On Friday the Dog with bite is on Ottawa. Game 55 at 7:05 eastern. The Senators have the better numbers here and are playing much better than Carolina of late. Ottawa has been a solid money maker in this range as a dog from +100 to +150 going 19-15. They have handled teams with a losing record to the tune of 8-3 this season and have won 4 of the last 5. Carolina comes in having dropped 11 of the last 13 and they are just 2-9 off a home loss, 7-13 with revenge, 1-5 off a non conference game, 2-7 on Friday, 4-10 vs teams under .500 and 4-11 after allowing 4 or more goal last out. They have the 3rd worst Power play in the league and the 27 ranked home defense, that will take on the Senators 4th ranked road offense. Ottawa is a live dog here tonight. Take Ottawa.
