Daily NHL Tips – Wednesday, January 15

Philadelphia Flyers @ Columbus Blue Jackets, 11:08am 

The Jackets are an easy bet in this spot, particularly at the $1.80 price currently on offer. 

Columbus has won four straight to improve their Wild Card chances, although it’s hard to read too much into wins over the Kraken (twice), the Blues, and the Penguins. 

That said, the Flyers are at the same level as those teams above, even if they just knocked off the Panthers last night in dramatic fashion. 

Philly has won back-to-back games only three times all year, so with the Jackets rested off a two-day break, the current price feels like a steal. 

  • Tip: Back the Blue Jackets to Win @ $1.80 

Samuel Ersson is pegged to start for the Flyers, which is great news after giving up four goals to the Jackets last month.  

Kirill Marchenko scored one in the third period, and the Russian has stayed quietly hot adding two more over his last five games. 

  • Tip: Kirill Marchenko Anytime Goal Scorer $2.55 
Florida Panthers @ New Jersey Devils, 11:08am 

The Cats fell to the Flyers 4-3 in Philly last night as they now head further East for a tricky matchup with the well-rested Devils.  

New Jersey has enjoyed two days off in preparation and it looks as though Florida will turn to backup goalie Spencer Knight after playing Sergei Bobrovsky between the pipes on Tuesday.  

Now in his fourth year, Knight has started just once over the Panthers’ last seven games where he held the Penguins to two goals in a 3-2 win. 

Still, this is a different test against a Devils team that has gone 13-6-3 at home on the year, so it’s worth backing New Jersey with some value on offer. 

  • Tip: Back the Devils to Win @ $1.70 

If you’re looking for a goal scorer bet, look no further than Jack Hughes.  

New Jersey’s talented center has scored twice this month and has also found the back of the net in two of his last four games against the Panthers. 

  • Tip: Jack Hughes Anytime Goal Scorer @ $2.35
