CBUS, playing at Home in second of a B2B - past two seasons 7-4 with eight of those coming in Under 5.5
CBUS, past 20 After an OT game has seen 13 come in Under 5.5
CBUS has only once in almost 100 games scored 9 goals in a two game span. The last time it happened:
10/25/07 - Next game win vs San Jose 2-1
Since beginning of last season, they also have had six times where they scored 8 goals in two game span. Results After:
4-3 Win vs Det
3-1 Win vs Van
1-2 Loss at Ana
3-0 Win vs StL
4-2 Win vs Van
4-3 Win vs Mon
Decent indication that they can string consistent play when they're skating at Home and not in a scoring drought
I will be using them tonight if I can confirm Norrena is starting.

CALGARY since beginning of last season is 5-8 After Scoring 5+
Going back a bit further, they're 2-9 when playing AWAY After Scoring 5+
====
PHIL in the dreaded Isolated Home role where they're 4-20 since beginning of last season. But Bolts have their own severe issues - including Away After Away (7-14); After Allowing 5+ (4-11) - so we're passing the whole shebang
======
BOSTON past 22 as a Home Fave is now 9-13 following the win vs Toronto earlier this week (3-2 this season).
Meanwhile, they're just 1-4 vs Top10 and 2-5 vs Top16 so far this season, while Buffalo is 5-0 and 6-1 vs same. (Both currently listed in Sagarin Top10)
=====
Additional CBUS note...They're 3-4 in 3rdin4s played at Home last season and 7-8 the past two seasons combined.
====
MIN After an Away Win has won but nine in past 24 chances
=====

MON/TOR is chock full of indicators that point to Over 5.5
=====
NASH After Allowing 5+ goals is 2-1 this season and 15-4 going back to beginning of last.
COL After a HomeLoss is a non-rebounding 8-18 After their past 26 (going back almost two years)
=======
DALLAS, though 1-3 this season so far in second of B2B Away, is league's best over past two seasons with an 8-4 mark last year and 8-3 the season before.

No, but seriously...
I've assembled such numbers for past season in full and for about half the teams for such roles going back into the previous season.
It's all in that spreadsheet I sent, though the one I sent you is several weeks old. That's a reminder to me to mail it again (to me as well) so I've got a current version on the Yahoo server in case of disk crash.

It's slowing me down....(although some of my "insights" the past couple of nights have been induced, don't know if that's a good thing).
I've been using the spreadsheet on an elementary level only looking at 0 days rest, 1 day rest, but haven't been sifting through it enough (though appreciated).
MOOSE, pm me your email addy and I'll forward the working version of my sheet which has not yet had 2008-9 numbers added, but has 98% of last NHL season (in the categories I track) and about 50% of previous season (I'm adding it to it as quick as I can). NBA stats also in there and pretty solid for past 3 seasons, though that is also a work in progress

Rookie Steve Mason made 34 saves for his second win in his second straight career start, and could be back in net as Fredrik Norrena continues to deal with a groin injury. Norrena is 1-3-2 with a 3.16 goals-against average this season, and 3-0-0 with a 1.32 GAA versus Calgary.
