NHL Predictions for Saturday, February 19th 2022

Now that the NFL season is over, more attention is going to be paid to the National Hockey League, especially when it comes to betting. There is a full slate of NHL games on the schedule for Saturday, and there are also some great betting options.

When betting on the NHL, it is important to take a close look at a number of different betting options. Here are the best NHL bets for Saturday, February 19.

Moneyline Underdog: Anaheim Ducks +190

Ducks vs. Canucks Picks

Upsets happen every single day in the NHL, and betting on a moneyline underdog is always a great option. There are a couple of good options for Saturday night, but the best bet is to look at the Anaheim Ducks.

The Ducks are in Vancouver on Saturday night for a matchup with the Canucks. Anaheim has actually had a better season than Vancouver, and the overall statistics favor the Ducks as well.

This should be a tight game, but look for the road team to pick up the win and earn the two points.

NHL Puck Line Odds

Puck Line: Calgary Flames -1.5

Kraken vs. Flames Picks

Since a large number of NHL games are decided by just one goal, there is always a risk of betting the puck line and predicting that a team will win by at least two goals. There is one game on Saturday night where this shouldn’t be an issue as the Calgary Flames host the Seattle Kraken.

Seattle has had a tough time since joining the league as an expansion team, and Calgary looks like a pretty safe bet to reach the postseason. Strange things can always happen in the NHL, but this just feels like a game that might get out of hand in a hurry.

Take the Flames -1.5 as they have little trouble with the Kraken.

Over/Under: Kings at Coyotes Under 5.5 Goals

Kings vs. Coyotes Picks

The standard over/under line for NHL games is set at 5.5 goals, and that is what you will find for this matchup between the Los Angeles Kings and Arizona Coyotes. These are two of the lowest-scoring teams in the NHL, and you shouldn’t expect much offense in this showdown.

Los Angeles is clearly the better team in this game, and don’t expect to see Arizona doing much scoring at all. The Kings will win this game, and the total amount of goals will be under 5.5.

NHL Puck Line Picks

Parlay Bet: Maple Leafs -175 / Boston Bruins -200

Blues vs. Maples Leafs Picks / Bruins vs. Senators Picks

There are two games that don’t really have good betting options available, but things change a bit when you include them in a parlay. Creating a two-team parlay on big moneyline favorites can actually still result in a solid payday.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are at home against the St. Louis Blues, and they are pretty solid favorites. This is a matchup of two great offensive teams, but the Maple Leafs should be able to take control.

Boston is on the road in Ottawa, and the Bruins are big favorites against a struggling Senators team. This game might get out of hand, but it’s a smart decision to take the Bruins at -200 in this parlay.
