Monday NHL Pick

The Montreal Canadiens face the Arizona Coyotes today on the road. Both teams lost their last game but Arizona has the edge, with a home record of 14-11-4 against Montreal’s road record of 12-14-2. Condon is confirmed in the net for the Canadiens. His record is 13-16-4 with a GAA of 2.50 and a SV% of .904. On the flip side, Domingue is expected as goalie for the Coyotes, with a record of 10-8-4, 2.55 GAA and a .916 SV%. Arizona leads in offense with number of goals scored, power play percentage, shooting and faceoffs. I’m taking the desert dogs today.

Today’s pick:

Arizona Coyotes

Sunday NHL Pick

The Philadelphia Flyers take on the New York Rangers today at Madison Square Gardens. The Flyers’ road record is 11-12-3 and Rangers are 20-5-3 at home. Looking at the goalie matchup, Mason is expected in net for the Flyers, with a record of 13-14-7, while Lunqvist is expected for the Rangers with a record of 27-14-4. I’m siding with the Rangers today.

Today’s pick:

New York Rangers

Saturday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick

The Providence Friars host the Georgetown Hoyas today at the Dunkin Donuts Center and they are due for a big win after losing 3 in a row. The Friars beat the Hoyas in Georgetown 73-69 in January. The Friars have the edge in offense, defense and I see them covering the 3.5 points.

Today’s pick:

Providence Friars -3.5

Thursday NHL Pick

The Anaheim Ducks are coming off of an impressive win in Philadelphia Tuesday, beating the Flyers 4-1. The Ducks are on fire, going 7-1 in their last 8 games and 4-1 in their last 5 road games. Tonight they visit Columbus, who they beat on November 6th, 4-2. Columbus has been stale at home, over their last 7 games they’re 2-5. With Getzlaf heating up and the kid Rakell finding the back of the net, I’m siding with the Ducks.

Tonight’s pick:

Anaheim Ducks

Wednesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick

The St. Bonaventure Bonnies travel to Rose Hill Gym in the Bronx tonight to face the Fordham Rams. The Bonnies have been dominant against Atlantic teams, going 12-3 ATS in their last 15 and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 in Fordham. In their last meeting, St. Bonaventure prevailed, 66-52. I like the road favorite Bonnies in this one.

Today’s pick:

St. Bonaventure Bonnies -4.5

Tuesday NHL Pick UPDATE

Calgary Flames just announced that 3 key players will be benched in tonight’s game for disciplinary reasons – Monahan, Gaudreau and Bouma. You might want to reconsider this one.
