This is the first pick of the day:

Toronto Maple Leafs @ Calgary Flames:

After losing back to back games, Flames improved and they have won three games in a row. They were very solid against the Oilers in their latest game. Flames played very strict hockey and they shut out the Oilers until the last minute of the game. Oiler's single goal at the end did not help them in any way. I liked how the Flames players followed the puck and did not give Oilers many scoring chances. That's how you win hockey games.

Leafs had beaten the Penguins last Sunday which was the surprise of the weekend but they failed to repeat it in Edmonton on Wednesday. They looked lifeless and they ended up losing the game 3-1. ->Read more »

Outcome: 

Atlanta Thrashers @ Boston Bruins:

Third time these teams meet this season. First two games were won by the Boston Bruins with the most recent one only 7 days ago played at the TD Garden. Bruins had won that one 6-4.In the last 10 meetings between the Thrashers and the Bruins, Bruins have been dominant. Boston Bruins have won 9 of these 10 games and their powerplay rocked in this span. 33.3% powerplay performance against the Thrashers has been the key in success. Only one week ago it has been no different. 2 powerplay goals on 5 attempts brought the 6-4 victory. ->Read more »
