Another week begins tomorrow, which means more winning NHL plays, because that’s how we roll in these parts (although I have hit a little slump). For my best bet for Monday, March 16th: NHL Predictions, we’re off to a familiar spot – the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas. Let’s get this money!
Best Bet For Monday (March 16th): NHL Predictions
Utah Mammoth vs Dallas Stars
Start Time: 8:00 PM EST
There’s a good reason the American Airlines Center is a familiar spot recently for my best bets – we keep getting juicy moneylines on its occupant, the Dallas Stars. Perhaps it’s the absence of Mikko Rantanen that’s causing it, but I’ll take it, regardless.
That’s because, against all logic, the Stars are excelling without Rantanen this season, posting a 10-1-1 record in the winger’s absence. Dallas has come out of the Winter Olympic break (when Rantanen got injured playing for Finland) as hot as they entered it, currently riding a four-game winning streak, and a 14-1 mark over their last 15 games, going back to January 23rd.
Plus, the Stars are 22-7-4 on their home ice, the third-strongest mark in the NHL. Playing a weak road team like the Utah Mammoth, which has a worse offense and defense, and which has dropped four straight games, all makes me love the number we’re getting on the Dallas moneyline even more.
Best Bet: Dallas ML (-154)
Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 49-24 (67%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): $1,367.69
Return on Investment: 19%
