Last night we made a single play and although they didn’t look good the Coyotes managed to pull out the win. Or perhaps it’s more accurate to say that the Hurricanes found a way to lose, which they have been doing a lot of this season. That win brings the season record to (71-68) for +6.42 units. Tonight there are 8 games in the NHL so we have a few opportunities to win some more cash.
Florida Panthers @ Ottawa Senators
The Senators recently got Kuba and Gonchar back from injury, which is a huge help to the team as these are both top 4 defencemen. Last game the Senators absolutely destroyed the Buffalo Sabres and I don’t expect them to play any differently tonight. The Sens have been a streaky team all season and they have won 2 in a row up to this point and Craig Anderson is getting the nod in net, which is also good for the team. The Panthers haven’t been as strong of late having lost 4 of their last 6 games, and only winning their 2 in extra time or the shootout. The Senators should outclass the Panthers tonight and that should be enough for the win.

Minnesota Wild @ Edmonton Oilers
The Wild have lost 5 in a row, while the Oilers have lost four straight. Both teams have had a very difficult time scoring of late so I expect this to be a low scoring game, but something does have to give and one of these teams will break their losing streak tonight. The Wild have shown they are capable of being a very strong team this year and still sit near the top of the NHL standings. Backstrom gets the nod in net tonight for the Wild and he will be facing Khabibulin at the other end. Both ‘tenders have been strong this season and they should help make this a defensive battle. In a low scoring game I have to give the edge to the Wild, and the solid odds make a Minnesota bet the where the smart money is going tonight.
