I was really hoping for an empty netter last night in the Leafs vs Penguins game but there were a couple empty net blocked shots that kept me from hitting the over. Tonight is a massive night in the NHL though so I have a few plays that should come through to make up for it.
Buffalo Sabres @ Boston Bruins
The Sabres had a tough battle with the Hurricanes last night, but I think they will have enough in the tank tonight to visit their rivals with a playoff position on the line. This will be a very close checking game and I think it could go either way so I love the Sabres odds.

Los Angeles Kings @ Columbus Blue Jackets
I’m backing the Blue Jackets every chance I get right now. Bookies are underestimating a team with nothing to lose and players fighting for jobs next year. The Jackets have won three straight and have been good at home recently.

New York Rangers @ Ottawa Senators
The Sens can score and Ben Bishop looked a little shaky for them in net on Tuesday. I see this game having a few goals potted to hit the over.

San Jose Sharks @ Dallas Stars
Sometimes you just have to call it what it is instead of looking at how well teams should be playing. The facts are that the Sharks have been abysmal of late and the Stars have been ripping it up. So when the Sharks are still favourites on a trip to Dallas I’m calling BS and backing the Stars right away. The Sharks should be a good team, but they can’t win lately and what is different about tonight other than heading to a city where the club has won 7 of their last 8, with the only loss coming in a shootout.
