NHL | Hurricanes vs Blue Jackets
Play on: OVER 6 -108

Columbus has allowed 15 goals in  L/3 losses (3 straight), while the Canes have scored 13 goals in their L/3 games all wins. Im betting these averages continue here today and for the home side to do just enough damage offensively to get us over this totals offering.  CAROLINA is 8-1 OVER  in road games after a 5 game unbeaten streak over the last 3 seasons with a combined average of 7.7 gpg scored. The Jackets have averaged 4.9 gpg this season at home , in their L/7 opportunities after losing 3 or more straight games which is the case here tonight. Columbus in their L/223   against mistake free teams - opponents average 4 or less power plays/game over the last 3 seasons have seen a combined average of 6.5 gpg scored.

NHL | Capitals vs Flyers
Play on: Flyers -130 at linepros

Rotation #2 NHL Tuesday Free Play Philadelphia Flyers Money Line -130 vs Washington Capitals @ 7 ET - I will start releasing NHL premium picks again with the start of the NHL playoffs on Saturday. Until then, look for some free plays from me in NHL right here on a daily basis through the final day of the regular season Thursday. In this match-up Tuesday, the key is that the Flyers are still alive in the post-season race but they must win this game plus get a little help. One thing that is already helping Philly in this match-up is that the Capitals are hurting in terms of defensemen plus are in the 2nd game of a B2B. It is a bit of a miracle that the Caps shut out Boston last night considering they had to make use of young defenders. Also, a long-time veteran Carlson had to log nearly 30 minutes of ice team! Washington, in the 2nd game of a B2B, will struggle with fatigue here even though this game is very important to them. Emotion can only take you so far and the hungry Flyers will have the fresher legs in this one plus they have the home ice edge. Philly still needs the Red Wings to lose at Montreal tonight and the Penguins to lose at the Islanders tomorrow. That said, they are helped by those being road games for those teams but they are also hurt by lack of motivation for each of those two hosts. In any event, Flyers do know that nothing else matters if they do not win this game. They need to win in regulation as well so, for those of you with access to the regulation line, you may want to consider that option here. The Flyers are off B2B wins and look like a different team again and they won't stop fighting here. Capitals run out of gas as this game goes on and the Flyers pull away. Free Play PHILADELPHIA -130

NHL | Maple Leafs vs Panthers
Play on: UNDER 6 +104

(#9) Toronto Maple Leafs @ (#10) Florida Panthers - 7:37pm EST 

FREE PICK // Total Under 6.0 (+104) 

When these two teams met back on April 1st, I successfully had a FREE PICK winner on the “over” (6-4 final score.) This time, I'm coming back with the “under.” Like I said in that analysis, nine consecutive games had gone “under” the total when these two teams had met. Obviously, we've seen an “over” now. However, I believe that we'll go back to the “under” trend here. Florida doesn't give up many goals. In fact, they have the second best goals allowed per game in the league. Yes, Toronto scores the second most. But, I think that they'll find it difficult to beat the like of Stolarz, who owns a fantastic 2.03 GAA this season in 26 games/23 starts. Florida has also seen four straight “under's” themselves. The play is on the “under” in the Leafs/Panthers game. 

Score Prediction: 3-1 FLA 

(good until 6.0 -120)
