Free NHL Picks, Best Bets, and Parlays For 3/3/22

With only 4 games on the schedule last night, it would have been nice to hit them all, but that wouldn’t be the NHL if that happened. It is difficult picking games at this juncture of the season.

We hit our Best Bet of the Day as the Stars beat the Kings 4-3. That evens our record at 8-8.

We went 1-3 betting the MoneyLine lowering our overall record to 56-39 for the past 2 weeks.

Today there are 9 games on the schedule so let’s see if we can figure some winners out.

*PAPA DUDES BEST BET OF THE DAY* Edmonton at Chicago: The Oilers are at the end of a 5-game road trip in which they are 2-2 against some of the best teams in the Eastern Conference. They have won 8 out of their last 10 and a win against Chicago tonight would keep the ball rolling. Meanwhile, the Blackhawks are going nowhere fast. The fear is they have enough to talent to pull off a surprise from time-to-time and will Edmonton be looking forward to getting home. . PAPA DUDES BEST BET: Bet the MoneyLine on the Oilers -150

Boston at Vegas: This is a great matchup tonight in Vegas. Boston is finishing up a long road trip out west and the Knights are trying to get back on track. I think the Bruins might be ready to get back home. PAPA DUDES PICK: Bet the MoneyLine on Vegas -115

Pittsburgh at Tampa Bay: This the best game of the night between two very solid playoff-bound teams. The Penguins are probably playing a notch below the Lightning, but they still are a formidable opponent every night. I love the way the Lightning play and I’m going with them on home ice tonight. PAPA DUDES PICK: Bet the MoneyLine on Tampa Bay -170

Vancouver at New York Islanders: This is a toss-up type of game between these two teams. The Canucks still have a shot at the playoffs and need every win they can get. The Islanders are playing for next season. I like the Canucks in this one. PAPA DUDES PICK: Bet the MoneyLine on Vancouver +100

Carolina at Washington: The Capitals are really in a funk and need a win in the worst way. The problem is; Carolina is one of the best teams in the league. I’m taking the Canes. PAPA DUDES PICK: Bet the MoneyLine on Carolina -125

THE REST OF THE GAMES:

Florida over Ottawa

Minnesota over Philadelphia

Calgary over Montreal

Colorado over Phoenix
