Jets vs. Flyers Preview
The "Well Rested Visiting Faves" system in NHL moneyline betting focuses on the advantage of strong road favorites facing weaker non-playoff-caliber opponents with several days of rest.
The premise is simple: Rest gives these favorites time to reset physically and prepare strategically while still maintaining the higher quality edge that comes with being favored in the first place. Facing an opponent that failed to reach the postseason in the prior year adds another layer, as these teams often lack consistency or resilience over the long season.
Playing on the road removes distractions and sharpens focus, and when a superior team has three or four days off, they are less likely to suffer from travel fatigue. That combination of rest, opponent weakness, and the role of the favorite has proven to deliver profitable long-term results.
Jets vs. Flyers Prediction
Overall, this system is 782-457-0 (63%) and has generated a 7% ROI. It's also off to a strong start this season, cashing four of five picks (80%) for a 30% ROI.
