NHL Playoff Puck Picks

Sugar's Whistlin' Wednesday Picks

Pittsburgh (-135) @ Columbus (L)

The Pens scored 3 straight late last game to steal one on the road. I don't expect Pittsburgh to allow tonight's game to come to that point. Expect Pittsburgh to win by 2 or more.

Anaheim (-105) @ Dallas (L)

Dallas got their first playoff win in basically forever the other night. Now that's out of the way I expect things to right themselves within the universe and the Ducks to destroy the Stars. Anaheim is so much better on paper and on the ice it's not worth discussing. 

Saint Louis @ Chicago (-145) (WINNER!)

The Hawks got into the heads of the Blues players and fans with the "wakey, wakey Backes" fiasco.  The fact that Saint Louis fans and players alike are a bunch of cry baby bitches has been exposed. A team with the likes of Patrick Kane will not allow that to go to waste. Look for the Hawks to continue chirping the Blues effectively taking them off their game and evening the series for Chicago.
