Jonathan Quick is definitely better than the beginning of the season has show shown while Ville Husso is every bit as good as his first game indicated. Quick still has a .903 save percentage, which is decent but needs to be better. Neither team has been aggressive in order to get shots up as the Kings are attempting 30.3 shots per game, which is 19th in this young season while the Red Wings are shooting 31 shots per game, which ranks 18th. The under has hit in each of the previous four Kings games against Eastern Conference opponents as well as being 7-2-1 in the last 10 Red Wings Monday games.

Vladimir Tarasenko and Karill Kaprizov continue their scoring duel when the St. Louis Blues host the Minnesota Wild in Game 6 of their first-round Western Conference series. Kaprizov scored twice in Game 5 Tuesday to give the Wild a 2-1 lead, but Tarasenko responded with a third-period hat trick to give the Blues a 5-2 victory.  Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington has won both starts since replacing Ville Husso in the nets after Game 3. His ability to handle the puck behind the net helped the depleted Blues defense corps, which regained Nick Leddy and Robert Bortuzzo in Game 5 but is still missing regulars Torey Krug and Marco Scandella due to lower-body injuries. Consider that the Over is 10-1-1 in Wild last 12 following a loss of 3 or more goals and 20-7-1 in Wild last 28 after scoring 2 goals or less in their previous game.

The Reds, last in the NL, responded to their first series win last weekend against Pittsburgh by winning another against NL Central leader Milwaukee, taking two of three, including a 14-11 win Wednesday. The series loss in Cincinnati didn't seem to dampen Pittsburgh's desire. The Pirates bounced back to take two of three from the NL's top team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, including a 5-3 win Wednesday. Also consider that the Over is 13-2-1 in Reds last 16 overall and 18-5-3 in Reds last 26 games vs. a right-handed starter.

The first-round playoff matchup between the Pittsburgh Penguins and visiting New York Rangers has heated up off the ice going into Game 4 today. But they're not sniping at each other. Rather, both clubs are expressing faith in their own game. Perhaps that is at least partly due to the way the series has arrived at the Penguins leading 2-1 -- a 4-3 triple-overtime Pittsburgh win, a 5-2 Rangers win and Saturday, as the series shifted to Pittsburgh, a 7-4 Penguins win that featured New York erasing a three-goal deficit only to have Pittsburgh seal it with three goals in the third period. Game 4 also is in Pittsburgh.

The Blue Jays are starting a 10-game homestand with the series against the American League East rival Red Sox. Boston will start right-hander Nathan Eovaldi (1-0. 3.68 ERA) in the opener against right-hander Jose Berrios (1-0, 6.35). Eovaldi allowed one run in 4 2/3 innings Tuesday against Toronto and did not factor in the decision. He gave up seven hits and one walk while striking out six in the game won 2-1 by Boston. Berrios earned the win on Wednesday at Boston when he allowed one run, eight hits and one walk while striking out six in six innings. Toronto won 6-1. Consider that the Under is 21-7-1 in Red Sox last 29 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30.

The Rockies haven't played since Wednesday, when they lost 9-6 to the Philadelphia Phillies in Denver. They are off to an 8-4 start but have only played two road games so far. Colorado is looking to become a better road team after going 26-54 away from home last season. Additionally, consider that the Over is 33-15 in Tigers last 48 interleague home games vs. a left-handed starter.

Rating: 2 Units

Visiting players get a little more skip in their steps when they play in Denver. The thinner air helps the ball travel farther, and sometimes home run totals go up in a series. That means despite nursing a sore right elbow, Phillies star Bryce Harper will not miss a chance at the plate. Harper had a single as the designated hitter on Monday in Philadelphia's 4-1 loss to the Colorado Rockies, a role he will retain over the next two games. Philadelphia will send right-hander Kyle Gibson (1-1, 3.09 ERA) to the mound against left-hander Kyle Freeland (0-2, 10.00) on Tuesday in the middle game of a three-game set. Freeland, the Rockies' Opening Day starter, has struggled this season, though. On top of his double-digit ERA, batters are hitting .350 against him.

If you are going to tail, I recommend doing it soon because this total has dropped to 8 at many books. Cincinnati is a great hitters' park but the wind is blowing in a bit today and that game time should have some affect on batters in terms of shadows around home plate. Yes, the Guardians have been raking the past two days -- Steven Kwan!?!? -- in Kansas City but Reds starter Tyler Mahle was good in his season debut and is countered by former Cy Young winner Shane Bieber of the Guards (that's my shortened nickname for them), and he should largely shut down Cincinnati.

Rating: 2 Units

The main reason I like this under is because both teams have their top bullpen options available. I don’t completely trust Elieser Hernandez or Michael Lorenzen, but both teams have options to bring players in early if need be. Neither of these teams have been scoring much lately, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see a top bat on either side get the day off. I think this ends up around 5-4 at the highest, take the under.

New Jersey somehow scored seven goals on stellar Rangers netminder Igor Shesterkin and then his backup Tuesday, yet another nonsensical result when New Jersey was down 2-0 after one. Just stupidity. Well, the Devils may allow seven tonight themselves but on principle I pretty much will always go Under this number. The Leafs have been held to three goals or fewer in three of their past four.

The Devils probably will be starting Jon Gillies in net and he's not great, but Chicago is the third-worst offensive team in the NHL. The Hawks should start Marc-Andre Fleury, and he's more than capable of holding the Devils to one or zero goals (has done so to three of his past five opponents). In fact, I expect a major offensive letdown for New Jersey after a shocking 6-1 win in Pittsburgh on Thursday. Probably my only NHL play today as the board is awful, in my opinion. Frankly, don't love much on the NBA or college hoops boards, either. Weird day. The Under is 5-2-1 in the Blackhawks' past eight overall.

This may look like a high posted total at first glance, but the Lightning are on an 'over' tear right now while the Devils aren't stopping anyone - quite simply a mess at the back-end. Here, we'll note that the 'over' is 7-1 with the Devils coming off consecutive games scoring two goals or less this season, as is the case here, with that spot producing an average total of 7.3 goals. The 'over' is 6-1 in the Bolts last seven games with the winning side scoring at least five goals in five of those seven contests. Tampa Bay should have little trouble taking advantage of a Devils squad that has allowed 4.0 goals per game on the road this season and has been lit up for 16 goals over its last four games alone. The first matchup between these two teams this season totalled eight goals in a 5-3 Devils victory here in Tampa.

Chicago won the first game between the clubs by a score of 4-2. I think they'll at least reach that number of goals here on Monday. Chicago is off a 3-0 win over Anaheim. The Hawks have scored three or more goals now in six of their last nine games. Defense has been the issue for Chicago this year, ranked 22nd in goals against this season. Seattle has lost nine in a row. The Kraken have struggled on both ends of the ice this year. They rank 24th in goals per game, but 31st in goals against. I believe Chicago can continue its recent offensive form and I look for Seattle to find the back of the net a couple of times tonight as well.

Here’s something from the ‘Did You Know?’ department: Over the last three months of NFL play, who has been the league’s best OVER team? Your obvious guesses would probably be teams like the Cowboys, Buccaneers, Chiefs or Bills (the top 4 scoring teams in the NFL this year). But it’s actually the NEW YORK JETS. After starting the season with 3 straight UNDERS, the Jets have actually gone a very surprising 10-3 O/U since the start of October... with a very gaudy average of 56.5 combined PPG! So that’s where we are going this week, as we play the OVER in the AFC EAST Division game between the JETS and BILLS.

Both expected goalies were rusty after the break; in fact, they were unexpectedly poor.  Columbus gave up 7 goals, and while that number was especially high, high goals against has been an ugly trend for the Blue Jackets.  The Lightning came out flat, and were shut out by the Rangers, so look for a lot more snap and crackle on Tuesday.  Both teams have decent goals-for figures; Columbus's defense has not been impressive.  The Total is only average for this game at the moment.  I like the OVER here. A motivated Lightning team will take it to the Jackets and ride this game over.

The Rockets had mostly sidestepped COVID-related issues prior to Monday. They played without six rotation players after D.J. Augustin, Kenyon Martin Jr., Garrison Mathews and Jae'Sean Tate all entered health and safety protocols in advance of a 123-99 loss to the Charlotte Hornets. Houston also played without its starting backcourt of Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) and rookie Jalen Green (rest) while taking a fourth consecutive loss, but both should be available Tuesday. Still, the Rockets were forced to lean on a pair of G-League call-ups (Trevelin Queen and Daishen Nix), while three other rookies logged significant minutes in the loss to the Hornets. Queen put up a team-best 17 points after never scoring more than two in an NBA game previously. Consider that the over is 11-1 in Rockets last 12 games playing on 0 days rest.

Cleveland overcame COVID-19 absences of its own to beat the Raptors -- who were missing 10 players due to COVID -- 144-99 in Cleveland. Toronto was missing its top five scorers, all of whom were in the NBA's health and safety protocols. The Raptors had just four players from their regular roster available. Cleveland gained its most lopsided victory of the season despite having seven players in the health and safety protocols, including Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley.

Prepare for a rare ‘Ground and Pound' offensive game plan from the host Chiefs. After all, Pittsburgh has been gouged on the ground as of late (200+ rushing yards allowed L2 games), and has in fact... the 3rd worst rushing defense in the entire league. We’ll confidently Go Low knowing that the Steelers have gone 2-19 O/U in their last 21 non-division road games when the OU line is 53 < points. Factor in a hot Kansas City defense that’s allowing only 13.3 ppg in their last seven games, and we’re on the right side.

The Jaguars are the perfect under team. Kenpom makes them the worst offense in all of Division I. They also play at one of the slowest paces in the country. This has allowed the under to cash in all nine of their games against Division I opponents. The Eagles also play at a very slow pace. Their offense is not good either. They are only averaging 64.9 PPG against Division I teams. This game is going to be played at a criminally slow pace and stay under this low total.
