Today’s NHL matchups feature exciting contests as teams look to build on their early season momentum. Using insights from the Raymond Report, we’ll break down the key games and highlight the betting angles to watch for Sunday, October 13th, 2024.
The Minnesota Wild come into this matchup following a 5-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken, and they’ve struggled with consistency early in the season. Their C.O.W. sits at 32.5%, and defensively, they’ll need to improve if they want to slow down the Winnipeg Jets' attack. With a 1-1 record, Minnesota will rely on an offense that has been decent but will be tested on the road.
The Winnipeg Jets have started strong, going 2-0 to kick off their season, and they are riding a bullish cycle with a C.O.W. of 57.63%. Their defense has been key, holding opponents to just one goal in their last game. The Jets’ bullish trend and home advantage make them an attractive pick for today’s contest.
The Calgary Flames are coming off a dominant 6-3 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers, moving to 2-0 on the season. With a bullish cycle and a C.O.W. of 40.58%, Calgary’s offense has been firing on all cylinders. They’ve scored 6 goals in each of their first two games, and they’ll look to keep that offensive momentum going against an Oilers team that has struggled defensively.
Edmonton, meanwhile, is off to a disappointing 0-2 start, including a 5-2 loss to Chicago. The Oilers are stuck in a bearish cycle, and while they’re the favorites at home, their early-season struggles raise concerns. Edmonton’s C.O.W. of 55.97% suggests they could bounce back, but they need to address their defensive issues quickly.
Seattle comes into this game after a thrilling 5-4 win against the Minnesota Wild, improving to 1-1 on the season. Their defense, however, has been shaky, and with a neutral cycle (C.O.W. 41.25%), they’ll need to tighten things up against a solid Dallas team. The Kraken’s offense has shown flashes, but their ability to stop the Stars' high-powered attack will be the key to their success.
The Dallas Stars are undefeated at 2-0 and are looking to continue their strong start. Dallas is riding a bullish cycle with a 74.32% C.O.W., and their defense has been impressive, coming off a 3-0 shutout of the New York Islanders. With a well-rounded team, Dallas will look to control the pace and keep their unbeaten run going.
The Anaheim Ducks got their season started with a 2-0 victory over the San Jose Sharks and will look to keep their defense-first approach intact. The Ducks enter this game bullish with a C.O.W. of 41.25%. However, facing the defending Stanley Cup champions in Vegas will be a significant challenge. Anaheim’s defense will be tested by a Golden Knights team that is firing on all cylinders.
The Vegas Golden Knights are off to a 2-0 start and continue to show why they’re the reigning champions. Vegas has hit the over in both games and comes into this matchup bullish with a 57.63% C.O.W. Their offense has been unstoppable, and they’ll look to overwhelm the Ducks with their speed and scoring ability.
