We don't subscribe to any one 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 a bunch of 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. The actual contestants on the field of play rarely enter into our equation when making selections, unless it's a Top 3 player like a LeBron James or Aaron Rodgers etc. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions, are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.
This particular play is based on a couple of common sense factors:
Revenge: Both teams are struggling with consistency on both ends of the ice, but the Rangers play with revenge today after falling 5-2 to the Wild on December 17th.
Home ice advantage: Despite their recent struggles, the Rangers have done a great job this season in taking care of team's in front of the home town crowd, going 18-5-2 in the Big Apple. Conversely, the Wild are a poor 9-10-5 away from friendly confines.
ATS statistics: Note that the Wild are just 8-9 (-4.2 units) in all non-conference games this year, while the Rangers are 12-8 (+2.2 units) in the same position.
The bottom line: Both teams are also dealing with injury issues, but the home ice advantage, the revenge factor along with what we feel to be a great price pushes the scales in favor of NEW YORK in this one.
