AAA's BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT (LAY IT & CA$H IT!)
(NHL) Detroit vs. Carolina,

This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Carolina Hurricanes.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based on common sense and strong/relevant ATS statistics:

As note that Detroit is just just 7-11 (-2.1 units) this year after scoring four goals or more in its previous contest, while Carolina is 23-19 (+3.4 units) in revenging a loss against an opponent this season.

The bottom line: We had a play on the Hurricanes last night and they'd lose 4-3 in OT to the Wings. Because of a "make up" game between these teams, this happens to be Detroit's third game in three nights. Detroit comes in having played four straight OT contests as well, going 3-1 in that stretch. Suffice it to say, we're fully expecting the Wings to come out "gassed" here and look for HURRICANES to win decisively. Lay the price.
