Free NHL Predictions December 1 2010

The Tampa Bay Lightning came through for me last night forcing overtime late and then potting one in the extra frame to win the game.  This basically split the night because I was way off with my under prediction on the Blues vs Blackhawks game that ended up having a total of 12 goals scored.  Three more picks for you tonight including one puck line and one money line wager.

Edmonton Oilers @ Montreal Canadiens

The Oilers somehow pulled out a win over the Senators on Monday night despite being outplayed by the opposition.  Gerber played very well in that game and now has 2 wins and 0 losses starting in goal for the Edmonton Oilers, which is really quite the feat considering the state of the team this season.  Dubnyk gets the call tonight and although he has played well he has lost his last 2 games, giving up 9 goals over that span.  With Carey Price playing like a man possessed in the Montreal net the goaltender matchup is in favour of the Habs tonight.  Needless to say the team matchup is also very heavily in favour of Montreal, who are (10-3-0) in their last 10 games and have won their last 3 at the Bell Centre.  I expect the Canadiens to really take it to this Oilers team that has yet to string two wins together since the first two games of the season.

My Pick: Montreal Canadiens (-1.5) +150 @ TheSportsbook.com

Phoenix Coyotes @ Minnesota Wild

The Coyotes played last night to a 3-0 loss in Nashville, while Minnesota had the night off.  That being said the Wild are coming off of a 3-0 loss of their own and will be happy to return home where they boast a (7-5-1) record this season.  As mentioned this is the second of back to back games for Phoenix, who are (1-3-1) in the second leg of back to back games this season.  The Wild need to win their home games in order to stay in the playoff race because they have never been able to perform well at home.  I expect the Coyotes to be flat and to add a loss to their back to back game record.

My Pick: Minnesota Wild -135 @ Sportsbook.com
