Sorry for the delay in getting this out. The lines were not published on several games until late in the day.

Keep your head up and stick on the ice, darrell!

**BUFFALO -172 over Atlanta (7:05 Eastern)

Atlanta, 12-15 on the road this season, heads to Buffalo who won seven of nine before the break. At home the Sabres are scroing 3.6 per game while Atlanta gives up 3.4 per game on the road. Buffalo is 25-11 this season vs. teams that allow 3+ goals per game. Buffalo for two stars.

**Boston +185 over CAROLINA (7:05 Eastern)

Boston has taken Carolina beyond regulation in both of the first meetings this year - one overtime and one shootout. Carolina's defense is susceptible, giving up 3 goals per game at home this season and 3.6 per game over their last five before the break, going 2-3 in those games. In their last seven road games, Boston is 6-1 including a win as a +290 dog at Ottawa, a win as a +175 dog at Atlanta and a win as a +186 dog at Philly. Boston with the surprise for two stars.

**St. Louis +230 over EDMONTON (10:05 Eastern)

Another big huge dog here. St. Louis beat Edmonton 5-4 on February 12th right before the Olympic break. It was their third sttraight loss. The Oilers are now just 12-14 this season as a home favorite including 3-7 in the last ten in that role. They are 4-8 vs. bad teams this year (under 40%). Sure they can score but they also allow points by the bucketfull. They gave up 4.4 per game over their last five games. Meanwhile St. Louis was headed in the opposite direction before the break, going 4-1 and averaging 4.2 goals per game. Can St. Louis shock Edmonton again? I think so. Two stars on the Blues.
