    Picking the Heavy Favorites
    Picking all the heavy favorites tonight.

    Vancouver Canucks -210
    Boston Bruins -210
    Washington Capitals -210

    Possible parlay of Boston and Washington if you are playing, but i do not feel 100% with Vancouver for parlay.

    Calgary Flames +110
    - Kiprusoff is on an 11-2-3 run, allowing two goals or fewer 11 times during that span.
    - No Halak, No Vladimir Sobotka.
    - Calgary needs to win win just about every night in order to maintain its spot in the Western Conference's elite eight.
    - Last 10: Calgary 6-2-2; St. Louis 4-5-1.
    - Clagary won last 2 meeting. Sunday was the most recent wining 1-0.
    - Calgary has been on fire lately.
    - After a loss blue are After a loss are 4-6 and Calgary is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games on the road
    and is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games when playing on the road against St. Louis, and also After a win are 7-3 and playing tuesdays they are 6-4.

    Gl to all who are playing tonight with these picks. Hope we cash!

      Need to play in regulation time or whatever otherwise you're at risk of putting up big cash and losing it due to the odds.

            Line movement is in favor of Ottawa as of right now just a heads up. So be careful.

                If anything tho i am worried about Canucks. I think it should be a close one or its not really predictable they are very swingy lately win-lose-win-lose, etc.

                  Boston is definitely a far more superior team the Ottawa is right now but a lot of Sens players are playing for their jobs for a spot on the roster next year. Also, this is the Bruins last game of a 6 game road stand so that might be the reasoning on why the line movement is in favor on the Sens.

                  As much as I like the Bruins to smack the Sens tonight I just cannot pull the trigger on them. Best of luck nonetheless bro

                      I really don't see Ottawa upsetting Boston tonight. Alfredsson and Michalek are out. I'd be very surprised if Boston lost. Just my 2 cents.

                          Sometimes though, you just need to go with your gut. I parlayed a Boston win with a San Jose win. I'm feeling confident.

                              Yeah. Rask is confirm for Boston. I'm Not touching this game. Good Luck tho!

                                Last time Boston was in Ottawa (less than 2 weeks ago), Rask started, and the Bruins won 4-2. I don't get your logic.

                                  I would even play under for this game.

                                    Rask has lost a lot of his confidence ever since losing his starting job this season. His numbers are way down from what they were last year and the playoffs. I'm not saying its not a safe bet to take the Bruins with Rask in net but I'd feel a lot better if Thomas was in net since the team has more confidence in Thomas than Rask at the moment. Thats the main difference between a number 1 goalie and a number 2.

                                      I was just saying if it were Thomas in net. Would've been a lock. With rask, ott has a sslight chance of winning. Ill probably play Ottawa for the value.

                                            Betting heavy favs in hockey is quick recipe to poorhouse. You may win today, tomorrow but over long haul, you will lose money.
                                            The reason is, many times odds for favs are not valuable..

                                                Sorry to hear you had a bad night.

                                                How about we turn that around with a Wings win tonight? What do you say? There's some good value to be won there!

                                                  How about we turn that around with a Wings win tonight? What do you say? There's some good value to be won there!
                                                  I'm already on it...but so is a lot of other people LOL. You got any other plays other then the Wings?

                                                  I like the Over 5.5 Pens/Leafs, Wild ML and Detroit PL.

                                                    he is right. glad, for your sake, that you collected on the picks last night. good luck in the future!

                                                      I'm with you on the over in the Pens/Leafs. Those are the only 2 plays of the day I'll be doing.

                                                      Good luck with the rest of your picks!
