The one thing you can rely on in the NHL is that teams who are flying too high or too low will eventually pull back towards the middle. It’s a league with a lot of parity, in a sport with a lot of randomness.

Of the major team sports, hockey is the one whose results have been seen to be least dictated by actual skill, which is why a team like the Ottawa Senators was right not to panic in November. The Sens just could not win, but overall, they were playing pretty well. That’s finally turned, and they’re now 4-1-0 in their last five games.

Ottawa Senators to beat Los Angeles Kings 

Speaking of the Senators, they took a rough hit with Artem Zub being hit in the face with the puck and unable to play in the short term, but the team as a whole has been firing on all cylinders lately, especially Brady Tkachuk and Tim Stutzle.

Los Angeles is a legitimately good team, but they’ve been ice-cold lately with just three wins in 10 games, with their goaltending in particular taking their legs out from under them on a consistent basis.

Jason Robertson (Dallas Stars) and Auston Matthews (Toronto Maple Leafs) to both score anytime 

Jason Robertson is doing this year what Matthews was doing last year, scoring at will and nearly every single game. Matthews has been better lately, but while he’s on pace for a 39-goal season, we’re used to 60-goal paces or better from him at this point.

Perhaps playing against the force of nature that is Robertson this season will wake Matthews up from his relative slumber? While he’s still a great player at the pace he’s playing, he hasn’t seemed like the Matthews we all know.

Seattle Kraken to beat Montreal Canadiens 

With the Canadiens coming off of a back-to-back with travel, with games starting less than 24 hours apart, against one of the hottest teams in the NHL, this is as easy of a bet as it gets.

On top of that, Sam Montembeault played on Monday, and he’s easily been the better of the two goaltenders so far this year, so Jake Allen will start this one.

The payout isn’t going to be that impressive, but the chances of the Canadiens winning this game are incredibly small.

Shane Wright (Seattle Kraken) to score anytime vs Montreal Canadiens

Called up after a conditioning stint in the American Hockey League, Shane Wright gets to play in the NHL once more with a bit of a clean slate, and the team he faces off against is the team that passed him over at first overall back in the summer.

Much was made at the time of Wright supposedly staring down the Canadiens’ draft table when he was finally taken by the Kraken at No. 4, but whether that was true or not, he likely has a lot to prove in this game, and it would be quite fitting if he scored the first goal of his NHL career against Montreal.
