My first NHL season got started off on the ideal notice as my first pick was a winner at +140 odds that were large as the Edmonton Oilers stayed perfect.
I mentioned in the write-up of yesterday which James Neal was likely to be an x-factor with the jolt and this team the club needed to match the boys. I think in scoring four goals in the 5-2 win, James proved my point quite well. YesNeal scored his fourth, third, fifth and sixth goals of the young year in the success, documenting the all-natural hat trick in the process.
The shots have been dead-even in 27 apiece, but the Oilers capitalized after scoring a pair of power play mark from the Kings with just two power play goals. Yes, Neal has all four of those power play goals over the last two games.
Standing tall was Mikko Koskinen since the netminder turned aside 25 shots and submitted a .960 Sv% at even strength. Koskinen made his first win of the year.
Ill be posting my listing and components won within the span of this season so you can follow along and judge for yourself if you would like to stay with my plays or roll the dice by yourself.
Lets turn our attention to the three-game NHL program of tonight and see if we can make it 2 in a row at a Pacific Division matchup between Vancouver Canucks and the Los Angeles Kings out of Rogers Arena in Vancouver.
The Kings pulled off the upset of the Calgary Flames in overtime by a closing of 4-3 last night at the first leg of games. Together with the four strikes, a terrible Kings offense from a season ago has unexpectedly scored nine goals within the first two matches. But theypermitted nine themselves and also have been out-scored 9-8 in regulation up to now.
It is going to be the switch between the pipes for this particular one of Jonathan Quick Once Jack Campbell captured the success last night. Quick was the netminder torched to the Oilers on Saturday, permitting those six tallies on 31 shots, good to get a .806 Sv%. The tough start to this season is a continuation of a rough 2018-19 campaign in which Quick submitted a 3.38 GAA and .888 Svpercent across 46 outings, great for its worst numbers of his career with a landslide.
After dropping contests into the campaign to open, on Canucks side, theyll be looking. Offense has been an problem for the Canucks after being shutout by David Rittich along with the Flames on Saturday as they have scored just two goals in two matches.
On the flip side, the Canucks have been winning the ownership game with a 54.4percent Corsi Forpercent at strength on the season. Furthermore, they outshot the Oilers and outshot the Flames 34-29 while shedding. It stands to reason the Canucks have performed well at even power this year with both games coming in the road.
On the flip side, the Kings rank 24th using a 46.7percent Corsi Forpercent in even strength in the young season.
Going 0 to 10 on the power play two games will not aid, however, Vancouver is also a perfect 6 for 6 on the penalty kill. Your very best penalty killer is your goaltender and also for Vancouver which is Jacob Markstrom with this particular one. Markstrom owns a pleasant 2.57 GAA and a .902 Sv% through two games this year, but has been remarkably steady in posting a save percentage involving .910 and .915 in his past four seasons. Not good numbers, but reliable and consistent, nevertheless.
In the days conclusion, weve got a Kings team playing their next match in as many nights tonight. Back-to-backs are always tough facing what should be a raucous crowd and theyll require to a Canucks team skating inside their home opener tonight.
Moreover, theyre beginning a netminder in Quick that has fought for some time. Playing behind what is a Kings blueline when compared with year old is not helping, but Quick isnt the netminder he was once the Kings yearly competed for the Stanley Cup.
I like the home side to win that 1 tonight, but I am not paying -170 to do so. Ill be taking a look at the 3-Way-Moneyline in Bovada and choose the Canucks to win this one in regulation, or full-time as its called on the site. With this drama, were getting the Canucks to win at chances in regulation.
Having a Kings team enjoying their second game in 24 hours from a Canucks team sprung up to skate inside their home , I see tons of value in these chances and that is exactly what Ill roster tonight with my next pick of the NHL season.
