Plays for January 17th, 2014

[JesseJacobs77]

Only 2 games on the schedule tonight. Got picks for both.

WASHINGTON vs Columbus (+116 @ Pinnacle)

Washington seems like a decent road dog tonight, even though they are on a 3 game skid. Washington is 6-1SU in their last 7 in Columbus, as well as 5-0 in their last 5 overall vs Columbus. This is a good underdog pick at a great price. Columbus is on a 4 game win streak, so this game stays close. However, with Gaborik, Skille, Comeau and Boll out, it'll give Washington an easier containment job tonight, and let Ovi light the lamp. Close game, Washington takes it 3-2.

Anaheim vs Chicago UNDER 5.5 (+103 @ Pinnacle)

Not really too farfetched here. 8 of the last 10 these 2 played have gone under the total, including 5 of the last 6 played in Chicago. Both teams goalies (Starters and backups) are playing solid. This is a steal in my books.

Best of Luck!

Can't disagree with your plays.
I put .5 units on the Under as well in the Chicago game.
Just made sense according to the history of when these 2 teams meet up.
In addition, will be a playoff atmosphere in the UC tonight. Goals may be harder to come by.

Hoping to go to 20-10 in Under plays in the last month.

Even with Chicago losing as of late, their goaltending hasnt been terrible. I think they've just been getting some bad bounces and unlucky at times which cost goals, but they've managed to have a decent January thus far, at 2-1-4, so 8 points in 7 games. Also note that 5 of these 7 January games were below a 5.5 total, including 3 of the last 4 at home.
