AAA's 10* COAST-TO-COAST TOTAL "ART OF THE GAME!" (*Signature Pick!*)
(NHL) Ottawa vs. Calgary,
Total: 5.50 | -105.00 Over
Result: Loss
This is a 10* TOTAL ART OF THE GAME on the UNDER between the Ottawa Senators and the Calgary Flames.

Both teams have played to some high-scoring games this year (including against each other), but I feel that the conditions are finally right for a lower-scoring goaltender battle and definitely feeling we're getting great value on the UNDER here. Calgary is coming off a 5-3 win over Arizona on Thursday, giving the team ten wins in 18 games: "Hearing that, that's something we can build off of and keep continuing to progress and hopefully get better and improve on it," Flames' defenseman Kris Russell said yesterday. The Sens are completing a three-game trip against Western Conference Canadian foes, most recently escaping Edmonton with a 4-3 effort on Thursday, lucky as Ottawa would need an OT winner after blowing a 3-0 lead. But luckily for the Sens, they have Craig Anderson between the pipes; Anderson faces 36 shots per game, but has posted a league-best .942 save percentage thus far (note that Anderson is 3-0-2 with a 1.73 GAA this month). The home side counters with Karri Ramo, who has struggled a bit of late, but note that Calgary has seen the total go UNDER the number in 25 of its last 41 non-conference contests, while Ottawa has seen it dip below the posted number in eight of its last ten after playing to three consecutive OVERS. The situation, the numbers and the trends are all indeed pointing to the UNDER as the sharp move in this one.
