When it comes to a moneyline wager, I’m going with the Hockey Club to defeat the Blues while playing at home. Given the current moneyline odds at -128, I’m placing a wager on the Hockey Club to win outright.

For a puck line pick, we are going with the Hockey Club to win and cover. Look for the Hockey Club to win this one by multiple goals over the Blues.

When considering the over/under line, which is currently at 5.5 goals, we believe that this game will go over that threshold, and we recommend wagering on the over.
