Thursday’s Best NHL Same Game Parlay Bets
(NHL odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
Toronto Maple Leafs at Carolina Hurricanes
- Leg 1: Hurricanes 3-Way Moneyline (-105)
- Leg 2: Martin Necas 1+ Points (-156)
- Leg 3: Sebastian Aho 1+ Assists (-108)
The Maple Leafs are on a great run, winning five straight and seven of their last ten. Two of their most recent losses came to the Jets and Capitals, who are tied for the most points in the league. While they don't have any bad losses, they don't have any impressive wins either, as recently, they've beaten the Flyers, Islanders, Sabres, and Bruins.
They have been balanced and play well on both sides of the ice. They are in the top 13 in goals allowed and scored, and their recent schedule has helped that.
Given how deep of a lineup the Hurricanes are, this will be a challenge. Their top line of Jack Roslovic, Sebastian Aho, and Seth Jarvis is tough to stop. However, it's the next line with Andrei Svechnikov, Jordan Staal, and Martin Necas is one of the best in the league as they lead all other line combinations with 5.88 expected goals per 60, even the Jordan Martinook, Staal, and Jarvis line has been great with a 70.6% expected goal percentage, which is sixth.
We're seeing the Leafs lose to some excellent teams, and the Canes are part of that top tier in the league.

Edmonton Oilers at Pittsburgh Penguins
- Leg 1: Oilers 3-Way Moneyline (-130)
- Leg 2: Oilers Over 3.5 Goals (-126)
- Leg 3: Leon Draisaitl 3+ Shots On Goal (-152)
The Penguins cannot get any momentum going this season. A few weeks ago, things started to look better with the return of Tristan Jarry, but they've earned just one point in their last three and are 0-3-1 in a four-game span. With two of those losses coming to the Panthers and Hurricanes, it's showing they are not a top-tier team, but they have also had bad losses to the Red Wings and Blue Jackets.
The Oilers were going through their problems, but they are looking like the potential Stanley Cup champions again. They almost copied their terrible start from last year; it wasn’t as bad when they were 2-9-1 and fired their coach, but it was unexpected. Just like then, they turned it around.
They got hot, and now they are 15-3-1 and scoring an astounding 3.89 goals per game. Although most of their best players struggled at the start of the season, we’re seeing them collectively get better.
