Guys,
After a long sabatical, which I don't want to get into,we are back to try to make some money.
We will start over clean and pressed, ready for action.
Let's get to it:
VANCOUVER -0.5 +105 Ov 5 +100
CHICAGO +0.5 -125 Un 5,-120
Tuesday night (8:30 EST) at the United Center.
GOALTENDERS: VANCOUVER - DAN CLOUTIER
CHICAGO - JOCELYN THIBAULT
The Blackhawks take on the team with the best road record,Vancouver.
Chicago had its undefeated string of four games (3-0-1) ended Sunday at the hands of the Stars. After scoring at least three goals in four straight games, the Hawks were blanked by Dallas (5-0) and were held to one goal in the tie with Buffalo (1-1).The Blackhawks, who allowed five goals for the fourth time this season, were shut out for the second time.
Alexei Zhamnov, continues to Pace the scoring (7-19=26) while Steve Sullivan leads in goals (9-12=21). Jocelyn Thibault's goals against average slipped to 2.09 after Sunday's loss, which still ranks him among the top five regulars in the NHL.
The Vancouver Canucks will be shorthanded,Defenseman Mattias Ohlund and center Trevor Linden were injured in the team's 3-3 tie with Calgary on Sunday. Ohlund hurt his left knee and Linden suffered a deep gash above his right eye when he was hit by a teammate's stick. Linded is expected to be out for a week.The Canucks who rank 6th on the power play and first in penalty killing while Chicago's power play is at the bottom. The Hawk penalty killers rank 9th.
Vancouver boasts the top goal scorer, Markus Naslund (21-17=38), who has five goals in his last two games, and Todd Bertuzzi (15-20=35). Both rank fourth and fifth in league scoring. Dan Cloutier has been strong in goal (17-7-3, 2.32 goals against average) and leads the NHL in wins.
The Canucks, who are 2-0-1 over their last three contests.
Chicago had gone 3-0-1 over its previous four games before getting blown out by Dallas on Sunday, 5-0, in the opener of a five-game homestand.The BlackHawk's defense was bolstered by the return of Alexander Karpovtsev after his ankle injury, and veteran newcomer Mike Eastwood has been solid on faceoffs in the two games he has played since being claimed off waivers from St. Louis.
The Canucks posted a 5-3 home triumph over the Blackhawks on November 20.
Stats:
Vancouver is 11-2-2 on the road
27.1 SOG with a 3.3 GGA.
Opps: has a 2.1 GGA on 27.7 SOG
Chicago is 9-5-1 at home
2.5 GGA on 27.5 SOG
Opps: 2.1 GGA on 24.3 SOG
The PPG, are the real story here:
Vancouver (ROAD) is clicking at 14/71 at 19.4%
Opps: is at 10/79 12.7%
cHICAGO: (HOME) is at 10/68 14.7%
Opps: is at 7/64 10.9%
It all boils down to goals:
In 15 Home games Chicago is at 38 goals.
Vancouver on the Road has 50 goals in 15 games.
Both Goalies are playing very good, at around 92.5 Save %.
With both teams, off yesterday to rest, we see this as a tight-tough game.
But we are going with the extra offense in Vancouver to get the win.
So ... make the play:
Vancouver -.5 +105
**************************************************
Parlay Play:
DALLAS -0.5 +125 Ov 5 +115
PHILADELPHIA +0.5,-145 Un 5 -135
GOALTENDERS: DALLAS - MARTY TURCO
PHILADELPHIA ROMAN - CECHMANEK
Philadelphia Flyers coach Ken Hitchcock faces his former club for the first time Tuesday night when the Dallas Stars visit the First Union Center.
Hitchcock led the Stars to five straight division titles and the franchise's only Stanley Cup championship in 1999, but was fired last January 25.This will another good game, and I would have to believe that Hitchcock will turn-up-the-heat on Dallas.
But the biggest thing that stands-out is:
That through all of November and through today, The Fylers have only totaled 5 goals one time at the First Union Center.
(Known as the FU Center to us Philadelphians)
and that was a New York Rangers Win (OT) 3-2.12/5.
And .... the Stars are 0-2-4 in their last six trips to Philadelphia
So ...without going into too much detail.
We are going to ride that train!
Make the play ... Under 5 -135
try to shop for a better line, if you can ?
Good Luck to All
and Thank You for supporting me.
