Sorry guys I don’t have any time today to write up tips. I’m starting a new job today and I have to leave shortly, that’s why these are so early. I should know my schedule better after tomorrow. I know Graeme is away on vacation so I’ll try my best to post tips when I can.
I wanted to get a post out so any readers can post thoughts and their plays in the comments.
Scott Laughton, Bobby McMann and Oliver Ekman-larsson were pulled by the Leafs for today’s game.
Lean: New Jersey moneyline win
Trade talk on sports radio is starting to get caffeinated. Dangerous time to bet on teams where trades imminent. Expect a rush of trades in the 24 hours before deadline Friday.
To WIN moneyline: Carolina
Carolina will win if they show up, but they many not depending on play-through injuries and exhaustion issues. Not desperate for points. Canucks are screwed to the floor, it’s like a Monty Python skit. Don’t take the puckline, because the Canucks are so bad Carolina may easily shut them down and not score much. Puckline could easily happen, but I see it risky. Not taking the full game Over either.
OVER 5.0: NYI/Anaheim
To WIN moneyline: Seattle
THURSDAY: Ottawa to win, moneyline
Sens are looking OK, need points, are fast. Flames suck right now; can’t score, get scored on.
