It's another Wednesday in the NHL and sadly its just a 3-game slate after yesterday's big night. Today represents an important strategy though as we are here to place smart and restrained wagers and we don't chase lines or matchups we exploit the select few. I know many want to have action just to have action but that's a dangerous way to gamble and something I will warn you against. With that advice out there, I only have one wager to put out tonight with only 3 games and its a game total in a west coast matchup! Good luck to everyone in the NHL tonight and see everyone back here tomorrow.

NHL Best Bets for November 8

Los Angeles Kings at Vegas Golden Knights

It may just be a 3 game slate tonight in the NHL but boy did they give us a good one to end the night! The Kings and Golden Knights have been two of the most exciting teams in the NHL so far this season with high flying offenses. The Kings more so have scored 4.27 goals per game to this point which is the 2nd highest average in the NHL while Vegas is scoring 3.77 goals per game and is just outside the top 5. I don't think much changes tonight as each team is going over the game total in 14 of 24 games this season. This makes me wonder why the total is also just 6 goals when projecting place the game closer to 6.5 but hey we will take the line given. The two goalies in Cam Talbot and Adin Hill have had great seasons but with the offensive talent this game should push over. 

Pick: Kings & Golden Knights Over 6 Goals (-120 on BetMGM)
