I went 2 for 5 on Tuesday, but thanks to the Senators come back win as massive dogs and the Jets win as small dogs I actually finished up 0.28 units.
Season Record: 37-71 for -33.15 units.
Winnipeg Jets @ Washington Capitals
The Jets are rolling. They went into Carolina against a Hurricanes team that is playing very well and came out with a win. Now they head to Washington to keep their streak alive and stay in the playoff hunt. The Jets have now won 9 of 11 games under Paul Maurice and what looked like a dire situation in Winnipeg has changed to a hopeful one with the Jets only two points out of the playoffs. The Caps on the other hand have not been great lately. They’ve lost 10 of their last 13 games and I personally think they are just not that great of a team. I expect them to miss the playoffs this year and this loss tonight won’t help in that respect.
Play: Jets 2.17 (5Dimes)
Vancouver Canucks @ Montreal Canadiens
The Canucks are dropping like stones in the Western Conference. They’ve lost 5 in a row without even registering a point. The Canucks are only 1 point ahead of the Coyotes for the last wild card spot in the West, but they’ve played two more games. The Canucks have lost their first 3 games of this road trip and I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a couple more losses before they headed home. The Habs aren’t exactly on top of their game, but they are playing well enough to beat this struggling Canucks squad.
Play: Canadiens 1.725 (5Dimes)
Buffalo Sabres @ Ottawa Senators
The Sens pulled off a crazy win in St. Louis a couple nights ago coming back from 3-1 down before winning the game in a shootout. It was probably the worst referee’d game I’ve seen in a long time, but the Senators overcame this adversity and beat both the Blues, who are one of the top teams in the league, and the refs. This has to be a good turning point in the Senators season and they will not let up against the Sabres. Buffalo played last night losing 5-1 to Pittsburgh. I expect a similar score tonight as the Sens know how to put the puck in the back of the net and the Sabres simply do not.
Play: Senators (-1.5) 2.44 (5Dimes)
Columbus Blue Jackets @ Los Angeles Kings
The Kings, like the Canucks are falling hard in the Western Conference. LA has only won 1 of their last 10 games and are 0-3 on this current home stand. The Blue Jackets come into town on a three game winning streak and still playing some of their best hockey of the season. I like the Blue Jackets to continue to roll and the Kings to continue to drop further down the playoff picture in the West.
Play: Blue Jackets 2.41 (5Dimes)
