4* Columbus

Columbus vs. Anaheim, 02/18/2013 22:00 EDT, Score: 2 - 3

Money Line: +180 Columbus

Sportsbook: BookMaker

Result: Loss

Taking COLUMBUS here. Will grab the Blue Jackets at this price. They are 5-2 last 7 trips into Anaheim. Ducks off a 6 game road trip where they won 5 games including the last 4 in a row. 3 of those wins were shoot-out wins. They also beat some of the 'better' teams scoring underdog wins over STL and Chicago, and besting Detroit, Dallas and Nashville to round out the road trip. Now they face 4-9-1 team who is just 1-5 on the road. I will grab Columbus at this price though. I always feel that teams coming back from a long road trip struggle their first game back as they get in the routine of being home. 4* COLUMBUS BLUE JACKETS
