Believe it or not, we only have a few Saturdays left of the NHL regular season, so we have to enjoy days like today’s huge 11-game slate to the fullest. To help you do just that, we’ve provided the analysis for our experts’ best NHL parlay picks for today. We have games beginning as early as 1 PM ET, and we’re targeting those two early matchups, so let’s get right into it!
Along with our NHL mega parlay, be sure to check out all of our NHL predictions for today’s action!
Bruins 3-way ML (+105)
Jets 3-way ML (+115)
Panthers 3-way ML (+170)
Parlay odds +1090
Boston Bruins 3-way ML (+105) over Philadelphia Flyers
As mentioned, one of the first puck-drops today is a classic matchup between the Boston Bruins and Philadelphia Flyers. It’s been a few seasons since we’ve been able to call this a potential playoff series preview, but we’re finally back to that this year. It’s also a matchup that we saw just recently, as these teams faced off exactly a week ago. That was yet another win for Boston, as they have continued to own the Flyers. They have now won 7 straight against Philly, and they nearly always do so in convincing fashion.
Of their last five wins against them, four of them have come by multiple goals, including a 6-0 and 4-1 win. So, to get plus-money odds without them even needing to pull off a multi-goal win is as valuable as it gets. We should also see a highly-motivated Bruins squad, as they recently leap-frogged the Florida Panthers in the Atlantic Division, but have the New York Rangers and Vancouver Canucks hot on their tails for the Presidents’ Trophy. So, we’re starting our NHL parlay picks for today with the Bruins continuing their dominance over the Flyers.
Winnipeg Jets 3-way ML (+115) over New York Islanders
The other early 1 PM ET puck-drop today takes place in New York, but we’re going to be focused on the road team. That would be the Winnipeg Jets, who have been in an incredible 3-way battle with the Colorado Avalanche and Dallas Stars for the top spot in the Central Division. Therefore, there should be no taking their foot off the gas these last few weeks of the season. Overall, we should see a low-scoring game, but we still trust the Jets goaltending far more than the Islanders.
That may seem strange today with New York’s Ilya Sorokin, but Winnipeg’s Connor Hellebuyck is a massive -750 favorite to win the Vezina Trophy for a reason. He has led the Jets to being the team to allow the fewest goals per game, which is why they won this matchup back in January. Being an inter-conference clash, it’s not one that we see often, but Winnipeg was the clearly stronger team in the most recent meeting. Along with the Islanders on a 6-game losing streak, we’re backing Winnipeg with the 2nd leg of our NHL parlay picks for today.
Florida Panthers 3-way ML (+170) over New York Rangers
The 3rd and final play from our NHL parlay picks for today is yet another road team. It’s also another game in which we’re fading New York. This time, it’s the Rangers, which may seem surprising. They have been one of the best teams all season, but so have the Panthers. In other words, this is a very realistic Eastern Conference Finals preview. In fact, these are 2 teams that have been in each of the last 2 Eastern Conference Finals. Regardless, we’re backing a motivated Florida squad; as we mentioned earlier, the Bruins recently took over the top spot in the Atlantic Division.
Aleksander Barkov and company will not be happy about that, and they have proven that they are the one team that can handle the Rangers this season. In fact, a win today will give them the season series sweep over New York. So, for as great as the Rangers have been, the fact that this game is at Madison Square Garden and still nearly a pick ‘em speaks volumes for how good Florida has been. You can bump this one down to the regular money line for a bit less of a payout, but we’re going with the Panthers in regulation for our NHL parlay picks.
