The Bets of the Day are brought to you by NHL odds site Betway!
Welcome back to another edition of the Betway Bets of the day. All bets are for one unit unless otherwise noted.
Our first bet of the day will be taking Connor McDavid to score and the Oilers to win. These odds sit at +140.
The Oilers are in a great spot coming out of the NHL’s All-Star break and are riding a 7-0-1 stretch heading into Detroit. With them being big favourites on the moneyline, I like going to this wincast.
McDavid’s on a tear this season and is showing no signs of slowing down whatsoever. With 41 goals through 50 games, he has a real shot at breaking the 70 goal mark for the first time since Alexander Mogilny and Teemu Selanne did in 1992-93.

Our second bet of the day will be taking Nathan MacKinnon to take over 4.5 shots on goal. These odds sit at -110.
MacKinnon’s 5.19 shots on goal per game this season are far and away a career high. He’s hit this prop in 20 of 37 games on the year, and has a good matchup against the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight — a team giving up 35.86 shots per hour in all situations over their last five games, the seventh-worst rate in the league.
Record: 102-79 (+16.16u)
