In my weekly Covers.com article I look at news from around the NHL and how it affects bettors. Here is an excerpt:
Preddy good
The Preds have won six in a row and are in the middle of a 10-2-0 run that includes wins over San Jose, Chicago, Detroit and New Jersey,
Nashville ranks near the bottom of the league in power-play at 15.4 percent. But as John Glennon of the Tennessean points out, the Preds are 11-0 when scoring a power-play goal.
“I look at special teams as maybe 30 percent of the game’s outcome. Most teams only average three or four goals per game, so if you’re getting one of them from special teams, that’s about 30 percent,” said head Coach Barry Trotz.
Nashville is averaging 2.27 goals per game, so a power-play goal would actually account for 44 percent of its scoring.
