December 20:
“Easiest Win” – Toronto leads 5-1 after 2 and wins a high scoring affair over the Penguins 7-3.
“Luckiest Win”/Most disappointing loss – (I picked) the Kings at +1.5. They led 4-3 with under 4 minutes to play and still couldn’t cover the +1.5.
December 21:
“Easiest” Win: Boston/St. Louis Over – A 5 goal first period paved the way for an easy win for over backers.
“Luckiest” win/most disappointing loss: Nothing major…the Habs go down to the Canes in OT.
