YTD: 70-88, -40.62 Units
Liking 4 road-dogs...
Kings +140 vs Islanders - 3 Units
Kings playing better hockey than the Isles, IMO...winning 5 of 8 including a close OT loss against the hot Flyers, a respectable showing against the Wings and a win over the Ducks and Canucks. Islanders starting to slide into what will eventually be a non playoff year IMO, losing 5 of 7 with 2 blowout losses in a row. They've also lost 5 straight at home. I'll take a chance with LA here on what seems to be an inflated number reflecting overall record, and not the quality of recent play. Edit: Looks like Dubie gets the start in net for Dipietro...like the play even more!
Habs +105 vs Capitals - 3 Units
Going with the better team as a dog here, hoping for the home-and-home sweep. Caps were outclassed badly by Montreal on Tuesday, who are one of the hottest teams in the league winning 5 of 6 with the last 3 very impressive looking dominant wins. The line for this matchup goes from -180 to + 105...even with a huge Montreal win backing up that Tuesday juice? Home ice doesn't mean that much, IMO...I mean...it's the half-full Washington (insert bank or cellphone company name here) Arena...especially with the Habs being one of the best road teams in the league (if not THE best.
Bruins +184 vs Senators - 3 Units
Nice value here, IMO....Boston is a good little team that absolutely nobody talks about, and shouldn't be getting this kind of number...especially when they can bring much superior goaltending to the table. Bruins have won 5 of 7, and would love to go into Ottawa and get a win. Ottawa a little overrated with this line, IMO....sure they are coming off 2 blowout wins...but that was against the weak Bolts and Isles, and before those games they had lost 5 of 6 against equally weak opponents. ALSO...those wins came on the back of a returning Alfredsson to the lineup, as they seemed lost without him and Heatley....BUT, Alfie is now banged up again, and questionable for Thursday. Way huge value for Boston, IMO. rjp...nice spot for one of your +1.5 goaline plays, IMO. Edit: Alfie confirmed out for tonight AND Saturday.
Also looking at backing Vancouver against TB. Canucks desperate for a win, and this might be a good spot for them to get it...playing a bad TB team coming off two home blowout losses. Canucks actually outplayed Dallas last game, but got shorted in the goaltender battle. Play is currently off the board, pending Luongo joining the team...which was the original plan I believe....
