AAA's BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT (LAY IT AND CA$H IT!)
(NHL) Detroit vs. Columbus,
Money Line: -191.00 Columbus (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Columbus Blue Jackets.

REASONING: The Red Wings enter off a 6-3 loss in Washington. Goaltender Petr Mrazek is now 12-13-6 with a 3.14 GAA. He's struggled against Columbus throughout his career, going 1-2-1 with a 2.98 GAA. Despite the recent uptick in play, Detroit still averages just 2.43 GPG, while conceding 2.98. Note that the Wings power play is dead last in the league with just an 11.8 percent success rate. The Blue Jackets are out to atone for a 3-0 setback to Vancouver at home. Columbus has in fact been sliding for a bit though, going just 3-4-0 in its last seven home contests. Time to get back on track and sending goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky between the pipes will give the team confidence, he's 29-11-3 on the season with a 2.20 GAA. He's owned the Wings throughout his career as well, going 8-4-1 with a 1.99 GAA. The Blue Jackets average 3.23 GPG and allow 2.74. We like Bobrovsky to outduel his counterpart with ease, play on COLUMBUS.
