Indian Cowboy's Picks For NHL Hockey

3-Unit Play. #61 Take Chicago Blackhawks -120 vs. Phoenix Coyotes (Sunday @ 10:05 p.m. est)
The Chicago Blackhawks are another team that was bounced in the opening round of the playoffs and the Hawks should be back with a vengeance this year. After ruining the LA Kings ring ceremony they get another chance at the Phoenix Coyotes at the Jobing.com Arena, Glendale, Arizona on Sunday Night. This Coyotes team sidelined the Hawks with a (4-2) opening round exit from the postseason to end last year. Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman clearly thinks the team he had in place at the end of last season is good enough. The biggest offseason news for the Blackhawks could be the return to full health of star forward Marian Hossa, who sustained a concussion in Game 3 of Chicago's first-round playoff series on a hard hit from Phoenix's Raffi Torres. Chicago also added a pair of veterans on defense in Sheldon Brookbank and Michal Rozsival. HC Joel Quenneville has a defense considered one of the best in the NHL. The defense features the elite, shutdown tandem of Duncan Keith (45 points, 149 blocked shots) and Brent Seabrook (48 points, 227 hits). The acquisition of veteran D Steve Montador (138 blocked shots), adds plenty of toughness to the back end and he plays alongside the steady Niklas Hjalmarsson (166 blocked shots). The Road team is (5-0) in the last (5) meetings.

Robert Ferringo's Picks For NHL Hockey
3-Units Take #59 Edmonton (+1.30) over Vancouver (9pm, Sunday, January 20th)

The Oilers have youth but more importantly have talented youth in what I think will be a breakout year this squad. They catch a Vancouver team that has been the success story of the Western Conference the last couple of years but a team that I think is very fragile right now. The Canucks will play their first back to back sets of the season after
getting beat last night at home 7-3 at the hands of the Ducks and lost a key player with Ryan Kessler leaving with a injury and won't be in the lineup tonight which isn't good for a lineup already missing some parts. I think Edmonton views this a big game for many reasons and I think Vancouver has some problems that are deeper then people think. Take the youthful and excited team at plus money here.

SPORTS WAGERS - PUCKS

PHOENIX +110 over Chicago


OT included. The Blackhawks' win over the Kings yesterday afternoon was not as convincing as the final score. Chicago ran into a shaky Jonathan Quick and capitalized on the few scoring chances they had. That's not to say they're imposters because offensively, this visitor is scary good. However, the Coyotes defense and goaltending as good as anyone's and this game is not going to be as easy as yesterday's.
The Coyotes opened the season in Dallas and lost 4-3. However, Phoenix deserved a better fate, as they were the better team that carried the play from the start. The Coyotes had a strong season last year and they're going to be even stronger this time around. Led by Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Keith Yandle and the newly acquired, former Coyote Zbynek Michalek, Phoenix's defense doesn't get near the recognition they deserve because of the market they play in. Remember, this is a team that went to the conference finals last year and if guys like Lauri Korpikoski and Mikkel Boedker play to their potential, Phoenix is not going to be as offensively challenged as most think. The Coyotes are going to be a tough out again and as a dog in their own rink, they'll continue to offer up value.


VANCOUVER -½ +111 over Edmonton


Regulation time. So now what? About 27 minutes into his status as the new #1 goalie in Vancouver, Cory Schneider was pulled after allowing five goals and the Canucks were buried by Anaheim 7-3. Relax folks. One game does not make a season and these Canucks are not about to lie down after such a humiliating opener. As a result of that humbling performance last night, the Canucks are undervalued. How could they be a -156 favorite last night against Anaheim and just a -140 favorite over a team they've owned at this venue? Again, it's based on one game and we get to take advantage of that.
The Oilers haven't had this much hype surrounding them coming into a a season since Wayne Gretzky was wearing his famous #99 in an Edmonton uniform. The Oilers are loaded with young talent and the optimism could be warranted. Led by Jordan Eberle, Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Justin Schultz and Nail Yakupov, these kids are primed to make a run. However, it's the first game, they have a new coach and they still have an unproven defense and potentially shaky goaltending. They Oilers also have just one win in Vancouver over their past nine games here and went 1-5 overall in this series last season while being outscored 15-7 in the last four. Have things changed that much? We're not buying that just yet.
