10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK (REMARKABLE +$19,000 ALL s/ NOV. 1ST!)
(NHL) Ottawa vs. Vancouver,
Total: 6.50 | -120.00 Under
Result: Loss
The set-up: Without question scoring is up across the league. I had a play on the "under" 6.5 goals in the Montreal/Vancouver Game 3 the other night and they entered the third period with just two goals, but that one finished with 7. The Senators have been terrible this year, they're off three straight losses to the Jets and I think they'll have a hard time mustering up much of an offensive attack here either.

The pick: Ottawa will be especially mindful about its defensive play here, as it's allowing 4.0 GPG in the early going. I think the Senators buckle down on that end tonight. Same with the Canucks, who are going through their own defensive and goaltender issues. These are two teams that desperately need to get things figured out on the defensive end and with so much attention being put there by both clubs this evening, we can expect this total to indeed sneak below this posted number once the final horn sounds.

The is a 10* TOTAL OF THE WEEK on the UNDER Senators/Canucks.
