NHL Parlay Picks, Odds and NHL Best Bets for Thursday 11/09

⭐ Vancouver Canucks Money Line (-118)

This Thursday, the Vancouver Canucks, surprising standouts of the season with a 9-2-1 record, bring their top-scoring offense to face the Ottawa Senators' third-ranked goal-per-game team. 

Vancouver, on a hot streak with seven wins in eight games and four consecutive victories, showcases a robust offense-defense mix. 

Despite a strong start, Ottawa (5-6) has slipped, losing five of their last seven, including a recent defeat to Toronto. 

They're in a challenging three-game stretch, with the Canucks being their second in as many days. Defensively, Vancouver ranks third in the NHL, allowing just 2.17 goals per game, whereas Ottawa stands 23rd, with 3.46 goals against per game. 

Canucks' goalie Thatcher Demko boasts a 94.8% save percentage, reinforcing their solid defense which could be key in deciding the first leg of this NHL Parlay.

⭐ NHL Best Bets: Vancouver Canucks Money Line (-118)

⭐ UNDER 6.5 Points (-120)

Arizona, with an inconsistent season so far, seeks to build on their recent 4-3 victory against the Seattle Kraken. 

Although victorious against lower-tier teams, the Coyotes have struggled with a tough schedule, suffering losses to the Kings, Ducks, and Jets.

Meanwhile, the Blues, marred by an erratic offense, are finding solace in a surprisingly solid defense. 

Despite commendable wins over Pittsburgh, Calgary, and New Jersey, St. Louis is grappling with an offense that ranks third-worst in the league, averaging just 2.36 goals per game, a reflection of their lack of elite offensive firepower.

Arizona, which has shown modest improvements on both ends of the ice, is markedly better than last season, indicating progress in their ongoing team rebuild but points will rove had to come by here.

⭐ NHL Best Bets: UNDER 6.5 Points (-120)

⭐ Los Angeles Kings -1.5 (+190)

In a prime East vs. West showdown, the Pittsburgh Penguins (5-6), aiming to overcome their shaky season start, visit the surging Los Angeles Kings (8-2-2) in the night's finale. 

The Kings, fresh from a commanding 4-1 victory against the Vegas Golden Knights, are positioning themselves as Western Conference contenders.

Despite boasting a roster rich with talent, Pittsburgh's season has been disappointing, with only two wins in their first eight games. 

However, they've found some form with a two-game streak, highlighted by a 2-0 shutout against Anaheim.

The Kings, in the thick of a competitive Pacific Division, are riding high with six wins in their last seven, including their recent triumph over Vegas. 

With an offense averaging 4.25 goals per game, second only in the league, they present a formidable challenge to Pittsburgh's defense, which is tied for eighth in the league, conceding an average of 2.82 goals.

⭐ NHL Best Bets: Los Angeles Kings -1.5 (+190)
