9 games yesterday.
The Stars beat the Avalanche 7-4 to widen their gap for top spot in the Central. They now have a 5 point lead. The Blues beat the Ducks 6-5 in a shootout and are in 9th and 5 points back. The Rangers beat the Habs and now have a 3 point lead over the Stars for top spot in the league.
The Wings beat the Sabres 3-1, the Sens beat the Caps 3-2 in overtime, the Preds beat the Devils 3-2 in a shootout and the Canes shutout the Jackets 3-0. It’s going to be a fight in the East. I love it!
Only 2 tonight.
Penguins vs Leafs Betting Tips:
As we saw in their last game, the Pens core refuses to give up. They beat the Lightning 5-4 and Malkin scored twice, Crosby and Letang both scored and even Karlsson chipped in with 3 assists. They are on a 4 game win streak.
The Leafs can’t afford to lose many more games as these Pens did them a favor by beating the Lightning on Saturday. They are still in 3rd but have only a 4 point lead over them with a game in hand.
Over the last 10 games the Pens are 6-2-2 and the Leafs are 6-4-0. On the road the Pens are 15-17-7 and at home the Leafs are 21-14-3.
Both teams need points so this should be a good game. It’s not one I’m tipping but should be enjoyable to watch.
Knights vs Canucks Betting Tips:
These teams just played each other on April 2nd and the Knights won that one 6-3.
The Knights have been off since Friday when they blew a 4-1 lead after the 2nd to lose 7-4 to the Coyotes. I’m sure with the time off the team had some time to address that mess and fix it.
The Canucks had a nice lead in the Pacific but it’s down to only 3 points and the Oilers have a game in hand.
Last 10 the Knights are 7-2-1 and the Canucks are 5-5. On the road the Knights are 18-15-6 and at home the Canucks are 25-9-4.
This is another game where both teams need the points.

Don’t bet with real money on my opinions.
I’m a stupid better, who wastes tons of units to gain minimal profits.

I’m having some trouble getting a clear view of these games. I think I’ll gamble a bit.
I’m betting on the underdogs today.
First, let’s try Pittsburgh ML. If they lose, I’ll take Vegas ML with 2 units. If they win, I skip Vegas. I tell you that, so I don’t need to make another post.
Have fun
I take Pittsburgh ML @ 2.35 with 1 unit
