Tonight, I'm betting a 5 bet parlay on the following:
Canadiens/Thrashers U5.5 (-135), Flyers/Penguins U5.5 (-140), Buffalo ML (-115), Carolina PL (-190), Kings ML (-195)
$50 to win $588
Reasoning:
Montreal has been playing low scoring games and I think the true under for this game should've been 5. The Penguins have been allowing barely any scoring to opponents lately while they don't score many of their own. The Flyers are also playing tight hockey lately with a recent 2-1 loss to the Bruins at home. Again, I think the under should've been 5 for this one. Buffalo is hot, and so is Ryan Miller (first star of the week). They are in playoff mode, Toronto is all but out, an early goal for the Sabres will spoil the leafs spirits and Miller (who owns Toronto) will continue to own tonight. Carolina desperately needs to beat Washington (no Ovechkin) and even though I like them ML, it's too risky for my 5 bet parlay; I feel the PL is a very safe bet here. LA Kings over Edmonton who's lost 9 straight? Enough said.
