YTD: 14-13 (-0.05)
TB@TOR UN 5.5 -110
Both teams looking quite good defensively. I'm still not sold on TB's ability to score goals but I like what I'm seeing from their D so the under looks like the play here. All 4 meetings last year saw 5 goals or less.
BOS ML +120 & UN 5.0 -120
Bruins have the number one PK in the league right now. Both teams are below the league average in terms of number of goals scored, but the Devils are significantly worse in this regard than BOS (BOS 18th; NJ 24th). Despite NJ's 4-game winning streak, I'm still not convinced that the Devils are a great team all of a sudden. They only managed 11 shots vs. BUF the other night and somehow still managed to win 3-1 (incidently, 2 of
the 3 NJ goals were on the PP, a rate od success that likely won't be repeated tonight). NJ looks like a sucker bet, I'll take the BOS home dog here.
DET@CAR UN 5.5+100
I can't believe this line. Sure we all know DET can score. But in my mind it is far more significant that the under is 7-1 in CAR home games this season. Talk about convincing! But what about the goaltenders? Thanks to Chenker we know that Hasek has the flu but may still play. In my mind this is not as significant as it would seem: if Hasek plays, we have the benefit of one of the league's top goalers betwen the pipes; if not, and we get a minor leaguer (since Legace's having the MRI), then expect DET tighten their defense up considerably to compensate. That's how I see it. As for CAR, both Irbe and Barrasso are plenty reliable so I don't see a problem there.
Salami UN 58.5 -110
Wow, I'm on a lot of unders today! So this play kinda makes sense. Leaning to the under in the PHX@BUF, MIN@NSH and MON@EDM but can't pull the trigger on the individual plays. Nothing like a lil' bit of Grand Salami to spice things up. heh.
Good Luck tonight crew
