Fresh off of a shitty 1 and 2 night with losses on T.B./Colorado over and Nashville -.5. 1 win on Boston Celtics -4. Tonight I have three picks that I consider strong.
1. Phoenix @ Edmonton over 5.5.
The over is 12-2-1 in Phoenix's last 15 games and 5-1 in Edmonton's L6. In this series since '96 the over is 21-7 and 8-1 in the L3Y. In the last 6 meetings no game went under 5. These two played last on 2/27 and Phoenix won 7-2.
2. Fla. @ Was. under 5.
The under is 19-10 in Fla.'s road games this year and 8-3 in their division games. Florida has not seen a game go over in their last 9 (under is 7-1-2 L10). The under is 5-2-1 in Washington's L8. In the series the under is 6-1-3 in the L9. Luongo, the goalie for Fla., has 3 shutouts in his L6 games also.
3. Calgary @ St. Louis under 4.5.
Past history says take the over but in the two meetings this year they have not seen more than 3 goals in a game. The under is 6-2 in Calgary's L8 and St. Louis has played in three straight unders. With Kiprusoff having the best GAA and St.Louis only having 5 goals in the last 5 games, it points to a low scoring affair.
4. Carolina -.5 vs. Columbus. This is not as strong of a play but I still like it. These two have only played 5 times since '96 and Carolina is 4-1 overall and 3-0 at home. C-Bus is pretty much a heartless team on the road going
4-23-4 on the road.
Take your pick I like all of these and I will play all of these. Good Luck.
