NHL Betting – Sharks, Flyers will dominate at home
December 11, 2008
Ducks vs Sharks
The Ducks have played better of late, winning six of 10. They also trounced San Jose 4-0 in their last meeting. But that shouldn’t stop you from picking the Sharks to beat them in San Jose if you bet online. Fans of NHL betting should remember that San Jose is unbeaten in regulation at home (14-0-2). Don’t expect that to change. With its deep group of forwards, San Jose should beat the Ducks vs Sharks odds on Thursday.
Online betting pick: Sharks
What’s old is new again in Carolina, as Paul Maurice is back behind the bench making the ’Canes look somewhat competitive. That shouldn’t influence NHL betting fans when examining the Hurricanes vs Flyers odds, though. Philly is piping hot, with just one regulation loss in its last 10 games. Rising star Jeff Carter and the Flyers should fill the net at home against a defensively weak Carolina team. NHL lines favor the Flyers more often than not for a reason: their offence is rolling and their schedule has been easy as pie of late. Pick them.
Online betting pick: Flyers
The Minnesota Wild aren’t talked about much in online sports betting circles these days, having lost two straight games and six of 10. A smart NHL betting fan, however, should capitalize on the Wild vs Coyotes odds on Thursday. Not only does Minnesota sport a solid 7-4-1 road record, it also plays stingy defense and should have no trouble bottling up a Phoenix attack that ranks last in the Western Conference. Bet online on Minnesota.
Online betting pick: Wild
