After an incredible 14-game Saturday, we have a rather chill Sunday to round out the weekend. However, the action does get started early once again. All 4 games are afternoon matchups due to the Super Bowl taking center stage in the evening. It's likely to be a rather strange day on the ice, but that can provide opportunity as well. We've used that fact to make a very simple mega parlay that still provides an incredible payout.

San Jose Sharks 3-way ML (+270) over Washington Capitals
To be clear, the Capitals are the better team in this matchup. However, let's take a look at the spot they're in. They were just in Boston yesterday and pulled off their best win of the season taking down the NHL-best Bruins. Not only is that a physically draining win, but an emotionally draining one. Meanwhile, the Sharks were one of the few teams not in action yesterday.'
While they're goaltending is an issue, they did recently defeat the Lightning in Tampa Bay after trailing 3-1 in the 1st period. The Caps will likely still be able to score on the Sharks, but with them being the ones on the back-to-back and traveling, this could be a major letdown spot for them. On top of all that, the Sharks defeated the Caps 4-1 just prior to the All-Star break. That was also in Washington, so look for San Jose's Timo Meier to try and put on a show for his future new team before the trade deadline.
