Has anybody checked The Quick Pick’s temperature lately? Well, it might break the thermometer because we are absolutely burning up! It’s almost like we are Biff Tannen in Back To The Future. We stole the Doc’s DeLorean and went back in time with our Sports Almanac to make a fortune. After yet another three-for-three banger on Monday night, our season-successful pick rate has surged upward to 72%. There are 10 games on the slate for Tuesday night, but we’re focusing on the same familiar faces. Because a trend is a trend, and when you’re rolling hot dice, you do the same damn thing every roll! So here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for December 12.
The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for December 12
Morgan Rielly Higher Than 0.5 Points
As long as this Leafs defenseman keeps producing, he’ll be under consideration as an NHL Underdog entry. Rielly got us the necessary point last night with seven seconds remaining and extended his point streak to three games. Tuesday night, the Leafs travel across Long Island and into the city for a meeting with the Rangers at MSG. Rielly has tallied three points across five games in the last two seasons against the Rangers. The defenseman’s splits also lean towards a tendency of inflicting the most damage during night games on the road. Let’s trust Morgan Rielly to kick off Tuesday night’s banger and take Higher Than 0.5 Points against the Rangers.
Evan Bouchard Higher Than 0.5 Assists
No, The Quick Pick article isn’t just a deleted scene from the movie Groundhog Day. But yes, we are seeing a lot of the same things happening over and over each night. Our second NHL Underdog entry on Tuesday night is Oilers defenseman Evan Bouchard. The young man from Oakville, ON, sports a stunning 11-game point streak heading into Tuesday’s meeting against the Blackhawks. During that same streak, Bouchard has tallied 11 assists to go along with five goals. Simply put, right now Evan Bouchard could melt steel with the blade of his hockey stick. Grab a sack because we’re headed to the Evan Bouchard orchard to pick an apple. Let’s mash the Higher Than 0.5 Assists for Evan Bouchard against the Chicago Blackhawks.
Mikael Granlund Higher Than 0.5 Points
If not for a shootout loss two nights ago, we’d be staring at a Sharks three-game winning streak. Loyal readers are well aware of our third NHL Underdog entry because he’s brought us home seemingly every night. Granlund has now put together a ridiculous five-game point streak, with four of those five games being multi-point efforts. Tuesday night, the Sharks will need a fifth multi-point effort from Granlund if they’re going to take two from Winnipeg. If it keeps on raining, eventually, the Granlund levy will break. But with his recent form and the Sharks recent form combined, he’s going to find a way here. Let’s go once more into the fray and take Mikael Granlund Higher Than 0.5 Points for another banger!
