We have put together a 4-pick cross-sport parlay that will take you right through Thursday, including action from college basketball, the NHL, and NBA.
One pick is taken from each sport with a second pick from the NHL. A winning ticket gives us a nice payout with odds at +831 with DraftKings Sportsbook — that’s more than 8/1! Let’s break down each of these plays.
NHL: Dallas Stars ML (-200) vs Buffalo Sabres, 7:05 pm ET
While Buffalo is the home team, their backs will be against the wall as Dallas is a very strong team. The Stars’ record may not show that at the moment, but their roster is filled with top players, and a physical lineup who can intimidate any opponent. A game against the Sabres should be a win regardless of their struggles, and if they don’t come away victorious, the team and their fans should be worried. The Stars are coming off a loss to the last-place Montreal Canadiens and should be motivated to bounce back. Take Dallas to get the win on the road.

NHL: Florida Panthers ML (-150) vs Edmonton Oilers, 7:30 pm ET
Not much is going right for the Oilers, as they enter this contest riding a 6-game losing streak. They have won just 2 of their last 14 games. The Panthers haven’t been great on the road (5-5-5), but it’s tough to back the Oilers with the way they have been playing. Spencer Knight got the start for the Panthers in their last game on Tuesday, which means Sergei Bobrovsky is the projected starter in this matchup. On the year, Bobrovksy is 19-3-3 with a solid .921 save percentage and 2.47 GAA. On the other side, Edmonton has question marks in net. However, no matter who is in net for the Oilers, the Panthers have the edge with Bobrovsky. Take Florida.

College Basketball: USC Trojans -2 (-105) vs Colorado Buffaloes, 7:30 pm ET
This game is a test of how much you believe in USC because you are getting them at a great price after a couple of recent losses. Colorado can be a tough place to play, but this team does not have as much talent as it has had in the past. USC is not as good as it was last year, now Evan Mobley in the NBA, but with the Trojans’ defensive principles they can win in any environment and guard Boogie Ellis can take over at times on the offensive end. Take USC.

NBA: New Orleans Pelicans vs New York Knicks – Over 211 points (-110), 7:35 pm ET
The last 7 meetings between these teams would have surpassed tonight’s total by double digits. New Orleans and New York seemingly bring out the best in each other offensively, and it helps that in their last 7 meetings, they are averaging a combined 48.7 free-throw attempts. Take the over in tonight’s matchup.
