The Coyotes lost in a shootout last night in my only play of the evening. It’s always frustrating when you are a coin flip away from a big dog’s victory only to end up on the wrong end of the coin. Well today it’s Valentine’s day, but more importantly it’s a Tuesday, which means there are plenty of games to choose from in the NHL. My season record to date now sits at (104-118) for -11.57 units.
Ottawa Senators @ Tampa Bay Lightning
The Lightning have lost 3 of their last 4, but 2 of these losses came on a recent 3 game road team against a couple of top squads (Rangers and Penguins). The Lightning will be happy to be home where they are 15-8-2 this season. That being said this game is the yearly father’s trip for the Ottawa Senators, which the Sens have done very well on in the past. A rejuvenated Senators team, will be ready to impressive their father’s live from Tampa Bay and I believe this will be the difference.

Chicago Blackhawks @ Nashville Predators
The Blackhawks have lost 8 straight and looking at their schedule on NHL.com, the Predators started this losing trip with back-to-back wins against the Blackhawks way back on January 21st and 24th. The Blackhawks have been bad on the road this season anyways with a 10-14-3 record, heading into Nashville where the Preds are 17-7-4. As only small favourites you have to take the Preds in this one.

Toronto Maple Leafs @ Calgary Flames
The Maple Leafs are slipping down the standings with their recent 3 regulation time losses, so this upcoming road trip to western Canada is very important for them. To start out they head to Calgary to play a team that has done very well at home this season (15-8-2). The Leafs road record of (12-13-2) isn’t completely horrible, but the team hasn’t been playing too well and the Flames as small favourites is the smart play in this one.
