2/17/23: Daily Picks (CBB & NHL)

After a more than profitable night of NHL picks on Thursday, we return back to the ice tonight. Our anonymous source has a long list of games tonight, with a bit of advice regarding each matchup.

Last night's NHL record: 5-0

With 5 games on tonight's slate, here's the top picks that we have for each:

NHL Plays:

Senators 60 Min ML (-160)

Chicago (16-32-5) @ Ottawa (26-24-3), 6pm CT

Winners of 6 of their last 7, Ottawa comes into the rink tonight red hot against the worst team in the entire league. Chicago has lost their last 4 road games, several of which were against team's with sub .500 records overall. I don't know a lot about hockey, but with this game in Ontario, I'll back the better team in regulation.

Islanders ML (-115)

Pittsburgh (27-17-9) @ New York (27-23-7), 6pm CT

Pittsburgh enters tonight on a 6 game losing skid against Metropolitan division mates. The Islanders are 5-2 in their last 7 against the 'Guins, with the home team posting a 4-1 record in the last 5 matchups between these 2 sides. Home team hammer.

Stars ML (-125)

Dallas (30-14-11) @ Minnesota (28-21-5), 7pm CT

The Wild are are losers of 1-5 in their last 6 overall and 1-3 in their last 4 home games. Dallas just won this matchup 4-1 last Wednesday in Dallas, despite a 2-game losing streak. This is a pure flyer, but I'll trust Texas hockey in this one.

Rangers/Oilers o7 (-110)

New York (32-14-8) @ Edmonton (30-19-6), 8pm CT

Both of these teams are projected as playoff teams, with the Rangers holding a slight edge as a projected 3 seed out of the Metro. New York has scored 6 goals exactly each of the last 3 games, while Edmonton recently posted 6, 2, and 4 games in their previous 3 respective games. Expect a high scoring affair between these two sides.

Kings 60 Min ML (-150)

LA (30-18-7) @ Anaheim (17-32-6), 8pm CT

The Ducks are terrible. Even with this one being played in Anaheim, I'll die with the Kings tonight, even despite a relatively poor road streak.

NHL Parlays:

Rangers +1.5/Kings ML (+106)

Stars ML/Kings ML (+161)

Rangers +1.5/Stars +1.5 (+100)

CBB Plays:

Siena ML (-150)

Quinnipiac (17-9) @ Siena (17-9), 8pm CT on ESPN+

KenPom: Siena 72-70

Torvik: Siena 73-69
