JC declined to make any picks on a three-game Wednesday night and deferred first pick to Adam today. Tuesday could have been a rough night for both, but JC escaped 3-2 to Adam's low-water mark of the season at 1-4. We won't be recording today or tomorrow due both of us leaving town for the weekend, but here are today's picks. I will try and post picks for Friday and the weekend.
ADAM (44-36): Boston (1st), Montreal (4th), Anaheim (6th), St. Louis (8th), Dallas (9th)
*St. Louis upset over Nashville
JC (46-29): Detroit (2nd), Pittsburgh (3rd), Tampa Bay (5th), Winnipeg (7th), San Jose (10th)

ADAM - You might be scratching your head as to why I picked this game when there are better match-ups right now. Both teams are underachieving for various reasons right now (Dallas is injuries and goaltending, Calgary is goaltending). The winning team could use this as a jump start to gain some positive momentum, while the loser's woes continue. The Flames have lost four of five and are coming off a four game road trip where they were outscored 16-5. The Stars were spanked in Winnipeg 8-2 on Tuesday night, and have lost six of seven. Something has to give here.

JC - Nashville has started off the season slowly but has begun to show signs of life, most recently with a 3-1 victory over Ottawa on Tuesday. The Blues are one of the most well-rounded teams in the league, but are coming off a 2-1 loss to Chicago in overtime last night. They're also 3-4-1 in their last eight games and are struggling to score. Carter Hutton gets the start for St. Louis against his former team. Historically this Central Division clash provides great entertainment, and I don't see tonight being any different.
