Bet Labs’ 64%-winning model is live tonight on the Vancouver Canucks moneyline.
Our Well-Rested Visiting Favorites angle consistently has value against the closing line on:
- NHL road favorites
- With 3-4 days off
- Versus teams that didn’t make the playoffs last year.

Another visiting team fitting the system Tuesday night is the Minnesota Wild.
Minnesota has plenty of rest, last playing three days ago. The Wild have also owned the Habs, cashing five straight in the head-to-head series.
The top price on Wild moneyline Tuesday in Montreal is also at FanDuel (-138).
PRO Pick: Wild ML
Oilers vs. Predators Pick
[gamematchup league=”nhl” awaylogo=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/nhl/100/edm.png” awayname=”Oilers” awayslug=”edmonton-oilers” homelogo=”https://static.sprtactn.co/teamlogos/nhl/100/nsh.png” homename=”Predators” homeslug=”nashville-predators” date=”Tuesday, Oct 17″ time=”8:00pm ET” network=”ESPN+” col1text=”Spread” col2text=”Total” col3text=”Moneyline” col1awaytext=”-1.5″ col1awayline=”+162″ col1hometext=”+1.5″ col1homeline=”-195″ col2awaytext=”6.5″ col2hometext=”6.5″ col2awayline=”-120o / +100u” col2homeline=”-120o / +100u” col3awaytext=”-145″ col3hometext=”+122″ col3awayline=”” col3homeline=”” bookname=”Caesars” bookthumbnaillogo=”https://assets.actionnetwork.com/463646_Caesars.png” bookreviewslug=”caesars”][/gamematchup]
Well-Rested Visiting Favorites is back with a recommended pick on the Oilers moneyline.
Edmonton was outscored 12-4 by the Canucks in its first two games of the season.
However, with three days off, against a Predators team failing to qualify for a postseason berth last season, it’s a prediction on Connor McDavid and the Oilers to pick up their first two points.
Edmonton’s as chalky as -156 to win tonight.
For those looking to tail the 64%-winning model, Caesars has the best odds (-145).

The second active NHL system in Tuesday’s package of predictions is titled At Home, Quality Opponent, Early Season.
The 60%-winning trend is successful betting:
- NHL home favorites
- Against road teams with winning records
- During the first 24 games of the season only
Therefore, it’s a pick on the Golden Knights moneyline (-112) at the time of writing.
