Look for the Washington Capitals and Alex Ovechkin to get back on track tonight when they host the struggling Montreal Canadiens. Montreal has lost 5 in a row and the Capitals have had the Canadiens number, winning 7 of the last 10 meetings, including a 4-2 victory on January 27th north of the border.
TONIGHT’S PICK: WASHINGTON CAPITALS

Wednesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks will be laying a lot of chalk tonight when they host the Central Arkansas Bears and if they want to cover the number they will. The Lumberjacks dominate at home, with a record of 12-1, averaging 84.5 points per game and allowing 65.2. The Bears are totally overmatched in this one, with a road record of 2-13, and a defense that is surrendering an average of 91.5 points on the road. That’s not good. Lay it and take Stephen F.
TONIGHT’S PICK: STEPHEN F. AUSTIN LUMBERJACKS -13
Tuesday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Dayton Flyers are the real deal and they will take their perfect 6-0 road record into Richmond tonight to face the VCU Rams. The Flyers, who are ranked 5th in the nation, have an opposing offense that is averaging 81.2 points per game and back it up with a defense that is surrendering just 65.6 points per game. The Rams are averaging 72.0 points per game, allowing an average of 64.3, and might make it interesting but do you know who’s #1 in the country in field goal percentage? Dayton.
TONIGHT’S PICK: DAYTON FLYERS M/L
Monday NHL Pick
The Calgary Flames will be hosting the Anaheim Ducks today, a team they blew out just last week, 6-0, at the Pond. The scheduling is not fair in the NHL but that’s the way it is. The Ducks will be playing back-to-back games and the Flames will be well rested after having a day off yesterday. Calgary has lost their last 5 games at the Saddledome so they’re due for a home victory.
TODAY’S PICK: CALGARY FLAMES
Sunday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The #4 San Diego State Aztecs should be ranked #1 but they’re not. They will take their perfect 25-0 record into Idaho today to face the Boise State Broncos. Are they going to fold? Not likely. The Aztecs already put the screws to the Broncs back on January 11th, blowing them out, 83-65, and with a defense that is relinquishing an average of just 58.4 points per game, forget about it.
TODAY’S PICK: SAN DIEGO STATE AZTECS M/L
Saturday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
When teams visit Dreamstyle Arena, or better known as the Pit, to face the New Mexico Lobos, the visitors rarely get out alive. Unfortunately for the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels, that is where they will be today. New Mexico is 14-1 at home and have been lighting up the scoreboard for the home crowd, averaging 84.5 points per game and allowing an average of 72.3. The Rebels stumble into this one losing 5 of their last 6 and are just 2-7 on the road, averaging 69.1 points per game and allowing an average of 77.1. As usual, the Lobos will get it done today at the Pit.
TODAY’S PICK: NEW MEXICO LOBOS M/L
Friday Men’s NCAA Basketball Pick
The Davidson Wildcats will be in Western New York tonight to take on the St. Bonaventure Bonnies, who have been on a roll. The Bonnies have won 5 in a row and are tough at home, where they are 7-3, averaging 68.1 points per game and surrendering just 58.8. The Wildcats’ road record is nothing to write home about at 3-6, where they are averaging 68.9 points per game and allowing an average of 72. Davidson has won the last 3 meetings with St. Bonaventure so it’s time for the Bonnies to buck the trend. With an electric crowd to back them at Reilly Center and their stingy defense, they should get the job done.
TONIGHT’S PICK: SAINT BONAVENTURE BONNIES M/L
