11 NHL games tonight, here are my WINNERS!

By Yttrandefrihet | Hockey Thoughts | 27 Mar 2021



Buffalo Sabres - Boston Bruins

Buffalo, haha! Boston wins!


New York Rangers - Philadelphia Flyers

The Rangers have destroyed the Flyers a couple of times lately. The Flyers have some stuff to work on. I'm not saying they can't do that, but I just have to go against them here. New York Rangers wins!


Columbus Blue Jackets - Detroit Red Wings

The Blue Jackets have started getting some wins lately, and are now in the race for the last playoff spot for real. Detroit can give any team problems, but they are definitely the underdog here. Columbus wins!


Vegas Golden Knights - Colorado Avalanche

The Avs won big in the last game. The game was closer than the score suggests, but I still think that they have the upper hand here. Colorado wins!


Tampa Bay Lightning - Carolina Hurricanes

The Bolts unexpectedly lost against the Stars the other day, breaking Vasilevski's run, which stopped at 12 straight wins. The Bolts rarely lose two in a row though, and the Canes have looked like slowing down lately. Tampa Bay wins!


Edmonton Oilers - Toronto Maple Leafs

The Oilers got schooled the last three times these two met. The Leafs have had a downwards trend since though, and the Oilers the opposite. But I still think the Leafs have the better chance here. Toronto wins!

New York Islanders - Pittsburgh Penguins

This is a tough one to call. Both teams have done really well lately. The Pens have showed that they can beat the Islanders at their own game though, and even though the Islanders have filled in the gaps after the injuries well, I expect the cracks should start to show sooner or later. Pittsburgh wins!


Nashville Predators - Chicago Blackhawks

This is a huge game for both teams. The Preds are chasing for the last playoff spot. The Hawks are holding on to it for dear life. The Predators have trended up lately, but the win for the Blackhawks against the Panthers was very impressive. I feel this one could go either way, but with that last win, I'll go with - Chicago wins!


Florida Panthers - Dallas Stars

The win against the Bolts was really impressive, but I think it was a one-off. The Panthers are the better teams, and they are the top dog here I think. Florida wins!


Winnipeg Jets - Calgary Flames

The Jets continue to beat the Flames. It was close last night, but still, it ended with another win for Winnipeg. This is a back-to-back meeting, and I expect both teams to rest their starters. Rittich and Brossoit in net doesn't fundamentally change anything though, I think. The Flames are still the underdog here. Winnipeg wins!


San Jose Sharks - Arizona Coyotes

The Yotes won last night, and are now withint touching distance of the fourth spot. I think they will go out with desperation. The Sharks will be looking for revenge, but I'll have to make the Coyotes the favourites here. Arizona wins!


In summary, my winners are:

Boston Bruins
New York Rangers
Columbus Blue Jackets
Colorado Avalanche
Tampa Bay Lightning
Toronto Maple Leafs
Pittsburgh Penguins
Chicago Blackhawks
Florida Panthers
Winnipeg Jets
Arizona Coyotes
