA sucked big time but what can we do?

LosAngeles Clippers vs GoldenState Warriors

Cash with Flash Best Bets: Clippers -2

This gameopened with Los Angeles a one-point underdog and it’s currently sitting at Clippers-2. The Warriors had a difficult time dealing with Kawhi Leonardin last season’s Finals and the I don’t see them stopping him tonight eitherand Leonard has a better supporting cast in Los Angeles than he did in Toronto.Golden State has Stephen Curryand DraymondGreen, but their defense takes a huge hit without Klay Thompsonon the floor. I also think the Clippers bench is better than the Warriors. Cashwith Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Clippers to defeat Golden Statetonight and cover the two points.

Cash with the Flash Best Bets: NHL Thursday!

David Jones 6 years ago

written by David Jones

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets had a funny Wednesday. South Alabama failed to cover thespread and I suppose that shouldn’t be a surprise that Troy buried them andproved why they were favored by so many. At least we got the under and Cashwith the Flash Best Bets finished 1-1 with the NCAA games yesterday.

Then there were the hockey games and that didn’t go that well for Cash with the Flash best bets.

What sunk Cash with the Flash Best Bets was the Colorado Avalanche losing in overtime. If you’re keeping score, it was Cash with the Flash Best Bets sixth NHL overtime loss of the year and we’re less than three weeks in.

I guess that’s why they call it gambling, right?

Still, a 2-3day isn’t appealing to you and it certainly isn’t appealing to us at Win DailySports or Cashwith the Flash Best Bets and we’re going to keep plugging away and giveyou as much information as we possibly can in order for you to make an informedchoice and hopefully Cash with the Flash!

Cashwith the Flash Best Bets is going back to the well and visiting the National HockeyLeague tonight for our wagering action.

New YorkRangers (+105)vs NewJersey Devils (-125)

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: New York Rangers +105

The Rangershaven’t played in five days and will have had extra time to practice and maybefigure out how they could have lost a home matinee game to the Edmonton Oilerslast Saturday. The Rangers will start Alexandar Georgiev (1-0-0,1.00) between the pipes and he’s coming off a solid victory over the OttawaSenators in Ottawa.

New Jerseyis winless in four tries with two overtime losses and this team is young andfast. They also have a minus 16 goal differential this season and that isn’t agood thing. CorySchneider is tending the twine and he’s had a difficult time due to hisblueline and the youthful mistakes his young teammates have made this season.

Why theRangers?

Rest mattersmore than anything else in the NHL and the Rangers might be a bit rusty out ofthe gate, but they will settle down and the Rangers vets like Mika Zibanejad will takethis thing over. The Devils have yet to score a power-play goal, their penaltykill unit has a 57 percent success rate and New Jersey has been shut out twicein four games. Your mileage may vary but Cashwith the Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Rangers to defeat theDevils in tonight’s contest.

Cashwith the Flash Best Bets likes the following NHL games tonight.

Tampa BayLightning +100 over Boston Bruins -120

New YorkIslanders +110 over Winnipeg Jets -130

MontrealCanadians -160 over Minnesota Wild +140

Cash with the Flash Best Bets: NHL Saturday!

Cash withthe Flash Best Betshad a strong day yesterday with our NHL picks, winning both plays with plusmoney outcomes. Anaheim took care of business over Columbus at +125 and theCarolina Panthers defeated the New York Islanders by two goals for a +155profit on the night. Cashwith the Flash Bets went undefeated for the first time this week and weare elated about this.

That’snearly 300 bucks if you bet $100 dollars per game and considering how roughthis week has been at Cashwith the Flash Best Bets, it was a nice Friday night win.

Cash with the Flash Best Bets still has over a week before the NBA regular season kicks in and when it does, this column will be very busy.

Sign up NOW for WIN DAILY Premium Gold right here! Projections, wagering info, 24/7 expert chats and more!

Saturday has a full slate of National Hockey League games beginning at 1:00 pm ET so Cash with the Flash Best Bets need to get cracking!!

Edmonton Oilers vs New YorkRangers

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: New York Rangers -135

This onebegins at 1:00 pm ET and Edmonton is undefeated but none of their wins has comeagainst above .500 hockey teams. New York is also undefeated and has a qualitywin over the Winnipeg Jets and the other came against the Ottawa Senators. TheOilers are planning on starting MikkoKoskinen and the Rangers will likely counter with HenrikLundqvist guarding the cage.

Why theRangers?

It’s anearly start and let’s face it; New York City has plenty of things for young mento do at night and these young fellas from Edmonton are no exception. Koskinenhas been very good this season, but he hasn’t faced a good offense yet and theRangers have a good offense and the most successful power-play unit in the NHLthis season. New York also has Lundqvist and while his numbers don’t fairlyreflect a Hall of Fame career, he still is one of the best to ever put ongoalie pads and should be able to handle the Oilers this afternoon. Cash withthe Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Rangers to beat the Oilers onSaturday.

Tampa BayLightning vs Ottawa Senators

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: Tampa Bay -1.5 Goals +115

This onebegins at 4:00 pm ET and the Tampa Bay Lightning is just 2-2 this season andcoming off a 7-3 thumping over the Toronto Maple Leafs in Toronto. Ottawa iswinless in three tries and has scored eight goals over their past three games.It looks like AndreiVasilevskiy will guard the cage for Tampa Bay and CraigAnderson has been confirmed to start between the pipes for theSenators.

Why TampaBay?

We can’tplay the -260-money line price because there isn’t any value in that price. We can’tpick the Senators because Anderson has poor advanced metrics and aninexperienced blueline and up against a Lightning offense that has scored 18goals over their past four games with the reigning Vezina Trophy winnercrouching in the crease. If Tampa Bay beats Ottawa, and Cash with the FlashBest Bets believes the Lightning will defeat the Senators, it will likely be bymore than two goals. Cash with theFlash Best Bets suggests playing Tampa Bay to defeat Ottawa by morethan two goals on Saturday.

NashvillePredators vs Los AngelesKings

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: Nashville Predators -1.5 Goals +165

This is a6:00 pm ET start, and Nashville brings a 3-1-0 record into this contest and it’slikely that PekkaRinne will start in goal for the Predators. Los Angeles is 1-2-0 thisseason and likely guarding the cage for their Saturday home opener is JonathonQuick.

WhyNashville?

The money line price is okay at -155 but these are the Kings and playing in their home opener and while they would like to put on a good show for their home fans, the Predators are solid and have an experienced goaltender in Rinne patrolling the crease. Quick has been brutal this season and his inexperienced blueline shoulders part of the blame. Neither side’s special team is anything to write home about, but the Predators should be able to win this game against the Kings. Cash with the Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Predators to defeat the Kings by two goals or more Saturday evening.

Cashwith the Flash Best Bets has more MLB playoff and NHL action for tonight and I’mlooking forward to this Thursday night betting card.

St LouisCardinals (+130)vs Atlanta Braves(-140)

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: Atlanta Braves -140

Game one oftheir seven-game series begins this afternoon at 5:00 pm ET and pitting righty Miles Mikolas against leftyDallas Keuchel.This should be a great series between Central Division winner St Louis and EastDivision winner Atlanta.

Mikolas hasallowed 11 earned runs over his last 29.2 innings pitched and has a 5.40 ERAand a 4-8 record this season away from Busch Stadium. Mikolas has also allowed17 home runs over his 88.1 road inning pitched and up against a Braves offense with190 home runs this season against right-handed pitching and 131dingers at SunTrust Park.

Keuchel hasallowed 12 earned runs over the last 28 innings pitched and has a 2.74 ERA anda 4-3 record this season at SunTrust Park and allowed five home runs over his62.5 innings pitched at home this season. The Cardinals have hit 47 bombs offleft-handed pitching and 121dingers away from Busch Stadium this season.

Cashwith the Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Braves to defeat the CardinalsThursday evening. Mikolas isn’t very good on the road and allows too manyhome runs against a team that mashes home runs against right-handed pitching. Keuchelshould be able to do enough and then turn it over to its 10^th rankedbullpen over the past month.

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets doesn’t like the Dodgers series with the Nationals at alland will likely fade this series completely at Dodger Stadium. Maybe weconsider betting against Los Angeles when the series moves to Washington and weget a better number.

Let’s lookat the NHL games Cash with the Flash Best Bets has for you for tonight.

FloridaPanthers (+155)vs TampaBay Lightning (-175)

Cash withthe Flash Best Bet: Tampa Bay -175

We have a battle tonight at 7:00 pm ET between two Florida hockey teams that should be a fantastic game to watch. Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky helped knock Tampa Bay out of the playoffs last season when he was with Columbus and the Lightning get the chance to avenge that loss. The Lightning has reigning Vezina winner Andrei Vasilevskiy in the nets and the Panthers offense will have a difficult time scoring on him in his own barn. Cash with the Flash Best Bets suggests playing Tampa Bay to defeat Florida Thursday night.

Winnipeg Jets(+105) vs New YorkRangers (-125)

Cash withthe Flash Best Bets: New York Rangers -125

This onebegins tonight at 7:00 pm ET and the Jetshave major issues with their blueline. Winnipeg goaltender Connor Hellebuyck isgoing to have his hands full tonight with the likes of newly acquired sniperArtemi Panarin and Rangers number two pick of the 2019 NHL Draft selectionKaapo Kako. We fully understand Winnipeg has serious offensive firepower butthe Rangers have HenrikLundqvist between the pipes with a lot to prove after a mediocre 2019season. Cashwith the Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Rangers to defeat theJets Thursday evening.

Most Improved NHL Teams for DFS Purposes

Vincent Pensabene 6 years ago

written by Vincent Pensabene

The NHL off-season is an excellent opportunity for a team’s management to overhaul the lineups and add new talents and depth to their lines. Some teams objectively improved throughout the off-season, while others did not. A team’s off-season success is generally based on their acquisitions through free agency and trades, however could also be gauged based on new draftees and prospects set to break into the league. This article will outline three teams who have made the largest strides towards a successful season during the 2019 off-season. Here are your Most Improved NHL teams.

New York Rangers
(Most Notable Acquisition: Artemi Panarin)
The Rangers had a very busy offseason this year. After it looked as though they were destined for a rebuild after trading away serviceable winger Mats Zuccarello and second-line center Kevin Hayes, they instead brought new life into Manhattan. It began when they won the second overall pick in the 2019 Draft Lottery, which they used to select promising Finnish prospect Kappo Kakko. Following the lottery win, the Rangers traded up for stud defenseman Jacob Trouba, sending defenseman Neal Pionk the way of the Winnipeg Jets. This led the Rangers to acquire what is easily their largest splash of the summer, UFA Artemi Panarin. This could provide significant DFS value for Kakko as he may start the season alongside a strong veteran presence in “the Breadman”, not to mention he could benefit from Panarin’s point production, which totalled 87 points last season (28 Goals, 59 Assists).
Colorado Avalanche
(Most Notable Acquisition: Nazem Kadri)
The Aves were faced with quite a predicament leading into the offseason, and the fact that they’ve managed take such positive strides to sort themselves out of it is why I have them so high on this list of the Most Improved NHL Teams. Tough decisions had to be made and Colorado could very easily have both long and short term benefits from the moves made this offseason. After trading Matt Duchene to the Ottawa Senators in November 2017, they were given Ottawa’s draft selection for the 2019 NHL draft. Despite Ottawa finishing dead last in the league after a dismal 2018-19 campaign. The Aves only received the 4th overall selection from Ottawa which turned into defenseman Bowen Byram. The problem facing the Avalanche during this offseason was that they have many expiring entry-level contracts, which the team will have to deal with all at once. In order to make up cap room, the Aves traded away Tyson Barrie to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Nazem Kadri and Calle Rosen. Rosen is still a young defenseman at 25 years old and could come in handy down the stretch for the Avalanche as a third-line pairing. However, the main draw for the Avalanche was Nazem Kadri. The 28-year-old center is on an extremely team-friendly deal which is set to last until 2022-23. This new room in the salary cap allowed Colorado to sign Sam Girard this offseason and will allow Colorado to resign Graves, Zadorov and Makar. They also picked up a serviceable NHL winger in Joonas Donskoi who created moments of brilliance while playing for the Sharks. The Avalanche may not be out of the woods yet as they have a bit of goalie trouble after losing their starter Semyon Varlamov in free agency and more notably are still in negotiations with Star winger and RFA Mikko Rantanen. (If you would like to read about other star RFA’s who have yet to sign a new deal check out our article!)
New Jersey Devils
(Most Notable Acquisition: PK Subban)
After a disappointing 2018-19 campaign, the Devils had one of the most notable offseasons in the entire league. It began after the Devils selected future star Jack Hughes with the first overall pick in the 2019 Entry Draft and came to a head when the Devils traded with the Nashville Predators for franchise defenseman P.K. Subban. The Subbanator will join a Garden State team which already had two former first overall picks in Taylor Hall (2010) and Nico Hischier (2017). Hall sat out for most of the 2018-19 season and will have a completely rejuvenated team when he returns. This team could provide huge DFS value for Hughes as he is set to play on the Devils top Power Play unit alongside both Hall and Subban. The Devils also signed a strong depth winger in Wayne Simmonds and traded for KHL stud Nikita Gusev (who has yet to play a minute on NHL ice…) There is no doubt that the Hudson River Rivalry just got much more intense with two of the Most Improved NHL Teams.

Honorable Mentions: Toronto Maple Leafs (Barrie), Arizona Coyotes (Kessel), Dallas Stars (Pavelski)
