3 Units Rangers / Islanders Under 5.5
With the trading deadline here and gone, the one thing for sure is that Yann Dannis has been great in goal for the Islanders. He’s given up only 6 goals in his last 5 starts. The under stats are amazing for this contest: The under is 14-2 in the Rangers’ last 16 road games and the under is 10-4 in the Islanders’ last 14 home games. The Under is 9-1-1 in the last 11 meetings in NY.

VERNON CROY
NBA TNT Smash
Portland Trail Blazers vs. Denver Nuggets
Play:Denver -5.5
20 Units, Take Denver ATS, This pick falls into one of my top NBA systems and the Nuggets are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games when playing a team that has a losing record on the road. Portland is just 7-19 ATS in their last 26 games as a road dog of +5.0 to +10.5 points and they are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games when playing with 0 days rest. Denver looks to avenge their 9 point Dec.23 road loss to the Trail Blazers and they are 26-7-1 ATS in their last 34 games when favored by -5.0 to -10.5 points. Denver is 23-9-1 ATS in their last 33 games against the Trail Blazers and I look for them to bounce back with a strong outing at home after dropping 2 straight road games. Take Denver who beat the Lakers by 11 points in their last home game as my NBA TNT Smash.
NHL Dog of the Week
Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Washington Capitals
Play:Toronto +235
20 Units, Take Toronto ML, We are getting solid value here Thursday night with the Toronto Maple Leafs who are playing with a lot of intensity lately. The Leafs are 4-1 in their last 5 games and their last 7 games have been decided by just 1 goal. The Capitals are coming off of back to back losses by an average of 3.5 goals per game and they have allowed an average of 4.2 goals per game over their last 5 games. Take Toronto as my NHL Dog of the Week for Thursday.
NHL Smash
Columbus Blue Jackets vs. Nashville Predators
Play:Columbus +120
20 Units, Take Columbus ML, We are getting solid value here with the Blue Jackets Thursday night who are 4-1 in their last 5 games as a dog of +110 to +150. The Blue Jackets are 7-3 in their last 10 games when playing with 1 days rest and Nashville is just 1-5 in their last 6 games after allowing 5 goals or more in their previous game. Columbus defensively despite being 2-3 SU over their last 5 games have allowed an average of just 2.32 shots on goal per game. There is nothing this team would like more right now than to end their 9 game losing streak in Nashville, that's right the Blue Jackets have lost 9 of their last 9 games in Nashville but that streak ends tonight. Take Columbus as my NHL Smash.
