A great week in the NHL continues with an excellent 9-game slate. There is a ton on the line among tonight's matchups as fringe wildcard teams battle for massively important 2 points. The Blues are chasing the Kings, both of whom are playing tonight, as well as the Islanders who are chasing down the Capitals. Elsewhere, there is a big-time heavyweight bout between the Bruins an d Hurricanes, along with the Jets looking to catch the Avalanche in the Central with a win and Colorado loss. This is a night of hockey you will not want to miss.
Let’s get into my 3-leg NHL parlay for today’s action, and you can also find out our experts’ NHL predictions for tonight’s big matchups.
Bruins win (+130)
Yes, the Hurricanes have played very well lately. But so too have the Bruins. Boston has just just gotten the job done all season long to the tune of 103 points and still a look at the Presidents’ Trophy. That in mind, any time they get +130 outright odds like this, it is inherently good value, even against another strong team.
Most recently, the Bruins have won 3 out of their last 4 games. Wins included the Panthers, Capitals, and Predators. Their loss in that span was 3-1 with an empty net goal against the Lightning. That is a stretch of more impressive opponents than Carolina has faced recently. The Bruins are a good team in good form with good value here.
