    ST.LOUIS AT CALGARY

    Blues a solid 9-1 last 10 vs Calgary, posting 8 consecutive wins in a row, Last time Calgary defeated the Blues was December 1st 2023.Calgary is 1-4 last 5 games played while St. Louis is 3-2 last 5 played. St. Louis is coming off a road loss to Winnipeg while Calgary returns home after a dismal 5 game road trip coming off a 5-2 loss Tuesday night in Detroit.. BLUES in a tight one..

    OTTAWA AT WASHINGTON

    Sens 3-2 last 5 vs Washington, 6-4 past 10 played. Like the way that Ottawa is playing going 4-1 last 5 focusing on the defensive side of the game while Washington has just 2 wins last 5 played. Big game for the Sens as they sit just 5 points from the final playoff spot in the east with 16 games remaining. Just think Ottawa is the better team, it's the first game of back to back + they play the Islanders at home tomorrow night. Team last played on Monday with a 7-4 home victory over San Jose.

    DALLAS AT COLORADO

    Dallas 4-1 last 5 , Colorado is 2-3 last 5 , Clash of the 2 best teams in the NHL tonight in a battle for the Central division. Dallas a very solid road team,  going 20-7-6 away from home. Meanwhile the Av's are a league best 23-6-4 at home. Last time these teams battled in Dallas on March 6th the Av's came away with a 5-4 shootout victory. These 2 team don't like each other, Stars are 6-4 last 10 vs Colorado and 3-2 last 5 games played. Stars missing 3 top forwards, but have been playing well despite their absence. Like the Stars at + money here.

    PHILADEPHIA AT ANAHEIM

    FLYERS 3-2 LAST 5 while ANAHEIM JUST 2-3 LAST 5 played. Flyers are very solid 4-1 last 5 vs Anaheim + 7-3 last 10. Ducks return home after a 2-2 road trip with wins against Montreal + Winnipeg and losses to Toronto + Ottawa. Anaheim will be without defensemen Gudas who is serving a suspension. Flyers are getting healthier and have been playing better lately. Think Flyers feel confident in this spot, and a worth a sprinkle as a slight underdog here.

    @mr_armchair_qb

     i have a question about the Ducks game, looks like a situational play on the Over here and wouldn't you know its @ 6.5.

    the situation being first home game back from the road is always high scoring for them this season except for last game.

     

    the question is on total bets in NHL, does the shootout count if it goes to that?

     

    nice job btw, enjoy reading your insights
