Sunday's NHL

[Ice Picks]

1. Dallas -.5 at Ananheim [+110] - perhaps a bit of revenge here?? **

2. ROAD TEAMS +2.5 [Olympic] [-120] - it seems to me that all road teams today are capable of a win. Yesterday, roadies won 6 of 9 tilts.

3. NYR/Pittt Over 5.0 - 2 previous games were 1-0 and 4-1 in favor of Pitt. Those were without Lemieux. NYR are 30th in PK, and with Lemieux, Pitt's PP is much better than their listed 30th in the league. Question - why is NYR listed as favorites when they have yet to beat the Pens this year??? Early in the year NYR boasted the #1 PP, but have dropped to 19th.
I see Pens 4 - Rangers 4

4. Isles -.5 at Minny [-125] - this may be TOO obvious, so tread lightly, and use Columbus's win at Detroit as an example. Due to Minny's 6-0 whitewash by Colorado, they will be loaded for bear, but they just can't score goals - 2 goals L4 games. Minny beat Isles 2X last year, but the Isles are much improved this year, and hold a significant advantage in specials teams and goal. Also this is Minny's 4th game in 6 nights, so fatigue may factor in.

May be back later with some late games...

Good luck...IP

Add:

5. San Jose [ML] vs. Canes
[here I go again with the Canes curse]

Canes playing 4th game in 6 nights...5th, 7th, 8th, 10th..perhaps a bit tired...did not work with Minny game today, which had the same schedule, but they were at home...

I couldn't pull the trigger on the Dallas-Anaheim game...neither team inspires me to risk $ on 'em

Good call on the over in Pitt-NYR...nice second period made all the O's happy.

I wish I had considered the angle that Nick Douglas mentioned in his post when cappin' the NYI game. You said it right...."NYI was the obvious pick but tread lightly...Minny was loaded for Bear" after an embarrassing loss. Same thing happened with Philly and St. Louis.

I am on San Jose too...hope to recover a bit from the NYI play.

Go Buffalo Go! Objectively looks like a play with good value.

Sun RECAP

Sun RECAP

1. Dallas 5 - ANA 1 [Won] - was a reversal of last game at Dallas when ANA beat them badly in the first game under Dallas's new head coach. Dallas' record since new coach at Dalls 2-1-1. At LA Monday.

2. Road Team [Lost 18.5 - 20] - went against my own "pendulum" theory, as yesterday roadies won 6 of 9 and I should have expected the home teams to bounce back. Sabres and Carolina failed to appear tonight...today it was 4-2 homers

3. NYR/PIT Over 5. [Won 4-3]

4. Isles 3 - Minny 4 [Lost] - I thought this looked too easy...and I saw too late the angle Nick D played in this position. I still usually go with the better team. Watch NYI next game!!

5. San Jose 4 - Carolina 0 [won] - Carolina is pretty banged up right now, and you could also see the fatigue not enough healthy bodies to go around...also coat-tailed Tiger on the Dallas/Anaheim over...Thanks, oh stripped one

Posted:
DAY: 3-2 for +1.25 units
WEEK: 13-9 for +2.95 units

5 games on Monday - lets get em again...good night...IP
