The NHL regular season continues this week, with some of the top teams now beginning to flex their muscles, including the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers, who are back on top of their division.
While there are definitely some teams who look like cup contenders already, we do have to step back for a moment and remember that the season is long, and that we are still not even at the midway point of proceedings.
NHL Must Bet Games in Week 10 Analysis
There is plenty of time for fortunes to rise and fall, so I would not be crowning a champion at this stage of the season.
As we do every Monday at this time, we are taking it one week at a time, which means looking ahead to the next few days to pick out the best games on the schedule, so let’s get to it.
^Toronto Maple Leafs at New Jersey Devils
Tuesday, December 10, 2024, 6:00 PM | ESPN+, hulu
Both of these teams ended last week with a loss, so both will be looking to get back to winning ways at the start of the new week. The Maple Leafs have actually now lost 2 in a row, but they are still 7-3-0 in their last 10 games, so this does feel like a minor blip.
They are also just 2 points back of the Panthers in the Atlantic Division. The Devils are 6-4-0 in their last 10 games, and while they are just 2 points out of the top spot in the Metropolitan Division, they have played 3 games more than the division leading Capitals. The Leafs won 4-2 in an earlier meeting with the Devils this season.
^New York Rangers at Buffalo Sabres
Wednesday, December 11, 2024, 6:00 PM | TNT, truTV, Max
It’s a quiet night in the NHL on Wednesday, with just 2 games on the schedule, but this is a matchup that I like the look of. The Rangers started this season as one of the teams considered likely to make a deep run in the postseason, but they are having their struggles right now, going just 3-7-0 in their last 10 games, which has them down in 4th in the Metropolitan Division.
The Sabres are in worse shape, closing out last week on a 6-game losing skid. I think it’s fair to suggest that both teams need a positive result here.
^Vegas Golden Knights at Winnipeg Jets
Thursday, December 12, 2024, 7:00 PM | ESPN+
We have two of the best teams in the Western Conference squaring off in what is a must-watch game. The Golden Knights come into the new week on a 3-game win streak that has them 4 points clear at the top of the Pacific Division. They are an impressive 7-2-1 in their last 10 games and have gone 7-4-3 on the road this season.
The Jets were on fire to start the season, but they have cooled off recently, going just 4-6-0 in their last 10 outings. You still feel as though they could break out again at any moment.
^Boston Bruins at Vancouver Canucks
Saturday, December 14, 2024, 9:00 PM | ESPN+
While the Panthers might have the lead in the Atlantic Division, things are incredibly tight. The Boston Bruins are down in 3rd, but after winning 4 straight games, they are now just 3 points out of the lead.
They have been up and down on the road, though, going 6-5-1 away from home. The Canucks ended last week with a loss to fall to 5-4-1 over their last 10 games, which has seen them lose some ground in the Pacific Division. They have not been good at home, going just 4-6-3 to this point.
