Looking for a little extra action to spice up tonight's packed sports schedule? A new DraftKings promotion offers a perfect opportunity, giving new users a chance to turn a small wager into a major bonus. If your first $5 bet wins, you'll get $300 in bonus bets to use on future action.

Thursday's slate is loaded with compelling matchups. In the NHL, the Colorado Avalanche, arguably the best team in hockey, take the ice one final time before the postseason against the Seattle Kraken. Meanwhile, MLB features a red-hot San Diego Padres squad aiming for an eighth straight win against Luis Castillo and the Mariners, plus an interleague clash between the Astros and Rockies that promises plenty of offense.

According to the SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, there's value on the board tonight. The model, which was profitable on top-rated MLB picks last season, is backing the Avalanche to handle business against the Kraken. For the diamond, it likes the Padres to continue their winning ways and is projecting Over 8.5 runs in the Astros-Rockies game in hitter-friendly Coors Field.

Combining these three picks into a parlay could yield a significant payout. More importantly, placing that first $5 qualifying bet on any of these games—or another of your choice—unlocks the $300 bonus bet offer if it wins, giving you more fuel for the weekend's games. It's a low-risk way to add another layer of excitement to a fantastic night of baseball and hockey.
