Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Arizona Coyotes
Thursday, December 29, 2022 – 09:00 PM EST at Mullett Arena
Auston Matthews (Toronto Maple Leafs)
- Anytime Goalscorer
Although Matthews isn’t the Maple Leafs' top goalscorer this season he is only four goals behind top-ranked William Nylander and has finished the previous two seasons as the NHL’s top regular season goalscorer.
Tonight the Maple Leafs and Matthews face an Arizona team who have allowed 3.58 goals per game (the seventh worst in the NHL) but have played less than games three teams above them so technically they could be ranked the fourth worst.
Matthews grew up in the state of Arizona and would relish an opportunity to score against his home state. Matthews has failed to score in his previous two games but before that, he had scored in 8 of his previous 10 outings. Let’s hope he can get back on the scoreboard against the Coyotes here today.

Detroit Red Wings vs. Buffalo Sabres
Thursday, December 29, 2022 – 07:00 PM EST at KeyBank Center
Tage Thompson (Buffalo Sabres)
- Anytime Goalscorer
Big Centre (6 ft 7) Tage Thompson has scored 26 goals in 32 games played thus far this season, which is tied for the second most in the entire league. His team, the Buffalo Sabres, is averaging 3.94 goals per game (the most in the NHL) and they face a Detroit team who allows over 3 goals per game.
Thompson has scored a goal in his previous four games and has scored a goal in 7 of 9 games played in December. To say we are more than happy to get plus money on Thompson to score anytime tonight is an understatement.

New York Rangers vs. Tampa Bay Lightning
Thursday, December 29, 2022 – 07:00 PM EST at Amalie Arena
Nikita Kucherov (Tampa Bay Lightning)
- Over/Under Points
Although the New York Rangers are one of the better NHL teams defensively we can’t look past the +150 on Nikita Kucherov to score 2+ points in tonight’s home game. Kucherov has 50 points thus far this season with 13 goals scored and has had the most assists in the entire league with a total of 37.
The Russian-born star has been on fire this season when it comes to getting on the scoreboard having had an 87% success rate scoring points in 28 of his 32 games played. Kucherov has scored 2+ game points 46% of the time, which on betting odds is +113, not the massive +150 on offer.

Chicago Blackhawks vs. St. Louis Blues
Thursday, December 29, 2022 – 08:00 PM EST at Enterprise Center
Jordan Kyrou (St. Louis Blues)
- Over/Under Shots
St Louis Blues center Jordan Kyrou has really come into his own this season, proving to be one of the Blues' top players. He had the most goals, points, and shots on the entire team.
We are targeting Kyrou's shot total today on home ice against this Chicago Blackhawks team who allow the 13th most amount of shots in the league and have played fewer games than most above them, meaning their true ranking is more like the seventh worst.
Kyrou has averaged 3.53 shots per game this season and has been on fire in recent games, having had 5/5/6/5/4 shots in his previous five NHL outings and has seen over 3.5 shots in 50% of his games played this season.
Ideally, for our NHL pick, we would like to get +100 on this bet but we believe this is a great matchup for Kyrou and don’t mind laying juice to as low as -120.
