Too many games tonight in my opinion. Ya’ll know I like big slates in other sports and small slates in NHL and that’s just the way that it is with me.

Brayden Point – Tampa Bay
A return home to Tampa is in store and let’s see if the Bolts can focus on the task at hand ahead of the invasion of a bunch of drunk Pirates into Tampa this weekend. The Devils are 29th in goals allowed, 31st in assists allowed and 27th overall in FPPG allowed to centers over the past month. And quite frankly, their rankings before the month of January were not very good either.
Chris Kreider – Rangers
How the hell does Chris Kreider already have 30 goals you ask? Fuck if I know, but he does and he’s on fire right now producing like an 8k player would but only $6300.
She Theodore – Golden Knights
Back to the state of Florida we go, the Knights are really playing well and getting a Panthers team who hasn’t been as lock down as they started the season. Should be a high volume game all around in south Florida.

Anaheim Ducks vs Montreal Canadiens
Ryan Getzlaf, Troy Terry, Trevor Zegras
Nick Suzuki, Tyler Toffoli, Aturi Lehkonen
The Ducks recent games have been against Pittsburgh, Minnesota, Chicago, Colorado, Tampa, Boston and Toronto. Outside of Chicago that’s a pretty brutal stretch and now they get Montreal which is going to feel like facing Tanner Roark after a week against Jacob deGrom, Walker Buehler and the Milwaukee Pitching staff. But don’t sleep on the Habs here too, nice game to bet the over on and roll some SGP on overs for props…

New York Rangers
Mika Zibanejad, Chris Kreider, Artemi Panarin, Adam Fox
A heavy stack here tonight but a nice team to target. Korpisalo is projected in net for Columbus and he’s trash in my opinion. Yes we have Bread man back in C-Bus, but Kreider is on fire overall. Any PP exposure here is good tonight.

Calgary Flames
Elias Lindholm, Matthew Tkachuk, Johnny Gaudreau
As a team in their last five games the Flames are … well, Flaming … Averaging 39.2 shots per game, over 3.5 goals per game and the top line is rolling. St. Louis at home is typically good, so either go all in or dont touch the Flames.

Connor Hellebuyck (Jets)
Could it be a trap for 7600 at home vs the Canucks? Is this a scenario where it says Hellebuyck but really it’s Hey-you-suck? I hope not. They give up 32 shots per game and the Canucks shoot it > 32 times per game. High volume expected.
Tristan Jarry (Penguins)
Ilya Sorokin (Islanders)
