Second premium pick today:

St Louis Blues @ LA Kings:

St Louis Blues are coming off their most impressive victory of the season. They were 2-1 down and shorthanded at the HP Pavillion with under a minute remaining and they managed to tie the game only some seconds remaining. They won the game in shoot out and showed what they are capable of.

Kings are also coming off a victory and that came on home ice when they beat the Ottawa Senators 6-3. That was third consecutive victory as they had beaten the Ducks and Chicago Blackhawks before that game. Now they want to make it four wins in as many games when they play at the Staples Center again.->Read more »

Outcome: 

First premium pick for the first game this afternoon,

Vancouver Canucks @ Carolina Hurricanes:

Only 1 regulation win in the last 10 games is the story of the Carolina Hurricanes. The last loss came on home ice against the Washington Capitals. That made 5 losses in a row and today they will take on a hot team that has won 4 out of the last 5. Vancouver Canucks want to keep winning on road as they are coming off back to back victories against the New Jersey Devils and then the Philadelphia Flyers. That last victory in Philadelphia costed Flyers coach John Stevens his job and Flyers management fired him.

Canucks' single loss in last five came against San Jose Sharks. 21 goals in last 5 games show how easily they have been scoring goals. ->Read more »
