Boston is riding a three-game winning streak overall and also owns a six-game series winning streak dating back to 2017
Flames at Hurricanes | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Hurricanes -135 Favorites
The Hurricanes ended a season-high three-game skid with a 4-0 rout of the Blackhawks on Saturday as -200 home favorites, and now they welcome the Flames to PNC Arena. Carolina was outscored 13-7 during its losing streak, with the OVER cashing each time. Calgary has alternated wins and losses in its last six games and is coming off a 2-1 loss at Winnipeg on Saturday as a -135 road favorite. The UNDER has cashed in the team’s last four road games.
Capitals at Maple Leafs | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Maple Leafs -125 Favorites
The Capitals wrap up a five-game road trip against the Maple Leafs in a battle between two of the Eastern Conference’s best teams. Washington is 3-1 on the trip so far following a 6-5 shootout victory at Vancouver on Friday as a -105 underdog as the OVER cashed for the seventh straight time. Toronto has won three of four at home but has lost three of four overall.
Lightning at Rangers | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Lightning -180 Favorites
Tampa Bay hits the road for a four-game trip after a disappointing homestand at 1-2, with losses to a pair of top Western Conference contenders in Colorado and Nashville. The Lightning have won three of their last four road games though and own a five-game series winning streak against the Rangers, who have lost six of their last seven games overall.
Oilers at Red Wings | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Oilers -135 Favorites
The Red Wings hope to break a season-high eight-game losing streak when they host the Oilers. Detroit fell 5-4 to St. Louis in overtime on Sunday as a +120 home underdog after losing six of its previous seven by two goals or more in regulation time. Edmonton has also cooled off a bit following a hot start, going 3-3-1 in its last seven after winning its first five this year.
Wild at Stars | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Stars -155 Favorites
Two of the worst teams in the West meet in Dallas when the Stars host the Wild. Minnesota has actually won three of four games following a 1-6 start while Dallas has also won three of four after going 1-7-1 in its first nine. However, the Stars had higher expectations this season, and they have won the past four meetings with the Wild, with the UNDER going 3-0-1.
Jets at Ducks | OddsShark Matchup Report
Opening NHL Odds: Ducks -120 Favorites
The Jets have won two of their last three following a three-game losing streak, and the UNDER is on a 4-0 run. The Ducks have dropped four of their previous five with the OVER on a 6-2 run in their past eight. But Anaheim’s lone win during that stretch was a surprising 5-2 victory at Colorado on Saturday as a +135 underdog before losing to Vegas on Sunday by an identical score as a +210 dog to end a tough back-to-back situation and four-game road trip.
Also on today’s schedule: Blackhawks at Predators.
