Montreal center David Desharnais scored on a power play with 1:08 left in the game to lift the Canadiens to a comeback 4-2 victory over the Boston Bruins on Saturday night. The goal gave Desharnais seven points in the last five games and 14 for the season, tying him for second of the team. The over is 4-0-1 in the Canadiens last 5 road games.

This is a do or die game for the Lightning, so I am looking for Tampa to open it up a little more here in games six and show more of that scoring we saw in the regular season from them.

Chicago is very lucky to be tied 1-1 in this series, considering their two stars Jonanthon Toews and Patrick Kane have a combined one point in two games. The Blackhawks have been an excellent OVER play in these playoffs, especially at home. The Blackhawks have gone over in five of their last six games and are 4-1-1 O/U in their last six home games.

Both teams have an incredible array of offensive talent. Chicago has had injuries and ineffective play on defense so Coach Quenville has shortened the bench to get by with so few defensemen. Anaheim has tried to take advantage by playing physical and fast to try and wear down the Chicago defense and gain an edge, with mixed results. They will try that again for Game 7, with the over 3-0 the last three games.

This series has had it all, 17 periods of play in just four games, lots of goals and double OT excitement. The Anaheim Ducks can't help but think this series shouldn't be tied 2-2 as we head to game five. The Ducks lost both of those double-Overtime games that could have easily gone their way. Still, the Ducks have yet to lose a playoff game in regulation. This series has had lots of goals, mainly to the short staffed Blackhawks defense. So far in this series we've had two games with five goals, one with nine goals and the other with just three. The Ducks were 5-1 OVER the total on the road.

05/21 08:05 PM EST NHL (61) ANAHEIM DUCKS VS (62) CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS Take: (61) NHL Correlated Parlay of the Year: Anaheim in Game 3 + OVER the total. I don't know how this Chicago defense is going to hold up in this series. They come off a thrilling 3-2 triple overtime win at Anaheim and deserve great credit, but because of injures are down to 4 defensemen. Duncan Keith played 49:51 on Tuesday night and seemed like he never left the ice at all. Niklas Hjalmarsson played 47:35, Brent Seabrook logged 47:46 and Johnny Oduya played 46:06, while the other two Chicago defenders -- veteran Kimmo Timonen, who struggled mightily seemingly every shift he played during regulation, and Kyle Cumiskey, pressed into service in Game 2 because David Rundblad struggled in Game 1 -- played a total of 35:19. Anaheim has a terrific offense and threw 60 shots at Corey Crawford the last game and he held up....but for how long can this Chicago defense keep doing that? Anaheim matches up real well. They are fast, deep and can play the physical game along the boards and in front of the net. The Ducks are 7-1 in their last 8 road games, 38-14 against the Western Conference, plus 27-11 playing on 1 days rest. They are also 4-0 over the total on the road, 15-4 over after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game. Chicago is 3-1-1 over the total at home and 7-1-3 over in the Western Conference Finals. The road team is 5-1 when they clash and the Ducks are 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Chicago. Play Anaheim in Game 3 + OVER the total.

The NY Islanders have a sizzling home record and are on a 4-0 under the total, plus 8-1 under at home. John Tavares and Anders Lee scored 12 seconds apart in the third period, after the Islanders had been stymied by Vasilevskiy, and New York stunned the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-1 with a win Saturday and this shapes up as a defensive battle.

The LA Kings are 3rd in the NHL in goals allowed, but 18th in goals scored, 20th on the power play. This is the second of a back to back road spot, too, playing at Ottawa, so they will be in no condition to play an uptempo style. The under is 52-18-14 when the Kings face the Eastern Conference.

12/11 07:05 PM EST NHL (7) CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS VS (8) BOSTON BRUINS Take: NHL TV Total of the Year: Boston/Chicago Over the total. Boston has not been the lights-out defensive teams we've seen the last four years because of injuries. Boston is 13th in goals allowed, 23rd in penalty killing. Defenseman Adam McQuaid (broken thumb) is ailing and Zdeno Chara has been out since October 23rd (knee). Chara may be back for this one but center David Krejci (groin), a strong penalty killer, has been missing most of that time as well and is not back. Boston is off a good defensive game against a bad team, a 5-2 win in Arizona, but the over is 9-3-2 in the Bruins last 14 after allowing 2 goals or less in their previous game. Into town comes Chicago, a team that is 6th in goals scored in the NHL. They fired 39 shots the last game, a win at New Jersey, their 7th win in a row. This is a low NHL total, so look for more goals than the oddsmakers anticipate. Play Boston/Chicago Over the total.

The LA Kings may have won two of the last three cups, but the Anaheim Ducks are considered by many to be the LA team to watch this year. The Ducks did blow a 3-2 lead in the playoffs to their crosstown rivals last year, but they added lots of offensive punch to go with an already excellent team. The Ducks lost their opener to Pittsburgh, 6-4, but rebounded with a win over the Red Wings, 3-2. That makes seven goals scored by the Ducks in their two games. And tonight they play a Buffalo team that is still looking for a point after two losses. The Sabres have allowed nine goals in two games and scored just three. The Sabres are coming off a loss to the Blackhawks, 6-2. Anaheim has every bit the scoring power that Chicago did and we saw what the Hawks did to the Sabres. I like this one to go OVER the total very easily on Monday.

Chicago has plenty of offensive weapons, second in the NHL in goals scored during the regular season with an uptempo, attacking style. The over is 5-2-1 in Blackhawks last 8 home games. The LA Kings had a bad offense for most of the regular season, but they've changed since the March 5 trade for 32-year old Marian Gaborik. He joined the Kings on March 5 from the Blue Jackets, an offensive force when healthy, and immediately catalyzed their offense. He has 11 playoff goals (11 during season). The low-scoring Kings have become the Stanley Cup playoffs' highest-scoring team. The over is 5-0 in the last 5 meetings, including a 5-4 OT win by Chicago in Game 5 and a 4-3 win in Game 6. Play Chicago/LA Kings Game 7 Over the total.

05/14 07:05 PM EST NHL (75) MONTREAL CANADIENS VS (76) BOSTON BRUINS Take: High Roller NHL Total: Montreal/Boston Game 7 Over the total. Boston has had a ton of scoring chances in this series put has been plagued by bad luck, hitting a bunch of posts. They are off a 4-0 loss in Game 6 with several more scoring opportunities. Fans are anticipating a low scoring Game 7, but this has been far more of an uptempo series than many expected. Montreal's defensemen are unleashing high powered slap shots from the point and both teams have been putting bodies in front of the net. Montreal is on a 6-2-2 run over the total and 4-0-1 over in road games. Montreal has highly skilled sharpshooters near the net, while Boston has great passing and prefers to play the physical game in front of the goal. All of those things will contribute to one team getting out in front early, which changes the tempo with their losing team having to attack. That creates scoring chances at both ends. Boston (No. 3 in scoring this season) is 28-11-13 over the total against the Eastern Conference and when these rivals meet the over is 5-1-1 in the last 7 meetings in Boston. Play Montreal/Boston Game 7 over the total.

Ilya Bryzgalov was ordinary at best as the Wild fell behind 2-0 in the series, allowing eight goals and turning in an .822 save percentage. Bryzgalov, picked up from the Edmonton Oilers at the trade deadline, was replaced by rookie Darcy Kuemper, who had been injured, and Kuemper led the Wild back into the series with three wins in four games. But Kuemper was hurt in the third period of Game 7, forcing Bryzgalov back into the net. Minnesota is on a 4-0 run over the total on the road and 8-1-3 over the total in their last 12 road games vs. a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. Chicago is loaded on offense, 2nd in the NHL in goals scored. The over is 7-1-2 in the Blackhawks last 10 vs. the Western Conference. If there's a weak spot it's goalie Corey Crawford, as Chicago is 12th in goals allowed, 19th in penalty killing. The over is 4-1-1 in the last six meetings, plus 3-0-1 in the last four meetings in Chicago between these teams, so look for a shootout. Play Minnesota/Chicago Game 1 over the total.
