Alex Ovechkin is now 21 goals behind Wayne Gretzky’s NHL record for career goals, and most importantly, Ovie’s goal on Thursday night helped me cash a +278 parlay. Cha-ching. I’m going to try my luck out on the ice once again tomorrow. For my SGPN Parlay for Friday (January 17th): NHL Parlay, we’re headed north (or southeast for me) to Buffalo’s KeyBank Center for a matchup between a couple of underachieving teams.
SGPN Parlay for Friday (January 17th): NHL Parlay
Pittsburgh Penguins vs Buffalo Sabres
Start Time – 7:00 PM EST
Both the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Buffalo Sabres are well off the predicted paces set for them heading into this season, as they are both under .500 as we cross the mid-season threshold. However, the Sabres are showing some life, winning three of their last four games. And they’re at home tomorrow night, where they’ve also won three of the past four.
The Sabres on the moneyline to beat the slumping Penguins is the first half of my winning parlay.
For the second half of my play, I like under 6.5 goals to be scored in Friday’s game. Both teams average right around this total for their games this season, however, the scoring has dried up for both Buffalo and Pittsburgh lately, as combined they’re only seeing a little over five goals hit the back of the net.
Best Bet: Buffalo ML + Penguins/Sabres Under 6.5 Goals (+238)
Overall Record: 56-120 (32%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($398.00)
Return on Investment: -2%
