Nashville - Edmonton
Pick: Nashville ML
The Playoffs start soon and the Predators started to roll now and against Edmonton they shouldn`t have much problems.
The Predators have won four of their last five matches, including wins against Boston, Detroit and Buffalo. Nashville scored 17 goals in that span and against the struggling defence of Edmonton they should found again enough ways.
Edmonton has the weakest defence of the league and they are struggling all the way right now, as they are in a scoring slump and still got their huge problems in the defence. The Oilers have been outscored with 18-5 in their last five and especially away from home they allow too many goals (12 goals in their last three away matches).
The Predators shouldn`t stop their run and continue their success lately against the struggling Oilers and win this one with at least two goals.
stake:9/10
Toronto - Philadelphia
Pick: Philadelphia 1X2
Yes the Leafs are on a point streak that has seen them lose in regulation time just once over their last 11 games, including beating Philly in Philly, but I think that the Flyers bounce back tonight in Toronto as both Jeff Carter (back from the flu) and Danny Briere have woken up again to score.
stake:10/10
Anaheim - Colorado
Pick: Anaheim 1X2
This is kind of a must-win-game for the Ducks. They have lost five straight now and if they're going to make the playoffs they really need a win rght now!
I thought they played good in their last game, home aginst the Wild. But even though they shot 48 shots, they only manched to score two goals..
but still, I think they can turn this around and win tonight!
Ducks are 12-4 in last 16 games playing on 1 dags rest.
Avs are 7-25 in last 32 playing on 0 days rest.
Avs are 1-8-1 in last 10 games.
Ducks are 6-1 in last 7 meetings in Anaheim.
