With NFL Week 7 fully in the rearview mirror, it's time for the NHL to take over with a full 10-game slate. We've got teams on back-to-backs and others very far from home. We're finally starting to get a feel for who teams are going to be this season, and we've targeted our best plays for tonight's slate. By piecing together just 3 of them for a parlay, we can have quite a mega payout.
Before we dive in, be sure to check out our NHL picks for today's action.
Detroit Red Wings 3-way ML (+130) over New Jersey Devils
The Red Wings have already cashed 2 best bets for us this season, including their recent 5-1 domination over the Anaheim Ducks. It's surprising to see them not listed as heavier favorites tonight given the situation. Detroit has already taken down the Devils this year, and that was on the road. They were able to do so in convincing 5-2 fashion as well.' It was the Wings on the second night of a back-to-back in that win, and now it will be New Jersey heading into Detroit in the same situation.'
It's clear that the Wings new-look roster is already working together perfectly and former-St. Louis Blues goaltender Vile Husso has been a stud in net. Not only has Detroit already crushed the Devils on the road this season, they did the same against them last year. The Wings weren't nearly as strong as they are now, and they still defeated New Jersey 3 times last season and all of them came by multiple goals. While Detroit bolstered their roster in the offseason, the Devils are much the same. That's bad news for a team that allowed the 4th-most goals in the NHL and will now have a backup goalie between the pipes.'
