AAA's *Pens/Caps* Game 1 TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER!
(NHL) Pittsburgh vs. Washington,
Total: 5.00 | -120.00 Over
Result: Loss
This is an 8* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the UNDER between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Washignton Capitals.

When the smoke clears at the end of this one, we're looking for this total to fall below the posted number. These teams are loaded with talent and each got superb goaltending in their opening round series wins. While this series is destined to have a lot of goals produced, we think each team comes out a bit flat in the opener as they try to get a feel for each other. Braden Holtby and Matt Murray (who has stopped 85 of 89 shots in the playoffs), have a golden opportunity to steal the show tonight. And from an Over/Under trend based stand point, they simply do not get much stronger than this as Pittsburgh has seen the total go UNDER the number in nine of 15 this year after a three-game unbeaten streak, while Washington has seen the total go UNDER in four of six this year when playing with three or more days of rest. Play the UNDER in Game 1.
