The Plays:
BOS @ NJD
I’m sorry but, playing in NJ, BOS or a neutral site there is no way Boston should be an underdog here. Devils are not the same team as they were last year, and Boston is proving last year’s record setting run was no fluke in the regular season, so i will keep it short and simple, run not walk to grab the B’s at plus money in a rare opportunity.
The Play: BOS +110
BUF @ COL
Breaking down a matchup I look at many things, one is surface value, who is better (Avs’) in this case. Up next is the goalie matchup, again the Avs’s have the edge. Next is taking those two and seeing where there is value. The ML shows no value at -210, and giving 1.5 is at plus money but at 140 just isn’t as enticing. There is some value in the O/U on the under with Georgiev projected to be in net. Overall though tonight’s nightcap again will be a pass.
The Play: Pass
