EPISODE RECAP: Leave it to Cam Stewart of The Hockey Betting Podcast to predict when an NHL trend will turn around. The New York Islanders' special teams have looked deader than a Big Apple lockdown, but Cam cashed a quick underdog pick on Thursday as the Isles roared to a 7-2 win over Boston, scoring shorthanded during a five-goal fiesta in the final 14:19. Stewart's specials on plus-payoff moneylines didn't stop there, thanks to the Detroit Red Wings answering prayers with a 5-2 upset of Nashville on the same night. Brian's in-depth take on the Blues' road-trip psychology bore fruit at the betting counter on Saturday, when St. Louis defenceman Marco Scandella lived up to the praise he’s received on The Hockey Betting Podcast by overcoming injury to score two watershed goals, helping the St. Louis Blues defeat San Jose 7-6. Finally, as Cam and Brian laid out days in advance, Anaheim and Vegas stayed safely under the goal total at Honda Center despite William Karlsson's winning tally for the Golden Knights in OT. What do you take Brian and Cam for, a couple of loons who sing "You Can't Do That On Television" on the air? OH, wait… nevermind. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast.

ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Hair-raising weekday upsets have the guys yanking out their hair and not very gingerly on this February 25, 2021 episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast with Brian Blessing and Cam Stewart. No-name NHL goaltenders are playing like Ken Dryden and match-up favourites are losing the plot. But the angles are still flying fast from Brian and Cam, even as the Flyers get a breath of low-atmosphere oxygen other clubs appear to be missing. Has the National Hockey League gotten slower and defence-oriented with the drag of COVID-19 and a furious schedule? If so, it's a clue to betting the O/U, especially in two and three-game series. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast for all of Brian and Cam’s NHL betting strategies, predictions and free NHL picks.
