NHL Picks, Predictions: Detroit Red Wings at LA Kings

NHL Featured Game – Hockey Picks: Detroit Red Wings at LA Kings

For me, this game comes down to the tremendous goaltending edge the Red Wings have against Jonathan Bernier. Jimmy Howard can be one of the best in hockey, and the backup goaltender for the Kings faces a deep and talented top six for the Detroit Red Wings. He will need to play his best game to keep pace with Howard.

THe Kings offense isn’t all that overpowering, and I think the Red Wings can shut them down. I don’t, however, see the Kings completely shutting down a suddenly-hot ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: Chicago Blackhawks Vs Columbus Blue Jackets

NHL Featured Game – Hockey Picks: Chicago Blackhawks Vs Columbus Blue Jackets

Maybe it’s a little obvious, but that’s what lazy Sunday afternoons are for. Low risk, high money plays while sipping a beer and hanging out with friends and family while watching hockey.

The Chicago Blackhawks are on a historic streak and, barring a letdown, they’ll dominate this game. They’re the better team, they’re home, they’re on a point streak of epic proportions, and they’re playing very well. On home ice, why stay away? This fits all parameters of my system except the “value” side of things I love ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: St. Louis Blues Vs Colorado Avalanche

NHL Featured hockey Game – St. Louis Blues at Colorado Avalanche

Another win for the Facebook feature, but I’m tired of all the conflicting signals. This time, I’m going with a pick that Z-Code and I agree on.

Jaroslav Halak is finally back (we hope, last time he was back he got hurt again), which gives the Blues the stability in net they’ve built their team on. The offense has woken up during this little spell of horrible play, and if they can continue that stretch of offense now that they have a goalie in net again, they should be ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: LA Kings at Edmonton Oilers

NHL Featured Game – LA Kings at Edmonton Oilers

I’m going to do a rare treat for you guys today because I’m a little late with the post. Not only will I give you my analysis, the computer output for this game, and the typical prediction, I’m going to give Stanley’s expert pick as well. Stanley has been on fire in the VIP club, and when our picks align we are unstoppable. Unfortunately, this is not the case with this game.

Z-Code is confused. It’s a two-star game winner pick, with 3 star underdog value. It’s a 57% victory ML prediction ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: Anaheim Ducks Vs Columbus Blue Jackets

NHL Featured Hockey Game – Columbus Blue Jackets Vs Anaheim Ducks

I owe all of you an apology. I believe yesterday was the first time since I started publishing all my picks three years ago that I led you guys to make a bet that I didnt’ bet. Because my forum hit on every play (all high confidence and one medium confidence) I hedged out of the Canucks game. Line movement allowed me to take a .2 unit loss on a 5 unit original bet. I posted that we were hedging, but I don’t expect most of you to have ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: Philadelphia Flyers at Montreal Canadiens

Another day, another win for the featured game. We’re rolling now!

NHL Featured Game – Philadelphia Flyers at Montreal Canadiens

I know the Flyers are on a back to back, and likely very tired, but the Habs lack the weapons to go toe-to-toe with the Flyers when they’re clicking. I expect this offense to erupt.

The Habs are great at home, but value is on the Flyers. Check out our screenshot for my VIP Club analysis and the Z-Code output for this game.

“The Flyers are on a back to back, but didn’t it feel like they were turning a ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: Penguins at Jets

NHL Picks and Predictions – Pittsburgh Penguins at Winnipeg Jets

Don’t expect the same immaculate prediction as yesterday, where we nailed everything from the flow of the game to the final score. Still, we’ll try our best! It’s been an incredible start to the hockey season for the VIP Club, and expert forums are in profit and humming along. In today’s feature game, we pick a road favorite that could be a trap line, but the value is too much to pass on.

Early line reversal money movements show a reversal against the Penguins. As expected, the trap is being ...

NHL Picks and Predictions: Washington Capitals at Tampa Bay Lightning

NHL Picks and Predictions – Washington Capitals at Tampa Bay Lightning.

Ah, the dreaded conflicting parameters signal, which we’ve learned means that it’s best to stay away from!

The Z-Code algorithm gives 4 1/2 stars of value in the Washington Capitals line, but also predicts in another parameter that the Tampa Bay Lightning are 2:1 favorites to win tonight. When the computer picks up different trends and analyzes two different outcomes, it’s best to run away… usually.

I, as always, betting every game like I do, will have some fun with this one.

The Washington Capitals have turned things around ...

NHL Picks and Predictions, New York Rangers at Boston Bruins ($100 Contest Pick)

NHL Featured Game – New York Rangers at Boston Bruins – Featured $100 Contest Pick, Vote in the poll below!!

In round two of our $100 contest, we’ve selected a tough game between two Original Six rivals.

The New YOrk Rangers were extremely mediocre to open the season, but they’ve turned things around of late. The new chemistry on the top two lines is exciting, Lundqvist is playing like himself again, and the defense we’ve all come to know as the focal point of the Rangers system is playing well again. They’re back, perhaps finally over the crushing loss my Devils ...
