NHL public betting, line movement for August 26
Patrick Everson

With a win in Wednesday night's Game 3, the Stars can put the Avalanche on the brink of elimination. Dallas took Games 1 and 2, but Colorado is still a -140 favorite at Caesars for Game 3.

NHL betting odds are up and getting attention for Wednesday’s trio of conference semifinal games. The Colorado Avalanche look to begin digging their way out against the Dallas Stars in a so-far surprising NHL playoffs series, and the Tampa Bay Lightning and Boston Bruins get no rest, going on back-to-back days.

Caesars sportsbooks provided insights on NHL opening lines and early line movement, sharp money and public betting for Wednesday’s contests. Covers will update this action report with NHL sharp picks vs. public bets and line movement throughout the day.

NHL odds movement

Dallas piled up five goals in each of the first two games against Colorado, with the Stars claiming a 5-2 win Monday to take a 2-0 lead in the best-of-7 series. However, the Avalanche are again favored, opening -140 at Caesars books, with the Stars +125 for a 10:30 p.m. ET Game 3.

The Lightning bounced back from a Game 1 loss to edge Boston 4-3 in overtime in Tuesday’s Game 2. With these two teams on a short turnaround for an 8 p.m. ET faceoff, the line was not yet posted by late Tuesday night.

In the 3 p.m. ET Wednesday opener, Caesars opened the New York Islanders -110 and the Philadelphia Flyers -105, and there was no movement for Game 2 by late Tuesday night. The Islanders rolled in Game 1, 4-0.

NHL public betting

The Consensus indicates bettors are getting more confident in the Stars, although the Avalanche still have the edge, landing 55 percent of early picks. Likewise, it’s two-way in Islanders-Flyers, with short favorite New York drawing 55 percent of early Consensus picks.

PITTSBURGH PIRATES @ CHICAGO WHITE SOX PICKS, EXPERT PREDICTIONS & BETTING TIPS

CHI White Sox Win -1.5 Run Line
-115

Under 9.0 Game Totals
-110

Run Line Pick
The world watched Lucas Giolito throw a no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night, and the same Pirates lineup returns to Guaranteed Rate Field just hours later to face former Cy Young winner Dallas Keuchel. In his first year on the South Side of Chicago, Keuchel has won four out of six starts, pitching to a 2.65 ERA, and has allowed just two home runs. The Pirates’ offense ranks near or at the bottom of the National League in nearly every offensive category, and they looked confused from start to finish on Tuesday, striking out 13 times and reaching base just once on a walk. Chicago, now six games above .500, has serious playoff aspirations and will turn to Keuchel, a veteran of four playoff campaigns and a World Series Champion in 2017. Keuchel knows how to bring his A-game in a playoff race, and should do just that on Wednesday. Look for the White Sox to win by multiple runs as they did in the first game of the series, and take them on the run line.


Over Under Pick
Looking at the Pittsburgh lineup and what they did on Tuesday, let’s just say it would take a lot of guts to go with the over the next day. True, Chicago alone is capable of scoring eight to ten runs on any given day, but facing Trevor Williams, the closest thing the Pirates have to an ace, dampens their chances. Williams’ 1-4 record is more indicative of the lineup behind him than the way he’s pitched; his 3.70 ERA is almost eighty points better than league average. Without a doubt, take the under.
