Best Bet For Friday (January 17th): NHL Predictions

Thanks to Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals, my four-game losing slump on my daily best bet picks is over. It took overtime, but Ovie came through for me on Thursday night. Let’s try to get some momentum going with another win tomorrow. For my best bet for Friday, January 17th: NHL Predictions, we’re staying on the ice, but relocating to the KeyBank Center in Buffalo.

 

 

 

Best Bet For Friday (January 17th): NHL Predictions

Pittsburgh Penguins vs Buffalo Sabres

Start Time – 7:00 PM EST

Neither the Pittsburgh Penguins nor the Buffalo Sabres are any good this season, ranking among the worst teams in the NHL based on advanced stats. This despite both teams being projected to be above average heading into the year (87.5 points for Buffalo, 90.5 for Pittsburgh).

Buffalo may have started to turn a corner, however,  as they’ve won three of their last four games (they’ve also won three of the past four contests held on their home ice in the KeyBank Center). That is not the case with Pittsburgh, who are in a colossal slump, dropping three straight and seven of their last eight games. They are also crummy on the road.

Long story short (too late), Buffalo at home is my pick tomorrow night. And we’re getting a pretty good moneyline number on them.

Best Bet: Buffalo ML (-130)

 

Best Bet Overall Record: 162-138 (54%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $734.18
Return on Investment: 2%
