Premium Pick

Lay -210 on a road team? You bet! This is such a mismatch that we're getting a good value here. Columbus is 5-17. They've won just one game in their last eleven. Colorado's coming off their worst loss of the season and will take out their anger on the hapless Blue Jackets. Columbus is allowing 3.6 goals per game as opponents are converting 12.1% of SOG and 17.1% of power plays. Colorado is 11-0 against poor defensive teams ( >=29 shots on goal, convert >17% pp) over the last 3 seasons. Colorado's high-powered offense will score here. What Colorado needs is an opponent that can't score on their lackluster defense. Columbus scores just 1.8 per game. Road favorites of -200 or higher off a loss are 39-5 over the last 5 seasons. Two stars on the Avs.
