| This
week: Ottawa vs. New Jersey (10/27)
2.
Minnesota Wild (7-0-1) Great
goaltending gets you to the Stanley
Cup Finals, and the Wild have two
capable netminders in Niklas Backstrom
and Josh Harding. Hop on this bandwagon
before the oddsmakers do in our NHL
futures. With a stifling defense
that allows only 1.25 goals against
the Wild are proving that they are
contenders early on this season.
This week: Minnesota vs. Calgary
(10/24), Minnesota vs. Edmonton (10/25)
3.
Philadelphia Flyers (6-1) Daniel
Briere may be stealing the headlines,
but Joffrey Lupul is keying the success
of the
Flyers by steadying the second line
with Mike Richards. The two have
16 combined points this season and
the Flyers only have one loss. They
have a stiff test on Saturday against
the surprising Boston Bruins.
This week: Philadelphia vs. Florida
(10/24), Philadelphia vs. Tampa Bay
(10/25), Philadelphia vs. Boston
(10/27)
4.
Detroit Red Wings (6-2-1) Detroit
shot themselves in the foot by parking
themselves in the penalty box all
night, leaving Dominik Hasek with
no help at all. Matters are only
getting worse since the youth movement
in Detroit isn’t maturing fast
enough. The Wings have two stiff
challenges with the Canucks and San
Jose visiting them at Joe Louis Arena
this week.
This week: Vancouver vs. Detroit
(10/24), San Jose vs. Detroit (10/26)
5.
San Jose Sharks (4-3-1) Joe Thornton
helped steady the Sharks in a 4-2
win over Vancouver and a 3-0 thrashing
of Nashville. Despite the 4-2 loss
to Detroit, Thornton had five points
in the two wins. The Sharks are starting
to get the ball rolling and instilling
faith in the betting investors who
projected them as the best team in
the league.
This week: San Jose vs. Calgary
(10/22), San Jose vs. Detroit (10/26),
San Jose vs. Columbus (10/27)
6.
Carolina Hurricanes (4-1-3) Erik
Cole has gone from being a dominant
point scorer to an injury-prone let
down in a hurry. And this big loss
led to two losses last week. They
are the busiest team in the league
this week with four games against
top-15 teams. This will be an early
test to see if the Canes can survive
without Cole, and if their betting
faithful should look elsewhere for
now.
This week: Vancouver vs. Carolina
(10/22), Buffalo vs. Carolina (10/24),
Montreal vs. Carolina (10/26), Carolina
vs. New York Islanders (10/27)
7.
Boston Bruins (5-2) The Bruins
beat Tampa Bay 4-1 and then shutout
the New York Rangers behind the fantastic
goal tending of Manny Fernandez and
Tim Thomas. Nobody gave the Bruins
a chance in the preseason and they
are proving the experts and oddsmakers
wrong (for now). The tilt against
Philadelphia will test to see how
good these guys really are.
This week: Boston vs. Montreal (10/22),
Chicago vs. Boston (10/25), Philadelphia
vs. Boston (10/27)
