10* DIV. TOTAL OF YEAR - OFF 4-1 SAT!
(NHL) Colorado vs. Minnesota,
Total: 6.50 | -120.00 Under
Result: Loss
10* UNDER Avs/Wild (CENTRAL DIVISION TOY)

The stars and the planets have aligned here for an early season play of this magnitude. Colorado is 1-1. It beat Chicago 5-2 in its Opener, and then fell 5-3 at Calgary. Both games have gone "over" the number. Minnesota will be desperate here, as it enters at 0-2. It lost 7-3 at home to the Rangers, and then 7-6 here to the Kings just last night. I expect Minnesota to risk life and limb today to try and get into shooting and passing lanes tonight as it tries to get the monkey off its back. Both teams have good starting goaltenders and backups, but neither has received very good play from those units yet. Yet, though is the word we need to concentrate on here. As I eluded to off the top, this is a great "situational" play, so whoever gets the start in net tonight, I believe the numbers and the overall situation point to a very tight defensive affair in this one; the play is the "under!"
