Friday game. Very good chance the Blues win outright, but I've been having success taking good teams when rare home dogs on the puckline to avoid some BS overtime or shootout loss. Probably going to take this angle in the playoffs when nearly every game is decided by one goal it seems. Yep, pretty heavy tax on this one (-220 as of now and will only go up tomorrow; shoot, St. Louis might be favored by the morning) but we'll likely find something tomorrow to play it with and knock it down. The Wild are expected to be without winger Matt Boldy (12G, 15A) and defenseman Matt Dumba (7G, 19A). Bad day to be a Matt! Perhaps I won't walk under a ladder or use a chainsaw for the next 24 hours. Minnesota has dropped five straight in St. Louis. Don't care about the Blues W, just get me to OT.
