Daily NHL Betting Guide – 02/23/23

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.

Anaheim Ducks (@ WSH) ML +270

I’ve never seen anything like this. I didn’t post the betting guide on Wednesday because the model was in-line with the sportsbooks, and did not see any value on the board. That’s normal for a three-game slate, but no bets on a 10-game slate!? Unheard of. The one lean that the model has, which has gotten stronger in the last hour, is Anaheim @ Washington. The Capitals will get Alex Ovechkin (personal) back tonight but will be without Anthony Mantha (injured reserve), Dmitry Orlov and Garnet Hathaway, who was scratched for trade-related reasons. It’s not fully there, so feel free to pass because it’s admittedly a bit thin. However, I couldn’t go two full days with NO BETS! Half a unit at most.

0.5 Unit Bet: ANA ML +270
