Frank's NHL Dice Roll-2/5

  

The picks went 1-1 from my last dice roll.
Season record 4-3, +1.45 units.
Let's look at who I like to continue the winning streak from tonight's 5 game NHL slate:
(all lines shown are from DraftKings Sportsbook)

San Jose/Anaheim 1st Period U 1.5 goals (-124). Play 1.24 units to win 1 unit.

The Sharks have scored 20 goals in eight games this season. If this sounds dismal, it is. Not to be outdone, the Ducks have only scored 19 goals in 11 games. These two teams rank 29th and 30th in the league for number of goals scored. I don't see this trend changing much tonight because both of these teams rank mid-pack in the NHL for goals given up. Also, both teams have been off for a few days and will have their top goalie and defensive units rested. Since almost 60% of all games played this season have resulted in a 1st period under, I'm on board with either a scoreless or a 1-0 score after one period in this game tonight.

Best of luck and enjoy the NHL schedule today.
