Avalanche at Senators 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Mike
Latest Odds : OTT -120 Total 5.5
The Avalanche and the Senators will be facing off again in Sweden here. However, the game is one that is going to be a great matchup as the Senators definitely have a player who is very familiar with the Avalanche team as they have Mat Duchene from the Avs in a trade that happened in the middle of the first period between these two teams and it is definitely something the Avalanche will be looking back on as either a good move or a bad move.
The Avalanche on the season have had a decent offense that has been able to put in 3.4 goals a game on the year. However, the defense for the Avalanche has struggled as the Avalanche defense is giving up 3.4 goals a game on the year.
The Senators on the other hand are scoring goals at a rate of 3.6 goals a game. The defense for the Senators is only slightly better as the Senators defense is giving up goals at a rate of 3.1 goals a game on the season so far.
Recent Betting Trends:
Avalanche are 4-1 in their last 5 vs. Eastern Conference.
Senators are 7-2 in their last 9 Saturday games.
Over is 9-2-2 in Avalanche last 13 Saturday games.
Over is 4-1 in Senators last 5 vs. Central.
Free Betting Pick: Ottawa Senators -120
The home crowd is going to be missing for either team here and that makes this a game based off of the pure talent of the players. Look for the NHL International series game 2 to go to Ottawa as the trade of Duchene will hurt the Avs, but so will the way the Senators are going to watch the net. Senators win this one 3-1.

Blue Jackets at Red Wings 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Adam
Latest Odds : DET -135 Total 5.5
The Blue Jackets are playing in back to back games, but they do not have to travel far for the games. The game on Friday night was in Columbus and it was against a team the Blue Jackets are familiar with in the Hurricanes. However, the Hurricanes are not a team that usually wears the Blue Jackets out to much so that could help them out coming into face the Red Wings.
Seth Jones is the player who has managed to lead the Blue Jackets for points on the season. Jones, while he does not lead in goals or assist, has taken over the team lead by getting 12 points on the year and is coming into the game sitting on a +8 margin.
For the Red Wings they have Friday off, but that may not help them out that much as they have to figure out what exactly went wrong in the game against the Flames. In the game against the Flames the Red Wings allowed a total of 6 goals to be scored and looked a little bit on the flat side even though they did not even play in back to back games.
The Red Wings are led by Dylan Larkin still on the year when it comes to scoring. Larkin has managed to get a total of 14 points on the year with 12 of those points coming in the form of assist so far.
Recent Betting Trends:
Blue Jackets are 6-2 in their last 8 vs. a team with a losing record.
Red Wings are 7-1 in their last 8 home games following a road trip of 7 or more days.
Over is 5-1 in Blue Jackets last 6 road games.
Over is 2-0-2 in Red Wings last 4 vs. Metropolitan.
Free Betting Pick: Columbus Blue Jackets +125
The Blue Jackets are a strong team and can handle the back to back games. Look for the Blue Jackets to be able to handle a Red Wings team that is still trying to figure out the defense and why it is so bad in some games. Blue Jackets win here 4-1.

Islanders at Blues 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Jim
Latest Odds : STL -170 Total 5.5
The Islanders have the offense that is able to hang with almost any team in the league. The downside is the defense is not matching the offense’s production on the season and that has really caused the Islanders to have quite a few issues on the year so far.
The Islanders offense is able to get a total of 3.6 goals a game so far this season. The Islanders defense is what has cost the team some of the wins they should have had on the year as the defense is giving up 3.1 goals a game, but usually gives up that amount when the offense cannot find the net.
The Blues are coming into this game with only 3 losses all season and that has been because of the net play of Jake Allen who has managed to be like a magician for the defense. The Blues are the second rated defense in all the NHL and that is going to make a huge difference as the old football saying goes, which can be applied to hockey here the defense wins the game.
Speaking of the defense for the Blues it is only giving up 2.3 goals a game on the year so far. However, the offense for the Blues is playing decent as well as they are scoring at a clip of 3.3 goals a game.
Recent Betting Trends:
Islanders are 5-1 in their last 6 vs. a team with a winning record.
Blues are 4-0 in their last 4 games playing on 1 days rest.
Over is 8-1 in Islanders last 9 overall.
Under is 6-0 in Blues last 6 vs. Metropolitan.
Free Betting Pick: Saint Louis Blues -170
The Islanders defense has been something to cost the Islanders a lot of games this year. However, the Blues are the exact opposite and the defense controls the games and the tempo. Look for the Blues to be able to easily hand the Islanders a big loss here 4-1.
-
Penguins at Predators 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Adam
Latest Odds : NSH -120 Total 5.5
The Penguins season has been one that they have had to learn quite a bit. Yes, the Penguins learned last season how to cope without Crosby on the ice when he was injured, but now he is back and this year the Penguins still are not relying to heavily on the offensive threat they had in Crosby and when he is on the ice, he does not seem to be drawing nearly as much attention as what he used to.
Matt Murray has been the main goalie for the Penguins on the season, but he has had some struggles. Behind him the Penguins do have a lack of quality depth, but they still like to play some good games. Murray has a save percentage of 90.6% this season.
The Predators have found the offense can come to life and it does not have to come from people named Forsberg of Johansen to get the job done all the time. Yes, the Predators are still relying rather heavily on these two key players, but they are not relying on them exclusively to get the job done, which is a good thing for the Preds.
With the Predators they have had Rinne in net most of the season. He has managed to keep his goals against average at a very respectable 2.08 goals a game allowed. However, he is saving 93.4% of the shots that have been sent his way.
Recent Betting Trends:
Penguins are 2-6 in their last 8 Saturday games.
Predators are 20-7 in their last 27 home games.
Under is 7-2 in Penguins last 9 vs. Western Conference.
Over is 3-1-1 in Predators last 5 games playing on 3 or more days rest.
Free Betting Pick: Nashville Predators -120
The Predators offense and the defense seem to go together really well so far this year for the Predators. This is contrary to the Penguins who have seen some struggles come up at times. With that being the case the Penguins will lose the game on the struggles of the defense 3-2.

Jets at Coyotes 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Mike
Latest Odds : WIN -125 Total 6
Blake Wheeler has finally showed up for the Jets this season and taken his place atop the leaderboard for the points total for the Jets. Wheeler started off very slow this season, but now for the Jets is back on top at 21 points. What is even better for the Jets fans is the fact that Wheeler is leading in only assist this year with 16.
The person Wheeler is typically feeding the puck to for the assist is Mark Scheifele who has managed to pull down 9 goals on the year so far for the Jets. Scheifele could easily build on this lead even more if he was able to continue to play at the high level the fans have come to expect.
The Coyotes season has just been painful to watch for anyone with an interest in hockey. The Coyotes have not really been able to do much of anything. The wins they have managed to get on the season have been pure luck wins and typically were a bounce of a bad puck on the opponent that managed just sneak by the goalie and get into the net for the score.
Recent Betting Trends:
Jets are 10-1 in their last 11 vs. Western Conference.
Coyotes are 1-7 in their last 8 home games.
Over is 5-1-2 in Jets last 8 road games vs. a team with a home winning % of less than .400.
Under is 11-4-2 in Coyotes last 17 vs. Western Conference.
Free Betting Pick: Winnipeg Jets -125
The Jets are going to dominate in this game. The Coyotes have improved some and even against the Blues it was only a 1 goal loss, but the Coyotes have not improved that much. The Jets win this game over the Coyotes 3-1.
-
Canucks at Sharks 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Thomas
Latest Odds : SJ -125 Total 5.5
Vancouver had a game on Thursday night that seen them unable to do much of anything. The Canucks offense was unreliable and the defense just could not help the goalie out at turning away the Ducks offense and that is what cost them the game. This is in contrast to the Sharks who have been off since dropping a game to the Lightning. The game against the Lightning was almost like the Canucks game, but the Sharks have more time off to figure out what went wrong.
On the season the Sharks are scoring goals at a rate of 2.6 goals a game. The defense is giving up the goals at a rate of 2.5 goals a game. So this is a very slim margin for a good team to live off of if they are going to keep winning.
The Canucks are coming into the game with a season average of 2.8 goals being scored per game. The defense for the Canucks is giving up 2.4 goals a game on the year so far. So they do have a better margin for the wins.
Recent Betting Trends:
Canucks are 4-1 in their last 5 games following a loss of 3 or more goals.
Sharks are 4-1 in their last 5 home games.
Under is 4-1-1 in Canucks last 6 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 days situation.
Under is 15-4-8 in Sharks last 27 Saturday games.
Free Betting Pick: Vancouver Canucks +115
The Canucks loss was not as bad as the Sharks loss. However, the Sharks did have more time off to recover. The difference here is the fact the Canucks are just a better defensive team and that is what will win the game for the Canucks 3-1.

Oilers at Rangers 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Adam
Latest Odds : NYR -117 Total 5.5
The Edmonton Oilers (6 - 8 - 1, 13 pts) are on the road for a tough match up against the NY Rangers (8 - 7 - 2, 18 pts). New York will be hosting this game at the Madison Square garden in New York, NY. New York rolls into town off of a nice win over the Boston Bruins while Edmonton just scored an overtime win against the New York Islanders.
Edmonton comes to town a game removed from watching Leon Draisaitl score the game winning goal over the Islanders. Edmonton is the worst offensive team in the NHL this year but it hasn't been due to any laziness on the part of Connor McDavid (6 goals, 12 assists). McDavid has turned in one of the most impressive early-season performances in the league this year. McDavid's excellent play this year hasn't been enough to keep Edmonton in the win column but that could change here.
The NY Rangers are 10th in the NHL in goals scored this season, averaging 3.3 scores per game. Center Mika Zibanejad (8 goals, 10 assists) has been dominant in the early going and his match up with Connor McDavid will easily be the highlight of the night for hockey fans. New York is 5th in the NHL in power play percentage which puts them in a unique position to rack up some goals over Edmonton in what could be a high scoring game.
Recent Betting Trends:
Oilers are 4-10 in their last 14 vs. Eastern Conference.
Rangers are 35-17 in their last 52 vs. Pacific.
Under is 7-0 in Oilers last 7 road games.
Over is 6-1 in Rangers last 7 overall.
Free Betting Pick: New York Rangers -117
The Oilers have had quite a few offensive woes on the season so far. That has really cost the OIlers quite a bit in the way of wins, even with some decent defense. That is what will be the problem in this game as e like NY to defeat Edmonton in this game, 5 - 3.

Maple Leafs at Bruins 11/11/17 - NHL Picks & Predictions
by Mike
Latest Odds : TOR -115 Total 5.5
The Toronto Maple Leafs are drawing a road match up against the Boston Bruins for this weekend. Boston will be hosting this game at the TD Garden in Boston, MA. Boston and Toronto will be taking each other on for the second night in a row which means both teams should be at the top of their game against one another. Boston has fallen to the middle of the pack in the Atlantic while Toronto continues to pace atop the division.
The Boston Bruins come into this game as one of the most disappointing teams in the NHL. Boston is ranked 16th in the NHL in goals scored this season and that has largely been due to the strong play of David Pastrnak (9 goals, 7 assists). However, even with Pastrnak's strong play the rest of the Bruins have struggled to get things going. Boston is 3rd in the NHL in penalty kill which shows that they have potential for a shut-out defensive effort.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are looking to continue their upward ascent in the Atlantic with a big win here. Toronto is 2nd in the NHL in goals scored per game, racking up 4 per outing. Auston Matthews (10 goals, 9 assists) leads the team in scoring but he hasn't been enough to help overcome Toronto's middling lackluster defense. Toronto is giving up nearly 4 goals per game to opposing teams.
Recent Betting Trends:
Maple Leafs are 7-2 in their last 9 vs. a team with a losing record.
Bruins are 4-13 in their last 17 games playing on 0 days rest.
Over is 5-1 in Maple Leafs last 6 vs. Atlantic.
Under is 4-1 in Bruins last 5 home games.
Free Betting Pick: Toronto Maple Leafs -115
The Maple Leafs have a great offense and a defense that is under-performing to say the least. However, the Bruins do not have a good offense and the Bruins have relied on David Pastrnak quite a bit this year. Relying on only a single player for offense will cost the Bruins in this game. We like Toronto to defeat Boston here, 4 - 2.

Both the Devils and Panthers are struggling to find wins right now. The Devils are a much better team and Florida has a tough back-to-back spot with two away games. Back the Devils as they seek their 10th win of the season. Devils win 4-2.

This race which was run as The Edgemere Handicap until 1981. The Red Smith Handicap honors the late sportswriter Walter Wellesley "Red" Smith (1905-1982). A Pulitzer Prize winner in 1976, Smith covered sports for 55 years, most notably for The New York Herald Tribune and later The New York Times, writing a widely syndicated column for both outlets. According to his obituary published in the Times: "He preferred covering sports like baseball, football, boxing and horse playing ('not horse racing,' he emphasized) and disdained what he called 'back and forth' sports like basketball and hockey." The Edgemere Handicap was also the name of a mile and a furlong race on the main track last run here in 1957. Here in the 58th running of The Smith ... #3 GET JETS, a 6-1 shot, has hit the board in "POWER RUN FASHION" in three straight, including back-to-back "POWER RUN WINS" in his last two outings. Jockey John Velazquez has been in his irons on three previous occasions, hitting the board in each, winning twice, and is back this afternoon here in Ozone Park for his 4th ride, gunning for a "Hat Trick Win!" #12 MESSI, a rare Greman-brade racing in North America, and a 10-1 BOMB, has produced a quartet of "POWER RUNS" in his last five outings, hitting the board in three of those efforts.

My selection for this event is OAK BROOK. Should best this field here, showing quite good figures of late. Going in a turf route race gives this gelding a competitive shot. Is tough not to consider given the company run in lately. REVVED UP - Has solid Equibase Speed Figures and has to be considered for a bet for this event. This colt looks strong in this race since McGaughey has a solid win percent with horses going this distance. FLASHY CHELSEY - Is a definite contender - given the 106 Equibase Speed Figure from his most recent race. Solid rider and trainer combo winning 25 percent of their races working together.

#8 UCANTHANKMELATER (ML=10/1)
#5 SOUTH TEXAS LINGO (ML=12/1)
JONNY'S CHOICE - Finished out of the money last out at Santa Anita, but was within five lengths of the winner. Opening at 9/2 makes me think he's got a chance. Here is a true horse for the course. Loves the track here at Del Mar. TISDALE - Hess moves this animal here to Del Mar from Santa Anita. Looking at the horse's past performance lines, he has shown the ability to win at different racing venues. A horse coming back this soon after a strong race is a good sign. UCANTHANKMELATER - Have to give this gelding a shot. Ran a solid outing in the last race within the last month or so. Coming off a fourth place finish at Santa Anita, some may skip this horse. I'm not. He just missed hitting the show spot, and has decent M/L odds today. SOUTH TEXAS LINGO - Don't often see a positive return on investment like +98. This rider/handler duo has done well together over the last year. This one could be a possible overlay in this race at morning odds of 12/1. Finished fifth in last race at Santa Anita but was close at the finish.

DIZZY DANCER - After the event aboard this animal on Oct 27th, the jockey is going to be in touch with the gelding much better. Morey had been running this gelding at higher levels recently. Did win a $12,500 Claiming race though, on Jul 14th. Could do it again here. When this jock and trainer unite you have to take a look. Velasco and Morey have been wonderful together.

RECOMMENDED CHOICES
The Walker Group Picks
# 5 POINT OF ORDER 20/1
# 8 DISTINCT PASSION 4/1
# 7 THUNDER RIDE 3/1
POINT OF ORDER is the most favorable bet in this affair particularly if the morning line of 20/1 holds. Is hard not to look at based on Equibase Speed Figures which have been very good - 50 avg - of late. Has been running well lately and will almost certainly be on the front end early on. DISTINCT PASSION - Sire -With Distinction- has produced offspring who have done solidly in their first askings. Blinkers on could be the difference here. McClachrie is terrific with first time entrants. THUNDER RIDE - Going on blinkers can produce noticeable speed boosts. Casse has a very solid win percent with horses running in turf sprint races. Overall, this conditioner has been lucrative at this distance/surface.

Preview: Louisiana Lafayette at Ole Miss
Gracenote
Nov 8, 2017
Coming off its first road win in nearly a year, Ole Miss will look to build on the momentum of last week's thrilling win over Kentucky as it hosts Louisiana Lafayette on Saturday afternoon. The Rebels scored the go-ahead touchdown with five seconds remaining in a 37-34 win over the Wildcats, and would love nothing more than to repeat the feat against Louisiana before closing out the season with two difficult games.
Ole Miss is ineligible for a bowl game this season due to a self-imposed ban, but it's clear the Rebels still want to finish on a high note in what has been an up-and-down season. Quarterback Jordan Ta'amu was sensational for the second straight game in place of injured starter Shea Patterson, throwing for 382 yards and four touchdowns - including the game-winning strike to D.K. Metcalf in the corner of the end zone with time winding down. Ole Miss returns home to face a Louisiana team that kept its flickering Sun Belt title hopes alive with a 17-14 triumph over South Alabama. The Ragin' Cajuns have won three of four following a three-game losing streak.
TV: Noon ET, SEC Network. LINE: Ole Miss -20
ABOUT LOUISIANA (4-4): The Ragin' Cajuns handed the offense to freshman quarterback Levi Lewis last week, and he responded by passing for 110 yards and two touchdowns and adding 129 yards on the ground in the pivotal victory over the Jaguars. His rushing contributions bolster a solid Louisiana rush attack that has produced 18 touchdowns and averages 4.3 yards per carry this season. The passing game hasn't been quite as prolific, with eight receivers accounting for the Cajuns' 11 scores through the air.
ABOUT OLE MISS (4-5): The Rebels put themselves in position to win with four consecutive defensive second-half stops after struggling to rein in the Kentucky offense in the early going. “One of the biggest adjustments is that we had a pressure package dialed up, and I felt like for some reason we weren’t blitzing with a lot of speed,” defensive coordinator Wesley McGriff told reporters afterward. “We decided at halftime, based on the roster they were giving in the run game, that we were going to go with a certain front in coverage.” Ole Miss finishes its schedule with games against Texas A&M and Mississippi State.
EXTRA POINTS
1. Ta'amu has passed for 750 yards while accounting for six touchdowns in his past two games.
2. Ole Miss has scored points on 94.4 percent of its red-zone visits, the 10th-best rate in Division I.
3. Louisiana ranks 10th in the 12-team Sun Belt Conference in total yards.
PREDICTION: Ole Miss 45, Louisiana 27
