This one has extra juice in Las Vegas, and it is not subtle. Mitch Marner gets his first crack at Toronto since the move, and he’s coming in hot while Vegas keeps stacking wins. The Knights are playing confident hockey right now, and they’re doing it without needing perfect scripts. If they get a lead, they can suffocate you. If they fall behind, they still have enough skill to chase it. Toronto is in a classic schedule spot. They’ve already had a high-emotion overtime win on this trip, then got punched in the mouth the next night. The day off helps, but this is still a tough matchup against a home team on a roll. For betting, it comes down

Boston gets a big night at TD Garden with Zdeno Chara’s jersey going up, and the Bruins have been playing like a team that wants to control every inch of the game state. The homestand has been built on defense and goaltending, and they’ve responded to that ugly loss in Seattle with back-to-back shutouts and a noticeably cleaner penalty profile. Seattle comes in as the road team on the back half of travel, trying to recapture the pace they had during that long point streak. The Kraken can absolutely play with Boston, but they need to be faster with the puck than they were in New Jersey. If this turns into slow hockey, Boston’s forecheck and structure tend to win

The Keystone State rivalry doesn’t need extra juice, but both sides bring urgency anyway. Philadelphia is in a four-game slide and just played Wednesday night, and the defensive leaks have been brutal lately. Pittsburgh is also stuck, but their three-game skid has been tight and low-scoring, the kind of stretch where one or two bounces flips the results. From a betting angle, this comes down to game state. If the Flyers show up with shaky coverage again, Pittsburgh can win without needing a huge offensive night. If the Penguins can’t generate clean looks and the Flyers get even average goaltending, this turns into another one-goal grinder. These are the current moneylines. Puck line and total prices can move fast in

Montreal walks into Buffalo with points in five of the last six, but Tuesday’s collapse in Washington is the kind that can linger. They played two clean periods, then let the game get away late, and that usually shows up in the next one as a team either tightens up or starts forcing plays to “get it back.” Buffalo is the opposite right now. They’re finishing, they’re stacking wins, and they’re playing with the kind of confidence that turns small edges into multi-goal swings. The Sabres are also close enough in the Atlantic race that this isn’t just another home date. It’s a real standings game with two more meetings coming soon. These are the current betting lines provided. Bettors
