(29) San Jose Sharks at (30) Calgary Flames
Date/Time:
Play:
Total Over 6.0 (-118)

Rotation #29: NHL Thursday Free Play OVER 6 -115 in Calgary Flames vs San Jose Sharks @ 9 PM ET - The Sharks and Flames are just playing out the string on this season and I don't expect much defense to be on display in the season finale. San Jose has had a very ugly season and now have allowed 15 goals in their last 2 games so it is not like their dialing up D here at the end of campaign. The Flames also are off a disappointing campaign as, unlike the Sharks, they did have real playoff hopes this season but that fell apart late in the season.  Calgary now is wrapping up the season with high-scoring battles when they have faced other teams that also are not making the postseason. The Flames last 5 games against non-playoff teams have averaged 8 goals apiece. The Flames have scored 6 goals in each of their last two games in non-playoff teams. More of the same here and this one should fly over the total. Free Play OVER 6 -115 in Calgary

NHL Predictions Tonight, NHL Betting Picks Today

WagerTalk offers NHL picks on a regular basis - premium NHL picks are offered in great volume every day, but you will also find NHL Picks Free for today and for tonight's NHL games.  NHL handicappers at WagerTalk make sure the picks are timely and the information within is accurate - be it related to injuries, rest days, or even travel conditions. 

NHL Moneyline Expert Picks Free of Charge


Certainly the most common and popular type of NHL bet is simply taking the moneyline.  In other words, you simply select the winner of any NHL game.  If your pick wins, you win your bet.  Simplicity embodied. 

Free Over/Under & Totals NHL Picks

Similar to soccer, where the over/under is almost always 2.5, and occasionally 3.5, NHL games rarely deviate from an over/under of 5.5. goals.  This makes over/under picking pretty straightforward.  It you see an expert NHL pick from Wagertalk that has crunched the stats and sees a goal explosion imminent, no doubt that pick will select the over.  Conversely, a defensive matchup in the making makes it likely that the expert NHL pick will be on the under. 

Winning an NHL over/under bet is easy. You just choose whether or not the teams combined will score more than 5.5. goals or fewer than 5.5 goals.  If you are correct, you win your bet. 

Free Expert Puck Line Predictions

An exciting NHL bet is picking the puck line. This is really just betting against the spread, but hockey gets a cooler name: THE PUCK LINE.  Sounds great, does it not?  For more information on betting the puck line, visit our puck line explanation article.  In short, though, you are simply getting better odds than you would on a moneyline bet, because sportsbook allow you to choose from multiple puck lines, you can bet on a larger puck line for a greater return.   

WagerTalk expert puck line picks are completely free and a common pick type you will see here. 

Free NHL Futures Betting Picks

Don't let the NHL offseason stop you - it doesn't stop our NHL betting experts! You will find NHL futures predictions, along with a compilation of the best sportsbook NHL futures odds out there - to help you maximize your potential return!
