Some really great games yesterday. One day after the Bruins destroyed the New York Rangers, they struggled to a shootout victory against the Winnipeg Jets. The Flames continued to lack the team cohesion which is needed, and the Leafs did what they do best – lose.
Today we have a lot of interesting games. My Habs are at home to the Florida Panthers. We got hammered by Florida every meeting last year, so I’m not looking forward to that one. All eyes will be on the Devils vs Flyers – Philly have lost 2 and the last thing a team needs in a limited season is to start off on a losing streak. Then every game becomes “must-win” which can really affect the nerves. And we have an interesting game in Colorado as the Kings visit the Avalanche and we get to see how the Kings hold up without Matt Greene in D.
Hurricanes vs Lightning Betting Tips: Lightning To Win
The Tampa Bay Lightning will be looking to bounce back, and bounce back fast after their loss against the New York Islanders. That was a bizarre game where it wasn’t until the game was over, with the Islanders up 4-0, that the Lightning actually seemed to calm down and play.
As they travel to Carolina, they’ve had time to work on their game plan and figure out what went wrong in New York. Lightning are a better team than the Hurricanes, and we’re getting some really nice reactionary betting odds due to the 4-0 drubbing the Lightning were on. Take the Tampa Bay Lightning to win the game – you can get +115 odds at Bodog.ca.
Panthers vs Canadiens Betting Tips: Panthers To Win
Last season as mentioned, the Panthers schooled the Habs in every game they played. I really don’t see things being different here. The bookies have the Habs at good favourites – but that’s a mistake. Home advantage is not a factor here – did you SEE how fast the Habs fans turned on them against the Leafs? With the drama over PK continuing, the Habs fans are NOT the sort of fans you want to be against at the moment.
The Panthers put in a bad performance against Ottawa, but the long travel didn’t help and the Senators this season are looking nice and organized. So hop on over to Bet365 (Americans: We recommend http://www.bovada.lv where we’re getting fantastic +135 odds on the Panthers money line. This is an absolute steal of a bet with tremendous value that you just can’t beat.
Flyers vs Devils Betting Tips: Over 5.5 Goals
Flyers are on an 0-2 streak at the moment. While you might expect a solid, professional performance from the Flyers as they bounce back – this limited season means things are going to be a lot different. The Flyers look like they are struggling from the pressure at the moment and are unable to defend a lead – something that suits the New Jersey Devils well. Just ask David Clarkson.
There is going to be a lot of goals in this game. Clarkson is running with momentum, and the Flyers are all over the place – especially the defense. Giroux is also looking good when it comes to goals. I recommend betting Over 5.5 goals – you can currently get +110 on that over at Titan Bet.
