MONEYLINE: 24-12 (1-4)
O/U: 12-18-6 (3-2-0)
7:00PM - WASHINGTON CAPITALS VS SAN JOSE SHARKS (JONES VS HOLTBY)
I believe every time the Sharks and Caps play, it turns into a high scoring affair. I think a lot of us remember last year's affair when the Caps were down 3-0 early after John Scott (really, of all people) beat Holtby top shelf to chase him from the game, only for the Caps to claw back from 4-1 to make it 4-3 and then send it into OT with under 5 minutes remaining. If you don't, sorry, but I do because I went with my buddy Sam who is currently at Stanford. Sam will be in town next year.
I think this is how we felt after the Caps went down by 3 goals. Damn, my face is chubby, that double chin was really noticeable. Sam is the knock-off Harry Potter. And there's an indian guy behind me who couldn't care less about this game.... Anyways, going with my buddy Jeff this year, he's a sharks fan an all I've received from him is shit about John Scott chasing Braden Holtby out of the game.
As for the jersey above, I purchased it at Dick's over the summer when it was on sale (~$91 after taxes). It doesn't have a Stadium Series patch (which needs to be added on), but it was a sweet deal, so I had to take it. The kit was heat-pressed, so I have to be a little more careful with it so that it doesn't peel off at some point (like what happened to my old Ovechkin jersey, which is also signed and deserves to be framed because my mom helped stitch the crest back on). The jersey I wore at the Stadium Series last year was my Pavelski jersey, but I'll wait til March to bring out the dueling 8's.
UPDATE: Ovechkin may or may not play, but I can't betray my confidence in the Caps
MONEYLINE: CAPS O/U: 5.5 goals (OVER)
The Predators are a stingy team defensively, and not yet clicking on all cylinders offensively. The Devils just suck and got lucky they scored 3 goals against the Caps. As long as Rinne is in net, I'm going with the Preds. I subtly made the reference that I changed by mind during the day since Schneider is out and Kinkaid is in. Expect a big night for the Preds offensively.
MONEYLINE: PREDS O/U: 5 goals (
7:00PM - MONTREAL CANADIENS VS PITTSBURGH PENGUINS (PRICE VS FLEURY)
Carey Price is fully rested after taking another 2 days offs. (Wednesday to Saturday to Tuesday). And the Penguins can't seem to figure out how to score. Sure they got one against the Coyotes, but they should've lit them up instead! The Habs have finally figured out how to score goals and not rely on Carey Price to win them games by standing on his head.
MONEYLINE: HABS O/U: 5 goals (UNDER)
7:00PM - WINNIPEG JETS VS NEW YORK RANGERS (HUTCHINSON VS LUNDQVIST)
The Jets are starting to get fatigued after starting the season with 4 games on the road. The Rangers are going to be the most difficult to beat for them, and very unlikely to do so. I think the Jets are gassed and this is going to be a 3-0 or 4-1 loss at most
MONEYLINE: RANGERS O/U: 5.5 goals (UNDER)
7:00PM - FLORIDA PANTHERS VS CAROLINA HURRICANES (MONTOYA VS LACK)
Well, the Panthers had an up and down start to the season, score 7 against Philly at home, then score 0 against Philly on the road. At least Philly was consistent scoring one goal each game. On the other hand, the Hurricanes take on the Panthers at home (who went 3-0 against them last year), but instead of Luongo, Al Montoya is in net.
MONEYLINE: HURRICANES O/U: 5 goals (OVER)
