THE EDGE REPORT by AndActionBTB | November 11, 2026 NHL Results
Tampa Bay delivered the fireworks. Nashville delivered the road upset. Edmonton delivered a win that still left puck-line backers empty-handed.
Wednesday’s six-game NHL slate finished with favorites going 4–2 and unders going 4–2. Nikita Kucherov supplied the offensive headline, while Nashville extended its winning streak to six by ending Anaheim’s five-game run.
Lightning 8, Sabres 3: Kucherov Slams the Door
Buffalo turned a four-goal deficit into a one-goal game. Then Kucherov took over.
The Lightning star scored a natural hat trick in the third period, turning a tightening contest into an 8–3 Tampa Bay victory. Brandon Hagel added two goals as the Lightning overwhelmed Buffalo late.
The 11-goal finish was the night’s highest total. Buffalo’s rally also made Tampa Bay’s immediate response more revealing than the five-goal final margin.
Predators 4, Ducks 2: Nashville Wins the Streak Showdown
Two teams entered with five consecutive victories. Nashville left with six.
The Predators beat Anaheim 4–2 as a road underdog. Cutter Gauthier extended his goal streak to seven games, but Anaheim’s winning run ended.
Nashville was playing the second half of a back-to-back after winning in Los Angeles the previous night. The Predators completed the Southern California sweep despite the quick turnaround, rewarding moneyline backers while the six combined goals stayed under 6.5.
Oilers 3, Flyers 2 OT: The Win Came Without the Margin
Edmonton survived Philadelphia. It never established the separation that puck-line bettors needed.
Zach Hyman scored both Oilers goals in regulation, and Evan Bouchard finished the game 47 seconds into overtime. Connor McDavid assisted on Hyman’s second goal to extend his season-opening point streak to 20 games.
Philadelphia made Edmonton work. The Flyers outshot the Oilers 13–6 in the first period and 15–7 in the second, then forced overtime after falling behind 2–0.
Edmonton moneyline tickets cashed, Philadelphia +1.5 held up, and the game stayed under 6. The favorite collected the extra point in the standings without producing a convincing regulation performance.
Golden Knights 5, Mammoth 3: Vegas Answers the Push
Vegas built a 4–1 lead, watched Utah close within one, then restored its cushion.
Ivan Barbashev scored twice during the second period. Victor Olofsson added a goal and two assists, while Mitch Marner collected three assists as the Golden Knights earned their fourth consecutive victory.
After Utah cut the deficit to 4–3 in the third, Brett Howden answered 1:12 later. His response denied Utah a sustained push for the equalizer and preserved Vegas’s two-goal winning margin.
Rangers 3, Flames 1: Zibanejad Supplies the Finish
Mika Zibanejad scored twice and Joonas Korpisalo made 29 saves as the Rangers bounced back from their loss in Edmonton. Alexis Lafrenière contributed two assists.
Zibanejad ended a seven-game goal drought while extending his point streak to four games. New York received the finishing touch it needed and enough goaltending to protect the result.
Penguins 3, Sharks 2 SO: A Dog Win With Warning Signs
Pittsburgh surrendered a two-goal third-period lead before Kindel’s shootout winner. Murashov stopped 34 shots; Celebrini reached 200 career points.
The shot count was nearly even, 36–35 San Jose. Sidney Crosby generated seven shots without scoring; Erik Karlsson added five.
Pittsburgh’s underdog win came with a lead-protection problem worth watching. For the next matchup, the starting goalie and price deserve more weight than the shootout result alone. In player markets, Crosby’s shot volume offers a different angle from his scoreless night: separate opportunities generated from goals converted.
The Betting Board
Matchup | Final | Winning side | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
Tampa Bay at Buffalo | TB 8–3 | Favorite | Over 6.5 |
Nashville at Anaheim | NSH 4–2 | Underdog | Under 6.5 |
Philadelphia at Edmonton | EDM 3–2 OT | Favorite | Under 6 |
Utah at Vegas | VGK 5–3 | Favorite | Over 6.5 |
Rangers at Calgary | NYR 3–1 | Favorite | Under 5.5 |
Pittsburgh at San Jose | PIT 3–2 SO | Underdog | Under 6.5 |
Nashville’s next price is worth watching after six straight wins. Edmonton’s narrow escape puts the focus back on its ability to create separation, while Gauthier’s scoring streak keeps him relevant in goal markets. The next opportunity depends on how much those performances change the price.
