The Los Angeles Kings travel to meet the Columbus Blue Jackets on Monday at Nationwide Arena. This is a rescheduled game after a blizzard on January 26 caused the original game to be postponed. The Blue Jackets have posted points in 16 of the past 18 games, going 14-2-2. Columbus suffered a 5-4 loss in overtime last time out against the Utah Mammoth, but it is still 3-0-2 in the past 5 games. The Jackets are working on a streak with at least 3 goals in 5 in a row and 11 of the previous 12 outings. These teams met once before this season, with Columbus winning 3-1 at Crypto.com Arena on December 22 as a moderate underdog (+130).

The Kings have really been struggling badly lately, going just 2-6-1 in the past 9 games. On the road, L.A. is 1-2-1 in the previous 4 outings. The Kings have coughed up 3 or more goals in 3 straight and 7 of the past 8 games — conceding 4.2 goals per game in that span. The Over is 4-1-1 in the past 6 outings, too. Despite an Under result in the first meeting in Southern California, let’s go Over in this rare Monday matinee game in Columbus.

Kings vs Blue Jackets prediction: Over 6 (-115) available at time of publishing. Playable to -130.

The Calgary Flames are beginning a 5-game road trip with a matchup against the Washington Capitals. The Flames have no chance of making the playoffs and are now focusing on preparing for next season. Some players are looking to prove they deserve a full-time role in the NHL, while others aim to demonstrate to management why they should remain with the team. Winning is not their primary goal; rather, they want to assess the younger players before making important offseason decisions.

On the other hand, the Capitals have lost 3 consecutive games and need to get back to winning if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive. Currently, they are seven points out of a wildcard spot and cannot afford to lose games against weaker teams. We can expect them to approach this game with urgency and fire a lot of shots on goal. The Flames are averaging just 2.47 goals per game, so once they fall behind, it becomes nearly impossible for them to catch up. The Capitals have the advantage in every statistical category and should be able to secure a victory in regulation.

Flames vs Capitals prediction: Washington 3-Way ML (-120) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.

The New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers meet at Xfinity Mobile Center in Philadelphia for the fourth and final regular-season encounter. The road team has won the past 2, including Philadelphia’s 3-2 win in overtime on Feb. 26 at Madison Square Garden as the Under (6) cashed. New York was awful at home and very good on the road early in the season. The Rangers have tailed off at all venues lately, going just 2-5-2 in the past 9 games and 3-12-3 in the past 18 outings.

The last time these teams met, Sam Carrick had a goal for the Rangers, but he has since been traded to the Buffalo Sabres. Matvei Michkov had a pair of goals for the Flyers, including a powerplay goal in regulation and an even-strength winner in overtime. Philadelphia has had a flare for the dramatic lately, going to overtime or a shootout five times in the past 9 outings, going 4-1-0 in the past 5 games. The Under is also on an 8-1 run, in the event you’re looking for a Same Game Parlay possibility. The Over/Under has split 3-3 in the past 6 games for the Blueshirts, though. Let’s take the Flyers to get the job done on the money line as our best play.

The Utah Mammoth are visiting the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday night. The Blackhawks are on the second half of a back-to-back as they were in Dallas on Sunday to take on the Stars. That game went to overtime, so I expect the Mammoth to have the rest advantage. The Mammoth come into this game riding a 3-game winning streak, and this good play is coming at a good time as they are trying to hang on to one of the wild-card playoff spots in the Western Conference. They should have an easy time shutting down the offense of the Blackhawks, as the Mammoth are the fourth-best defensive team in the league. They average 2.75 goals against per game. The Blackhawks are one of the worst offensive teams — averaging 2.63 goals — and they average the fewest shots on goal per game at 24.5.

With where these 2 teams currently are, I expect the Mammoth to come out with a better performance. They have some elite talent at the top of their lineup — led by Clayton Keller — that outside of Connor Bedard the Blackhawks cannot match. Give me Utah in this one.
