Jimmy Snuggerud is ending his rookie campaign on a huge high. He's picked up a point in 20 of his past 29 games, averaging more than a point per contest along the way.
My Penguins vs. Blues predictions expect Snuggerud to put together another productive outing against a Pittsburgh team looking toward the playoffs.
Letâs take a closer look at my NHL picks for Tuesday, April 14.
Jimmy Snuggerud has played exceptional hockey alongside Robert Thomas and Dylan Holloway on what has been one of the leagueâs best lines.
That trio has absolutely run over everybody in its path, outscoring opponents 20-5 at 5-on-5 while posting excellent underlying metrics since being assembled.
They also fully correlate on the top power play, allowing their chemistry to flourish in easy offensive situations.
Thatâs an important factor heading into a matchup with the Pittsburgh Penguins, whoâve conceded a power play goal in five of the last six games in which they took at least two penalties.
The St. Louis Bluesâ top line dominates territorially almost nightly, meaning plenty of offensive zone time for Holloway to put his shot to use.
He's cleared 2.5 shots in 10 of his past 14 games and has averaged a healthy 6.4 attempts along the way. He should get his share of looks against a Penguins team with nothing to play for.
Weâll round out the parlay with a bet on the Blues to take care of business in their home finale. They rank eighth in points percentage over their final 25 games and should handle a Penguins team whose biggest priority is getting through this game healthy.
The Blues have hit the moneyline in 13 of their last 20 games (+8.60 Units / 37% ROI). Find more NHL betting trends for Penguins vs. Blues.
