NHL YTD: 25-24, -4.25

Slowly working my way back after a brutal first week... :thumbs:

****ty card tonight, IMO...just one small total play...


Caps/Coyotes OVER 5.5 -119
Caps a big over team, and were 5-0 with Overs before a weird under last time out in Calgary where each team had a million PPs, but couldn't convert. Washington likely bounces back with a few goals tonight. Ovechkin still hasn't had his breakout game this year, and loves playing against Gretzky. Phoenix also has some scoring talent up front, and has been getting and giving up 30+ shots a night. In goal, Theodore has been off to a slow start in Washington (is there a streakier goalie in the league?), and in Phoenix, backup Tellqvist gets his first start of the year against a team capable of lighting it up.

Sabres/Wild Under 5.5 -133
Going to ride two insanely hot goaltenders is Miller and Backstrom (both probable). These guys are on fire, and if it wasn't for their offences showing up big from time to time, the unders would be hitting every game. Now facing each other, and with Minny missing some key offensive weapons...this smells like a 2-1 game either way. Also...we have exceptional PK on both sides in this matchup, always a good thing when playing an under...Minny has the best PK so far this year, and the Sabres are 4th best.

Oilers +140 vs Avs
Don't usually play teams on road b2b's, but I don't think Peter Budaj should be laying this kind of number to a team with some skill up front...Garon is back in tonight for the Oil, and has been stellar...value 1/2 unit play...

GL jml, really like that wild under just dont see how they are going to score against good teams with the line up the way it is. Lemaire should have them ugly this game up to a 2-1 type game.

Any thoughts on nashville tonight, Im thinking the preds get it done in their yard tonight but havent pulled the trigger.

Thanks flm...not playing it, but yeah...I like the Preds to win that one at home. They haven't played since Saturday though...kinda weird, and their goaltending has been awful...GL if you play it!


Islanders +105 vs Stars
Had to do it...the way the Stars have been playing recently, and Turco's struggles, and the road b2b...how they can be favoured is a mystery...even in Long Island!

The Leafs play better when they're suppose to suck, they'll probably make the playoffs.:sm:
