Thought I would throw up a quick post – but no tips today. New Years Day I was just a bit hesitant with how the teams are etc. Will be back tomorrow!

+5.5 goals in utah good play?
I dont think so…. Series history under, good goalies especially Rittich lights out lately… NYI are baffling ???
Under 6.5 was at -150 there….
Happy New Years, everyone!
I’ve got to start by saying the overly busy schedule is relentless and probably my #1 game feature to look for this season. Players must be getting VERY exhausted, but the good thing about this is that teams and players will be learning how to reach peak self-discipline in dealing with rest, peak sports/performance nutrition, practice methods and mental control. No doubt, the # of times that good teams “take the night off” will want to increase as good strategy, but fighting against that idea is the overly tight playoff race across the league, where every game is that much more important. Injuries will plague teams from here on.
Tonight:
1) Habs/Hurricanes: Full game Over 5.0
Both teams playing very well, scoring and getting scored on. Lots of ties in regulation with these two track records. Montreal has the edge in rest recently.
2) Nashville/Seattle: Full game Over 5.0
Nashville is on a back-to-back with travel but has been playing very well. Seattle had 2 days off and is at home, been playing OK.
Also looking at props but probably not betting props with all the back-to-backs going on.
