NHL EVENING D-E-M-O-L-I-T-O-N >> 74-50 ON THE SEASON <<
(NHL) Winnipeg vs. Philadelphia,
Money Line: -130.00 Winnipeg (Away)
Result: Loss
The set-up: Despite a 4-2 road loss vs. the Stars in its final game before the break, I think Winnipeg will bounce back here in this favorable matchup in its first game back after the All Star game. The Flyers on the other hand look poised for a predictable letdown here after the lay off and from their latest 5-2 road win in Montreal. Overall Winnipeg is 13-9 on the road though, averaging 3.05 goal and allowing 2.91 in those instances. The Flyers are only 10-13 at home though, averaging 2.83 goals and allowing 3.26.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well, but Philadelphia is just 3-13 in its last 16 after scoring five goals or more in its previous game, while Winnipeg is 25-9 in its last 34 vs. the Eastern Conference. I'm banking on the Jets coming out flying to start the second half. Lay the short price.
