Thursday brings one of the biggest NHL slates of the season.

Nine games are on the betting board and David Kelly loves three of them. Why should you care what David Kelly thinks?

Well, in an industry where 60 percent is considered outstanding, Kelly consistently hits nearly 80 percent of his NHL picks. That's right -- nearly 80 percent! It's almost unheard of.

A Toronto-born hockey analyst with multiple advanced degrees, Kelly specializes in Over/Unders. He nailed 39 out of 50 (78 percent) Over/Under picks in last season's NHL playoffs, and he's still on fire.

Kelly is a scorching 17-5 (77.3 percent) on NHL totals picks this season, setting the stage for Thursday night.

We can tell you Kelly is going Under 6 goals in Edmonton-Chicago.

"Since their blowout win over the Penguins in the season opener, the Blackhawks have struggled to find the net, failing to score more than three goals in their last five," Kelly says. "Edmonton misses Leon Draisaitl -- Connor McDavid hasn't scored since his opening game hat trick against Calgary." 

He's also picking the Over in a game featuring a team on the rise against a team that's proven it can light the lamp. The return of key stars will push their game Over tonight, resulting in a big payday for anyone who goes Over.
