Yesterday, I went 2-2, breaking even on the day overall (+0.1u). Anytime you break even on the night, I count that as a win (insert Hulk “Absolute Win” meme here). Now, let’s dive into my 5-plus money bets I have for you all tonight!

Bet #1 – Trouba/Hertl o1.5 Shots (+140)

It’s always fun when you can find players with 1.5 shot lines that clearly shouldn’t be available. Jacob Trouba hit on over 1.5 shots in 70% of his games last season, averaging 2.5 shots per game. Tomas Hertl hit on over 1.5 shots in 78% of his game last season, also averaging 2.5 shots per game. Both players have hit over 1.5 shots in each of their game so far this year.

Bet #2 – Nikita Kucherov Goal (+140)

Kucherov has scored in each of his last 8 games against the Blue Jackets. Last season, he averaged a goal in 45% of his games. Kucherov also did not tally a goal on Tuesday, so I think he’ll get his first goal of the year tonight. This line is apparently +160 on Caesar’s Sportsbook, so take that line if you can.

Bet #3 – Timo Meier o3.5 Shots (+105)

I love me some Timo Meier. He had the 3rd most shots in the NHL last season, averaging 4.2 shots per game. He hit on o3.5 shots 62% of the time and has hit in both of his games this year so far.

Bet #4 – Kyle Connor o3.5 Shots (+120)

Kyle Connor finished right behind Timo Meier in SOG last year, coming in 4th place in the NHL. He averaged 4 shots per game and hit on o3.5 shots 53% of the time. I don’t know why both these players are plus money tonight, but I’m not going to ask any questions.

Bet #5 – Nick Suzuki o2.5 Shots (+125)

Both the Canadiens and the Red Wings allow a lot of shots and the Red Wings allowed the 3rd most shots to opposing Centers last year. Suzuki is also the 1C in Montreal.

TLDR – Betting Summary

1. Trouba/Hertl o1.5 Shots (+140)
2. Kucherov Goal (+140)
3. Timo Meier o3.5 Shots (+105)
4. Kyle Connor o3.5 Shots (+120)
5. Nick Suzuki o2.5 Shots (+125)
