Daily NHL Tips – Thursday, December 5

Nashville Predators @ Toronto Maple Leafs, 11:38am 
Tip: Back the Leafs to Cover the Line (-1.5 Goals) @ $2.45 

The Leafs are humming right now coming off a pair of multi-goal wins over the Lightning and Blackhawks. 

Toronto enjoyed a more relaxed schedule playing on two games last week, which could prove a huge advantage here against a Preds side playing off a three-day break. 

Auston Matthews was back on the score sheet on Tuesday and there’s been plenty to like about Anthony Stolarz in net. 

With a back-to-back against the Caps and Penguins to follow over the weekend, it’s worth riding the Leafs’ hot hand for the time being. 

  • Player Pick: John Tavares Anytime Goal Scorer 
Dallas Stars @ Los Angeles Kings, 2:08pm 
Tip: Back the Kings to Win @ $1.98 

Bit of an edge here on the Kings if you’re willing to take the risk. 

The Stars have won a couple of impressive games over the last week against the Avs and Jets, but they’ve also played three games over the last four days. 

Compared to a Kings team that has enjoyed a nice three-day break, the added rest could see the home side pinch a win over one of their top conference foes.
