This game is at least ok to bet because one team day-by-day match. This time Los Angeles is going to play its second game in two nights. I have register in last few days three similar games.
Toronto played in New York Rangers 2-7 and following day vs. Colorado at home 1-4. In the same situation was Anaheim with win after shootout in Philadelphia but following night they lost in New York Rangers 0-3. And the third example is Calgary Flames. Calgary lost 5-6OT in Chicago and following night they were beaten by Colombus at away 1-2.
Three examples three loses for team playing day-by-day. Three time teams were playing under 5,5 goals (two times under 3,5 goals). And teams playing day-by-day had scored only 2 goals all together.
Los Angeles had played very well last night in New York, but Henrik Lundqvist was excellent. The game was tight untill end and players of LAK had couple chances to score in powerplays at last ten minutes. Most of imoprtant players played huge ice time either in play withouth goalie in last couple minutes. They should be pretty tired today vs. Detroit Red Wings. Either they had very high activity in shooting (36 shots) and they overshooted NYR 10-1 in last period but lost it 0-1. There should be more ice time for third and fourth line today. Yesterday was in net Ersberg, today is expected number one Jonathan Quick.
Most of the home games in history Detroit won over LAK and there should be three important things to say. Detroit had won two of its three games when they came back from Europe. Chris Osgood is not in the same mood as Henrik Lundqvist in NYR, Detroit is missing Johan Franzen (injury) but lost other four forwards from last season (Marian Hossa, Mikael Samuelsson, Tomas Kopecky and Jiri Hudler).
But there is still huge offensive power by Zetterberg, Datsyuk and more skilled players and propably one of the most experiencied defense in the league Lidstrom, Rafalski, Kronwall.
Expekt is offering 1,80 for home win after 60 minutes. As Detroit has to win this game before home fans cos 5 games = 4 points for Detroit and coach Babcock will do everything to beat Jonathan Quick by his players more times as it is his average (3,00 GAA and 89,8 SV%). |
