The end of the week is approaching and the NHL is giving fans a great 9-game slate to help get us there. The first game of the day will be a little matinee action as the Red Wings visit the Senators for a 2:00 pm ET start. The remaining 8 games will begin at 7:00 pm ET with the final puck being dropped in arguably tonight’s best game at 10:30 pm ET between the Panthers and Kings.

NHL mega parlay odds: +927
Vancouver Canucks ML over Calgary Flames (+100)
Getting the Canucks at plus-money is too much value to pass up. They are tied for the most points in the Western Conference and they are 8-1-1 in their last 10 games. Their opponents, the Flames, are 5-8-2 with a -14 goal differential. The Canucks would still look appealing at -120, so I’ll take the plus-money and run.
The Canucks are scoring the most goals per game in the league while the Flames score the 5th-fewest. Vancouver also allows the 4th-fewest goals per game in the NHL while Calgary allows the 10th-most. This one looks lopsided in favor of the Canucks.
St. Louis Blues -1.5 over San Jose Sharks (+140)
The Blues are enjoying a nice November with a 5-2-0 record including wins over the Devils, Avalanche and Lightning and they have a favorable matchup against the Sharks tonight. The Blues should be able to take care of business just fine if they can bring any semblance of their recent form into the matchup.
These are 2 points the Blues will not want to let get away as they play the Kings on Saturday and then have a quick turnaround to Anaheim on Sunday, so it will not get any easier after tonight. Look for them to come out with a little bit of jam and run up the score on a bad Sharks team.

Florida Panthers ML over LA Kings (+114)
This is the heavyweight bout of tonight’s schedule. Due to consecutive Kings losses this week, things look a little bit better for the Panthers. Florida has won 5 straight games by a combined score of 23-15 and that streak is part of a 10-2-1 run. This team is playing great hockey reminiscent of their run to the Stanley Cup Final.
This is another game where the plus-money has appeal. These teams are much closer than the Canucks and Flames and obviously one of them was going to be the favorite. But if the Kings were -115 and the Panthers were -105, that still would have made sense. Getting Florida at plus-money has appeal right now regardless of the opponent.
