Today's pick is on Edmonton Oilers

The team is finally coming back home after long and exhausting road trip. The familiar surroundings (Rexall Place) should do some good.
Avalanche played yesterday at Calgary and won for 2nd time this season at Pengrowth Saddledome 3-2. Certainly, they will be tired, but also upbeat after the successful road game.
It's the 2nd visit to Edmonton this season. The first one ended in a confident 3-0 win. Overall, Colorado has won last 3 road games at Edmonton. Will Oilers find a way to break a bad spell?

Best price on Edmonton: 1.81 WBX, on Colorado 2.2 Ladbrokes

My pick: 3 points on Edmonton @ 1.84 Betfair

Trailing 2-4 close to the end of 2nd period, Edmonton scored 3rd to make it 3-4. 3rd period was all about Oilers, 6-4 final score, +2.52 points!

Friday night:

I think it's a good idea to beat on Boston Bruins. Buffalo lost 2-6 to Florida on Wednesday and Boston must be in good mood after good performance at Atlanta. Moreover, 2.50 offered by Ladbrokes obliges!

2 points stake


Hard, but nevertheless WIN for Bruins. Good game and +3 in points profit. Risks are always worth taking if the odds are reasonable.

Current record:
21 W / 18 L, +11.76 in profit, 72 points staked

Today I'm putting my money on Toronto Maple Leafs for the 3rd time this season. The previous two times the team has disappointed me (1-2 home loss to Ottawa and another 1-2 overtime loss to Tampa Bay). Since then, the things have been changing. There have been 5-1 home demolition over Detroit Red Wings, 2-5 loss to Minnesota and most recently 2-1 shootout win over Washington Capitals. Don't forget the wicked 5-6 shootout loss at Carolina, when Toronto scored with 30 seconds left in regulation to claim what it looked like a final 5-4 win. However, Carolina tied the game with 3 seconds left. How cool is that?
Islanders are looking much better this season, but the question is if they'll manage to keep the pace all the season long and won't fall apart like they did in last season. Right now, NY has lost 2 in a row.
All thing considered, Toronto can deal with Islanders. I also believe they are able to win  in 60 minutes.

2 points on Toronto to win in regulation @ 2.30 Expekt LOSS, -2

Total Maple Leaf domination in shots (61 to 21) which has not transformed to success. 3-4 loss in overtime.
