Val’s Big Payday Parlay, pays +984

Calgary Flames -1.5 +175

The Flames host the Kraken tonight in the first game back for both teams since the Xmas break. The Kraken were playing well before the break having won 2 straight games and the break probably came at a bad time for them. The Flames were also playing their best hockey of the season as well having won 3 of their last 4 meetings thanks to the return of J. Markstrom. The Flames have totally dominated the Kraken since they joined the NHL winning 9 of their 10 meetings with several of those wins by multiple goals. I like the same type of result for tonight's game.

Florida Panthers/Tampa Bay Lightning O6.5 -120

We have a battle of Florida when the Panthers visit the Bolts tonight. Both these teams have a propensity for scoring goals in bunches with the level of talent on both rosters. When you can trot out names like Kucherov, Stamkos, Tkachuk and Barkov on a nightly basis goals are easy to come by. Yes both teams have good goalies but sometimes that just doesn't matter with the level of talent on the ice. With both teams well rested, tonight is one of those cases where I like both teams to light up the lamp and get over this number.

Phoenix Suns -2 -105

The Suns look to rebound from their Xmas day no show versus the Mavs when they lost by 14, 128-114 on their home court. I expect better games from K. Durant and D. Booker as neither played particularly well 2 days ago. Plus the Rockets may be without their best defender in D. Brooks as he left yesterday's loss to the Pacers early and never returned. Brooks is the glue of the Rockets D and if he isn't available it will really effect them. The Rockets have won 2 straight versus the Suns but before that the Suns had won 8 straight, I like the Suns in a nice rebound win tonight over the Rockets.
