NHL Best Bets for Thursday, May 14<\/p>\n
Odds via DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a><\/p>\n Montreal Canadiens (+102) at Buffalo SabresAnaheim Ducks (-108) vs. Vegas Golden KnightsColorado Avalanche -1.5 (+114) vs. Minnesota Wild\u00a0<\/p>\n I broke down this pick in the Canadiens vs. Sabres betting preview<\/a>:<\/p>\n The Canadiens have been the better team overall in this series, but that\u2019s not to say that the Sabres don\u2019t deserve to have it tied 2-2.<\/p>\n Montreal has shown that it can go on the road and win big games. They won both Games 5 and 7 in Tampa Bay in the first round, and got a 5-1 win in Buffalo in Game 2.<\/p>\n Goaltending is huge in the playoffs. Dobes is someone that the Canadiens have confidence in, while the Sabres have already used both of their netminders.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll back the Canadiens as slight road underdogs tonight.<\/p>\n Anaheim Ducks (-108) vs. Vegas Golden Knights<\/p>\n I explained in the Golden Knights vs. Ducks betting preview<\/a> why I like Anaheim to force a Game 7 tonight:<\/p>\n I don\u2019t expect the zig-zag nature of this series to stop now.<\/p>\n The Golden Knights have been without Mark Stone for the past two games. Stone is a key part of Vegas\u2019 team, and while the Knights were able to claw out an overtime win at home, his potential absence looms large on the road.<\/p>\n Vegas will also be without defenseman Brayden McNabb, who was suspended one game for his hit on Ryan Poehling.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll take the Ducks one more time at home.<\/p>\n Claim the latest DraftKings promo code<\/a> offer today.
