As I predicted just under a month ago, Sidney Crosby has slowed down his scoring pace — significantly. In the time of the last update, the Penguins captain had been scoring on a ridiculous 23.2 percent of his shots but since then he has scored just 3 goals on 28 shots, decreasing his shooting percentage to an even 20 percent. Other men like Alex Ovechkin, Max Pacioretty and Brad Marchand have turned up the heat and have scored their way back in the goal-scoring race.
BetOnline has acknowledged Crosby’s cold streak and transferred him from his -285 odds to the +140 amount where he sits. If you listened to me and place your cash on Mr. Ovechkin’s +550 worth, you would better thank mepersonally. The Great 8 has scored nine times since the turn of the calendar and has set himself back in great position to earn his fifth consecutive Maurice”Rocket” Richard Trophy and his line was adjusted to +205.
Along the Very Same lines as Ovi, we’ve got Brad Marchand. Marchy is among the most polarizing players since the likes of Sean Avery and Todd Bertuzzi roamed the ice but one thing his haters can’t deny — that the guy can frigging score. He’s popped 13 goals since the start of January and is beginning to provide hope to those who followed my advice at the start of the year and place money on the +2500 line for Marchand to lead the league in goals. He now has 23 and it seems like he is just beginning to crank up the intensity knob. A problem with betting on the Bruins winger right now is that he’s one clear slew foot away from a lengthy suspension. He has gotten away with just two iffy ones in the previous two weeks but a third could have him viewing the activity in the press box.
And we have Max Pacioretty of the Montreal Canadiens. Patches had a very bad start to his year, scoring only five goals in his first 24 games, but has since bulged the twine 19 times using two hat-trick performances. Max has had to step up offensively with many of the Habs’ first-choice wingers going down with injury and he has benefited immensely from the re-emergence of Alexander Radulov. Both have combined to contribute a huge chunk of Montreal’s offense and the majority of Patches’ goals this year have come from Rad-Dad helpers.
Also throwing their proverbial hats in the race are rookies Auston Matthews and Patrik Laine, that are neck and neck at the Calder Trophy conversation. They’ve 23 goals apiece and have amazed many with their NHL readiness. Laine is supplying more value at +1600, even though enjoying fewer games than the guy who travelled one spot ahead of him in the 2016 draft which makes zero sense. The Finn has already proved he’s the natural goal scorer of both and is beyond a shadow of a doubt going to be a 50-a-year guy for the rest of his profession.
