Well, Degens. For those who tailed The Quick Pick last night and played the Insured option, congratulations on your 0.93x profit scoop! Thursday night went a “close but no cigar” kind of two out of three. But for those keeping score at home, The Quick Pick has now given out eight winners in our last twelve.
More importantly, the tailers are up roughly 3-3.5x profit this week alone. While the majority of the sporting world is all in on March Madness, we have a banger to build tonight! The NHL offers up a four-game slate on Friday night, and we’ve got the itch for your scratch. So, here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for March 22.

The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for March 22
Sebastian Aho Higher Than 0.5 Assists (1.1x Odds)
Stop me if you’ve read this Carolina Hurricane’s name on The Quick Pick before. That’s right, baby! We are taking our pal back to the well and filling it with a Sebastian Aho assist again tonight. To say that Aho has been on fire recently would probably be an understatement.
Coming into tonight’s game against the Caps, the winger has a four-game point streak going. More importantly, he has an assist in each of his last four games. So, if Underdog wants to keep sprinkling cayenne pepper on this offering, that’s fine by me! Let’s go ahead and mash the Higher Than 0.5 Assists for Sebastian Aho against the Capitals tonight.
Jamie Benn Higher Than 0.5 Points
Ah yes, another familiar name from a familiar team here on the pages of The Quick Pick. It’s probably because the Dallas Stars are cooking with gas here in March.
They have won six of their eight games this month and skate on home ice against the pitiful Penguins tonight. Veteran winger Jamie Benn has been a brute force lately and is working on his own four-game point streak.
He is also up to 11 points in their eight games in March. So, let’s see. Veteran player on a heater, check. Lesser competition tonight, check. It’s settled. We’re taking Jamie Benn to go Higher Than 0.5 Points against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Cale Makar Higher Than 0.5 Points
If the NHL were the NCAA Tournament, the Colorado Avalanche would be a 2 seed in the West bracket. They’ve played well in a gauntlet of a conference all season long. On Friday night, they will skate on home ice against the lowly Blue Jackets. Defenseman Cale Makar has 75 points this season and is on a four-game point streak.
Hint: If you’re reading closely, you’ll notice that all three Underdog entries tonight have something in common. But, this isn’t a “who done it” column, we’re here to hit a banger! And tonight, Cale Makar makes it a fifth straight game with a point. So, let’s press Higher Than 0.5 Points on Cale Makar and go collect our cash!
