After lots of capping and thinking (hopefully not overthinking), here are my plays:
After a tiring defeat in NY (3-1 to the Rangers) the Caps travel to Buffalo to face the Sabres, who finally shook off the rust and beat lowly Thrashers convincingly. Their probable starter between the pipes will be Brent Johnson, who has a solid record against Buffalo, but is still their 2nd choice goalie, behind club legend Olaf Kolzig who was in net last night.
I'm sure we'll see a lot of scoring here, I'm not laying the chalk with Buffalo after all, I was leaning -1,5 @ 2.30 but I'll skip it and take the over 6.5 instead.
Ovechkin and co. should be able to pose a threat for the Sabres who haven't had a wonderful time killing their penalties so far, and the Sabres will try to ride the momentum from their last win. Expecting a 6-4 kind of game.
Sabres - Capitals over 6 goals (1.91 @ Pinnacle)
At first I wanted to take Toronto as they're riding a convincing breakout win of their own (similar as Buffalo) but I'm not sure in their defense, and I'm not sure they have the necessary consistency as of yet.
The Pens on the other hand, I'm a big fan of. Not so much the franchise but this generation of mega-talents (Staal, Crosby, Malkin, Fleury...).
The thing is, Crosby is playing with a slight injury, Staal still hasn't recorded a point, Malkin isn't playing well, these guys are still not clicking. When they finally do, beware. I do expect them to score on Toskala and shaky Leafs' D more than once tonight. I would also expect Toronto to be able to work through Fleury who hasn't been great so far.
Leafs - Pens over 6.5 goals (1.94 @ Pinnacle) 5 units
The Rangers have had some solid games and also some very bad ones. They have considerable talent, but they also have some older players who aren't playing the way they used to, which is rather normal. They managed to overcome the Caps last night but I'm not so sure whether they can play as successfully on b2b against (so far) league's top team.
The Senators are coming off a home loss against the Canes, but I like their chances of bouncing back in Madison Square Garden tonight.

Good luck guys. :cheers:

I'm down for anything really, find me a nice doggy and I'll play it.
