mitrash natalyushkaTI 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?
All odds are referenced from vegasinsider.com. The source of information comes from Newsday.sports.gracenote.com unless otherwise specified. I will play ALL the picks mentioned in these articles.
Puck Record for February (61-51) 54.46%
Puck Recap: Thursday night (4-0)
Today we received wins from Philadelphia, Minnesota, Colorado and a +1.5 from the Anaheim Ducks (who won outright). That’s enough bragging, on to tonight’s puck picks!
Pork’s Puck Pick- Nashville Predators -143
Nashville is coming off of a gritty win at home against Calgary, to say the least. Scoring with 0.1 seconds left to take the game to overtime where they pulled out the victory. Colorado is coming off of a 3-2 win last night against Carolina where the number one puck stopper had to make forty-five saves. This leads me to believe that they will go to Leafs cast off Michael Hutchinson to tend the twine in this game with a four, nine and one record, a 3.66 goals-against average and an 8.66 save percentage. Now, this is a new start, however, I don’t think that will be enough to make him a solid puck stopper again. I think Nashville scores early and takes advantage of a tired Colorado group with sub-par goaltending.
Rib’s Puck Pick- Ottawa Senators -167
I never thought that I would be confidently writing up the Ottawa Senators in a winning manor this year. Yet here we are. With a 16-13-3 home record at home compared to a 5-26-1-1 road record for the Detroit Redwings, chances are already good the Senators take this one. Not to mention that Ottawa has actually been playing well over their last six games at home, tallying four wins in that span. Both of these team are not great so positive stats are hard to come by, however, Ottawa has been keeping games close and can put the puck on the net. Detroit in their last four games has been outscored nineteen to five. I feel confident Ottawa pulls out the win in this contest
Beans Puck Pick- St. Louis Blues-150
St. Louis is on a six-game win streak and puck stopper Jordan Binnington has five of those wins. The Blues also have a two to one edge in the season series. After beating the stars five to one in their last meeting in Dallas I see more of the same from the Blues this evening. Ben Bishop has struggled in his last two games letting in nine goals between the two contests. The Blues have been scoring quite regularly as well with a total of nineteen in their last five games. I think the Blues repeat their performance against the stars and take a three to one stranglehold on the season series.
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.

Before the first puck of the season dropped for the 2019-2020 NHL season we offered Over/Under Point Totals for each team. The Islanders and Blue Jackets are on their way to hitting the over while the Devils and Red Wings are running out of gas to get them over the finish line.
