Friends, Readers, Tailers, and Degens, who among you is having a great week? Well, The Quick Pick certainly is after Thursday night’s second three-for-three banger in a row! For my Standard NHL Underdog players, you’re now up over 7.5x this week alone. And for my Insured NHL Underdog players, you’re rolling in nearly 3.8x profits this week. What better way to shift gears into weekend mode than by knocking in a third banger in a row? Friday night offers up a three-game NHL slate, and we’re burning hotter than the fires of Mordor. So stay on the freight train to bangerville, because we aren’t stopping! Here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for March 1.
The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for March 1
Max Pacioretty Higher Than 0.5 Points (1.1x Odds)
The Washington Capitals have been far from good for a large part of this season. But, with a light Friday slate, we’re focusing on one Capitals player who’s beginning to round into form. Veteran winger Max Pacioretty comes into Friday’s game against the Flyers with a solid three-game point streak. He’s now also scored goals in two straight, and the Capitals really are in must-win games from here on out. So, with a spicy price tag, let’s take Max Pacioretty Higher Than 0.5 Points against the Flyers on Friday.
Matias Maccelli Higher Than 0.5 Points
The Arizona Coyotes were a pesky little hockey team for a little while this season. Unfortunately, they skated into Friday’s game in Ottawa, having lost every single game they played in February. Some might say The Quick Pick’s crazy for considering a Yotes player here, but we’re hot and holding the aces. If this is the first time you’ve ever heard Matias Maccelli’s name, you wouldn’t be the only one. But this 23-year-old Finnish winger has strung together a 40-point season. He also is riding a four-game point streak into Friday’s game. The Coyotes February record be damned, we’re taking Matias Maccelli Higher Than 0.5 Points tonight against the Senators.
Alex Killorn Higher Than 0.5 Points
In a completely unintentional way, Friday night’s NHL Underdog picks are all currently skating on teams headed nowhere near the postseason. The Anaheim Ducks are bottom-feeders again this season, but winger Alex Killorn provides a necessary veteran presence. He is coming off a two-point night and now has four points in his last six games. The Devils are no stranger to conceding goals, so let’s entrust the Duck’s gritty vet to snag us a point. We’re punching Alex Killorn Higher Than 0.5 Points and going to cash a third straight banger!
