I was at the Senators game on Monday and although I was cheering for the home team I had placed a wager on the Penguins because I saw the value in them continuing to win. They did just that, and the Jets also won, which led to another 2-0 night at the end of this regular season.
Season Record To Date: 64-57 for +9.11 units.
Tonight there are only 4 games on tap, but I see value in 2 of them.
Toronto Maple Leafs @ Tampa Bay Lightning
The Maple Leafs qualified for the playoffs with a win over the Senators on Saturday and now they head down south for a couple road games before finishing up the season at home against the Habs. The Leafs have been playing alright hockey and I don’t expect them to let up tonight against the Lightning. Toronto surely wants to keep their 5th place seeding heading into the playoffs to face off against a Habs team they have had much success against this season. Tamp on the other hand has nothing to play for, they’ve lost 6 games in a row and just look bad all in all.

Los Angeles Kings @ Detroit Red Wings
The Kings played last night and lost a hard fought battle with the Wild in Minnesota. They won’t get a break as they head to Detroit to face a team that is trying to make the playoffs. The Red Wings won their last game 4-0 over the Coyotes, but they need to win at least 2 of their remaining three to make the playoffs. I expect Detroit’s veterans to dig deep and come out with a big game, but this effort to make the playoffs could have them drained when the first round finally starts. Either way I like the Red Wings tonight.
