    Monday NHL Pick - With Reasoning!

    Hello All,

    Teams are tired, injuries pile up and travel takes its toll.
    Only one underdog looked live enough for my wager.

    Buffalo +135

    On Saturday this team beat the Capitals with Johnson in net. He starts again tonight, and regardless of the travel, that kind of win bleeds over. His 33 saves were good for 97% of the Capitals shots. He is prone to being involved in high scoring games, but I have to think the defense is going to show up for him after that kind of effort.

    The Sabres season PP/PK stands at 97.7 which is a tick better than the Coyotes. In January, the Sabres are trending up posting PP/PK at 104.6. The Coyotes are maintaining their season PP/PK in January, but doing it with the leagues best PP and leagues worst PK in January. I'm not a rocket scientist, but that makes me question coaching. They've lost two in a row and are in the middle of a 7 game homestand where there likely isn't much bonding going on.

    I'll take the Sabres and count on Domingue still feeling the sting of that OT goal he gave up to the Red Wings in his last start.

    Good Luck
