Let's Try To Keep This Run Going
PITTSBURGH PENGUINS ML
Not liking this spot for the Mighty Ducks tomorrow even if they have been playing better hockey lately. The home team has had a dominant 8-1 record in their last 9 games while the Ducks have lost their last 4 games in Pittsburgh. Pens have won their last 6 at home and I am still not sold on the way Anaheim plays on the road with a dismal 6-16 visting record. I expect to see a dominant performance by the Pittsburgh Penguins tomorrow in the hopes of them getting their seventh consescutive home win. These guys are playing great hockey and have only lost 3 of their last 15 games.
VANCOUVER CANUCKS ML
The Avalanche have had plenty of rest for this game tomorrow but I still couldn't care less. This team tends to play even worse when they have had 3 or more nights off and have only won twice in their last 8 games overall. Lots of pulpy tropicana on this play but I'll take a screwdriver shot of it tomorrow. Vancouver has dominated this team at home and since 2010 Colarado has only beaten them on the road once. In the last 16 times these two have squared off the Avalanche have only won 3 times which makes this a confident play on Van City. The Nucks should be firing from all angles against this struggling opponent.
EDMONTON OILERS ML
I don't usually like betting on the Oilers but I think this is a great spot to take them tomorrow. The Leafs just look absolutely dumbfounded as they have started to go back to their struggling ways. In their last 4 games they have scored a meager 5 goals while opponents rattled them for 16. This does terrible things to the mindstate of a team and both goalies seem to have hit rock bottom. The Edmonton Oilers have won their last 4 home games and in those games they scored a total of 18 goals. These wins came from teams like Detroit, San Jose and Chicago. Quite impressive if I do say so myself. Not only has Toronto been awful lately but they are even worse on the road as they have gone 2-8 in their last 10 road games. I will most certainly roll with this hot home team that will be pumped to make a statement against these Torontonians tomorrow.
As always, BOL to everyone on the ice tomorrow
