NHL Playoffs Betting Preview: 3 Best Bets for Wednesday, April 24

It is a great time of year to be a sports fan. The NFL Draft is a day away, the MLB is getting off to a hot start, and the NBA and NHL are in the thick of the playoffs. There are multiple games to watch every night, giving fans of every league something to root for.

When looking ahead at tonight’s sporting action, we decided to put together our best bets for the NHL slate. There are three games going on tonight, and each of them has massive implications for the rest of their respective series.

With that in mind, let’s go over our best bets from the ice tonight. Best of luck!

Boston Bruins (+100, FanDuel)

At the time of publication, FanDuel is the only book that’s offering the Bruins at plus money. We had to take their moneyline in this instance!

The Bruins played well in Game 1, beating the Maple Leafs 5-1. However, after losing a heartbreaker in Game 2, it seems like the Bruins are going back to Jeremy Swayman in net, even though Linus Ullmark played well in Game 2.

With this in mind, we think the Bruins will bounce back in a big way, and if we can get them at plus money, we’ll take that all night long!

Knights & Stars OVER 6.5 Goals (+125, BetRivers)

This might be our favorite play of the night. The Golden Knights and the Stars both have elite scorers who can take control of the game, which is what happened in Game 1.

Look for both teams to keep the momentum going, scoring at least 7 goals in what should be a great matchup.

Oilers & Kings OVER 9 Total Goals (+800, BetRivers)

It might seem crazy to take this level of action in this game, but we’re taking another over tonight.

The Oilers and Kings combined for 11 goals in Game 1, and we’re thinking the same thing can happen tonight.

If you want to take the over at 6.5 or 7.5, we certainly wouldn’t blame you, but with this positive of juice, it’s certainly worth at least a sprinkle in our mind.
