Let’s break down each of the legs:
Montreal Canadiens ML (+310) over Florida Panthers
The Montreal Canadiens continue their 4-game road trip on Tuesday when they play the Florida Panthers. These two teams just played each other last Thursday, where the Florida Panthers came away with the win, but only by a single goal. Even though the Canadiens have been officially eliminated from playoff contention, you wouldn’t know it by their recent play. They have points in 5 of their last 6 games, which included going 1-1-1 against the Maple Leafs, Panthers, and Bruins – 3 of the Eastern Conference’s top teams.
The Panthers have looked mortal as of late, going 3-2-0 in their last 5 games, with losses to the Maple Leafs and Golden Knights, and barely beating the Senators and Canadiens in that stretch. With both teams coming in with some fatigue and playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, lean towards the team with tons of value. Take the Canadiens on the money line.

Philadelphia Flyers ML (+220) over Minnesota Wild
The Philadelphia Flyers wrap up a 5-game road trip as they play the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday night. The Flyers will have played the top 4 teams in the Central Division on this road trip after their game with the Wild, and are 1-2-0 going into Tuesday’s game. They played the Central tough, beating the Blues, coming within 2 goals of the Avalanche late in the 3rd period and losing to the Predators with just over a minute left in regulation.
The Wild have had some fortunate bounces in their past 3 games, winning all 3 games in overtime by the exact same score – 3-2. They will also be coming into the game with some fatigue, as this will be their 3rd game in 4 days. That should help the Flyers slow down Minnesota’s top line, which has done the majority of the Wild’s scoring. Look to take the value of a more rested Flyers team and place your wager on the Flyers money line.
