    Sabres/Rangers

    NYR outplayed Buffalo for most of game 2 and still lost. Will they bounce back at -125 in game 3?

    Betplom,

    How can anyone say that Ottawa is MUCH better than New Jersey, especially at this time of year? Aside from the obvious fact that the Devils finished ahead of the Sens in the standings, Jersey has the perfect defensive style to advance in the playoffs, the same style that has earned them three cups, The Senators are a flash team that must rely on a frantic pace to beat New Jersey, and I do not expect to see a replay of the first half of Game 1 any more in this series.

    Most importantly, the Devils have already proven they know how to slow the potent Ottawa attack down, winning the last three regular season meetings 3-2, 3-2 (in Ottawa) and 2-1, and they successfully slowed the pace down again tonght in Game 2. I don't expect the Sens to have any more quick starts like Game 1 in this series, and as long as the Devils just play their game like they did tonight, I think +280 is great value at this point.

    NYR -122

    Although I think the sabres are the better team and will win the series, but for today im backing NYR. Again another crucial game for NYR as going down 3-0 would be death for them. This is the season on the line for them so i expect them to be coming out on all cylinders. Coming off a good effort on game 2 will give them the confidence they need and the energy of the crowd should help those legs keep up with the sabres. Furthermore buff hasn't looked particularly good on the road in the playoffs even though they won both against NYI, it just seemed they did just enough. Whereas NYR has looked impressive and confident at home, albeit it was against atlanta.
