The Senators kept their stellar play with their father’s in the stands alive with a big 6-2 victory last night, but the Oilers lost a tough one in overtime, which meant I profited a big 0.01 units last night. The season record to date now sits at (108-119) for -8.48 units.
Chicago Blackhawks @ New York Rangers
The Blackhawks are currently on an 8 game losing skid and heading to play the top team in the league (according to points per game played) will likely not help their cause. The Rangers are also currently riding a 4 game winning streak, and these wins have been over some talented teams (Bruins, Capitals, Flyers). Even with their 8 game losing streak the Blackhawks are always expected to be a tough team, which is why the Rangers are only -150 favourites in this one. The team has just been playing too well and hosting the team that is struggling the most in the league at the present time shouldn’t present too much of a challenge.

Phoenix Coyotes @ Los Angeles Kings
The Coyotes were on a 5 game winning streak before losing in Vancouver in overtime on Monday. The quality of play is still there and I expect the Coyotes to bring their A-game into this very important match up with the Kings. LA is back home after a 6 game road trip that saw them pick up 5 points. The winner of this game will be sitting in 7th spot in the Western Conference, which shows the importance of this game. I feel the Coyotes have been playing better hockey of late than the Kings and as slight underdogs they are the smart pick tonight.
