NHL Picks

Washington @ Carolina (EVEN)

The Capitals are 1-3-1 in their last 5 and are coming off 2 straight losses.  Basically, if Ovi doesn't out score the other team then the Caps lose.  I still think this team without Ovi is one of the worst in the NHL.  Carolina wins at home.

Vancouver (+120) @ Pittsburgh

This game features one of the best teams in the West and one of the best teams in the East.  The Sedin Twins are back on track, putting on a scoring clinic night to night.  Vancouver rolls on the road.

New Jersey @ Toronto -1.5 (+170)

Toronto is turning the Air Canada Centre into a death trap for road teams.  The Devils are slumping hard right now.  Toronto should take care of bidness at home.

NY Islanders @ Ottawa (EVEN)

Ottawa at home on Alfredsson's retirement night. 

Columbus @ Florida (-145)

Florida doesn't exactly have an intimidating home arena but they're playing Columbus.  The Jackets have been riding front row on the struggle bus this year. Florida is coming off a win at Joe Louis so they're feeling themselves.

Buffalo @ Tampa -1.5 (–120)

Stamkos & Johnson should put on a scoring clinic tonight.  I recently discovered that Stamkos reps a 17.5% shooting percentage. Basically every time gets 5-6 shots on goal he scores.

Dallas @ Detroit (-180)

Detroit is the real deal this year I'm calling it right now.  The combination of youth and veterans compounded with the best coach in the world is something the rest of the league should be worried about.  Dallas is struggling. Wings win at home.

Saint Louis (+125) @ Nashville 

Tune in and watch the Tarasenko-Oshie special.  Smashville is about to get smashed. 

Colorado @ Calgary (-145)

Colorado is garbage and I couldn't be happier about it.  Fuck the Avs and fuck Patrick Roy.
