PIT sucks, but they are bound to win a game. They are at home to the panthers who have beaten them 9 in a row, it's a scary stat but just like the match up here, FLA is team that has problems scoring but they do have one of the best goalies in th league right now, PIT does have shot in the game coming off an embarrasing loss to the bruins, 9 in a row doesn't really mean anything in the league anymore like the NYR/NYI game which the rangers owned them and lost two in a row to them.
VAN is coming off an impressive home stand going undefeated and winning their last 5 in a row. MIN is going 3/4 losing to the blackhawks and should have lost to the blues but manage to come back in that game. Garborik is not in the line up and with VAN finally clicking and rembering what this team did to them the first time they met just don't see them srewing this up.
PHI have won 3 in a row and has beaten MON 8 out of the last 10 meetings. They had a whole week off til they faced the leafs and when they got their legs under them they killed the leafs in the 3rd. MON is coming off a win against the isles but they just don't seem to be playing good hockey against good teams. They have beat mediocore teams with the exception of TOR but that's not saying much cause TOR should have won that game. The line of forsberg, gagne and knuble is lighting it up and just the flyers are going to be flying in this game tonight.
ANA is coming off a win against PHO and the kings are coming off a loss to CAL which they had a two goal lead and just couldn't close the deal. This is more of a gut play with odds at +180 i'll take it.
