Welcome to Zak’s Puck Picks!! I started in Cash with Flash Handicapping Challenge and have been heating up. I am super excited to keep the momentum going and win some serious money talking Puck Picks with all of you! 

A big part of my life is my three kids. Each one of them holds a different attribute that I would personally use to aid me in deciding what picks to make. My twins Pork and Ribs and their little brother Bean (not their real names but very appropriate nicknames).

Pork is a doer. He is one to dive into a situation and figure itout as it unfolds, usually with great success. In terms of the puck pick, itwill be a gut feeling pick and be backed with some stats to explain the feeling. 

Ribs, he likes to observe the situation, take in all theinformation, and then make an educated decision on what his next step will be.His puck pick will be focused around teams that are on hot streaks, eitheragainst a team in a matchup or on a winning streak. 

Now Bean may sound cute and innocent, but he is a wild man. Not alot of thought goes into actions and if there is some thought, its gearedtowards “how can I push Dad’s buttons”. His puck pick will be a little more onthe risky side. There will be reasons why I think we should go this way.

As cook by trade and hockey as a passion since I was 3 years old,let’s get some puck picks in the oven and make some dough shall we?

Puck Record for February (55-47) 53.93%

Puck Recap: Wednesday night (1-2)
The Pittsburgh Penguins are sliding with four straight losses, despite getting 36 shots on Calvin Peterson. Only one goal and a two to one loss. Colorado pulled out a win, sadly it was only by one goal over the Buffalo Sabres. The Vegas Golden Knights, however, gave us a win and continued their home winning streak with a three to nothing shutout performance from Marc Andre Fleury. Now let’s move on to Thursday’s puck action.

Pork’s Puck Pick- Washington Capitals-143
With zero injuries to report and making a move to strengthen their struggling defense, the Washington Capitals look like a prime candidate to get on a solid run before the playoffs. Brandon Dillon was a solid add on the back end for the Capitals and will hopefully make them a little batter in their own end. The addition of Illya Kovalchuk will add some depth scoring and another crazy good shot on the power play. Losers of their last three games, including a loss in Washington in a shoot out, the Jets have been struggling. Puck stopper Connor Hellebuyck has been fantastic this year and has hidden a lot of the defensive issues around the club. However already confirmed by the Goalie Project on twitter, Ilya Samsonov will take his sixteen – five – one record into Winnipeg. This game should stay close, but with the Capital’s additions, I believe the have enough to pull out the win.

Rib’s Puck Pick- Vancouver Canucks-130
Vancouver has won four straight matchups against the Kings who are coming off a back to back against the Pittsburgh Penguins. After Losing Jakob Markstrom to a knee injury, backup puck stopper Thatcher Demko had an inspiring performance against Montreal in his last start. In a tight race in the Pacific Division, Vancouver needs to have a solid road trip and beat teams they should such as the Ottawa Senators. After clearing out their top goal scorer and some other depth pieces for some stellar draft picks, a depleted Ottawa team is also missing Anthony Duclair to an injury. He may not be ready to go against the Canucks tonight. I feel quite confident in Vancouver on the money line tonight.

Beans Puck Pick- New York Rangers+110
The Rangers have been on quite the run lately and have themselves just outside a playoff spot. If puck stopper Alexandar Georgiev starts this game, which has been confirmed again by The Goalie Project on Twitter, the Rangers should continue their winning ways. The Rangers have won eight of their last ten games and are currently on a four-game win streak. Three of those four games were on the road. Between the Canadians and Rangers, the road team has won the last three, which is where New York find themselves tonight. The Canadians also made some moves at the deadline which gained some draft picks but lost some depth. I like the Rangers in the upset this evening.

Houston’s Puck Pick- Calgary Flames +118
The Calgary Flames just took care of business against the Boston Bruins, in Boston, a place where the Bruins had only lost twice. The Flames are red hot on the road and have both their top two lines rolling. The defense looked a lot better against the Bruins, and there are even talks that they might get their Captain, Mark Giordano, back for this contest. The flames are nineteen- thirteen- two on the road this season whereas the Predators are fifteen- twelve- three- one at home this year. The Flames are boasting a six and one record on the road in their last seven games.the away team, Calgary in this contest has won six of the last seven between these two. Pekka Rinne is questionable to puck stop this one as he is currently out with an illness. The Flames should squeeze out the win in “smashville” (Home of the Draft Kings hockey championship, Good Luck Javi Prellezo) tonight.

Zak’s Puck Pick – New Jersey Devils +140
These are two teams trending in different directions. The San Jose Sharks have lost their last five straight, one of those was a two to one loss to the Devils in New Jersey. The Devils have won four of their last five. Puck stopper McKenzie Blackwood has won his last six starts with impressive wins over Washington and a shutout win in Philadelphia. After the trade deadline moves, I believe the Devils have come out the better team for this contest and most definitely the healthier. With only one injury to Will Butcher, the Devils seem to be in better shape than the Sharks with four, two centers and two defensemen. The Devils are twenty third in goals per game facing the harks who is twenty-ninth, compared toe the Devils twenty-eighth in goals-against vs San Jose in 27th. The goals for the discrepancy is what I believe lead the Devils to victory. After all, they say, the Devil is in the details.

There may be a few other matchups I may like, however it depends who the puck stopper is. Stay tuned to the #nhl and # sports betting tabs on Discord, as well as Twitter for any changes or more potential matchups as more news unfolds!

NHL Update

The NHL Playoff picture is beginning to take shape. With about 70% of the season behind us here are your division leaders and their respective Stanley Cup Odds. The Capitals have maintained their points lead over the surging Penguins, while the Lightning has won 8 in a row in an attempt to catch the Bruins. All 4 teams see their odds stay about the same to win the Stanley Cup, while the entire Pacific Division attempts to sort out who will represent them in the playoffs and who will settle for a Wildcard spot.

Puck Record for February (54-45) 54.54%

Puck Recap: Monday night (2-1)

The new-look Edmonton first line of Connor McDavid, Andre Athanasiou and Tyler Ennis looked great last night. That was the only bright spot for the Oilers, handing out the lone “L”. The Devils took care of Detroit four to one with Cory Schneider looking like a version, not his former self and the Minnesota Wild hung on to sneak by Columbus in regulation by a score of five to four. Now let’s drop the puck on tonight’s three-game slate.

Pork’s Puck Pick- Colorado Avalanche PUCK LINE +119
The Avalanche had money to spend at the deadline, however, were quiet in participation. This must mean Joe Sakic has confidence in the squad on the ice. I would if your back up puck stopper is the NHL’s first star of the week. The Buffalo Sabres have been playing better lately, however the last time they played Colorado at home in Buffalo, they were handed a six to one loss. I do not believe that they have improved enough to keep this game within 2. Trading away depth pieces Evan Rodrigues and Connor Sheary doesn’t help their case either.

Rib’s Puck Pick- Pittsburgh Penguins -182
Pittsburgh has won four of the last five matchups between these clubs. I think Pittsburgh improved their bottom six depth with the Buffalo additions of Connor Sheary and Evan Rodrigues. Both of the Penguins puck stoppers have been real solid this season. With LA being third overall on shots per game and thirtieth in goals per game, whoever stars has some for sure DFS value. The LA Kings are a shell of their former selves and will struggle to keep pace with the depth of the full four lines of Pittsburgh.

Beans Puck Pick- Las Vegas Golden Knights–167
The New look speedy Oilers, lost to Anaheim last night in a game they needed to win. Now the head into Las Vegas, a team that has won their last five straight at home and six games in a row. The additions of a strong backup goalie bin Robin Lehner and centre Nick Cousins are fantastic pick ups for Las Vegas. As long as the Knights can stay out of the penalty box against Edmonton’s first ranked powerplay, I think they have a great chance to put the Oilers away.

There may be a few other matchups I may like, however it depends who the puck stopper is. Stay tuned to the #nhl and # sports betting tabs on Discord, as well as Twitter for any changes or more potential matchups as more news unfolds!

PuckRecord for February (52-44)

PuckRecap: Monday night (1-0)

Onlyone game last night, fourteen tonight! Last night Columbussnuck out an ugly win against the Senators. Most definitely the least excitingpart of the NHL action toady. We’ll get into that a bit later. Will just make afew picks today, as a lot of the lines are -200 or lower. Let’s look at tonight’s puck action.

Pork’sPuck Pick- New Jersey Devils – 130

TheDetroit Redwings got rid of Andre Athanasiou and Mike Green to the EdmontonOilers, two quite skilled players where the Devil’s, in my opinion didn’t losemuch. Sammi Vatenen, who has been injured for quitea while and Wayne Simmons, a big body on the power play and a solid voicein the room. Simmons could be replaced on the power play by Myles Wood in myopinion and would gain more speed there as well. With Louis Domingue gettingshipped off to Vancouver, it is now McKenzie Blackwood’s net to puck stop fulltime. He has won his last six starts with two shutouts and has only allowedseven goals in that span. Both games this season the Devils have won in NewJersey by scores of four to one and five to one. Two reasons why I am nottaking the puck line is, Detroit Redwings are keeping games close lately and thisgame is in Detroit. I feel confident in the Devils on the money line.

Rib’sPuck Pick- Minnesota Wild-175

TheColumbus Blue Jackets played Ottawa last night and squeezed out a win. As thatpick was a puck pickwinner, it didn’t instil any type of confidence movingforward. As Derek Grant was acquired by Columbus at the deadline and shouldsuit up tonight, I don’t believe he will be a big difference maker in scoringgoals, which the Jackets so desperately need. The Ottawa win snapped an eight gamelosing skid for Columbus who have also had trouble keeping pucks out of theirnet. It was quite yesterday in Minnesota interns of deadline moves. There hadbeen a rumor that Zach Parise was headed to the Islanders for Andrew Ladd andsome other, however that never came to fruition. The home team has won both ofthe games in the season series and tonight that’s where the Wild find them selves. With a six and fiverecord in February, I see the Wild winning tonight and continuing bro push forthe playoffs.

BeansPuck Pick- Edmonton Oilers -152

Oneof the winners of trade deadline day was the Oilers! They picked up AndreAthanasiou and Tyler Ennis today as well as Mike Green last night. This adds alot of depth to the Oilers and strengthens and already incredible power play.There is now the ability to split up McDavid and Draisaitl and still have scoringpower throughout the line up. The speed of both McDavid and Athanasiou shouldterrify top defensive units and still keep Draisaitl and Nugent Hopkinstogether on the second line, who showed great chemistry with McDavid out of thelineup. While the Anaheim ducks have been keeping games close lately, they havenot been able to pull out many wins. I see this test continuing tonight as theOilers come away victorious with their shiny new players.

Pucknews and notes around the NHL;

Thetrade deadline didn’t disappoint today there are a lot of different takes outthere. I thought I would add mine to to the mix. I will try to keep this asbetting related as I can.

LasVegas Golden Knights

Ithink the Knights made the most significant move in acquiring Robin Lehner fromChicago. This was one of their two glaring needs and this move could shore upboth. Vegas did also acquired Alex Martinez from LA however to have a stellarbackup in Lehner should give Marc Andre Fluery some much needed rest for theplayoff run. This move I think should be the largest jump in Stanley CupFavourite

EdmontonOilers

Iam not sure that the Oilers did enough on their back end to make a long run inthe playoffs. Mike Green is a nice piece, but I was hoping for more of astay at home defenseman. However the addition of Andre Athanasiou and TylerEnnis add someone to skate with McDavid and added depth to the second and thirdlines. With a team that already puts the puck in the net often, especially onthe power play, adding a thirty goal scorer in Athanasiou can only help thosestats. These moves make them right there as a potential favorite to win the Pacific.

TheNew York Islanders

TheIslanders needed scoring. I believe they got a great piece in Jean-PierreGabriel Pageau. After the trade they also signed him to a six year, thirtymillion dollar extension according to the New York Islanders twitter channel. Iam not sure what this does in term of betting however I know believe they getinto the playoffs and could for sure be a contender for a first round upset. There are a few other matchups I may like, however it depends who thepuck stopper is.

Puck Recap: Sunday night (4-1)

We nailed all of the four article puck picks with Dallas, Calgary, Sy. Louis and New York Islanders. The live bet on the Winnipeg Jets after the first period was the lone loss on the night. Let’s get into a slow puck night on the ice. 

The Puck Pick- Columbus Blue Jackets -190

With only a one-game slate we are going to take the easy money line here. It appears as though the Blue Jackets will have their number one puck stopper back on Joonas Korpisalo back on time for this contest. Ottawa has only won six games on the road this season. This battle comes down to defense where the Blue Jackets rank second in the league in goals-against vs Ottawa in the twenty-eighth spot. Columbus has struggled to set the goal cannon sitting in twenty sevenths in the league compared to Ottawa who is actually one spot better in twenty-sixth. Tonight is the night Columbus ends their eight-game skid in a tight-checking defensive Battle. 

Puck news and notes around the NHL;

This is something I want to start doing more consistently in these articles to start getting ready for the playoffs and potential mismatches baling the way, as well as stay up to date on some important goings-on around the league. Tomorrow is a trade deadline day. One of my favorite days of the season. I feel bad for the players having to up and move their lives, but the potential impact they can make to their new team down the stretch and going into the playoffs is very exciting. Here are some moves that happened tonight

Tampa Bay signs free agent defenseman Zach Bogosian

You can never have enough quality d-men coming down the stretch in case of injury or poor play. And the Lightning didn’t give anything up in return.

Washington traded a third-round draft pick for Illya Kovalchuk

Penalty kills every should be scares of two guys that can blast the puck like Alex Ovechkin and Illya Kovalchuk.

Detroit trade Mike Green to Edmonton for Kyle Brodziak and a conditional draft pick in either 2020 or 2021.

Mike Green still has some left in the tank. His experience in the NHL and the playoffs could be a great asset for this young Oilers team. It might be an upgrade on an already deadly powerplay unit as well.
