NHL Picks and Predictions: Toronto Maple Leafs at Pittsburgh Penguins

NHL Featured Hockey Game, Wednesday, January 23 – Toronto Maple Leafs at Pittsburgh Penguins

I don’t usually fall in love with -200 lines, but today is a beauty.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are the best team in hockey right now. They have three of the best forwards in the NHL in James Neal, Sidney Crosby, and Evgeni Malkin. They have a talented goalie in Marc-Andre Fleury. The Penguins are coached well, consistent, and perennial contenders. They’re hot to start the year and there’s a little bit of value even in this ugly line.

The Leafs goaltending has been in shambles since James  ... 

NHL Featured Game – New York Rangers & Boston Bruins

FEATURED NHL GAME – OPENING NIGHT – NEW YORK RANGERS AT BOSTON BRUINS ORIGINAL SIX RIVALRY GAME!

The New York Rangers might be the best team in the Eastern Conference. They return the top-seeded roster from last year, added Rick Nash to the offense, and should be fresh after a long offseason free from blocking shots and the grinding year that led to an Eastern Conference Finals loss to the New Jersey Devils. Hopes are high and energy is just as high. I love the Rangers this year.

The Boston Bruins are going in a new direction after Tim Thomas  ... 

NHL Preseason Picks and Predictions: Hockey’s Playoff Teams 2013

The NHL season is finally upon us, which means we get to finally outline predictions for the upcoming hockey season.  We’ll do each conference, and predict which teams will make the playoffs.  Last year, Z-Code was one of the only professional prediction services to have the Devils making the Stanley Cup Final.  Let’s see if we can do it again this year:

Western Conference:

1. Vancouver Canucks:  How do you bet against these guys?  They return a stud goaltender and some of the best scorers in hockey.  They have a two-way team that can dominate a game.  The Canucks will be great again.

2. St. Louis Blues:  The Blues have the best goaltending tandem in hockey.  This team is built for another playoff run.

3. LA Kings:  In the worst division in hockey, the Kings should be able to win the division this year.  They made a Stanley Cup run last year as an 8th seed, but they won’t sneak  ... 

NHL Pick of the day for January 19 by Ron.

Hot in the Desert!

Recap: Awesome win by the Ducks to put us over .500, “Quack, Quack, Quack.” The NHL thought Chicago was the blowout of the night until Anaheim came along. Anaheim gets the night off tonight, but maybe we can use our newly found knowledge for their next game. No time to worry about that tonight as we’re coming off two straight wins. You know what that means…going for the Turkey!

Tonight we give the NHL network game a well deserved night off. One of the toughest nights to choose a game of the night, with plenty of  ...

NHL Predictions by ZCodeSystem 30 December 2011

Today I am interested to see Capitals finally destroy the Sabres, Florida reply for the humiliation in a tight 2-1 game over Rangers, Ottawa to win 3-4OT over the tired Flames, Detroit to show a win of pride 4-3OT over the Hawks and the Preds to upset the Blues in a tight 3-2 Win.

Lets see how it goes and good luck to all! All games are of low confidence (below 4 stars) so it is more like a fun day for us.

Like many old school cappers are saying – betting around holidays can mess up all the results,  ...
