NHL Over/Under Point Totals Betting 2011-12 Season

The over/under point totals for every team in the NHL are out at SportsInteraction.com, one of our top rated NHL sportsbooks for Canadians.  The oddsmakers have set a total amount of points that each team is likely to get throughout the season and you can bet on whether you believe the team will finish the 82 game NHL season with more or fewer than that number of points.  To see the totals for all 30 teams visit SportsInteraction.com and check under the NHL futures tab on the left sidebar.

The team that has the highest total is the Washington Capitals with an over/under of 107.5 points, while the Senators have the lowest total with an over/under of just 74.5.

Predictions

Toronto Maple Leafs – 89.5

The Maple Leafs have improved and I will agree that the team looks better than it has in past seasons, but 89.5 points puts them right on the bubble for playoff contention.  The Leafs haven’t been in the 90’s for points since 06-07 when they finished in 9th place in the Eastern Conference and the team just does not have the depth up front or the sure thing in net.  It is possible, but I think this total is higher than it should be due to all of the Maple Leafs fans in Canada.  The smart money is on the under here.

Play: Toronto Maple Leafs under 89.5

Vancouver Canucks – 106.5

The 106.5 may look high, but when you consider the division that the Canucks play in you will begin to realize that it should be easy for them to accumulate points this season.  The Flames, Oilers, Wild and Avalanche are all sub par teams and the Canucks will take advantage of this.  They should once again finish with close to as many points as they earned last season (117).

Play: Vancouver Canucks over 106.5

Ottawa Senators – 74.5

The Ottawa Senators are really taking a beating by experts and oddsmakers prior to this season.  They have the lowest total at Sports Interaction and are ranked 30th in ESPN’s power rankings for the season.  However the fact is the Senators won plenty of games with a worse team at the end of last season and the addition of Craig Anderson in net should win them many games that they would have lost with Elliott or Leclaire last year.  Filatov is a nice addition to the top 6 forwards and although the team isn’t deep in the forward positions, the defense such as Gonchar and Karlsson should generate scoring opportunities.

Play: Ottawa Senators over 74.5

  1. After 65 games the Senators have already won me one of these bets! And the other two are looking solid as well.
