Return to Winning Ways

Things have not been going well for me recently in the betting department. I see a good opportunity in tonight's Minnesota Wild matchup at home against Columbus to break that losing skid.

MN Wild (+155) -1.5

Columbus did get a victory at home last night against Dallas, but weren't able to fly to Minnesota after the game due to fog.  They arrived in MN late morning which means they won't get a morning skate in, however that likely isn't a huge factor.  Don't let the recent good showings by the Blue Jackets fool you, they aren't good.  The Wild at home, with a couple days rest; verses a Columbus team playing back to backs and flying in day of. Obviously the straight up win is a more likely outcome but at -190 I just don't see any value in it, especially when I think the Wild will take the lead early and not look back. But I am prepared to be crossing fingers hoping for a possible empty netter in order to cover.

Bet: $200
Possible Win: $510
