Well, degens. Our two-night streak of bangers came to a halt on Friday evening. However, we did still nail two out of three, and the Insured option Underdog player took home 1x profit. The fire is still burning, and the freight train’s destination is still bangerville. Saturday in the NHL we can look forward to a jam packed 13 game slate. So, let’s get back into the lab and cook up a winner for the weekend. Here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for March 2.

The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for March 2
Robert Thomas Higher Than 0.5 Points
The St. Louis Blues may need to think about hitting the panic button if they want to make the playoffs. They come into Saturday’s game against the Wild, sitting seven points outside of the last Wild Card spot. Nevertheless, we’re dipping our buckets back into the well of centerman Robert Thomas.
He is now up to 20 goals and 48 assists this season and is currently on a two-game point streak. Thomas has also now logged 11 points across his last seven games.
The man is putting in a Herculean effort to will his team into the Stanley Cup Playoffs. So our first NHL Underdog entry on Saturday will be the monster Robert Thomas to go Higher Than 0.5 Points.
Cale Makar Higher Than 0.5 Points
The Colorado Avalanche will begin their weekend by heading to Nashville for a meeting with the Predators. With a strong enough push over the remaining portion of the season, the Avs could take the top spot in the West.
In order to do so, defenseman Cale Makar will be heavily relied upon. Saturday night, we’re looking for a singular point.
Something he tallied three of the last time he faced these Predators. Makar is also in fine form, having strung together a solid three-game point streak to finish his February. Let’s go ahead and mash Cale Makar Higher Than 0.5 Points in Nashville on Saturday night.
Nazem Kadri Higher Than 0.5 Points
Our third NHL Underdog entry on Saturday will be featuring in the nightcap on the ice. The Calgary Flames playoff hopes aren’t done and dusted just yet, but I’d probably get the dustpan ready.
That being said, the Flames won four straight to finish off February. Veteran centerman Nazem Kadri tallied six points across those four wins.
Saturday night he’ll welcome the Penguins to his home ice and I see his name on the box score. So let’s trust the veteran Nazem Kadri to go Higher Than 0.5 Points against the Penguins. All aboard the Quick Pick Train, next stop, bangerville!
