Ottawa is starting a rookie goaltender. Ray Emery gets his first start, as Patrick Lalime has been pretty shaky lately. Since Atlanta - Ottawa almost always play OVER the total, I recommend Over 6 -125 tonight as a very good play.
I also recommend Ottawa -0.5 -170 . The Sens will be a little more sharp tonight, as Coach Martin has not been amused of late, plus teams generally try harder to help out a rook in the nets.
Also taking Minnesota at DALLAS Over 5 +125 as a stromng play. Seems to me the Stars are allowing at least 4 goals every game since Marty Turco's injury, so it's not a stretch at all to envisage over 5 total games tonight.
I also recommend DALLAS -0.5 -150, as Stars will have reveng on their minds for a recent 4-2 loss back in Minnesota.
Lastly, I'm taking Boston -0.5 -105. My 'ole take-a-team-right-after-it-fires-its-coach angle is something like 5-2 this year, with the two losses being the most recent (Montreal and NYR), so it's time for a win. Plus SJ have obviously thrown in the towel, and are in the middle of a 3-games-in-3-nights boogie.

Three Units
PS: One more: NJ will be looking to pay back the hapless Pens for that 4-1 beating right at the Meadowlands that Pittsburgh somehow gave the Devils a few weeks back. But don't bet it at -0.5 -350 for heaven's sake. Go find a -1.5 or a -2 for some value.
