Ottawa (9-11-3) at Philadelphia (10-11-2)

When: Tuesday, November 27, 2018 at 7:00 PM ET
Where: Wells Fargo Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Ottawa has gone 4-5-1 in their last 10 games, but they hit the new week riding an uninspiring three-game losing streak that includes a humbling 6-4 loss at Dallas on Friday night. Philadelphia has gone 4-4-2 in their last 10 games and the Flyers come into the new week off an embarrassing 6-0 shutout loss at Toronto on Saturday.

For this Tuesday night matchup, I’m going to advise you to back Philadelphia in this pairing of mediocre teams. The Flyers are a modest 5-6-1 at home, but Ottawa is an awful 2-7-1 on the road. While the Sens rank a stellar third in scoring, Ottawa is also giving up a mind-bogging 4.3 goals per game defensively to rank 31st in goals allowed. Philly wins in a shootout.

NHL Betting Pick: Philadelphia 5 Ottawa 4

Pittsburgh (9-8-5) at Colorado (13-6-4)

When: Wednesday, November 28 at 9:30 PM ET
Where: Pepsi Center, Denver, CO

Pittsburgh is just 3-5-2 over their last 10 games, but Pittsburgh did manage to beat Columbus 4-2 on Saturday to improve to 2-1 over their last three games. Colorado has gone 6-2-2 over their last 10 games and the Avalanche ride an impressive four-game winning streak into the new week that includes a hard-fought 3-2 win over Dallas on Saturday.

Pittsburgh has struggled all season long while Colorado has been one of the most pleasant surprises in the league so far. While the Penguins rank a solid eighth in scoring (3.4 gpg), they’ve been uninspiring in ranking 21st in gaols allowed (21st). Conversely, Colorado ranks a stupendous second in scoring (3.7 gpg) and an equally impressive ninth in goals allowed (2.8 gpg). I’m going to advise you to back the high-scoring Avalanche to get past the still-explosive Penguins in a shootout.

NHL Betting Pick: Colorado 6 Pittsburgh 5

Vegas (12-12-1) at Vancouver (11-13-2)

When: Thursday, November 29 at 10:00 PM ET
Where: Rogers Arena, Vancouver, B.C.

Vegas has gone 6-4 over their last 10 games and the Knights ride a three-game winning streak into the new week that includes an emphatic 6-0 shutout win over San Jose on Saturday night. Vancouver has gone an uninspiring 2-7-1 in their last 10 games, but the Canucks managed to snap a pitiful eight-game losing streak by getting past Los Angeles 4-2 on Saturday.

For this Thursday night matchup, I have no doubt that Vegas is going to march into Vancouver and lay an emphatic smackdown on the Canucks that builds on their recent winning ways and improving status as a legitimate Stanley Cup challenger moving forward. The Knights will be looking to improve on their uninspiring 5-9 road record and I like them to do just that against a Vancouver team that ranks 28th in goals allowed (3.5 gpg).

NHL Betting Pick: Vegas 5 Vancouver 2
