YTD:
1% = 39-32-5 (+6.76 units)
3% = 0-1 (-3.45 units)
5% = 0-0 (1 play pending)
ottawa - X - 160 (win +1.0)
i know, i know, heavy favorites are the kiss of death. Add to this fact that Ottawa played last night & stunk it up against the Flyers & that they have not been playing well as of late & one may wonder, why in hell would I take this number?
Well first of all i am from Ottawa so my opinion is skewed somewhat, but I do have to beleive that one of the heavy favorites to win the cup can turn things around against Nashville. Also beleive that Prusek will be in the nets for Ottawa as it is unlikely Lalime will play back to back after a loss & a fight. Now management has said that Lalime is their man for the playoffs, but you can bet that Prusek is motivated to try to steal that job away. I also beleive the team has more confidence in Prusek will rally around him. If he preforms on top of his game or better yet gets a shutout...we will definately have a goaltending controversy here in Ottawa.
Both teams are playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, however the sens are coming off back to back games.
