2-0-2 Last night as the Hawks and Preds continue to light the lamp with ease...will the lines makers ever figure out that both of these teams just aren't that good right now defensively.....I look for a play against on who ever wins this series in round 2.
SIDES
4* Tampa Bay -1/2g regulation -105 .... Just like the Canucks last night, I look for Tampa Bay to bounce back in a huge way tonight with lots of goals ...I think this game will get out of hand and turn into a complete rout ...Still I am not willing to risk the -185.... As we saw the other night , TB outshot Detroit 46-15 and also went 0-7 on the PP, anything can happen. WINNER
3* Anaheim -140 .... The Ducks top line is in full gear right now and leading this team the way a top line should...I think the Ducks are probably one of the top 4 teams favorite to win the Cup...they took a few games off during the regular season , but they are all business right now...They have beaten this Winnipeg team 5 straight dating back to last year....Jets have also lost 5 straight quarterfinal playoff games....I look for the Ducks to hold serve and take a 2-0 lead on to Winnipeg for game 3.WINNER
TOTALS
4* MIN/STL under 5 -110 ....Coming right back to this under even though the 3rd period was a goal extravaganza in game 1..It is already desperation time for the Blues as they don't want to go back to Minny down 2-0 and heading for an early exit again this year after such high expectations heading into the playoffs...Blues are very capable of going on lock down D , they will need to to have any chance to get past the Wild in this series.PUSH
3* DET/TB over 5.5 +120... As stated in the earlier post , I expect a rout tonight on the Florida West Coast....This Tampa team is very capable of making the Eastern Finals or even moving on to play for the Cup...though the under did get home in game one , it was an act of God to get there...Bolts in a huge way tonight 5-2.WINNER
4* WIN/ANA over 5 -140.... Just as the CHI/NSH series oddsmakers just refuse to push this total to 5.5, it's a bit closer than the other night but still at that magical number of 5....These two teams are defensive statistically except when they play each other....For some reason they play a wide open game when they face each other, In the L6 games they are 4-0-2 Over to the total of 5... Once again until they can show me they are willing to slow this pace down I'll pump the Over. LOSER
AS ALWAYS GOOD LUCK !!!!!!
