We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Thursday, including picks from the NBA, NFL, NHL and college football. One pick is taken from each sport and a winning ticket would give us a very nice payout with odds of +1500 at DraftKings Sportsbook.

NHL pick today: Washington Capitals 3-way ML over Ottawa Senators (+130), 7:07 pm ET

The Capitals have been playing absolute stellar hockey, winning 7 of their past 8 games, with the loss being a 2-1 battle with a very good Dallas Stars team. The streak has also included wins against some top NHL teams, so it has been well-earned.

They should have no issues continuing that dominance against a Senators team who are last in their division and on a 2-game losing skid. Washington knows it must win games against weaker teams, as it plays in an extremely tough Metropolitan Division within an even tougher Eastern Conference overall. There have been minimal weaknesses in this group for the past few weeks, and a young team like the Senators shouldn’t be causing any problems for them. For that reason, backing the Capitals in regulation will be the play.

College Football: Air Force Falcons +3.5 over Baylor Bears (-110), 7:30 pm ET

Neither team has very many holdouts or draft prospects, so this game should be one of the few bowl games that looks close to a regular-season game. Baylor has a high-powered passing offense and averages 33.6 points and 235 passing yards per game. However, the Bears are playing an Air Force defense that allows only 13.3 points and 256 yards per game. These Air Force guys are playing in possibly their last football game and will likely come ready to go against a tough Baylor team. For that reason, backing the Falcons with the points will be the play.

NBA pick today: New Orleans Pelicans -8.5 vs San Antonio Spurs (-110), 8:10 pm ET

The New Orleans Pelicans find themselves on a surprising 4-game losing streak, but they should have a great chance to put an end to it tonight. They will be hosting a San Antonio Spurs team that they beat by 18 points on the road earlier this month.

On the season the Spurs have the worst net offensive and defensive rating differential in the league. Without the services of Keldon Johnson, the offense could really have issues against a Pelicans squad that ranks 6th in the league in defensive rating. Because of the difference in depth that will be present tonight, backing the Pelicans will be the play.

NFL: Jacksonville Jaguars +2.5 over New York Jets (-110), 8:15 pm ET

Week 16 of the 2022 NFL season kicks off with Thursday Night Football between the Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Jets. Thanks to their current hot streak and the Tennessee Titans’ swoon, the Jaguars are suddenly in the thick of the AFC South title race. They are just 1 game back after getting a huge — and unexpected — boost by upsetting the Dallas Cowboys 40-34 in overtime in Week 15. Trevor Lawrence and company have won 3 of 4 since the bye week and 4 of 6 since beginning the season 2-6.

The Jaguars are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 overall and 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 against the AFC. New York is 0-4 ATS in its last 4 games on Thursdays. For that reason, backing the Jaguars to cover will be the play.
