It's Smashville Night With RA's Gambling Corner Feat. Murls
I can certainly dig going 7-0 across two nights of the Corner. The Canucks did exactly what I expected them to do last night with a warped line and spanked the Leafs. So we easiliy cashed +240 on the money line and +550 on the puck line. Now that we have a nice nest egg going into Hump Day, we can have some fun tonight without going nuts.
Chicago and Nashville have been going in different directions lately and Juuse Saros has been one of the hottest goalies in the league over the last month or so. If Saros gets the start for the Preds tonight, then we are on Nashville money line -135 and a smaller play on -1.5 +190.
Cam Talbot has owned the Coyotes this season and Darcy Kuemper has not owned the Wild. So we're also on Minny money line -155 and a taste on -1.5 +160. We're also throwing in an Action Reverse with NAS -1.5 +190 & MIN -1.5 +160.
Good luck to all.

Nashville Preds @ Chicago Blackhawks (ML+107, O/U 5.5)
Murls Take: Hump Day woo woo! This is the night you gotta pick up some steam and get wins so you can bet this weekend. Been one of the Corner's best teams all year, I like the spot here for Nashville. They are playing great and it seems like ages ago that they were going to tank. I do not think they have the team to make a really deep run but they should beat a Hawks team that has come down to earth and are playing the backup in the net. This is tough because I lean toward one big party city but Chicago is no slouch either.
Murls Pick: Preds 5, Hawks 3
Murley's Best Bet: Preds ML -130 and sidecar on the over 5.5
