Another bad month, but I have a feeling February will be where I start to turn things around.
Season record: 36-67 for -34.03 units.
There are a lot of games on tap today, but I don’t like the odds on many of them. Just sticking with two plays today.
Philadelphia Flyers @ Los Angeles Kings
The Flyers and Kings are both struggling, but someone has to win this one. The Kings have lost 7 of their last 8 and are slowly slipping into worrisome waters in the Western Conference playoff standings. Today they host another Metropolitan team after losing to the Pens 4-1 on Thursday. The Flyers are also struggling having lost 5 of their last 6 games. They have been playing some either strong or streaking opponents though so I expect them to be ready to go tonight. They are also in a crucial spot in the standings where they need to find some W’s. Just because they are such big dogs and I think this game could go either way I’m on the Flyers.
Play: Flyers 2.60 (SportsInteraction)
Pittsburgh Penguins @ Phoenix Coyotes
The Penguins are simply a better team than the Coyotes and they win this one the majority of the time. At 1.80 odds the implied probability of them winning this game is 55.56%. I see them winning 2 out of 3 times, which makes odds of 1.80 a smart bet on the Pens tonight. The Coyotes have not been playing their best hockey of late and should be easy pickings for the Penguins.
Play: Penguins 1.80 (5Dimes)
