Andy’s Best NHL Bets & Predictions

“Columbus the other night, we took the under on them because they have not enough offense and they were going against Ottawa, who is embracing a little bit more of a defense — key word is a little bit. But now they’re at home and they’re facing Washington. I don’t look at Washington as some team who’s lighting up the lamp, and they’re gonna be going on the road against a team who doesn’t light up the lamp, and they have the under at 6.5.”

Two teams struggling to score goals has Andy on the under on 6.5, and be sure to get this bet in now, as the line may move closer to puck drop.

And whether you agree or not, be sure to head over to OddsShopper and check out all of our tools to make the best NHL bets, props and predictions you can for tonight’s slate of hockey action.

NHL Top Stacks Tool

When making decisions about what players to include in your lineups you should consider more than just projection. You should consider upside as well as how highly owned they will be. We run thousands of simulations on every slate. For that slate, we tell you how often each line ends up as one of the top 2 stacks on the slate. You can compare those probabilities to their ownership to get a good approximation if the public likes the line as well as our simulations do. If a line’s ownership is below these metrics then they are probably a good play and you can gain an advantage on the field when they perform well and vice versa.
