10* EAST-COAST TOTAL EXPRESS (BIG ONE!)
(NHL) Buffalo vs. Montreal,
Total: 6.00 | -115.00 Under
Result: Loss
10* UNDER (EXPRESS)

Which team does this game MEAN more to? Both teams are tanking, and the one with the worst record at the end of the season is going to get the first pick in the draft. Buffalo is 14-24-7-1, while Montreal is 8-32-7. Each club is now officially "tanking" the rest of the way. Both struggle on the offensive end, and on the defensive end. So why is today's contest going to stay "under" the posted number? Note that Buffalo has seen the total to "under" in 5 of its last 6 off an extra time home loss in which the total eclipsed the posted number (lost 4-3 in OT to Columbus), while Montreal has seen the total go "over" in 6 of its last 8 home games following a home loss in which it was held to 1 or less goals in (lost 2-1 to Columbus.) Montreal lost 4-1 to Buffalo in late November, and I can't see these teams reaching that many goals this time around; this number is high, the play is the under!
