Dont expect a lot of fireworks between the Coyotes and Bruins

Not many people think offense when they hear the Boston Bruins or the Phoenix Coyotes and they have good reason.

In the previous eight meetings between the Phoenix and Boston, the teams have gone under seven times including their one meeting earlier this season. The last nine times the Bruins and the Coyotes battled in the desert they've stayed under the puckline all nine times.

The Coyotes themselves are also going under at an 80 percent rate in their past 10 games.

Phoenix and Boston open with a puckline of 5.5.


Flames have been dominant in the battle of Alberta

The battle of Alberta has lost it's teeth over the past few seasons, with the games between the Calgary Flames and the Edmonton Oilers being for bragging rights alone. It also helps that the Flames have dominated the series.

In the past 27 meetings between the Flames and Oilers, Calgary has a 20-7 record. When the teams play in the Rexall Place, the Flames own a 7-2 record in the past nine and have taken the past three straight.

Let's add in the fact that the Oilers own the worst home record in the Western Conference, third worst in the NHL, at it looks like the Flames may continue their hot trend against their Albertan rival.

The Flames (+125) will look to keep control in the series against the Oilers (-135) Saturday.


Goal scoring lamps in jeopardy when Sens and Stars meet

Between a combination of mediocre goaltending and terrible defense, the Ottawa Senators are the top Over team in the NHL with 41-27-1. The Dallas Stars like to score too, holding the third highest O/U record in the West (35-29).

The Sens have gone Over in five of their past six games and the Stars have an O/U record of 6-1 in their past seven at home. The past 12 games between these two teams, have gone Over eight times.

Expect the goalies to be applying the sunscreen after all the goals scored when Ottawa meets Dallas when they open with a 5.5 puckline Saturday.


Lightning and Penguins put the biscuit in the basket

The Lightning have been scoring at a ridiculous pace during a five-game win streak (4.4 GPG) and have gone over the puckline in their past three. The Pittsburgh Penguins have not been so hot, scoring just 2.8 GPG during five, but meeting the Lightning may be the spark they need.

The past eight meetings between the Lighting and Penguins have seen them top the puckline seven times, including four straight in Pittsburgh. The Penguins also score more at home with four of their past five going Over, and an 18-13-1 O/U record in their barn.

Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay opened with a puckline of 5.5 Saturday.

Leafs looking to end road slump against Devils

The Toronto Maple Leafs are currently in a skirmish within the Atlantic division with rival Montreal, but their road record as of late leaves a lot of be desired.

The Leafs have a mediocre 14-15-4-3 record on the road this campaign, which plays into a cold trend of 9-20 in their last 29 road games. However, Leaf fans and bettors can take solace that it may soon be on the upswing.

Toronto has been dominant against the New Jersey Devils. The Leafs have taken the previous six meetings between the teams and are 4-1 in New Jersey.

The Devils (-137) are strong at home, but Sunday may offer the best chance for the Leafs (+126) to try and get back in the game.
