NHL 2010.03.10 final 2 picks:
Carolina Hurricanes @ Washington Capitals
Carolina is 8-1 in their last 9 games. After the break, they are 3-1. In that span of 9 games, they had a easy calendar, as, for me, only the win in Buffalo is something big. The other teams they met on the road were among the wakers of the league. Even the teams they met at home, despite the Devils, who is passing really bad moments, the teams were not a big deal. So, this good record they have right now were not to difficult and is not to surprising. It's true that the Hurricanes had a huge improvement, after they struggled during the first months with Staal out. This team is a team that his very cohesive and that's a good edge, as they never give up for a game. This team usually scores 2.40 goals per game on the road, allowing 3.20 goals per game. Lately they had improved that numbers, but as I said, they had facilities, and now will have a streak where they will face real and strong opponents.
Washington lost their last home game, just the third game they have lost at home this season. For a team that wishes to win the title, they can't have bad moments. The last lost before this one, where in the last days of December, 3-6, when they hosted.... the Hurricanes. So, the team can't say that they weren't advised, and it will be hard to explain another home loss against the Hurricanes. Capitals are really a strong team, that can very easily score, and have big names also in their defense. With some Russian players that will give their lives to compensate the lost of a Olympic medal with the Stanley Cup, this team will have to show how a champion is made. And that includes to be smart and learn from bad experiences, which I expect today.
Pick: Washington Capitals PL -1.5 +105 (2.05) 5Dimes
Los Angeles Kings @ Chicago Blackhawks
Both teams are 2-2 after the Olympic break. So, there is a total of 8 games played involving at least one of these teams, and in that 8 games, we have 8 overs.
We have two teams in a good position to grant a place in the playoffs, as they are making good seasons. Despite e little better record for the Blackhawks, we can consider the season that LA is making better, as we all expected less from them. The Kings are a team that is playing really well, and can easily score, with 3.6 goals scored in the last 5 games. They are not the kind of team that faces the road games with fear, they go to fight, and know that scoring goals is their best way to try their chances on the road games. Today, they will face Chicago that is comfortable leading their division, and can try to explore that detail, as they need wins. In the Pacific Division, LA is tied with Phoenix and 3 wins behind San Jose. But they are not so far as it seems, as they are the betters second places with Phoenix.
Chicago is a great team with great values and some of medalist of Olympic games. They are leading by 7 wins their division, but after a loss at home and some hard games in the next games, they will try to achieve a win. The question is the value of their commit to it, and they are probably more interested in the next games. But the difference that this will make, it will be in their defense. Chicago never despise their offense, with 4.40 goals scored in their last 5 games. Today, they will probably give a chance to be a open game, with a fast pace and lot's of goals.
Pick: Over 5.5 -120 (1.83) The Greek

NHL 2010.03.12 only pick:
New York Rangers @ Atlanta Thrashers
These two teams appear to be in the same situation so we have to look for an edge... Atlanta lost their last 3 games in a row, including one in Tampa and two at home against Carolina and Nashville. These were poor losses against "average" opponents.
New York started well after the Olympic break with a big win in Ottawa but since then have 4 losses in a row. However, that figure includes two home losses in OT against Pittsburgh and Buffalo. In the other two games, both on the road, they lost against Washington and New Jersey but didn't surrender easily. So, we can conclude that Rangers, despite the results, are in better shape overall than the Thrashers.
Against a soft team like Atlanta, that have one of the worst defenses in the league, it's the perfect game for the Rangers to bounce back. Their roster has lots of talent, despite them sometimes struggling offensively. After 3 straight games without points, Gaborik is ready to explode.
Atlanta's home advantage is something that is fading fast and I simply can't see them winning on home ice tonight.
Pick: New York Rangers 3Way (1X2) +135 (2.35) Bookmaker, Goalwin

NHL 2010.03.15 only pick:
Boston Bruins @ New Jersey Devils
For this matchup is hard to pass, as there is big value in the odds. It's true that the Devils got one of the most talented rosters, and will play at home.
But if we look in the current form and shape, we can't forget that the Bruins seems to be back to their best, the same team that were the best team in the regular season last year.... by far.
Boston is 3-4 since the break, losing the first game at home 1-4 to Montreal. Since that game, they won the game or lose it by one goal only. Their defense is showing some improvements, despite this being the six straight road game.
Despite this hard spot for the Bruins, there is no doubt that the team is taking it in the best way, as they are testing themselves to achieve a good form. The playoffs aren't lost yet, and fail that goal it will make this season a really bad season.
Their best win after the break was in Philadelphia, 5-1 to the locals Flyers. This show how this team faces the big games, games where they have to show that they deserve and should be seen as a playoff contenders.
The Devils acquired Kovalchuk just before the break. Kovalchuk is unquestionable in the Top 10 players of the league, at least. However, the team got a letdown spot, as they with several defeats and 3-3 after the break.
Their defense needs to improve, while their offense stills looking for the best chemistry. They are allowing more goals per game than the goals they score per game, and that's never good for a team that is a contender to the Stanley Cup.
Perhaps the bar was placed to high, everyone had big expectations for the team with Parise and Elias between others, but with Kovalchuk arriving to the team, all the spotlights are over the team. And the team isn't dealing well with it, showing that despite the talent, they can't handle with the off-game like a champions.
Today, they will have a really hard game, as they will face a strong defense that likes to play these games against big teams. Isn't because of the talent, as they have it, but concerning the mental preparation, the Devils shouldn't have so much favoritism.
