in the 2η their season in the league are proving to be very good and strong. I don't think they will stay out of the playoffs, but even if that happens they will be worthy because last year they finished at the bottom of the ranking and this year they are high. They are not going well now, as I lost again at home 1-2, on penalties, to the mighty Colorado Avalanches and so they have just one (1) win in four (4) matches! They need to improve their performance a bit at home as they are only 10η better harvest points. At 6.5 o'clock of goals in their games. Driedger C. (T.) will not compete today. Schultz J.(A.42comp/5g/19as), Burakovsky A.(E.45com/113g/25ac), Gourde Y.(E.45com/6g/24ac), Schwartz J.(E.40com/10g/13ac ) and Donskoi J.(E.).

They don't look capable of making the playoffs this year, as the teams in the West above them are too strong. They also need to improve their defense. They had just one win (and that one in overtime) in their last eight (8) games before defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 5-2 at home. They are the team with the highest m.o. goals in their games (7.1) and are running a streak of nineteen(19) games that have brought Over4.5 goals in their game! They have absences, but they are somewhat limited now as they are missing Demko T. (T.15/88.31%), Poolman T.(A.3comp/1as), Bear E.(A.35comp/3g/7as), Ferland M.(E.) Lockwood W.(E.13comp/1as)& Pearson T.(E.14comp /1g/4as).
If it wasn't for the home side's absences, I'd clearly go with them. Now I have a little doubt. But I can't help but recognize that they are a better team. No discussion of how many goals will be scored, since the Canadians don't know what defense means. So I'll combine point and goal to lower the stakes a bit. 1&Over4.5.
