Corey Perry came up huge and basically single handedly destroyed the Sharks last night forcing us to lose a unit; something that has not happened in a while. Tonight we look to back back on a fairly quiet Thursday night. Check back tomorrow for more NHL betting predictions and expect a game of the week pick to be sent out very soon.
Minnesota Wild @ Vancouver Canucks
The Wild have never regained their swagger after slipping out of playoff contention about a month ago. Add in an injury to their top scorer, Martin Havlat, and the team will have a very difficult time beating the Vancouver Canucks, who lead the league with 113 points. The Canucks have lost two straight and I expect them to come out firing at home to try to build some momentum heading towards the playoffs. Corey Perry also had four points last night and now sits just 3 points back of Daniel Sedin for the Art Ross trophy. You can expect the Sedin twins to be on their A game in order to get the team back on track and solidify that the Art Ross trophy stays in the family. I’m expecting at least 2 points from each Sedin this evening. The entire Canucks team needs to step up and a game against a struggling Wild team should be just the medicine.
My Pick: Vancouver Canucks (-1.5) +125
As you may have noticed I generally use the best odds out of Bookmaker.com, Sportsbook.com and Bodog.com because I feel these are the best sportsbooks for NHL bettors online. That being said if you are interested in learning about more betting websites I recommend you do so because the more sportsbooks you have accounts with the more line shopping you can do. And as you will have noticed on our NHL betting tips page. Line shipping is just as, if not more important, than picking the winning team more often than not.
