This Atlantic Division matchup will get started at 7 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 5, and it can be viewed live on Fox Sports Sun.
<h2>Montreal Canadiens at Tampa Bay Lightning Odds</h2>
Montreal (+170) is currently the underdog to Tampa Bay (-195) and the Over/Under (O/U) is set at 7 goals. The odds for betting the total stand at -105 money on the over and -115 for the under.

The Lightning are 41-25 straight up (SU) and have earned moneyline bettors 0.7 units this season. That winning percentage, ranked second in the NHL in this young season, is a regression from the 62-20 record that the team managed during last year's regular season campaign. Through 66 regular season matches, 34 of the team's games have gone over the total, while 28 have gone under and just four have pushed. The team's 21-12 SU at home this year.

Tampa Bay has been able to convert on 23.0 percent of its power play opportunities this season, a mark that places them in the top-10 among NHL teams. On the other hand, its penalty kill is ranked ninth overall, and it's successfully killed off 82.0 percent of all penalties.

As a team, Tampa Bay has been whistled for penalties 4.1 times per game overall this season, and 5.6 per game over its last five outings home outings. The team has been forced to defend opposition power plays for a whopping 13.8 minutes per game over its last five matchups, in total.

Averaging 28.0 saves per game with a .915 save percentage, Andrei Vasilevskiy (33 wins, 16 losses, and three OT losses) has been the top option in goal for the Lightning this year. If the Bolts choose to rest him, however, head coach Jon Cooper could go with Curtis McElhinney (8-9-9 record, .908 save percentage, 2.83 goals against average).

The Bolts will continue to rely on leadership out of Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos. Kucherov (80 points) has tallied 31 goals and 49 assists and has recorded multiple points 25 times this year. Stamkos has 29 goals and 37 assists to his credit and has recorded at least one point in 41 games.

In the other locker room, Montreal is 31-37 straight up (SU) and has lost 14.3 units for moneyline bettors this year. A total of 33 of its outings have gone under the total, while 32 have gone over and just three have pushed. Montreal's 17-15 SU as an away team this season.

Montreal has converted on 18.5 percent of its power play opportunities this year, a mark that's right around league average. On the other hand, its penalty kill unit is ranked 21st overall and it's successfully killed off 78.6 percent of all opponent power plays.

Montreal's skaters have been whistled for penalties 3.4 times per game in total this season, and 4.0 per game over their last five contests. The team's been forced to kill penalties just 8.4 minutes per game over their last 10 outings.

Carey Price (27.6 saves per game) has been the primary choice in goal for Montreal. Price has 27 wins, 29 losses, and six OT losses to his credit, and has registered a .910 save percentage and 2.75 goals against average this year.

For the visiting Canadiens, much of the offense will run through Tomas Tatar, who has 39 assists and 22 goals this year.

For both of these clubs, the over has hit in three of their last five games.

Montreal's attempted 34.2 shots per contest overall this season (the second-most in the NHL), and 32.7 in its last 10 games.

Extra-man opportunities could play a key role in tonight's matchup. The Canadiens are 9-10 when they serve fewer penalty minutes than their opponent and 22-27 in games where they serve fewer than 10 total penalty minutes. The Lightning are 14-7 when the team serves fewer penalty minutes than the opposition and 25-13 in games where their penalty minutes are in the single digits.

Montreal (4-1 in shootouts) has more shootout experience coming into this one. Tampa Bayemerged victorious in both of its shootouts this year.

Montreal is ranked 21st with 6.9 takeaways per game. That figure has trended upward lately, as the team has averaged 7.6 takeaways over its last 10 games and 8.0 takeaways over its last five.

Tampa Bay could hold the upper hand if this one comes down to the wire. The team's 18-13 in games decided by one goal, while Montreal is just 15-22 in such games.

Montreal Canadiens at Tampa Bay Lightning Betting Preview 3/5/20

<p>The NHL betting action is heating up, as the 2022 Stanley Cup is just around the corner, so we are taking a closer look at Sunday night’s Metropolitan Division showdown from Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia to get you the best Penguins vs. Flyers betting pick along with the latest odds update on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSI Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<p>Pittsburgh and Philadelphia wrap up their four-game regular-season series. The Penguins look to sweep the lowly Flyers and grab their fifth consecutive victory over Philadelphia.&nbsp;</p>



<h2>The Pens play without rest                 </h2>



<p>The Pittsburgh Penguins will meet the Flyers on the second day of a back-to-back set, and their Saturday afternoon’s clash against the Detroit Red Wings on the road has been excluded from the analysis. The Pens visited Motown searching for a rare consecutive victory.</p>



<p>Pittsburgh hasn’t won two straight contests since March 22. Last Thursday, the Penguins blanked the Boston Bruins 4-0 as slight -120 home favorites to bounce back from a 2-1 defeat at TD Garden in Boston.</p>



<p>The Pens are without their first-choice goalie, as Tristan Jarry (34-18-6; 2.42 GAA) suffered a broken bone in his foot a week ago. He’s considered week-to-week, while Casey DeSmith (9-5-5; 2.75 GAA) was projected to patrol the crease Saturday in Detroit. We should see Louis Domingue between the pipes Sunday, and the 30-year-old netminder has started only one game so far this season.</p>



<h2>The Flyers just snapped their six-game skid          </h2>



<p>The Philadelphia Flyers (24-43-11) are coming off a 6-3 road victory over the Montreal Canadiens. They stopped a six-game slide, while Martin Jones got his first win in five appearances. The 32-year-old goalie posted 31 saves against the Habs, improving to 11-17-3 on the season.</p>



<p>With Carter Hart on the injury list, Jones should get another starting call Sunday against the Penguins. Martin owns an awful 3.51 GAA and .897 save percentage, and the Flyers surrender 3.62 goals per contest (27<sup>th</sup> in the NHL).</p>



<p>On the other side of the ice, Philadelphia is tallying only 2.60 goals per game (tied-28<sup>th</sup>) on an 8.5 shooting percentage (tied-29<sup>th</sup>). The Flyers are dead last in power-play percentage (12.0%) and rank 26<sup>th</sup> in penalty-killing percentage (75.3%).</p>



<h2>Trends:</h2>



<p><strong>Pittsburgh:</strong></p>



<ul><li>4-1 in the last five games against Philadelphia</li></ul>



<p><strong>Philadelphia:</strong></p>



<ul><li>1-6 in the last seven games overall</li><li>0-5 in the last five games at home</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-pittsburgh-penguins-vs-philadelphia-flyers-pick">Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Philadelphia Flyers Pick</h2>



<p>The Flyers have nothing to play for. They’ve been eliminated from the playoff contention, while the Penguins continue their battle for the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Conference. The Pens were tied with Boston and Washington for the sixth spot in the East on Saturday, so they desperately need a win over the Flyers.</p>



<p>On paper, Pittsburgh is a much better team than Phila. I’m expecting the Pens to satisfy the odds, though Louis Domingue’s presence in the crease could be a problem. Anyway, the Penguins’ offense should take full advantage of the Flyers’ shaky defense. Pittsburgh tallies 3.27 goals per game (11<sup>th</sup> in the NHL) and allows 2.67 in a return (4<sup>th</sup>).</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Pittsburgh Penguins&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>The Penguins’ defense is one of the best in the league, but with Louis Domingues in the net, the Flyers will have a nice opportunity to score a couple of goals. On the other side, I would be surprised if the Pens fail to score at least three goals.</p>



<p>The over is 4-1 in the last five encounters between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, and it is 10-2 in their previous 12 meetings. The Flyers have allowed four or more goals in each but one of their last seven outings at any location.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>

Chicago Bulls vs Brooklyn Nets Betting Pick & Prediction 3/29/24

Baseball bettors everywhere are wondering when the John Gant Regression Tour will set some dates. The Cardinals starter is on the mound on Saturday for St. Louis in a rare primetime game at Wrigley Field on a Saturday when two NL Central rivals get together for a FOX telecast.

The Chicago Cubs are favored over St. Louis here, as Kyle Hendricks will go on an extra day of rest after being pushed back from Friday’s start to Saturday. It will in fact be Gant for the Redbirds, who are hoping to even up the series after dropping Friday’s game by an 8-5 count.

The Cubs were in the -160 range at <strong><a href="http://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bovada/">Bovada Sportsbook</a></strong> on the overnights, but any Gant start is one to watch for line movement. Chicago is now up into the -175 range with a total of 9.
<h2><strong><u>St. Louis Cardinals</u></strong></h2>
No point in burying the lede here. Ask anybody about regression candidates in Major League Baseball and John Gant’s name will be one of the first to come up. Gant has a 2.63 ERA with a 5.78 xERA, a 4.56 FIP, and a 5.18 xFIP. Those Expected Stats really paint an ugly picture going forward for Gant. xERA incorporates a lot of different factors, including contact quality against.

Gant has worked 54.2 innings as a starter with 41 strikeouts and 37 walks. His 15% BB% is one of the highest among starting pitchers in baseball and he hasn’t really had the strikeouts to erase those walks. What has worked for Gant is that he has a .243 batting average against and has only allowed three home runs across his 11 starts.

Regression finally hit in his last start against Cincinnati with seven runs allowed on seven hits, including three home runs, in four innings. Many expected his regression to start on the road, away from the pitcher-friendly conditions of Busch Stadium, but it was destined to happen at some point. Many felt it would be in his previous start against the Dodgers and he threw six shutout innings instead.

The Cardinals are once again a bit of a laggard offensively. They went into play on Friday ranked 21st in wOBA and had a 93 wRC+, which means that they’ve been 7% below league average when adjusted for both park factors and also the league run environment. They’ve made better contact this season and have gotten good contributions from newcomer Nolan Arenado, but others have regressed.

The Cardinals bullpen ranks in the middle of the pack in FIP, but has a really high walk rate and has a much higher ERA at 4.42. The FIP of 4.01 ranked 15th entering play on Friday, but the Cardinals are in a bit of a precarious spot with their bullpen as well. They are living on a 5.7% HR/FB% right now.
<h2><strong><u>Chicago Cubs</u></strong></h2>
With three big free agent position players after the season, we expected the Cubs lineup to be better. Chicago will likely bid adieu to Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant, and Javier Baez at season’s end. Players in contract years are proven to do better offensively than their baselines, so that merits watching as we keep going forward through this 2021 season.

The Cubs offense put up eight runs on Friday to improve upon what was a borderline top-10 offense for this season. The Cubs are hitting for some more power this year and have been able to overcome one of the higher strikeout rates in baseball. They’ve also really enjoyed hitting at home this season. The Cubs were a top-10 offense at home entering play on Friday and had a big offensive day to move up the ranks a bit.

We’re still patiently waiting for Kyle Hendricks to look like the pitcher we’ve all seen in the past. Hendricks has a 4.59 ERA with a 5.48 FIP in his 68.2 innings of work. He’s got the same K/BB numbers that we are used to seeing, but the 31-year-old has lost his command rather suddenly.

Hendricks has allowed 17 home runs in 68.2 innings of work. For frame of reference, he allowed 19 in 177 innings in 2019 and 22 in 199 innings in 2018. He’s going to set a career-worst in that department barring serious injury and we’ve also seen huge spikes in his Hard Hit% and Barrel%. He is far and away having his worst season from a contact management standpoint.

The Cubs actually have a top-five bullpen this season. Nobody really saw that coming, but they do. They do have one of the league’s highest LOB% marks, but still rank in the top five in FIP. They’ve been really good and the bullpen has been an unexpected weapon for the team this season.
<h2><strong><u>Cardinals vs. Cubs Free Pick</u></strong></h2>
There is only one way to look in this game and it is the Cubs. John Gant’s underlying numbers look disastrous. It has warmed up in the Midwest now and we should see some pretty seasonable temperatures in Chicago. Gant is a guy that can thrive at Busch Stadium, but the road is where we should see the bulk of his problems. The hope would be that Kyle Hendricks can figure it out here, but he should get some good run support no matter what.

<strong>Pick: Chicago Cubs</strong>

Fresno State Bulldogs vs New Mexico Lobos Betting Pick & Prediction 9/21/24

<strong><u>Seattle</u></strong><strong><u> Mariners</u></strong>

The fire sale in the Pacific Northwest was something. Sure, the Seattle Mariners traded away Edwin Diaz and James Paxton, who combined to account for 25 percent of the team’s strikeouts last season. Sure, the Mariners traded Robinson Cano, lost Nelson Cruz via free agency, and don’t have many household names anymore, but a lot of people are treating this team like it will clearly be one of the worst in the American League.

That’s not to say that I love the roster by any means, but I’m thinking there might be some daily value on the Mariners.

The time was right for Jerry Dipoto to renovate the roster. Last year’s Mariners went 89-73, but they weren’t that good of a team. In fact, they had a negative run differential and overachieved by 12 games relative to their Pythagorean Win-Loss record. They were 36-21 in one-run games and a ridiculous 14-1 in extra inning games. Seattle was actually 83-69 against AL foes last year.

There are a ton of new faces, but some of them are kind of fun, like Mallex Smith and Domingo Santana. There are some aging professional hitters like Edwin Encarnacion and Jay Bruce that are on the downsides of their careers, but are still productive enough to stick. Mitch Haniger is a productive bat.

It is one of those things where it looks like a collection of castoffs and platoon players to a lot of people. Maybe it is. Maybe the rotation is absolutely that bad. The bullpen sure looks a lot different. There is just something about this team that makes me think we could make some money on them.

&nbsp;

<strong><u>Money Line Spots</u></strong>

Yusei Kikuchi is easily the most interesting guy in this rotation. There won’t be a ton of scouting reports on him early in the year. The Nippon Baseball League is a much different product than Major League Baseball. Strikeout rates are a lot lower and things are just a lot different. I’ll be curious to see how hitters adjust to Kikuchi and how he adjusts to them. Usually, I’ll give the pitcher the benefit of the doubt, especially one with some of that traditional Asian deception in his pitching motion.

Oddsmakers won’t really know how to price him. They’ll err on the side of caution and likely be a little bit strong on him in the early going, but this is also a depleted lineup and a very depleted bullpen, so it will be hard to give him too much respect.

Pitch-to-contact starters get very little respect in the betting markets, so Mike Leake, Felix Hernandez, and Wade LeBlanc will be bet against a lot. I won’t argue too much with that, though Safeco Field will provide a safety net for those guys.

I’d like to see how this offense performs, but I think we’re going to get chances to buy low on the M’s.

&nbsp;

<strong><u>Totals Spots</u></strong>

This is interesting. Seattle was 81-79-2 to the under last season. What happens with totals this year? The pitching staff is much worse on paper, but the ballpark is such an equalizer in terms of run production. The offense has taken some steps back as well. Will the Mariners actually end up being an over team? I happen to think the offense, at least when healthy, is better than what most believe.

The bullpen also helped the Mariners tilt ever so slightly to the under. Seattle’s pen was 10th in ERA and 12th in FIP. Because I would expect that to regress a fair amount, I really do think we’ll be able to seek out overs with this team.

Oddly enough, the Mariners outscored opponents 378-374 on the road last season and went 44-37. At home, the Mariners were outscored 337-299 and went 45-36. Scoring 3.7 runs per game at home is really not good. Maybe we’ll stick to the road overs, but I also feel like this lineup is constructed a little differently and may be able to manufacture some more chances at home this season.

&nbsp;

<strong><u>Individual Players to Watch</u></strong>

<strong>Mike Leake – </strong>I fully understand that Mike Leake isn’t very good, but he doesn’t hurt himself. Leake posted his third straight season with a BB% under five percent. He cut back the usage of his fastball last season, which can only help from a contact management standpoint, as he threw more changeups and curveballs again. He’s actually coming off of his best season with the changeup, which is the bread-and-butter pitch for rotation mate Marco Gonzales.

Leake’s sinker usage went down nine percent and was replaced by better pitches. Perhaps that trend continues this season. It would be a breath of fresh air and would make Leake at least worthy of consideration at home or worthy of consideration with an under ticket.

<strong>Marco Gonzales – </strong>This is a guy you should watch closely. If Gonzales can stay healthy, which has been his problem since he signed with pro ball, he has some chops. He posted a 4.00 ERA with a 3.43 FIP and a 3.59 xFIP. He excelled in the control department and most of his peripherals were at or above league average. Opposing batters only posted a .296 wOBA against Gonzales at Safeco Field.

His August was a huge concern, especially given his injury history that late in the year, but he rebounded extremely well in September with a .211 wOBA against over his last 21 innings. I really think 1st 5 bets with him will make some sense this season.

Memphis Tigers vs Tulane Green Wave Betting Pick & Prediction 11/28/24

<p>The 2024 Wimbledon Championships have been anything but predictable. Top seeds in the men's and women's draws, Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek, were eliminated by the quarter-finals. It has still been a good tournament for Italy, however, as seventh seed Jasmine Paolini is into her second consecutive grand slam final and 22-year-old Lorenzeo Musetti is up against Novak Djokovic in the men's semi-finals. Let's take a look at the three remaining matches in the tournament.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">ATP Wimbledon Semi-Finals</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Daniil Medvedev (<a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/s/betus/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">+260</a>) vs. Carlos Alcaraz (-360)</h3>



<p>Daniil Medvedev is looking to reach his second grand slam final this season, but he faces a tough task against world No. 3 and defending Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz. Medvedev was runner-up at the Australian Open, losing to Sinner in five sets after taking a 2-0 lead, and got his revenge over the world No. 1 in the Wimbledon quarter-finals. Alcaraz has had to grind for his wins over the last two weeks, most notably against Frances Tiafoe, who took him to five sets in the third round.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Medvedev is 2-4 in his career against Alcaraz and 1-1 at Wimbledon. Both of their matches at the All England Club were decided in straight sets, but I wouldn't expect a repeat performance on Friday. They've both played multiple four and five set matches already and Medvedev should be playing free and loose now that he finally beat Sinner, to whom he had lost five consecutive matches beforehand. </p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center"><a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/s/betus/">Sign up with Bet US for your SportsBook Bonus</a></h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Novak Djokovic (-952) vs. Lorenzo Musetti (+540)</h3>



<p>Musetti is a major underdog against Novak Djokovic, but he does have a victory over the former world No. 1 and eight-time Wimbledon winner. Djokovic hadn't played in a month prior to the start of the tournament and had concerns about his health due to a torn meniscus in his right knee. He hasn't had any issues and should be well rested after getting a walkover win in the quarters against Alex de Minaur.&nbsp;</p>



<p>This has potential to be Djokovic's easiest path to a grand slam final, especially since Musetti had never been past the fourth round at any grand slam before this week. However, the Italian beat Djokovic in three sets at the 2023 Monte-Carlo Rolex Masters and has twice taken him to five sets at the French Open.&nbsp;</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">WTA Wimbledon Final</h2>



<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Barbora Krejcikova (-140) vs. Jasmine Paolini (+120)</h3>



<p>In an unlikely women's final, world No. 32 Barbora Krejcikova takes on seventh-ranked Paolini, who is the first Italian woman to play in a final at the All England Club. Krejcikova is a former world No. 2 and one-time grand slam winner who has dealt with a debilitating back injury this year but has looked great at Wimbledon, recently earning a three-set win over Elena Rybakina. Paolini beat Donna Vekic in the semis.</p>



<p>There's <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/s/betus/">good upset potential</a> here as Paolini is being undervalued. She is 30-12 this season and is into her second straight grand slam final, while Krejcikova was just 7-9 coming into Wimbledon.</p>
