I wish I would of had more time to post my thread in the afternoon but being a Financial Planner in these last days of RRSP season, there are always last minute people that wait for the last minute to take care of their contributions... OK... let's focus on hockey a little bit!

NY Rangers +.5 (+125)
NY Rangers (+170)
Now that they're healthy, the Rangers are now a dangerous team to meet for any opponent. Of course, they still lack the defensive side that any contending team must have to even think about celebrating in June but their offensive is explosive. They have showed signs of that lately beating two pretty good teams in Minnesota and Anaheim. They had another defensive lapse against the mighty hot Avs last game but dominated that game in shot on goal while Roy was named the 1st star of the game. If they can have average defense in this game they should be able to come out with a win against the Devils tonight.

On the Devils front, they have won their last two games against teams that are struggling: Boston and Pittsburgh. Not alot to boast about. Since their recent long winning streak, they have come down to earth a little going 4-4-1 during that span. They are not playign their best hockey. Perfect position for them to get knocked off by a team on the surge. At this price, great value for the Rangers who have a godo chance of coming out with a win.

TY TTM$!

Adding...

Philadelphia (-135)
The Flyers a pretty charged up Florida team on Saturday and we're beaten after outshooting them 46-29. Luongo was the story (pretty much is when the Panthers win)! The Flyers are a team that is playing well of late. They did minor tweaking on their lines for tonight and they look good heading into this one.

The Blackhawks on the other hand are going in the opposite direction. They are not the team they once were earlier this season. Part of the reason has been the ordinary play of Thibault. Another reason would be the uninspired play of Fleury. I also believe that Mironov's departure to NY hurt them as well. I don't see them getting out of their slump against the Flyers.

BTW, I was digging up some info that I found very interesting and I thought I would share. Florida is the tallest team in the NHL after Philly. I had no idea!
