Daily NHL Betting Guide – 01/01/23

Welcome to our Betting Guide brought to you by NHL Betting site Betway!
Getting a little skin in the game can make watching NHL hockey even more exciting.
During the 2022-23 season, Daily Faceoff will help you become an improved bettor thanks to this betting model and our betting tools.
NHL MODEL PICKS
Each day we will look at each game, the Sportsbook Odds (via Betway), and the odds of each team winning based on the model created by Philip Bulsink. Based on those two numbers, we can quickly identify which teams we need to bet on, which teams to avoid and which lines to keep an eye on throughout the day.
You can quickly determine which teams are the best bets by following this simple table:

I will also provide some analysis on the best bets and update this post throughout the day to point out big injury news, lineup changes, and backup goalies starting.
The number to keep an eye on is the “Diff.” which is the percentage difference between the model’s projected Win% and the projected Win% based on Betway odds. To find out how odds turn into percentages, use our Odds Calculator.

Recommended Bets 💰
New York Islanders (@ SEA) ML +104
These are two teams that appear to be headed in opposite directions. The Islanders had a slow start to the season but have been better recently and are currently on a three-game winning streak, allowing just one goal per game. Meanwhile, the Kraken had a great start to the year but have been stumbling as of late, including losing three straight while allowing a combined 16 goals (5.3 GA/gm). In their last 25 games, these two teams are 22nd (NYI) and 23rd (SEA) in xGF%. You get the Islanders as slight road underdogs (+104), but the model views them as -113 favourites.
1 Unit Bet: NYI ML +104
