I kept it simple last night and just picked one game out of the lineup that I felt confident in. Luckily the Panthers did come out with the win, which brings the season to date record to (37-29) for +9.40 units. I’m excited to get back above the 10 unit mark with tonights plays.
Washington Capitals @ New Jersey Devils
The Caps have struggled significantly of late going losing their last two games and 4 of their last 6. Ovechkin just hasn’t seemed to be able to get going this season and the Caps are having to rely on their depth to get the job done (which they have plenty of). The Caps are also only 3-3-0 away from the Verizon Center. The Devils on the other hand have won 3 straight including 2 tight wins at home (over mediocre teams). The Caps have the ability to turn their streak around, but the Devils are also a good team who are 4-2-1 at home this season and have as good a shot as the Caps in this one, so the odds are too good to pass up.

Ottawa Senators @ Buffalo Sabres
Daniel Alfredsson is ready to return from his concussion which is a huge factor in my decision to bet on this game. The Sens are on a four game losing streak, which helped shed some more light on just how important Daniel Alfredsson is to this Senators team (this has been proven for years with other injuries). The boost of their captain in the lineup should help the Senators in this one and this being the first of a 5 game road trip for the team it is crucial that they get off on the right track and the team will know this.

Carolina Hurricanes @ New York Rangers
The Rangers are on quite a roll winning their last 5 games and they show no signs of slowing down. The Hurricanes on the other hand have lost 3 straight. I expect both streaks to continue to night. Lundqvist and the Rangers will find a way to add this game to their win column.
