It was a 1-0 night last night with the NHL Tips, as the Tampa Bay Lightning delivered.
Some real good games yesterday. How about those Panthers? My god 9-2. What a team. Then the Leafs/Blues in a thriller.
Oilers getting thumped at home by the Sens too 6-4. Sens man – like I said yesterday, lot of big road wins.
Today we’ve got just the one game so I guess let’s look at it:
Capitals vs Canucks:
Caps decent favourites at 1.54 odds.
Coming in on a B2B after that solid 2-0 victory over the Islanders and are at home. They don’t really perform any better at home than they do away.
Canucks on the roead where they are 8-11-2.
Caps haven’t had too many B2Bs this season but they’re decent enough on the 2nd leg.
Canucks come in on a bad run having lost their last 3 in regulation, all by 2+ goals. But I mean that’s the Canes, Tampa and Florida.
Unfortunately, the Capitals are another good team. Canucks are on another B2B as well. Halak had to enter COVID protocol.
I think Caps probably cover in regulation. But they have been so spotty in January so far, that I find it hard to back them. I’ll probably regret not backing them but I jump back and forth from them handing out a pounding, to this being a big letdown spot. That can be such a tricky team to back at times.
No bet. But if I were it’d be Caps in reg.
Hello Greame and other people 😉 Maybe back to some picks from Ahl,Khl and Whl?? Greetings from Poland 😉
Probably not until COVID stops wreaking havoc with schedules/teams
