Tuesday Hockey Pick

The Los Angeles Kings travel to Philadelphia tonight to take on the Broad Street Bullies. The road team is 7-1 over the last 8 between these 2 clubs. The Kings have dominated the Eastern Conference, going 6-1 over their last 7. It’s just the opposite for Philadelphia, who is only 1-10 over their last 11 against the Pacific Division. The Flyers are having trouble finding the back of the net, scoring only 14 goals over their last 9 games. It won’t get any easier for them tonight with Jonathan Quick between the pipes for Los Angeles. I like the road team in this one.

Tonight’s pick:

Los Angeles Kings

Monday Hockey Pick

The Vancouver Canucks and the Montreal Canadiens tangle tonight at Bell Centre. Both teams are sputtering, posting 2 game losing streaks. Montreal lost its first home game Saturday night to the hands of the Colorado Avalanche, 6-1. The thumping they took Saturday should give them some extra incentive to win this one for the home crowd. Vancouver is 1-4 in their current road trip and have not fared well in Montreal, going 1-5 in their last 6 games there. The Canadiens have the edge in offense, defense, power play, penalty kills, discipline and goaltending. I like the home team in this one.

Tonight’s pick:

Montreal Canadiens

Sunday NFL Pick

I like the Raiders over the Vikes, laying 3 and the juice is -120. That means the books are nervous about the number.

Today’s pick:

Oakland Raiders

Sunday NHL Pick

The red hot New York Rangers look to make it 9 in a row as they take on the Toronto Blue Jays at MSG. Toronto will have their work cut out for them because New York is 7-0 in their last 7 home games. Lundqvist is not in the net for the Rangers tonight but that shouldn’t matter. Raanta is expected between the pipes and he has a GAA of 0.67 and a .976 SV percentage – that’s tough to beat. I like the Rangers in this one.

Today’s pick:

New York Rangers

Saturday NCAAF Pick

Two of the worst in the MAC are going head-to-head today. You’ve got to roll with the home dog and the points.

Today’s pick:

Eastern Michigan

Friday NHL Pick

San Jose Sharks embark on a 6-game road trip, as they head to Joe Louis Arena to face the Detroit Red Wings. Sharks have won 11 of the last 14 overall against the Red Wings and 7 out of 8 in the Motor City. Marleau for the Sharks excels in Detroit, netting 5 goals and 2 assists in his last 5 games there. Good value at -105. I’m siding with the Sharks in this one.

Today’s pick:

San Jose Sharks

Thursday NCAAF Game

Two weak teams go at it tonight with UL Lafayette visiting South Alabama. The South Alabama Jags are 2-6 ATS this year and 1-8 in their last 9 conference games ATS. UL Lafayette are 3-4-1 ATS and have the edge in points/game, yards gained, yards allowed, time of possession, red zone and penalties. These 2 teams met up last year with ULL winning 19-9… Taking the road team here and the points.

Tonight’s NCAAF pick:

UL Lafayette
