I just started posting in this forum after reading a lot for the last few weeks. This thread is a daily stop for me because it's one of the few that's got more discussion / thought behind the picks. Thanks for putting the time in every day PG.
My calls for tonight are
LAK @ NSH (-170)
The Kings offence is non-existent right now and they're not going to turn it around against against the Predators in Nashville. Nashville has won five of the last 6 meetings between these teams. I'm leaning strongly to the Under 5.5 as well with a Quick/Rinne matchup.
MIN @ CAL (-210)
Calgary is coming back from a rough roadtrip and will turn it around tonight at home. They're 9-1 ATS vs MIN at home in the past 3 years, and Backstrom is 1-5 vs the Flames in that time.
PHI (-210) @ NYI
There's no way NYI take out two top teams in a row in B2B games. Look for them to get overpowered tonight, with their weak record in division games (4-17). PHI has won the last eight meetings between these two teams, with five of them being by 2+ goals. Danis has also allowed 9 goals in 2 games vs PHI this season.

The philly game tonight should be an easy win, they know pittsburgh won today and are creeping on them, no way NYI can wn B2B games, last nights game was a trap in my books.
Boston at toronto....boston easily...toronto dont got a chance against these boys...they suck..and well, Boson still wants to win games before the playoffs. -1.5
Flames turn it around tonight

Toronto tends to surprise teams at times... Although I think Thomas will be solid and Pogge will get lit up in this one.

What is going on with the philly game? I assume you can watch it PapaGeorge. I am left with updates on espn but that is enough to let me know that the islanders are winning 2-0

The Islanders actually played well the first 2 periods, they were more physical team.
