NHL Betting Predictions April 16th

bet on the Winnipeg JetsI wasn’t able to get the reasoning up for my four picks from yesterdays games, but I did get the picks up fairly early and I can through with a 2-1 night.  The Senators vs Bruins game was cancelled because of the bombings in Boston and I think that was definitely the right thing to do.  There are plenty of games tonight with which to get some good action on.

Season Record To Date: 57-56 for +2.56 units.

Tampa Bay Lightning @ Winnipeg Jets

The Lightning have a 6-14-1 record on the road this year and they head on a long trip to face their division rival Jets, who have won 3 in a row and are battling for a playoff spot.  The Jets are 11-9 at home this season, but they have been on fire this home stand, having scored 15 goals and only given up 4 in their last 3 games.  The Lightning just aren’t a very good team this year and I expect the Jets to find a way to win another game and put themselves right into the thick of things in the Eastern Conference race.

Vancouver Canucks @ St. Louis Blues

The Canucks battled to a 5-2 win in Nashville last night and will play once again tonight in St. Louis.  The Blues though are a very streaky team and right now they are on two game losing streak and their offense has been gone for quite some time.  In their last 5 games the Blues have only managed to put 5 goals on the board (even though they won 3 of those games with 3 straight shut outs).  This simply can’t continue, but the Canucks aren’t going to be the answer for them as Vancouver has stepped up their game of late winning 7 of their last 10 to hold a commanding lead in the Northwest Division race.  I like the Canucks as dogs in this game, especially with the Blues not being able to score and only having a 9-8-1 record at home this season.
