Futures

Seattle Kraken under 91.5 (+100), 2*
Lightning under 108.5 (-130), 1*
Blackhawks over 90.5 (-110), 1*
Senators under 77.5 (-110), 1*
Red Wings under 77.5 (-105), 1*
Bruins over 102.5 (-110), 1*

Islanders to Win the Stanley Cup (+1600), 1*
Islanders to Win the East (+900), 1*

I think the Kraken total is a bit high. I like their defense, but they are going to struggle to score. Maybe they have a great record in one goal games, but that's hard to rely on. I think people remember how good Vegas was in year one and are anticipating history repeating itself. I'm a believer in the Kraken in a year or two, just not this year.

I feel like the Islanders are your classic playoff team. Their style of play, the way the roster is constructed, it feels like a team that has a good mix. I didn't take their season point total over because I think they are a team that will thrive most in a series setting. But I certainly like them to make a run. Trotz knows what he's doing and I expect to see the Islanders in the postseason and beyond.

No action for me tonight unfortunately. I don't see anything I love and I'm not going to force a play night one. Good luck to those who do have action.

I have a couple other thoughts on the season. The other team I considered to win the East and the Stanley Cup was the Bruins. I know they moved on from Krecji and Rask. But I think a case can be made they are better overall as a team. I believe putting Coyle on the second line will benefit Taylor Hall. Hall now has two physical players on his line with Coyle and Smith. Teams would try to isolate Hall and push him around and Krecji couldn’t do anything about it. I think Coyle’s possession skills and physical play benefit Hall. They also did a nice job of remaking their bottom two lines with the additions of Nosek, Foligno and Haula. Their goaltending will be just fine with Ullmark and Swayman. The reason I didn’t pull the trigger is their defense. They seem to be a top four defenseman short, particularly on the left side. They may address that problem at the deadline, but I don’t trust their defense as constituted.

Also, if you are betting individual player futures, I think you have to bet McDavid. He is the favorite for the Hart and the Art Ross, but if he stays healthy he will be right in the mix for both.

Canadiens ML (+160), 1*
Oilers/Canucks over 6.5 (-125), 1*

I feel like the Maple Leafs line is too high. I had a similar feeling about Tampa last night, but I didn't like it enough to play on Pitt. I am going to roll with the Canadiens tonight. I almost played the over in this game, I definitely would have if it was 5.5. I considered the Rangers, it just seems like everyone is on them which makes me nervous.

Good luck!

Another frustrating night. I don’t know what was worse. Ottawa scoring three goals in the first period and then not scoring the rest of the game. Or Toronto not scoring on a bad Ottawa team until the third period. It’s early in the season and certainly I will get going. With that being said, I would like to get the first win out of the way ASAP.

Blackhawks ML (+115), 1*
Wild/Ducks over 5.5 (+105), 1*

I like the Blackhawks this season. They are a sneaky playoff team in my opinion. I can't say the same for the Devils, who have a couple pieces I like, but have more work to do in the roster construction department. I'm going to go say a prayer to the gambling gods that I get my first win tonight. GL

I like the Bruins, but the price has gotten big and I don't feel comfortable laying that in their season opener.
