NHL SERIES

Ottawa +193 over N.Y. RANGERS

The Senators are not going to be an easy out. They have deep scoring, good speed, and enough grit to match the Rangers' toughness. New York's been making a lot of mistakes down the stretch and they’re not in good form, as they’ve lost three of its last four with a chance to clinch the President’s trophy. The Rangers are an offensively challenged group that scored two goals or less in seven of their last 13 games and that’s not the way you want to come into the playoffs. Ottawa has been written off many times this year. They were written off before the season began. They were written off as a fluke 25 games in and all they kept on doing was winning games. Don’t write this team off. They’re good and they can challenge the Rangers in this series. Sens better balanced team with more weapons than the Blue Shirts. Yes, the Rangers are better defensively but Ottawa is capable of playing different styles and could be in New York’s kitchen after beating them rather handily in the season series 3-1 and outscoring them, 14-8. This is going to be a long series and the Sens are going to give this prohibitive favorite a big run for their money. Play: Ottawa +193 (Risking 1 unit).

FLORIDA +167 over New Jersey

This is a series everyone assumes the Devils are going to win but we’re not as convinced, as Florida is truly a team with nothing to lose. "We're going in loose," GM Dale Tallon said Sunday. "Everyone's waiting for the other shoe to drop, but we're going to have some fun with this." While the Devils seem to hold a significant edge in terms of the firepower up front, there are still questions about the blue line. They have been without their best defenseman, Henrik Tallinder, for the last half of the season and blood clotting issues look to keep him out of the playoffs. No defenseman had more than four goals. While the addition of Marek Zidlicky at the trade deadline added a little oomph to the blue line, the reality is the Devils won't get much help from the back end when it comes to offense. The Panthers, by comparison, are downright dynamic on the back end. Led by Brian Campbell, who finished tied for second among all defensemen with 53 points and second among defensemen with 49 assists, the Panthers' blue line is crucial to generating offense. Jason Garrison enjoyed a breakout year with 16 goals, third among defensemen. Dmitry Kulikov, who had 27 points, is another weapon from the back end. In a series that figures to be tight, production from the blue line, or lack thereof, might be a deciding factor. Lastly, we’ve been suggesting all year that Marty Brodeur is a big liability and we’re not about to change our tune now. He’s allowed an inordinate amount of soft goals and could easily cost the Devils this series. The price, the lack of pressure, the much stronger goaltending and defense make the Panthers very appealing taking back a tag like this with home ice advantage. Play: Florida +167 (Risking 1 unit).

Los Angeles +189 over VANCOUVER

There are no easy draws in the Western Conference and the President's Trophy winning Vancouver Canucks certainly didn't get one with the eighth-seeded Los Angeles Kings. This one could come down to goaltending and in that regard we’ll gladly take our chances with L.A at +189. The Kings finished second only to the St. Louis as the stingiest team in the league, allowing only 2.07 goals per game thanks in large part to Vezina Trophy candidate Jonathan Quick. Goals have been hard to come by this season for the Kings but one can point to their final stretch of the season to prove they've gotten over that problem. The Kings scored 54 goals in their 18 games through March and April, good for an average of three goals per game, which would rank them among the league leaders had they done that all year long. This is a more comfortable team up front than it was three months ago. These aren't exactly the same bunch of Canucks that got pushed around by the Boston Bruins in last year's Cup finals. Since that fateful series in June, the Canucks have added the likes of Dale Weise, Zack Kassian, David Booth, Samuel Pahlsson and Marc-Andre Gragnani. All around, this is the most depth the Canucks have probably ever had in their history but the absence of team leader and point-getter Daniel Sedin will be felt. This is certainly a tough matchup for both teams but the tag on the Kings makes them very worthy of a wager. Play: Los Angeles +189 (Risking 2 units).

NASHVILLE -111 over Detroit

Line opened with the Predators being -125 favorite. It’s been bet down because the Wings have the pedigree and popularity to attract money. That works in our favor and we’ll gladly step in. Nashville enters this series healthier, younger and more poised to advance. They won six of eight games down the stretch and allowed one goal or less in all six wins. Detroit was held to two goals or less in 12 of its last 17 games. Pekka Rinne is as good as any goaltender in the league while Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard has been injured often in final two months and has not looked the same. Earning the No. 4 seed was crucial for the Predators, especially considering Detroit's struggles on the road this season. Nobody in the league had as big a swing when it came to success at home versus winning on the road. At Joe Louis Arena, the Red Wings carved a spot in the NHL record books with their home win streak. Yet, on the road they were just 17-21-3 including losses in three of its last four home games. Either way, an extremely talented team will be out after one round. Detroit's road struggles are a concern and Nashville's loud building isn't the best place to try to resolve them. The Predators have the best shutdown D pair in hockey, more depth up front, better special teams and a slight edge in goal that could potentially turn into a big edge. This is a first round underlay. Play: Nashville -111 (Risking 2.22 units to win 2).

Washington +183 over BOSTON Pinnacle
Every year the Capitals are big favorites to win round one and every year they’re one of the favorites to reach the finals. Does playing the significant underdog role allow the Caps to play with more emotional freedom? Certainly top players like Mike Green, Nicklas Backstrom and Captain Alex Ovechkin have not fared well under the spotlight of expectation in the playoffs but the Caps have some things working in their favor. Stanley Cup champs have a history of bowing out early the next year because of fatigue and the grueling toll of playing well into June the previous year. It’s also worth noting that Washington beat Boston three out of four times this season. The real kicker is that the Caps are healthy, Ovechkin has his center back and with Backstrom, Green, Ovechkin and Semin all playing in the same game this season, Washington is 11-1. When discussing this series, one has to consider the goaltending situation. With veteran Tomas Vokoun out with a groin injury and Michal Neuvirth on the mend, it looks like the Game 1 start will go to rookie Braden Holtby. Holtby has been solid in relief this season, going 4-2-1, including a win in New York on Saturday that denied the Rangers the Presidents' Trophy. He is 14-4-3 with three shutouts in his NHL career but is without any playoff experience at the NHL level. The 22-year-old has proved himself to be remarkably poised and confident in his brief exposure to NHL play. If he can summon his inner Ken Dryden, this series could be closer than most expect. Tim Thomas is probably not too happy about drawing the Capitals after he refused to visit the White House. Funny, isn’t it, how that works out? Thomas is erratic. His unorthodox style of flopping around has gotten him into many precarious situations and while he can shine, it’s also difficult to have a lot of faith in him. With all the pressure on the B’s, the Caps come into this series in a complete role reversal than previous years in more ways than one. No longer do they play a free-wheeling open style and nor are they expected to win. With a tag like this, it’s worth the risk to see if the Caps can finally thrive in the playoffs. Play: Washington +183 (Risking 2 units)

Miami Heat at Chicago Bulls

The Chicago Bulls (44-14, 33-24-1 ATS) got revenge for Sunday's loss to the
Knicks by beating the New Yorkers in the rematch in Chicago on Tuesday, and
they won that contest despite Derrick Rose being out after tweaking his
ankle. Meanwhile, the Miami Heat (40-16, 27-29 ATS) lost for the second time in
three home games vs. the Boston Celtics on Tuesday to fall one game further
behind the Bulls, so maybe Miami is happy to be hitting the road here. The
top two seeds in the Eastern Conference do battle Thursday night from the
United Center in Chicago, IL at 8:00 ET on TNT.

The Bulls opened up a three-game lead in the conference and amazingly
improved to 16-7 straight up in the 23 games that Rose has missed this season
with the win on Tuesday. Still, there has to be at least a little concern about
Rose's fragility this season, as he injured the ankle during Sunday's game
in his first game back after missing the previous 12 games with a groin
injury. Chicago still has the best record in the NBA and it has even been the
second best team in the league to bet on, as the Bulls' 33-24-1 mark against
the spread is second best behind only San Antonio (33-19-3 ATS). Still, the
Bulls will need Rose if they want to win an NBA Championship this season
despite the fact that their other players have risen up in his absence. It was
Richard Hamilton who turned back the clock to lead the club in scoring with
20 points on Tuesday with Luol Deng following close behind with 19, and the
defense was its usual self in the 98-86 triumph. That Chicago defense is
second in the league in points allowed at 88.9 per game and fourth in field goal
percentage against at 42.7 percent, and do not forget that the Bulls have
already beaten the Heat without Rose once this season here in Chicago on
March 14th in a rare 106-102 shootout as three-point home underdogs.

The Heat looked to have turned a corner last week when they had a statement
win over the team with the best record in the Western Conference, the
Oklahoma City Thunder, but they have lost two of three since then with a win vs.
a bad Detroit Pistons team sandwiched between losses to the Memphis
Grizzlies and the Celtics. Perhaps getting out of Miami could serve as good therapy,
and the Heat are over .500 at 16-12 straight up on the road this season.
However, they are only 13-15 ATS in those games. The Heat are also on a 3-7
ATS run away from home with the covers coming vs. the Toronto Raptors, the
Pistons and the Philadelphia 76ers, which is hardly a "Who's Who" of the NBA
elite right now! Will Miami now make a statement on the road vs. the team with
the best record in the NBA?

This head-to-head series has been dominated by the underdogs and the
'under", as the dogs have gone 7-3-1 in the last 11 meetings overall and the
'under' is 8-3 in the last 11 encounters here in Chicago with that last matchup
being a rare exception. The underdogs are 2-0 ATS this year with the Bulls
being the dogs both times, as Miami failed to cover the first meeting this
season down in South Beach, winning just 97-93 as a 4-point favorite. That
first meeting did stay 'under' the total of 192.

double-dime bet 957 Mia (-107) 5dimes vs 958 PHI

Analysis: "Game of the Week"
PLAY: MIAMI
RATING: DOUBLE DIME PLAY

Philadelphia exploded for 7 runs last night after only scoring 8 in their first 4 games total. I expect Philadelphia to revert back to the norm tonight which will be the Phillies struggling for runs. Tonight they face lefty Mark Buehrle who was razor sharp i×n his first start at Cincinnati giving up just 2 runs in 6 innings of work. I expect Buehrle to have early season success as he pitched has pitched his career in the American League until signing with Miami and his former manager. This will give Buehrle a huge advantage over the hitters the first time thru the league as they won't be familiar with his stuff. Tonight Miami faces Joe Blanton who hasn't been the most reliable pitcher on the Phillies staff over the last few years should give us the opportunity to put up some runs tonight. I have Miami winning 5-2.

WUNDERDOG
NBA 22-15 Last 37 picks +$1300
Game: Los Angeles Clippers at Minnesota (8:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Game Total UNDER 194.5 -110

A lot was expected out of the Los Angeles Clippers this season, and for the most part they have delivered. Aside from a 7-12 stretch this team has been a sterling 28-11 in their other 39 games. The noticeable change is their realization that they have to play both ends of the floor to be in the hunt for a Championship. They have delivered that message on the court, holding 11 of their last 12 opponents under 100 points. Minnesota appeared to have turned the corner, but have really struggled of late playing to a 4-15 mark in their last 19 games - losers of seven straight. The offense has struggled as they have been limited to 94 points or less in six of their last nine. The Clippers defense has not suffered off of no rest as they have played to a 16-6 mark to the UNDER in their last 22, while the same can be said for the T-Wolves who are now 5-1 to the UNDER in their last six off no rest. The UNDER has ruled the roost in each of the last four meetings, and will again in this one.
Play the UNDER.
