AAA's BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT (LAY IT & CA$H IT!)
(NHL) Edmonton vs. San Jose, 12/09/2014 5:30 PM, Score: 2 - 5
Money Line: -213.00 San Jose (Home)
Result: Win
This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the San Jose Sharks.

Some times I feel it's necessary to completely dissect every single angle, different player match-ups, scheduling, motivational and situational factors etc, and in others I believe that a "common sense" approach is the best way to handicap a contest. After losing 2-1 to the Oilers in Edmonton on Sunday, I think the home side lays the hammer down here and takes care of business in front of the home town crowd. And from a trend based stand point, there's no question that this is an incredibly strong play, note that Edmonton is a pathetic 1-8 (-6.8 units) following a divisional contest, while San Jose is a spectacular 4-2 (+2 units) this season after scoring 1 goal or less in its previous contest. The situation, the numbers and the trends all point to SAN JOSE as the savvy move here in my opinion.
