Ron Raymond’s NHL Hockey Predictions March 27th

Ron Raymond is one of Canada’s top hockey handicappers and believes you should be watching your units when wagering on a big day like Saturday where’s there’s 12 games on tap. Betting on a busy Saturday is a good way to go broke in my view, but as long as you are using the “Less is more” strategy and stay away from betting on big favorites, you should live to bet another day!

Food for thought:

“What hurts more, losing -200 betting on a favorite like Pittsburgh to win $100 or losing -100 on the Florida panthers but have a chance of winning $160?” You should always look both when crossing betting avenue!”

March 27 NHL PICKS

Here are today’s NHL Picks for Sat, March 27, 2010.

• Boston PK -120 vs. Calgary: The Flames have a big game on deck Sunday with a tilt with Ovechkin and the Capitals. Talk about your major look a head situation on what should be a NBC Game of the week situation. When CALGARY team Played as Road team as a Underdog - During the month of March - Coming off a 1 game loss; the Flames are 5-12-3 SU in this spot.

• Pittsburgh PK -200 vs. Philadelphia: The Flyers are 1-6 SU in their last 7 games and without a reliable goaltender; you have to wonder if they will even make the playoffs? When PITTSBURGH team Played as Home team as a Favorite - During the month of March - After a non division game - Coming off vs Southeast division opponent; the Penguins are 9-2-3 SU in this situation.

• Columbus PK -150 vs. NY Islanders: I would recommend you don’t bet this game, the Jackets are caught in a “Blackhawks sandwich” , but Garon is expected to start and he hasn’t lost a home game all year! When NY ISLANDERS Played as a Underdog - During Last 5 Years - Won Last Game by 1 Goals; the Islanders are 17-39 SU in this position the last 5 seasons.

• Montreal PK -110 vs. New Jersey: Everything says New Jersey at -110 is a steal right? But the Devils are 1-10 SU the last 60 days on the road and they have a division game on deck with the Flyers on Sunday. When MONTREAL team played as a home team - Vs Atlantic opponent - playing on Saturday - Coming off a 3 goal win; the Habs are 7-3-1 SU in this spot since ’96.

• NY Rangers PK -110 vs. Toronto: The Rangers are 4-0 SU on the road this season after two division games and they are getting solid goaltending. Plus, both goalies are Swedish, so you don’t think that’s going to be a headline in Sweden? The King vs. The Monster in the Big Smoke! When NY RANGERS team played as a Road team - Vs Eastern conference opponent - Last 5 years - Coming off vs Atlantic division opponent - Coming off a 2 game winning streak; the Rangers are 8-3 SU in this spot.

• Carolina PK -140 vs. Atlanta: Canes are 9-3 SU the last 2 months at home, but be careful; they might have a letdown game after their big win over the Caps. When CAROLINA team played as a home team - Last 5 years - During the month of March - Coming off vs Southeast division opponent; the Canes are 12-3 SU in this spot.

• Florida PK +160 vs. Ottawa: Clemmensen is scheduled to get the nod vs. the Sens and he’s 3-0 lifetime vs. Ottawa. Ottawa won last night, so law of average says the road dog here! When FLORIDA team Played as Road team as a Underdog - With 1 day off - Last 2 years - Coming off a 1 game loss; the Panthers are 9-3 SU in this spot.

• Buffalo -200 vs. Tampa Bay: Miller is 16-3 SU vs. the Lightning in his career and Tampa Bay doesn’t play well in this building, they are 2-8 SU in their last 10 visits to the HSBC Arena. When TAMPA BAY team played as a Road team - Total is 5.5 - Coming off a Road win as a Underdog - Coming off a 2 goal win; the Lightning are 1-10-2 SU in this spot since 1996.

• Nashville PK -115 vs. Detroit: Everything points to the Red Wings, but after a big win last night and an overnight red eye to music city, the Preds are the value play here this evening. When NASHVILLE team played as Home team as a Favorite - During the month of March - Scored 4 or more goals FOR in their last game - Coming off a Home win as a Favorite; the Preds are 9-1 SU in this spot since 2001.

• Colorado PK +120 vs. Phoenix: I feel these two teams are very much alike; they seem to rise better in the underdog role, which tells us to bet on the Avs. When PHOENIX team played as a home team - playing on Saturday - With 1 day off - Allowed 4 goals AGAINST in their last game; the Coyotes are 5-12-1 SU in this role.

• San Jose PK -145 vs. Vancouver: Great goaltending duel, Luongo is 6-9 SU vs. the Sharks, while Naby is 12-6-1, let’s go with the Sharks at the tank tonight. When SAN JOSE played as a home team - During Last 5 Years - With SU Record of 2 Win 5 Lost in L7G; the Sharks are 9-3 SU in this cycle the L5Y.

• LA Kings PK -170 vs. Dallas: Would love to pull the trigger on the Stars here this evening, but the Kings are a perfect 6-0 SU this year at home when playing their 3rd game in 4 nights and the Kings have their number at home L3Y. The Kings are 6-0 at home this year when playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, so they are not fatigue in that last game of this situation. Plus, the Kings are 7-2 SU vs. the Stars at the Staples Center the last 3 seasons.
