NHL Betting Predictions March 12th

Sharks logoThere are five games in the NHL tonight and a few of them have some serious playoff implications.  I’ve been on a bit of a roll lately with my picks and the season record now sits at (126-136-1) for -4.55 units.

San Jose Sharks @ Edmonton Oilers

The Sharks have been playing awfully, but in truth they should have a good team.  A game against the Oilers may be just what the doctor ordered to get them out of their funk.  I like the Sharks in this one even though they have been playing poorly for the last month.  The team simply has too much skill to miss the playoffs and they will know how important every point is from this point forward so I expect them to do everything they can to win this game against the second worst team in the league tonight.

Nashville Predators @ Phoenix Coyotes

The Coyotes have been very streaky this year and although they did win their last game it was against a Sharks team that has looked very bad over the past month.  The Coyotes lost their previous 5 games, most of which were against sub par teams.  The Predators have continued to play very good hockey after the trade deadline and they have won 5 of their last 7.  I expect them to get another win tonight in Phoenix.
