Last night we ended up going 2-1 with Phoenix coming up with a big underdog win in OT to give us a night total of +1.37 units. Tonight the NHL slows down a little bit, but there are quite a few teams playing their second of back to back games. I’ve only found one line that I like and I will explain why I like it below.
Florida Panthers @ Ottawa Senators
Neither team has played well of late, but the play of Craig Anderson in the Senators game against the Leafs should lift the team. Tonight they will want to return the favour to their goaltender and score some goals to help the team win. Anderson should once again come out on top of his game and will be the better of the two goalies, as the Panthers are starting Clemmensen at the other end. The Panthers are still somewhat in the playoff hunt, but they have lost 8 of their last 11 games and are quickly dropping out of the race. The Senators have not performed well this season, but I expect them to bring their top game tonight against the struggling Panthers team.
My Pick: Ottawa Senators +100 (Bookmaker.com)

Fan Duel Likes Tonight
This is a new section where I will be selecting a couple players I will be picking for my Fan Duel fantasy NHL team this evening. Fan Duel is a nightly fantasy hockey game that you play for real money against other opponents. It’s a great idea that is sure to take off soon.
Last night I won a 5-player fantasy game that I entered, as well as a 1 v 1. This success will hopefully continue last night. (Bouchard did well for me last night)
I like:
Craig Anderson for $7700. This is about an average price for a goaltender and I expect big things out of Anderson tonight against a Panthers team that finds it hard to score.
Devin Setoguchi for $5600. Setoguchi has 5 goals and a +4 rating in his last 4 games. The prices don’t change too often, so get this guy for a steal at $5600.
