Stanley Cup Playoffs, I love you, but you’re killing me. Being on the wrong side of the winning team day in and day out for the past week has killed my bankroll. Let’s try to get it back on track tomorrow. For my best bet for Sunday (May 24th): NHL Playoffs Predictions, we’re off to the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Let’s get this money!
Best Bet For Sunday (May 24th): NHL Playoffs Predictions
Colorado Avalanche vs Vegas Golden Knights
Start Time: 8:00 PM EST
Which brings us to the biggest culprit in the syphoning of my bankroll, the Colorado Avalanche. The supposed best team in the league and the heavy favorite to win the Western Conference Championship went out and got beaten in back-to-back games on their home ice by the Vegas Golden Knights.
So is this going to be one of those series where home ice doesn’t matter? I’m hoping so, because I’m (gulp) in on the Avs again tomorrow as Game 3 moves to the desert. Not only was Colorado the best team in the regular season, but they were heads and shoulders the best road team, posting a 29-7-5 record away from Denver. And they’re 3-1 on the road these playoffs, outscoring the home side 15-10.
I’ll take Colorado on the moneyline as my best bet tomorrow, for perhaps the final time this season (fool me once, fool me twice, fool me three times?!).
Best Bet: Colorado ML (-132)
Best Bet Overall 2026 Record: 79-63 (56%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($268.23)
Return on Investment: -2%
