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 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!

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.
