Free NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Pittsburgh Penguins at Washington Capitals

NHL Picks Contest: Pittsburgh Penguins at Washington Capitals

Wednesday, February 25th

There was a time where the NHL would have had you believe that Washington Capitals Vs Pittsburgh Penguins was the premier rivalry in hockey. Alex Ovechkin Vs Sidney Crosby, the concussions, the hatred, and two of the elite teams in the east… but the Washington Capitals never really lived up to expectations and haven’t delivered any playoff success during the Ovechkin era, and really, Crosby’s Penguins have disappointed since his injury-plagued seasons too. Right now, the Caps are playing great hockey and surging, one point ahead of a slumping Penguins team that is starting to get healthy again.

When these teams meet on Wednesday, who ya got? It’s still a wide open competition, with just three successful predictions last week. Remember, first to ten wins $100. It’s free to participate and easy. Simply comment on this post pinned to the top of our Facebook page to participate!

NHL Picks: Minnesota Wild at Edmonton Oilers

NHL Picks: Minnesota Wild at Edmonton Oilers

The Edmonton Oilers are playing good hockey by their standards. Realistically, even with the Boston Bruins hurting the way they are right now, that was still an impressive win. That said, the Minnesota Wild are playing much better hockey than Boston right now, and I don’t see them letting this one slip away.

Quite simply, if you got in early enough, there’s value here. -160 was my opening line, and even early this morning we had -170. The movement continues to rise, which is a sign of Vegas fearing public money. I like  ... 

NBA Picks: San Antonio Spurs at LA Clippers (+3)

NBA Picks: San Antonio Spurs at LA Clippers (+3) The computer gives a strong underdog value signal here, and with only two games on tap tonight I agree with the Z-Code algorithm. The Los Angeles Clippers are a strong team, starting to turn a corner after a little bit of a slide. The San Antonio Spurs, despite the dynasty being in tact, have been a little slow this year. I think the speed of the Clippers, at home, as underdogs, has some value here for sure.

There is no question this is a battle of elite teams and either is  ...

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): Standings Update, Flyers Blue Jackets

Only three of our contestants got our contest game right, so the standings look pretty similar.

First to ten wins takes the whole thing, but we’ve seen leaders stumble and the door is wide open.  Simply follow along on our Facebook page to participate.

NHL Picks Contest: Columbus Blue Jackets vs Philadelphia Flyers

NHL Picks Contest: Columbus Blue Jackets at Philadelphia Flyers

Tuesday, February 17th

What happened to the Columbus Blue Jackets? Last time I looked up they had their goalie of the future, a great core of young skaters, and all the momentum in the world after last season. And for that matter – what happened to the Philadelphia Flyers? Mason was serviceable last season and the top-line scoring they built the roster around has evaporated a little. That said, Philly is hot right now and difficult to beat at home. Still, they’ve been pretty streaky this season and the momentum they have today might be gone by next week… either way – who ya got?

As always, to participate, simply comment on this post pinned to the top of our Facebook page. First to ten wins, and after a small hiatus (SORRY), it’s still anyone’s game!

NHL All-Star Break: Free NHL Picks Contest Standings Update ($100 Prize)We had a -180 ML in our last game between the Vancouver Canucks and Tampa Bay Lightning, but somehow still had a pretty even split. The heavy favorite was dominant, as the line suggested, and those who took the “easy money” were fortunate enough to win. Here’s where our standings are coming into the NHL All Star Break. Halfway through the NHL season, we’re halfway through our free NHL Picks contest with a free $100 prize to the first person to reach ten wins.

NHL Picks: Winnipeg Jets at Anaheim Ducks

NHL Picks: Winnipeg Jets at Anaheim Ducks The line is a little sharp here, but it seems worthwhile. The Anaheim Ducks are one of the top teams in the west, while the Winnipeg Jets are wildly inconsistent. Throw in some fatigue from a team like the Jets that lacks some depth and I think the explosive offense of the Ducks will shine through here – especially against a weak goalie.

The Jets are tired and coming off a big win, but are traveling all the way to southern California and should be suffering some fatigue. They’re also the inferior team here  ... 

NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize): New York Rangers at Vancouver Canucks

NHL Picks Contest Round Two ($100 Prize): Rangers at Canucks

Saturday, December 13th

I liked this little rivalry after the coach swap, but now that John Tortorella is finally out of the NHL, this is just fun on its own. The New York Rangers have battled injuries and lost a little bit of depth this year, but the Canucks didn’t appear to be much deeper to begin the season. Adding veteran goaltender Ryan Miler seems to have made all the difference in Vancouver. That, and finally getting rid of Torts.

So, in our second round of a first-to-ten competition, who ya got? The Rangers are across the country, but I think they’re the better team. It’s also the front half of a back to back, but the back end is the Edmonton Oilers so I doubt that will have much of an impact here. This should be a nice defensive battle.

– Z-Code Public Money Tools Explained

I have my hesitations about this game to begin with and probably won’t be placing a wager. We’ll be monitoring it closely when we get closer to game time, but I wanted to take this opportunity to explain our public money tools in the VIP Club as well as my thoughts coming into this one. I’ll start with game analysis for the Dallas Cowboys at Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football and move onto why it’s backed up by the computer.
