Thursday NHL Bets: Peterson picks Philadelphia Flyers vs New Jersey Devils, Buffalo Sabres vs Boston Bruins

Philadelphia Flyers (-130) @ New Jersey Devils (+108), 7 pm EDT

Both the Philadelphia Flyers (22-20-7) and New Jersey Devils (15-27-7) have struggled all season long with different hurdles. As both teams sit far outside of playoff contention, there isn't a whole lot for either team to fight for anymore so avoid the Moneylines. The last three meetings between these two teams have gone over six total goals, and the Devils past seven games have all hit the over. With both teams goaltending looking highly suspect and the total going over at a high percentage, lean on the total here.

PICK: Over 6 (-102)

Buffalo Sabres (+320) @ Boston Bruins (-390), 7 pm EDT

The Boston Bruins (28-14-6) are 7-3 in their last ten games and arguably one of the hotter teams in the NHL as of late. On Thursday night, Boston will host the Buffalo Sabres (13-30-7) who are 4-6 in their last ten games. Boston has won four of the past five meetings against Buffalo, two of which by two plus goals. With the Bruins firing on all cylinders, take them on the Puck Line here.

PICK: Boston Bruins -1.5 (-125)
