Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.
Tampa Bay Lightning -1.5 over the Vegas Golden Knights (+155)
This appears to be one of the best matchups of the night, but after taking a deeper look, the Lightning should run away with this one. Both of these teams are trending in opposite directions as of late. The Bolts are on a three-game win streak and have won eight of their last 10 games, meanwhile, Vegas has lost two in a row and has won just three games in their last 10.
The Golden Knights have started to falter and their goaltending has started to plummet. Starting goaltender, Robin Lehner is only posting a 2.82 GAA and .908 SVP. That’s simply not going to get it done against the Lightning’s fiery offense. Additionally, Andrei Vasilevskiy has been playing some of his best hockey of the season, only losing two of his last nine starts. At +155, Tampa provides excellent value for how well they’ve been playing, and tonight they have home-ice advantage, where they have thrived. Tampa is the better team, and they’ve been playing like it. Don’t overthink this one, take them on the puck line tonight.

Carolina Hurricanes -1.5 over the New Jersey Devils (-115)
The Carolina Hurricanes have continued to be one of, if not the best team in the entire league. They’re on a two-game win streak and have won seven of their last 10 games. They’ve been dominant on home ice this season with 14 wins in 19 games, and they should make easy work of their opponent tonight.
The Devils are on a three-game losing streak and have struggled over the last stretch, only generating three wins in their last 10 games. Even worse for the Devils, both their starting goaltender and backup goaltender are out with an injury right now, forcing a third-string goalie to start against the Canes tonight. Jon Gillies has gone 1-4-1 for the Devils this season, and has a very tough night ahead of him against Carolina. Even more good news for bettors, Dougie Hamilton, the Devils best defenseman, is out with a jaw injury. With both goalies and their number one defender out of tonight’s game, expect the Hurricanes to easily cover the spread. Take them on the puck line tonight.

Toronto Maples Leafs -1.5 over the Detroit Red Wings
The Red Wings are playing in the tail end of a back-to-back, and they played their game last night in Pittsburgh. Their game went to overtime last night as well, so now they’ve played extra minutes and have had less rest, this is a combination the Leafs should definitely take advantage of. The Leafs have been one of the better teams this season at getting a lead. In six of their last seven games, they found themselves with a 3-1 lead or better. In their last 10 games, they’ve gone 7-2-1. If they can do a better job at maintaining their leads, this game should be a wrap.
Petr Mrazek is confirmed to be the start for Toronto, he’s come off a big win against the Islanders in which he only had allowed one goal against. If he can have another solid game in the net, the Leafs should easily cover the spread again with Mrazek in the net. Take the Leafs on the puck line here.
