NHL Picks 2019-2020 by Professor MJ

NHL System Picks for Monday February 10

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 79
  • Bets lost = 91
  • Profit = +11.13 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Coyotes (@ +121 or 2.21 odds, at Canadiens)
  • 2 STARS = Panthers (@ +122 or 2.22 odds, at Flyers)
  • 2 STARS = Lightning (@ -140 or 1.71 odds, at Blue Jackets)

The Coyotes and Panthers picks are both based on "The Scoring Drought" strategy.

Here are the details of this betting angle:

"Suppose a team has lost its past two games by scoring a maximum of 3 goals in each contest. Bet them tonight if they are on the road with a money line greater than 1.80 (i.e. -125 in American format)."

This betting angle, over a nine-year period, generated a profit of 90.53 units through 1656 bets (ROI = +5.5%).

For example, the Panthers lost their past two games by 3-2 and 7-2 scores. Since they are road underdogs, we are betting them tonight.

Best of luck folks!

NHL System Picks for Tuesday February 11

We had a profitable return to action yesterday by winning two picks out of three (profit = +0.92 unit).

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 81
  • Bets lost = 92
  • Profit = +12.05 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 5 STARS = Rangers (@ 2.18 odds, at Jets)
  • 5 STARS = Senators (@ 3.40 odds, at Avalanche)
  • 2 STARS = Golden Knights (@ 1.69 odds, at Wild)
  • 2 STARS = Blackhawks (@ 2.06 odds, at Oilers)
  • 1 STAR = Flyers (@ 2.18 odds, at Islanders)

The Senators pick is based on "The Scoring Drought", "The Stingy Goalies" and "The Cold Team vs Hot Team Matchup" betting strategies.

Here are the details behind the latter strategy:

"Bet a road team coming off 2+ straight LOSSES when facing a home team coming off 2+ straight WINS. Bet only if the road team's money line is greater than 2.25 in decimal format."

Over a nine-year period, this strategy yielded a profit of 42.69 units via 428 bets.

In this case, Ottawa is undergoing a five-game losing skid, while Colorado is riding a four-game winning streak. Since the odds on the Sens are indeed larger than 2.25, we are betting them tonight!

Best of luck!

NHL System Picks for Wednesday February 12

Bad night yesterday, as we lost 2.82 units. Let's get back on our feet quickly!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 82
  • Bets lost = 96
  • Profit = +9.23 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Blackhawks (@ +133 or 2.33 odds, at Canucks)
  • 1 STAR = Canadiens (@ +185 or 2.85 odds, at Bruins)

The Montreal pick is backed by "The Big Upset" strategy:

"Suppose Team A upsets Team B with odds greater than 2.70 in decimal format (i.e. +170 in American format). If Team B's next game is against a different opponent called Team C, bet Team C if its money line is greater than 1.667 in decimal format (i.e. -150 in American format, to avoid betting big favorites which did not prove to be profitable)."

Boston's last game was a 3-1 loss in Detroit, a huge upset. For this reason, we are going to bet AGAINST the Bruins tonight (since Montreal is NOT a big favorite today).

Have a nice day!

NHL System Picks for Thursday February 13

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 82
  • Bets lost = 98
  • Profit = +7.23 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 4 STARS = Washington Capitals (@ 2.21 odds, at Avalanche)
  • 4 STARS = Edmonton Oilers (@ 2.70 odds, at Lightning)
  • 2 STARS = Blue Jackets (@ 1.91 odds, at Sabres)
  • 2 STARS = Senators (@ 2.21 odds, vs Coyotes)
  • 2 STARS = Blues (@ 2.34 odds, at Golden Knights)
  • 1 STAR = Stars (@ 2.22 odds, at Maple Leafs)
  • 1 STAR = Rangers (@ 2.27 odds, at Wild)

The Senators pick is backed by "The Cold Teams Matchup" strategy. It has two different sets of criteria for betting. Here is the one that applies to tonight's matchup:

"Bet a home underdog if it has lost at least 3 straight games and facing a team that has lost 1-2 game(s) in a row."

This system led to 44.95-unit gains over a nine-year period (through 141 bets).

Ottawa is indeed a home underdog and they have lost 6 straight games, while Arizona has lost one game in a row. According to the criteria above, we are backing the Sens tonight!

Cheers!

NHL System Picks for Tuesday February 18

We are going through a slump, but thank God we had room for error.

It's time to rebound!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 88
  • Bets lost = 106
  • Profit = +6.23 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's lone pick based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Blue Jackets (@ +131 or 2.31 odds, at Flyers)

This play is backed by "The Scoring Drought" strategy, whose details have been unveiled in a recent post.

Note: the Hurricanes meet the criteria for betting under "The Stingy Goalies" system. However, "The Big Upset" betting angle recommends betting their opponent, Nashville. Therefore, we are staying away from this matchup.

Cheers!

NHL System Picks for Wednesday February 19

On January 17th, our cumulative gain had attained +16.05 units.

Since then, the system plays have gone through a slump and are now down to a +5.23-unit profit.

Let's cross our fingers that the skid is going to stop very soon! 🙏

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 88
  • Bets lost = 107
  • Profit = +5.23 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Blackhawks (@ -129 or 1.78 odds, vs Rangers)
  • 2 STARS = Coyotes (@ +144 or 2.44 odds, at Stars)

Both picks are based on "The Snapped Winning Streak" betting angle. Here is how it goes:

"Bet against a team whose winning streak of length 3+ was just snapped in their previous game. Bet only if your team's money line is greater than 1.667 (i.e. -150 in American format)."

This betting strategy used over a nine-year period led to gains of $87.34 through 1045 bets.

In this case, both the Rangers and the Stars just got their four-game winning streak snapped, so we are fading them tonight.

Note: the Wild meet the criteria for betting under "The Scoring Drought" system. However, "The Big Upset" betting angle recommends betting their opponent, Vancouver. Therefore, we are staying away from this matchup.

Cheers!

NHL System Picks for Thursday February 20

The bad slump continued last night with a couple of lost picks. 😡

The cumulative winnings just keep shrinking, but let's try to stay in positive territory!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 88
  • Bets lost = 109
  • Profit = +3.23 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Maple Leafs (@ -110 or 1.91 odds, vs Penguins)
  • 1 STAR = Flyers (@ +108 or 2.08 odds, at Blue Jackets)

The Toronto pick is backed by "The Hot Scorers" betting angle:

"Suppose a team has scored 4+ goals in each of its past 3 games. Bet AGAINST that team if they are on the road tonight."

This system yielded a profit of 45.08 units via 332 bets over a nine-year period.

Now, the Pens have scored 5, 5 and 4 goals in their three most recent matchups. Considering they are the visiting team tonight, we are fading them.

Gooooood luck, hockey fans!

NHL System Picks for Friday February 21

There we go! A perfect 2-0 last night to break out of a slump. 🙂

Let's build some momentum!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 90
  • Bets lost = 109
  • Profit = +5.22 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Blackhawks (@ +110 or 2.10 odds, vs Predators)
  • 1 STAR = Rangers (@ +143 or 2.43 odds, at Hurricanes)
  • 1 STAR = Flames (@ +120 or 2.20 odds, vs Bruins)
  • 1 STAR = Ducks (@ +144 or 2.44 odds, vs Avalanche)

The Calgary and Anaheim picks are both based on "The Porous Defense" betting angle:

"Suppose a team allows 4+ goals in each of its past two games. Bet them tonight if they are home underdogs."

Using this system over a nine-year period led to 27.64-unit gains via 267 bets.

The Flames have allowed 4 and 8 goals in their last two meetings, while the Ducks have surrendered 4 and 6 goals. Since they are indeed home underdogs, we are backing them tonight.

My birthday this weekend! 🥳 I'll talk to you again next Monday!

NHL System Picks for Wednesday February 26

We picked 5 underdogs last night, including 4 with big odds. All we needed was a couple of wins.

In the early games, the Flames upset the Bruins 5-2. Things were looking up!

However, all four remaining picks lost, including the Jets in a shootout (and the Hawks blowing a 3-1 lead).

Overall, we ended up losing 2.15 units.

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 93
  • Bets lost = 115
  • Profit = +3.60 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's lone pick based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 4 STARS = Sabres (@ +185 or 2.85 odds, at Avalanche)

This pick is based on the following two betting strategies: "The Stingy Goalies" and "The Hot Teams Matchup."

Here are the details about the latter:

"Bet a road team coming off 1-2 straight win(s) when facing a home team coming off 3+ straight wins."

This system yielded a profit of 66.87 units via 483 bets over a nine-year period.

According to this betting strategy, since the Sabres have won two games in a row and the Avs are riding a three-game winning streak, we're going to back Buffalo.

Good luck!

NHL System Picks for Thursday February 27

The slide continued last night, as the system plays have been stinking lately!

The season profit has now gone from 16 units to less than 3 units right now...

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 93
  • Bets lost = 116
  • Profit = +2.60 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 3 STARS = Stars (@ +155 or 2.55 odds, at Bruins)
  • 1 STAR = Flames (@ +115 or 2.15 odds, at Predators)
  • 1 STAR = Devils (@ +129 or 2.29 odds, at Sharks)
  • 1 STAR = RedWings (@ +188 or 2.88 odds, vs Wild)

Following the recent slump, I figured I'd issue some warnings about some games.

With the season coming to an end fairly soon, the motivation level plays a large role.

For this reason, I advise being cautious about the Detroit pick. Minnesota is fighting for its playoff lives, while the Wings are eliminated.

Still, my role is to point out which teams meet the criteria for betting under systems I developed. I'm not going to omit/remove plays because I don't like them.

The objective was to find out whether those betting strategies would do well or not, so we're not going to change course and I'm still going to report such plays.

However, from a betting perspective I just wanted to issue some additional insight.

Have a good day (snowstorm here in Quebec City today!).

NHL System Picks for Friday February 28

I don't recall going through such a rough streak in a long time. The systems have done extremely poorly this month.

RECORD:


  • Bets won = 93
  • Bets lost = 120
  • Profit = -1.40 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:


  • 1 STAR = Rangers (@ +145 or 2.45 odds, at Flyers)
  • 1 STAR = Wild (@ +108 or 2.08 odds, at Blue Jackets)
  • 1 STAR = Ducks (@ +170 or 2.70 odds, vs Penguins)

NHL System Picks for Monday March 2nd

Finally a positive day... We made it back above 0.

Let's hope for a rebound month in March!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 95
  • Bets lost = 121
  • Profit = +0.38 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 2 STARS = Oilers (@ +119 or 2.19 odds, at Predators)
  • 1 STAR = Red Wings (@ +263 or 3.63 odds, vs Avalanche)

Let me be clear: I don't necessarily like the Detroit pick. They have nothing to play for, while Colorado is in the thick of the playoff race.

However, since my role is to report the plays that meet the criteria for betting under my 10 betting angles, I am letting you know about it.

The Oilers pick is backed by "The Snapped Winning Streak" betting strategy.

Have a good Monday, fellows!

Professor MJ
 
NHL System Picks for Tuesday March 3rd

Slight gains last night with 1 win out of two (thanks to the Oilers pulling off a small upset in Nashville).

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 96
  • Bets lost = 122
  • Profit = +0.57 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 5 STARS = Devils (@ +240 or 3.40 odds, at Golden Knights)
  • 4 STARS = Predators (@ +118 or 2.18 odds, at Wild)
  • 2 STARS = Sabres (@ +140 or 2.40 odds, at Jets)
  • 2 STARS = Sharks (@ +140 or 2.40 odds, vs Maple Leafs)
  • 1 STAR = Rangers (@ +125 or 2.25 odds, vs Blues)
  • 1 STAR = Oilers (@ +155 or 2.55 odds, at Stars)

The Devils pick is based on "The Big Upset", "The Blowout" and "The Snapped Winning Streak" betting strategies.

Here are the details about "The Blowout" system:

Bet a road underdog if they beat their previous opponent by a margin of 3 goals or more ("underdog" = money line greater than 2.05, i.e. +105).

This betting angle generated gains of 60.49 units over 818 bets through a 9-year span.

The Devils' last game was a 3-0 win in Anaheim. Since they are indeed on the road tonight with odds above 2.05, we are backing them.

Good luck with your plays!

NHL System Picks for Wednesday March 4th

A loss of 1.05 unit last night. Let's try to rebound right away!

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 98
  • Bets lost = 126
  • Profit = -0.48 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 5 STARS = Ducks (@ +255 or 3.55 odds, at Avalanche)
  • 2 STARS = Capitals (@ -148 or 1.68 odds, vs Flyers)

The betting strategies don't pick favorites very often, but we have one tonight. The Flyers-Capitals matchup should be interesting!

Have a nice day!

Professor MJ
 
NHL System Picks for Thursday March 5th

Huge upset by the Ducks last night in Colorado! It generated a profit of 2.55 units. 💰

Too bad the Caps lost their big showdown with the Flyers (for a 1-unit loss since we're always risking 1 unit).

Overall: +1.55 unit yesterday.

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 99
  • Bets lost = 127
  • Profit = +1.07 unit (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's picks based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 4 STARS = Hurricanes (@ +116 or 2.16 odds, at Flyers)
  • 4 STARS = Wild (@ -111 or 1.90 odds, at Sharks)
  • 2 STARS = Rangers (@ +126 or 2.26 odds, vs Capitals)
  • 2 STARS = Kings (@ +157 or 2.57 odds, vs Maple Leafs)
  • 1 STAR = Canadiens (@ +165 or 2.65 odds, at Lightning)

Happy Thursday everyone!

NHL System Picks for Friday March 6th

BIG RED ALERT!!! 🚨🚨🚨

For just the 2nd time ALL SEASON, we have a play that fits 4 betting systems at a time so keep reading until the end!

The only other occurrence: we picked Detroit vs Boston at +220 odds (i.e. 3.20 in decimal format) on November 8th, which ended up being a winner!

The month of March has been very good to us!

Another winning day last night with a +1.73-unit profit.

RECORD:
  • Bets won = 102
  • Bets lost = 129
  • Profit = +2.80 units (from RISKING 1 unit on every play)

Today's lone pick based on my 10 NHL betting systems:
  • 5 STARS = Canucks (@ +111 or 2.11 odds, vs Avalanche)

Vancouver meets the criteria for betting under "The Big Upset", "The Porous Defense", "The Snapped Winning Streak" and "The Cold Teams Matchup" betting angles.

Here are the secrets behing "The Big Upset" betting strategy:

"Suppose Team A upsets Team B with odds greater than 2.70 in decimal format (i.e. +170 in American format). If Team B's next game is against a different opponent called Team C, bet Team C if its money line is greater than 1.667 in decimal format (i.e. -150 in American format, to avoid betting big favorites which did not prove to be profitable)."

This sytem led to a 27.81-unit gain over 600 bets.

Colorado's last game was a 4-3 loss against the Ducks, a huge upset which happened to be one of our picks that day.

For this reason (and because of the other three systems), we are going to bet AGAINST the Avalanche tonight.

Have a GREAT weekend!!!
