Nhl Hockey Predictions - March 02, 2008
We have one play tonight on the Columbus-Edmonton game...
Today's NHL Hockey Picks:
Game: Columbus at Edmonton (8:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: 4 units on Game Total OVER 5 -120 (risk 4 to win 3.3)
Columbus' playoff hopes are waning. They need to win to have a hope and we think they will find a way to get 2 to 3 goals here tonight. Edmonton should have no trouble adding enough to push this one to 6+ goals as they Oilers are averaging 3.6 goals per game over their last five. They are allowing 3.8 per game over that span. LeClaire is a very good goalie, often drawing low totals. But, Edmonton is 10-3 OVER this season vs. good starting goalies (those averaging 91.5%+ save rate). The Oilers are also 21-12 OVER off an OVER this season and 18-6 OVER after allowing 4+ goals.

Nashville has gone UNDER just once in their last nine games while Buffalo has gone OVER in three straight. Both offenses are clicking while the defenses are playing poorly. We like for that trend to c...
