The Binghampton Senators finally won against a good Syracuse team in their last game stopping a long slide due to lineups issues. The Sens are starting to look again like a decent AHL team. Binghamton got their sniper Ilya Zubov back in the lineup. Zubov played a few games with the Ottawa Senators. The Sens also get defenseman Derek Smith (injury) back in the lineup tonight.
The Hershey Bears are on a roll, they won their last 5 games scoring a ton of goals. Hershey destroyed Binghampton 9-0 at home on nov. 16.
Well, it's revenge time for Binghampton and we have a change of misfortune in tonight's contest. I actually bet the Hershey Bears on nov. 16 due to Binghampton huge lineups problems due to NHL recalls and injuries. This time I'm going the other way. Indeed, Hershey will play this game through adversity. The Washington Capitals are living a situation similar to the Ottawa Senators just two weeks ago. The Caps have a rash of injuries at the moment and recalled 4 players of the Hershey Bears today. A fifth player defenseman Tyler Sloan was recalled last week. The Caps recalled defensemen Sami Lepisto and Karl Azner. Also recalled are forwards Chris Bourque and Graham Mink. The Bears will be without their top 3 defensemen and two of their top 2 forwards. Forget the 9-0of nov. 16 the lineups are different this time. Oddsmakers posting a line based on standings only tonight. Over the last two weeks the oddsmakers have not adjusted their lines in Binghampton games and 3 very good betting opportunities were available.
I like Binghampton chances here, we have a revenge factor and favorable matchups. You take away 4 good players out of a red hot team and you have a possibility of breaking up chemistry. I see Hershey as a small favourite here, I think we have 30-40 cents value in this matchup. A price of +160 was available early in the day.
Binghampton (+149)
