Hitting an underdog NHL pick a couple of nights ago has given me some more breathing room in my daily best bet bankroll. But I’m still trying to string together a heater (aren’t we all). For my best bet for Wednesday, February 5th: NHL Predictions, we’re headed to The World’s Most Famous Arena, Madison Square Garden, where the resident hockey team will be in action. Let’s go!
Best Bet For Wednesday (February 5th): NHL Predictions
Boston Bruins vs New York Rangers
Start Time: 7:00 PM EST
We’ve only got three games on the NHL slate on Wednesday, and the Boston Bruins vs the New York Rangers is the only one with a playable line, so that’s where my money is headed. And it’s going on the home team Rangers.
This appears to finally be the season where the Bruins take a step back from being an elite team. They are only on pace for 88 points, which would be their lowest full-season total since 2006/07. And they are a crummy road team, with their 9-14-3 away record among the worst in the NHL.
This is the rubber match between the two teams this season, and I expect the Rangers to win the season series tomorrow night. Based on the numbers, they should be at least half a goal favorite Wednesday night at home.
Best Bet: New York ML (-166)
Best Bet Overall Record: 169-149 (53%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $245.25
Return on Investment: 1%
