Thursday NHL Free play. My selection is on Dallas over Vancouver at 8:05 pm et on Thursday.

The Stars have undoubtedly had this game circled on their calendar as they've dropped seven straight meetings with the Canucks including a 2-0 setback in Vancouver earlier this season. I think they're well-positioned to end that skid on Thursday, however, as they play at home on two days' rest while the Canucks wrap up a four-game road trip (and play their third game in four nights). Dallas has reeled off three straight home wins to improve to 9-6 at home this season. The Stars are averaging an impressive 3.8 goals per game in Dallas this season. Note that the Stars are 24-16 in their last 40 games when seeking revenge for a loss in which they scored one goal or less. Take Dallas.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Memphis are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games when playing at home against Indiana.

- Indiana are 1-4 SU in their last 5 games.

- Indiana are 2-5 SU in their last 7 games played in December.

Verdict: The Value is on the home favorite.

This is a play on the EASTERN WASHINGTON EAGLES+15.5 for our Thursday Free Play. Washington has gotten off to a solid 7-3 start that includes a big win over Gonzaga but it remains overvalued and we saw that in its last game. The Huskies struggled to get by Seattle as it won by one point in double overtime and it now in a sandwich spot with Pac 12 play on deck. Washington is 4-1 at home with the loss coming against Nevada as a favorite and have covered just two of its four home games when laying points. The Huskies have won 12 straight in this series but covered just half of those with inflated numbers. Eastern Washington ran through the Big Sky Conference last season as it finished 16-2, part of a 23-11 overall record. The Eagles have three starters back and will be contenders again despite getting off to a 4-6 start this season. The schedule has played the part in that as Eastern Washington has played the No. 2 ranked schedule in the country. All six losses have come on the road against major conference teams that includes four Pac 12 teams along with Cincinnati and Mississippi. The Eagles only covered one of those Pac 12 games but experience in those goes a long way. Play (767) Eastern Washington Eagles

Mike Lundin

Lakers/Wolves NBA Free Pick

The Minnesota Timberwolves took a 122-113 loss in Philadelphia last night, but tonight the Wolves are back home at Target Center where they're 11-1 SU and 8-3-1 ATS. They'll be playing on short rest, but so are the Lakers as well after losing 124-108 to the Bulls in Chicago last night.

The Lakers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games and 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 0 days rest. The Timberwolves on the other hand are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games playing on 0 days rest.

2* FREE PICK ON THE WOLVES-5 -115

7* NBA - Lakers/Wolves Free Pick

PLAY ON: Lakers +6.5

I'll grab the 6.5-points with the Lakers on the road against the Timberwolves. Both teams will be on the 2nd of a back-to-back and playing their 3rd game in 4 nights. I don't know if LA will win the game, but 6.5 is too many for them to be catching in this spot. Lakers are going to be highly motivated to snap their 3-game losing streak and while they will be playing with tired legs, they are healthy for really the first time all season. LA lost by 16 last night in Chicago and that puts them in a great rebound spot, as the Lakers have gone 21-7 ATS over the last 3 seasons off a loss by 15 or more. Give me the Lakers +6.5!

1* FREE PLAY Calgary-145

The Flames are 13-14-1-4, while the Ducks are 12-19-0-0. The Flames come in off back-to-back victories at home over a couple of pretty good teams (4-2 over Tampa and 3-1 over Florida), and we're expecting this momentum to get carried over here on the road in this favorable matchup. The Ducks return home after going 2-2 on their road trip. That included two straight to close out, beating New Jersey 5-1 and Detroit 4-3. An imminent letdown does feel "imminent" to us though here. It's the first matchup of the season between the clubs, but we feel it's one that favors the Flames; consider Calgary on Thursday night!
