NHL Picks Contest: Philadelphia Flyers at Florida Panthers

Saturday, March 12th

Well, I’ve got a two game lead so I took to the public to let you guys choose the game that I would beat you all with. After three submissions, I picked the game that was the furthest out to let everyone have a chance to put their picks in. The result is the Philadelphia Flyers at the Florida Panthers being what I hope will be the decisive selection.

The Florida Panthers have been slumping lately and are staggering down the stretch, while the Philadelphia Flyers find  ...

NHL Picks Contest: New York Rangers at Pittsburgh Penguins

Thursday, March 3rd The New York Rangers have been all over the place this season. Sometimes they look dominant, other times they look awful. They have a strong goaltender but the defense in front of him has been porous. What’s more, the offense seems out of sorts from time to time. It’s hard to get a read on this team, especially on the road, and that’s what makes it so fun to feature them in our NHL Picks contest for their game with the Pittsburgh Penguins on March 3rd.

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Philadelphia Flyers at Carolina Hurricanes

Tuesday, February 23rd In what I thought was a total toss up in Detroit ended up with quite a slanted contest pool, as most of you were on the Boston Bruins when they fell to the Detroit Red Wings in a thrilling 6-5 game. The home team, again, prevailed and the leaderboard shook up a little more. Here, in a battle of two desperate teams just outside the playoff race, I expect another exciting battle.

The Philadelphia Flyers are notoriously tough and a little dirty. They’re also known for being  ...

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Boston Bruins at Detroit Red Wings

Sunday, February 14th With the NFL season over following the Denver Broncos’ Super Bowl victory (that we nailed, by the way), NHL hockey takes over as my favorite thing to watch on Sundays. The Boston Bruins face the Detroit Red Wings in Detroit in a matinee matchup between two teams hoping to hold on to strong first halves and make the playoffs. The Red Wings have a long playoffs streak to cling to, but have seen their share of ups and downs this year. The Bruins, on the  ... 

NHL Picks Contest: Pittsburgh Penguins vs Tampa Bay Lightning

NHL Picks: Pittsburgh Penguins at Tampa Bay Lightning I don’t have any NHL system plays in my forum for today. Honestly, it’s Mardi Gras in New Orleans and the Super Bowl is on Sunday, so I would really need to be pushed to pick a team. As such, I do not have a bet for the Pittsburgh Penguins against the Tampa Bay Lightning in Tampa.

I will say this, though – both teams are on fire. It’s hard to bite on a game where two elite teams are surging. That said, the Pittsburgh Penguins are banged up and will take  ... 

Free NHL Picks Contest ($100): Pittsburgh Penguins at Tampa Bay Lightning

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Pittsburgh Penguins at Tampa Bay Lightning The Pittsburgh Penguins have been a tricky team. Sidney Crosby appears to be back to his old scoring ways, but the Penguins have struggled this year and could end up missing the playoffs. They still have no defense, and their top scorers might be showing their age as they can no longer carry this Pittsburgh Penguins team through its own mediocrity and one-dimensional approach.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are like a new, younger version of the Pittsburgh Penguins with a better goalie. As a result, they’ve had more sustained success.  ... 

Free NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Montreal Canadiens at Columbus Blue Jackets

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Montreal Canadiens at Columbus Blue Jackets

Monday, January 25th The Montreal Canadiens have fallen off the face of the earth without Carey Price. The best team in hockey seemed to have deep defense and sufficient scoring to make a run at another Stanley Cup, but the Habs have stumbled for a while now. Meanwhile, the Columbus Blue Jackets have recovered a bit from their horrific start. They look a little more competitive these days. Hosting the better team in a big slump, who will win this one? 

Only three people got it right last week so  ... 

Free NHL Picks Contest: New York Rangers at New York Islanders ($100)

NHL Picks Contest: New York Rangers at New York Islanders I wanted to bring your attention to our NHL Picks Contest game between the New York Rangers and New York Islanders featuring a $100 prize for the winner. As a fan of the East and a big fan of these epic rivalries between neighboring cities, I am hoping we can get a little more participation. I thought I’d feature the contest game a little bit early today since I don’t have any forum plays here and we’ll probably start focusing on the NFL playoffs tomorrow.

The New York Rangers have  ...

NHL Picks Contest: New York Rangers at New York Islanders

Thursday, January 14th The New York Rangers got off to an incredibly hot start this season, but certain metrics and bad possession time predicted their demise. For the most part, those predictions have come true and it’s been a rough month for the Rags. The New York Islanders have been pretty consistent this year and with their top goalie back they seem poised for another playoff berth. In this battle for New York hockey supremacy, who will win?
