Top Shelf Picks: NHL Best Bets Today

Thursday Night NHL Matchups

Thursday night features nine NHL games, starting with the Boston Bruins hosting the Ottawa Senators in an Atlantic Division clash at 7 p.m., and ending with the Florida Panthers visiting the Los Angeles Kings.

Best Bets Overview

The focus for Thursday's bets includes a home underdog, a home favorite, and a road underdog, with carefully selected odds from top betting sites.

Boston Bruins vs. Ottawa Senators

The Bruins enter the game on a four-game winning streak, showcasing strong home performance with a 6-3-0 record at TD Garden, compared to a less impressive 2-4-0 on the road. The Senators have a 2-3-1 record away and a 4-2-1 record at home. Despite losing two of their last three games, Ottawa is favored due to four days of rest after a shootout loss in Montreal, which may initially affect their rhythm.

"The Bruins are starting to turn a corner and have a good chance of pulling off the upset on Thursday night."

Buffalo Sabres vs. St. Louis Blues

The St. Louis Blues are coming off a heavy 6-1 defeat in Washington, while the Buffalo Sabres await them at home, potentially capitalizing on the opponent's recent struggles.

Summary

Thursday's NHL slate presents intriguing betting opportunities, especially with the Bruins showing momentum and the Blues seeking redemption after a tough loss.
