Only 3 games yesterday.

The Knights and Capitals game was a good one.  They traded goals until late in the game when the Knights scored two in a row and came away with the 4-3 win.

The Habs scored 3 times in the 2nd and held on for the 4-1 win against the Senators.  The Sens scored first in this game but Montreal answered with 4.  2 of the 4 goals scored were on the powerplay

The final game of the night was the Sharks vs the Hurricanes and the Sharks won 3-1.

The Super Bowl was great.  Better if you are and Eagles fan or just dislike the Patriots.  The Eagles won 41-33 for their first Super Bowl win.

Another slow day of action with only 4 games.  Could only come up with one tip.

Lightning and Oilers  Betting Tips:

This is the Lightnings final game of their 8 game road trip.  They have gone 5-2.

The Oilers have gone 4-1-1 over their last 6 games.  It’s a start for them but they will need to play like this for the rest of the year to get back into the playoff picture

Over the last 10 meetings of these teams the Lightning are 6-2-2.  I like their success against the Oilers to continue in this game.

Lightning win incl OT/SO

Syd

Thanks Scott.
‘Underdogs’ on 2 gm losing steaks (exception) Isles with 1 win
Oilers Nugent-Hopkins injured, Larson & Talbot dtod; (TSN)Backup Montoya is (2.96) GA
Ducks on a btob; Gibson is dtod (TSN) My guess Miller (2.40) vs Leafs and Berra (2.31)vs Sabres;
Isles & Rangers have too many to list; names are on TSN injuries list;
Based on team stats, goalies and odds, Leafs, Preds, Bolts ML & Stars Reg;
*Preds Forsberg (38pts) is on a 3gm suspension.
Good luck tonight!

magus1349

Islanders, Ducks, Rangers and Tampa with 1u;
Nelson, Henrique, Grabner and Johnson with 0.5u.

Syd

Hi magus,
Bold predictions:) ‘dogs’ are capable of stealing a win if they play 60 min, get some lucky bounces and ‘favs’ are over confident. Hope they come through for ya…except my team, the Leafs:) Good luck!

Tony Le

He ussually pic the dogs and hit st . When he hits … + 00

To WIN in regulation: Dallas
OVER: Islanders
Lean: Toronto tied with Anaheim after regulation
I’m not going with OVER for the Edmonton/Tampa game, because I figure there’s a good chance Tampa gets the lead and realizes they can shut down Edmonton by keeping them on the margins and letting McDavid waste his energy, keeping the score down. Anaheim/Toronto is so close in stats, I can’t see a side choice.

Syd

Surprised my bookie has the Isles/Preds O/U at 6 when the Preds GA is 2.46(3rd) On the other hand, Halak is (3.15) GA so if he has a really bad night, it could work:)
