Why These Picks?

‍

CLB Blue Jackets v MIN Wild: Minnesota started this season off hot with a shutout win (on the road, no less…) over the St. Louis Blues, 5-0. Meanwhile, the Blue Jackets kicked off their season with a loss on the road to the Nashville Predators. While I do think Columbus will have a decent year, the Wild looked completely dominant in their first game and should have little issue pulling off a victory at home sans OT. As far as recent history goes, Minnesota has won 8 of their last 10 encounters with the Blue Jackets. I’ll take the Wild to win in regulation for plus money here, friends.

‍

PHI Flyers v CAR Hurricanes: Not only are the Hurricanes arguably one of the best home teams in the league, but they’ve won 9 of their last 10 meetings with Philadelphia. 4 of Carolina’s last 5 victories over the Flyers have been by at least 2 goals; I fully expect the Hurricanes to win by multiple scores here. With Philadelphia playing their second road game in a row and Carolina being arguably more comfortable playing their second straight home game, I’ll take the Canes to cover the PL.

‍

DAL Stars v COL Avalanche: I love a high-scoring affair here. Dallas bagged a whopping 5 goals in their first game this season against the formidable Winnipeg Jets, and the Avalanche have a notoriously solid home record (26-12 last season). I expect both offenses to turn up here and give each goalie a run for their money. Take the Over to cash.
