(NHL) Vancouver vs. Montreal,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -161.00 Vancouver (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Canucks (10* PUCK-LINE GAME OF THE WEEK).

In a contest which I see being decided late or in extra time, I'm going to lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals. Vancouver started the year 2-5, but it's since won four straight. The Canucks have looked a lot better on the defensie end and I think the oddsmakers are slow in adjusting. The Habs went 0 for 5 on the power play on Saturday in their loss to the Flames. The Canadiens have done better than most thought in the early going, but again let's not overreact to the first two weeks of play. Note that Vancouver is 7-2 in its last nine after a three-games or longer unbeaten streak. Lay the price for the extra 1.5 goals.

T.M. Prediction: 4-2 Vancouver.
