Today's NHL Hockey Picks:

Game: Chicago at Philadelphia (1:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 3 units on Chicago -120 (moneyline) (risk 3 to win 2.5)

The Blackhawks have had one bad stretch this season, but that has come and gone. When this team is playing well, and they are right now, they are tough to beat anywhere. They have come out on the right side of 11 of their last 17 road games, so this is a good price on this one for the road chalk. The Flyers aren't playing nearly as well right now, having dropped three of their last five games. The Blackhawks are now 51-23 in their last 74 as a favorite, and 8-1 after their opponent allows 5+ goals in their last game. The Flyers have shown little bite as a home dog where they have posted a money-burning 9-29 mark in their last 38 in that role. I'm going with Chicago here.

The Blackhawks have passed their dark spot on the season and have it rolling again. Furthermore, they are in a very favorable situation for this one. They have posted the win in 51 of their last 74 as a favorite, while the Flyers are one of the worst home teams when posted as a dog in the NHL at 9-29 in their last 38. Catching huge odds here in a game that will likely be won by the Blackhawks, and giving away 1.5 goals in this situation is full of value. I'll go with Chicago on the puckline.

The Devils haven't won three in a row since Christmas, but I think they get it done here in New York. Broduer is playing well and the offense is clicking, having scored 3+ goals in four of their last five games. In division games this season, the Devils are allowing just 1.9 goals per game and with New York's offense struggling, that spells trouble for the Islanders here. I like New Jersey here.
