NHL DAILY PROJECTIONS

BY PROFESSOR MJ

 

 

There are only two games in the NHL tonight. First, the Canadiens will face off with the Sabres in Buffalo, in what figures to be a meaningless game. The Habs have already secured the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference and will play the Rangers in the first round of the playoffs. Carey Price will be the starter in net for Montreal, while Robin Lehner will defend Buffalo’s cage. The Habs will be without Shea Weber and the Sabres won’t have Kyle Okposo on the ice tonight.

The other game features the Rangers in Washington. New York will be resting 4 players who have minor injuries: Rick Nash, Mats Zuccarello, Ryan McDonaugh and Jesper Fast. On Washington’s side, they may also be without their leader in average time on ice, John Carlson. He missed last night’s game and is questionable. The Rangers have won the last 2 meetings in Washington. Lundqvist is 21-10-4 in his career versus Washington, while Holtby has a 7-9-1 record against the Rangers.

Neither game provides a profitable bet. Let’s see the projections nonetheless:
