BEST BET: Look For Red Wings To Continue Five-Game Run With One Specific Trend
LAS VEGAS — If you read my betting column on Saturday, detailing three specific teams that are carrying value into February, presuming they’d bring underdog prices into games, you would have cashed in with all three, as trhe Senators, Islanders and Red Wings all won on Saturday.
Two are back on the ice tonight, and we’re going to take a look at one of those games for a Sunday Best Bet. As the Islanders head to Sunrise for a date with the defending Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers, I want to talk about the Red Wings visiting the Vancouver Canucks.
Let’s do a deep dive into this one:
WHY DETROIT: As I said in yesterday’s article, the Wings have been one of the hottest teams and now ride a five-game win streak into Vancouver after a 3-1 victory in Calgary. During the five-game stretch, the Wings have outscored the competition by a combined final of 17-7. They’ve now allowed two or fewer goals in six straight games.
WHY VANCOUVER: The Canucks were playing well, having won three straight, including a 2-1 victory over league-leading Washington on Jan. 25. Then they ran into Dallas and dropped a 5-3 decision on Friday to close a three-game homestand. Back home, the Canucks could benefit off the Wings on the second of back-to-back nights.
All betting lines are from Bet365 and are subject to change. Hockey is a difficult sport to predict so please gamble responsibly.
THE PICK: CANUCKS -1.5 +165 — Detroit is ripe for a letdown, and it won’t take away for how well it’s been playing. But if you look at how the Wings have performed on the second night of back-to-backs, you can see why it might be advantageous to play the puck line. This will make the sixth time of such an occasion, and Detroit is 0-5 the first five times. They’ve lost four of those games by at least two goals, and collectively have been outscored by a combined final of 20-5 in those games. Play Vancouver on the puck line.
(Season Record: 14-21-1, Net: -920$, based on 100$ units)
The Detroit Red Wings have been on fire lately, winning their last five games in a row. While some may think this streak is just a fluke, there is one specific trend that suggests they may be able to keep it going.The Red Wings have been dominating on the power play during this five-game run, converting on nearly 30% of their opportunities with the man advantage. This has been a key factor in their recent success, as they have been able to capitalize on their opponents’ mistakes and turn them into goals.
With their power play clicking on all cylinders, the Red Wings look poised to continue their winning ways. Look for them to keep this trend going in their upcoming games and potentially extend their winning streak even further.
So, if you’re looking to place a bet on the NHL, consider putting your money on the Detroit Red Wings to continue their five-game run with their strong power play performance. It could just pay off big time.

Scoot Henderson, Trail Blazers beat Bulls to end five-game skid
PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Scoot Henderson had 25 points and the Portland Trail Blazers snapped five-game losing streak with a 113-102 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Sunday night.
Zach LaVine had 27 points for the Bulls. They have lost five straight.
Portland stretched its lead to 97-82 on Shaedon Sharpe‘s 3-pointer with 7:36 left. Patrick Williams‘ dunk got the Bulls within single digits at 110-102 with 1:26 left. Deni Avdija answered with a layup for Portland to end the threat.
Sharpe came off the bench for the Blazers after coach Chauncey Billups told him his defense needed to improve to return to a starting role. Sharpe finished with 23 points.
The Bulls led by as 15 points in the first half. Henderson made back-to-back 3-pointers that got the Blazers to 43-42.
Portland tied it at 45 on Jerami Grant‘s 3 and it was even at 53 going into the break.
Portland, playing the second of a back-to back, pulled ahead early in the second half, leading by as much as 65-57 on Avdija’s 3-pointer. Ayo Dosunmu made a 3 for the Bulls that tied it at 75 but Chicago wasn’t able to pull in front.
Avdija finished with 20 points and 12 rebounds.
Takeaways
Bulls: Lonzo Ball (right thigh contusion/injury management), Jevon Carter (illness) and Chris Duarte (personal reasons) were unavailable for the Bulls.
Trail Blazers: Anfernee Simons did not play for the Blazers because of a right elbow strain. But both Avdija (right ankle) and Deandre Ayton (lower back) were available.
Key moment
Henderson pulled down a defensive rebound and sprinted downcourt under pressure before passing it off to Sharpe for the layup, giving the Blazers an 87-77 lead going into the final quarter.
Key stat
Portland ended up a disappointing 1-4 on its homestand.
Up next
The Bulls are at the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night. The Trail Blazers are at Miami on Tuesday night.

The Portland Trail Blazers came out on top against the Chicago Bulls with a 112-107 victory, snapping their five-game losing streak.Rookie guard Scoot Henderson stole the show with a standout performance, scoring a career-high 30 points and dishing out 8 assists. His energy and tenacity on both ends of the court were instrumental in securing the win for the Blazers.
Despite a strong effort from the Bulls, led by Zach LaVine’s 25 points, they were unable to overcome Portland’s dominant performance. The Blazers’ defense was particularly impressive, holding the Bulls to just 40% shooting from the field.
This win comes as a much-needed morale boost for the Trail Blazers, who have been struggling in recent games. With Scoot Henderson leading the charge, the team will be looking to build on this momentum and turn their season around.

Things move fast in the NBA.
Less than 24 hours after a record-setting 155-point performance against the Toronto Raptors, the Memphis Grizzlies are back in action on Friday night against the New Orleans Pelicans.
This matchup is the first of fives games on a West coast road trip.
The Pelicans (5-26) have the worst record in the Western Conference. Injuries to All-Stars Brandon Ingram and Zion Williamson have limited the team after a season of high expectations. ‘
Things are going in the other direction for Memphis (21-10). The Grizzlies have been one of the NBA’s best teams due to a deep team that has the league’s highest scoring bench unit.
That depth will be tested again on Friday. Santi Aldama, who left Thursday’s game in the first quarter, is out against New Orleans. He has been one of the NBA’s top reserves and a Sixth Man of the Year candidate.
Marcus Smart also remains out due to a right index finger injury. Grizzlies center Jay Huff is listed as questionable due to an ankle injury. His potential return could help the frontcourt depth without Aldama.
This is the second meeting between the Grizzlies and Pelicans this season. Memphis won the first meeting 120-109 in November.
