Top NHL Betting Games of the Week (Jan 2-8)

On Monday, the Winter Classic will be played at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. What a game this should be, as it features two big rivals. The St. Louis Blues are at home against the Chicago Blackhawks. Two of the top teams in the Western Conference over the last couple seasons. The Blackhawks are leading the division now, but St. Louis is going to be a tough team to beat come postseason time. Look for the home crowd advantage of St. Louis to play the biggest factor in this game. Take the St. Louis Blues -125 over the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday. On Tuesday, the Toronto Maple Leafs will take on the Washington Capitals. The Maple Leafs are 17-12- 7 on the season, which is 5th in the Atlantic Division. The Maple Leafs are led by a young group, including Auston Matthews. Look for Frederik Andersen to be between the pipes for the Maple Leafs. On the other side, the Washington Capitals are 22-9- 5 on the season. They are led by Braden Holtby, and have a few top notch goal scorers. The veteran crew here is the Washington Capitals. They should win this game at home. On Wednesday, the Montreal Canadiens will take on the Dallas Stars. Montreal is 22-9- 6 on the season, which anchors the Atlantic Division. Dallas is 16-5- 7, trailing Chicago, Minnesota and St. Louis in the Central Division. Antii Niemi is allowing 3 goals per game for the Stars, who have not quite found their offensive flow this season. Montreal started hot, and has been status quo recently. The home ice advantage is another big play here. Bet the Dallas Stars over the Montreal Canadiens. On Thursday, the Minnesota Wild are one of the hottest hockey teams in all of the league. Minnesota is coming off their loss to Columbus, but still sit with a 23-9- 4 record. Their 50 points is second in the Western Conference. For San Jose, they are leading the Pacific Division.
