The Fordham Rams will be at home in the Bronx tonight to take on the UMass Minutemen. The Minutemen have not been getting it done on the road, with a record of 2-7, where they are averaging 70.2 points per game and allowing 80.3. The Rams have been solid at Rose Hill Gymnasium, where they are 8-4, averaging 67.9 points per game but allowing just 64.0.Fordham’s D will be the difference maker in this one. Depending on where you shop, the line is currently Fordham -2 but with a M/L of only -130, why would you sweat the points?

Sunday NHL Pick
The Anaheim Ducks are loaded with young talent and that will be on display tonight when they host the New York Islanders. New York will be playing back-to-back games after losing to the LA Kings yesterday, 5-2, and have not fared well against Anaheim. The Isles are just 1-5 in the last 6 meetings with the Ducks and 3-7 in their last 10 at the Pond. At 25-20-9 on the season, Anaheim is still in a playoff hunt. Expect them to come out swinging tonight against a team they know they can beat.
TONIGHT’S PICK: ANAHEIM DUCKS
Saturday NHL Pick
The 33-14-4 Toronto Maple Leafs snapped their 3-game skid on Thursday with a 3-1 win over the Minnesota Wild and as usual they were led by Auston Matthews, who had two goals in the victory. Tonight they will make the short trip to the Motor City to face the 23-23-6 Detroit Red Wings. Toronto needs to go on a run if they want to win the Eastern Conference so they can’t lose to teams like Detroit and they know that. The Leafs have won both meetings with the Wings this year. They are also 18-6 in the last 24 meetings overall and 5-1 in their last 6 trips to Little Caesars Arena.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS

The Manhattan Jaspers will be spotted 5 points tonight when they head to Poughkeepsie for a meeting with the Marist Red Foxes. Both teams are on a roll, with the Jaspers winning 3 straight and the Red Foxes 5. Marist is due for a loss and Manhattan can give it to them. The Jaspers average 72.6 points per game, as opposed to the Red Foxes 69.9, and beat them back on January 30th, 72-66. Also, the Red Foxes are just 1-6 ATS in their last 7 as a home favorite and in the last 5 meetings between these teams, the dog is 4-1 ATS.
TONIGHT’S PICK: MANHATTAN JASPERS +5
Thursday NHL Pick
The Calgary Flames are the hottest team in hockey and coach Darryl Sutter has his boys clicking on every cylinder. Tonight they will seek their 11th straight win and a franchise record when they visit the Vancouver Canucks. Vancouver is a mediocre 11-10-3 at Rogers Arena and had better bring their A-game if they want to score goals because they will be facing the best defense in the league as well as their former goalie, Jacob Markström, who has 8 shutouts on the season with a GAA of 2.06 and a 0.928 SV%. Calgary is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings overall with the Canucks and 5-2 in their last 7 in Vancouver. The Flames stay hot.
TONIGHT’S PICK: CALGARY FLAMES
Wednesday NHL Pick
The Winnipeg Jets will be a road dog tonight when they head to the Big D to face the Dallas Stars. These teams match up well and split their two meetings this season with one going to OT and the other to a shootout. Winnipeg is breathing down Dallas’ neck for the 5th spot in the Central. The Jets will be motivated to gain some ground on their rival and snap their two-game skid. Consider the dog in this one.
TONIGHT’S PICK: WINNIPEG JETS
Tuesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
Nevada pride will be at stake tonight when the Nevada Wolf Pack host the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels.

TONIGHT’S PICK: NEVADA WOLF PACK M/L
