We are firing on all cylinders. Yesterday, we went 7-2-1 and hit our bonus +603 3 leg parlay for the cherry on top of the cherry to make us very profitable to start the week. It's been awhile since we were ahead so much in the beginning of the week. It's a little unfamiliar feeling, but I like it. I would not be betting against us right now, I feel really good and brimming with confidence more than Claude Giroux after he got moved out of that hellhole in Philly. It really wouldn't be a Stat Glitchers article without one shot at the Flyers would it? We have 3 bets to keep riding the Profit Train this week.
J.T. Miller o2.5 shots @ Vegas (-125)
J.T. Miller was the talk of trade rumors mostly made up by Maple Leaf kool-aid drinkers hoping to get a very talented player to join their roster, praying that it was true. I didn't personally buy that he would be traded out of Vancouver, because he's been their best forward this season, unquestioned. You can't just let this type of caliber player walk away for nothing, and frequently we see that happen on deadline deals. The fact of the matter is that Miller has destroyed his shot line in the last 5 games in a row. 24 shots in the last 5 games is pretty good. Therefore, I smash bet on the over 2.5 shot line against Vegas.
Lucas Raymond o2.5 shots @ Winnipeg (-105)
Lucas Raymond has been impressive to me, but he is not immune to the rookie cold and hot streaks most will experience. At one point in the season, when he was the unquestioned leader in rookie points scored, he cooled off sensationally as he was going through a struggle. Recently, he has picked back up his offensive touch and I like what I'm seeing from him. He has 5 points in the last 5 games, and when we look into Winnipeg's defensive performance, something is really off here lately. In the last 10 games they have let up an average of 37.2 shots against.
Robert Thomas o0.5 points VS Seatte (-155)
With 11 points in the last 6 games played, we are seeing a lot out of Rob Thomas. He is playing at a point-per-game performance this year, for the first time in his career. I would really be impressed if he finishes the season with 70-80 points. Seattle comes in with about 3.8 goals against average on the road in the last 10 games. Thomas again has better odds for an assist, but I am confident for a point at the very least.
