Atlanta +105 in hockey tonight, last night I saw it at +103 and jumped on it and now its +105 do everyone know something I dont.

You got Boston at home one of the hottest teams of late 8-3 in they're last 11, they're a hot and cold team and they're currently hot against Atlanta one of the most overrated and coldest and teams of late 2-9 in they're last 11 and 7-16 in they're last 23.

The only couple things I can see are Boston got a few injurys nothing special and Atlantas won the last 4 meetings, I think thats an overrated stat anyway 2 of the games were last year and the two games this season was early when Boston started out cold and Atlanta started out hot.

Ayway I'm not saying Boston is a lock or anything but I just dont see what would make them a home dog.

When I capped this game, I just couldn't get a feel for who to pick tonight. Atlanta is in the middle of a 2-6-2 streak but their acquisition of Tkachuk might give them new energy and momemtum, as what most trades do for a team. Their goaltending is still spotty though. Boston is coming back from that long road trip with decent results. I think they're playing a new goalie tonight and giving Thomas rest but not positive about that. The Bruins are also in danger of being flat at home since that trip took a toll on them, but I've been reading the player's quotes and they seem to be ready for this one.

This game is a tricky one, be careful.

Boston is 4-0-1 against the Thrashers recently in TD Banknorth Garden.

Not sure if they're going to be starting another goalie they sent they're back up to the minors and just got Mcdonald from Detroit, I have'nt read whos starting but I just dont see them starting Mcdonald in his first game plus they had a day off yesterday and Thomas only played the first peroid friday so I'd say Thomas will probaly start but I've got no facts to back that up.

To me it just looks theres to much weight being put into the couple trades Atlanta made and Boston getting an ass kicking saturday and I guess the books are thinking thats the way the public will feel.
