Last night was another minus night with my picks going 1-3-0. The Kings finally were able to score more than 2 goals in game, defeating the Coyotes 4-3 at home, which must be a huge weight of the teams shoulders, but it did not help my bankroll. Tonight there are plenty more games to choose from so I will hopefully be improving upon my current (72-73) for +2.57 units record on the season.
Montreal Canadiens @ Ottawa Senators
The Habs were horrible heading into the Christmas break losing their last 5 games. They haven’t yet won under coach Randy Cunneyworth and I’m sure the Habs fans are blaming that on the fact that he is English. Anyways the Senators were playing good heading into Christmas, except for their sub par outing against the Hurricanes on the 22nd. Craig Anderson earned them a point in that game and the players are surely ready to return the favour. The Sens are simply a superior team and the Sens have been good at home this season.

Philadelphia Flyers @ Tampa Bay Lightning
The Flyers lost to their HBO rival Rangers heading into the Christmas break and they’ve had to deal with the cameras following them around after that game. I expect them to be ready to go tonight in Tampa Bay against another team they have some history against. The two teams were involved in the strange game where Philly refused to move the puck against the Lightning’s 1-3-1 early in the season. The Lightning won that game, but the Flyers will remember this team and be ready to display their dominance in this one.
