The Slapshot – Feb 6th

A near full slate of action as teams return post the all-star break tonight.  There were four teams in action on Monday night and of them only the Avalanche are forced to play B2B tonight as they go from the Garden down into the Garden state to take on the Devils.

I prefer one offs tonight because I don’t see one particular line having themselves a heavy night.

AVALANCHE

MacKinnon – Drouin – Rantanen (Also dont mind Miles Wood returning to New Jersey as a one off value)

When teams are on long layoffs, I usually give a big advantage to the team who just skated in real, live action the night before.  Throw on that the Devils defense is prime for the picking and we have a worthy spot to pay up on Colorado

PANTHERS

Barkov – Rodrigues – Reinhart

STARS

Hintz – Robertson – Johnston

  1. Adin Hill (Vegas) … Nobody hated the all-star break more than Edmonton, who is looking to stay hot after the layoff and doing such against the defending champs who are not over their hangover and ready to turn it on.  Lock and load on Vegas ML tonight at +125, even without Eichel still, they will have to do it with good goaltending.
