NHL Betting Predictions December 5th

Senators logoI took Sunday off again because I couldn’t find any strong plays, on Saturday I went 1 for 3 and lost 1 unit, which brings the season record to (56-54) for +2.05 units.  Tonight I’m only making one play, but hopefully we can start the week off with a win and start another hot streak.

Tampa Bay Lightning @ Ottawa Senators

The Lightning are on a 3 game losing streak and are 4-8-2 on the road this season.  Meanwhile the Senators are on a 2 game losing streak of their own, but they are returning home after a 3 game road trip, and they have a 6-4-1 record at the Scotiabank Place this season.  Craig Anderson is getting the nod in net, while Roloson, who has struggled this season with a 3.51 GAA and .887 save percentage is in goal for the Lightning.  The fact that this is a pick’em game at 5Dimes seems strange to me as looking at the numbers the Senators should be the favourites (which they are at every other sportsbook I looked at).
