Ice picks: Today's best NHL bets

Pittsburgh Penguins at New York Rangers (110, 5.5)

If the Rangers had any goals left in the tank, they spent them all during last week’s two-game winning streak in which they piled up 14 goals against the Canadiens and Lightning.

New York hasn’t found the net in its past two games, getting shutout by the Flyers and Habs, who defeated the Rangers 6-0 in Montreal Saturday night. The Canadiens actually had one less shot than New York (32 to 31) but erupted for a four-goal second period in which they outshot the Rangers 11-7.

Saturday’s loss was the fourth time New York has been shutout in the past seven games, going 2-5 in that span with an over/under record of 3-3-1.

"Once in a blue moon, sometimes it's going to happen in sports," Chris Drury told the New York Daily News. "But it's happened to us a few times already this year."

Star goaltender Henrik Lundqvist was yanked six minutes into the second period after allowing four goals on 15 shots. In his last start against the Penguins, Lundqvist gave up four goals on 32 shots in a 5-3 Pittsburgh victory back in late November.

Pick: Pittsburgh


St. Louis Blues at Calgary Flames (-160, 5)

The Flames are burning through options on how to stop their six-game losing skid. Calgary has just three wins this month and dropped its sixth straight contest, 3-1, to the Chicago Blackhawks Saturday.

The current losing streak has prompted trade rumors around the team. General Manager Darryl Sutter told the media not to expect a severe overhaul in talent while he is trying to be patient with his team.

“The last 10 games we haven’t played very well,” Sutter told the Calgary Herald. “The first 20, the first 40, we were in and out of first place (in the Northwest Division) on a game-to-game basis — that’s pretty awesome. The last 10 we haven’t played very well, and we need to play better.”

The Flames have struggled at both ends of the ice. During this six-game funk, Calgary has scored only nine total goals – 1.5 goals per game – and has allowed opponents to light the lamp four times a night.

Add to those woes a shaky dressing room where players don’t know where they could end up by the end of the month.

Pick: St. Louis

Pick 'n' Roll: Today's best NBA bets

New Orleans Hornets at Portland Trail Blazers (N/A)

Just when the Blazers thought their injury issues were working themselves out, their backcourt is two men down heading into the week.

Brandon Roy returned from the tender hamstring injury last Wednesday, but left after playing just over 18 minutes. He sat of the next two games against the Celtics and Pistons, in which the team went 1-1 and covered as road underdogs in both, and is expected to miss at least two more games.

The talented two guard leads Portland in scoring with 23 points per game and is the latest player on the team’s laundry list of ailments. Fellow guard Jered Bayless is also out with an injury. He sprained his ankle against Boston and sat out this weekend’s tilt with Detroit.

Bayless, who is listed as questionable, had picked up his production with Roy out of action. He scored 18 points in last week’s win over Philadelphia and netted 12 points against the Celtics before leaving the game.

That leaves the Blazers with just three reserve players and no one to guard New Orleans point man Chris Paul, who is coming off a 26-point, 10-assist performance in a loss to the Nuggets Saturday.

Pick: New Orleans


Charlotte Bobcats at Denver Nuggets (N/A)

The Nuggets are making their backers sweat in recent games. Denver has gone to overtime in two of its last three contests, including Saturday’s 116-110 win over the New Orleans Hornets.

That win was the Nuggets’ sixth straight victory, however, they have posted a dismal 2-3-1 mark against the spread in this span.

All-Star forward Carmelo Anthony, who scored 30 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in the win, rolled his ankle late in the game but stayed on the floor to ice the game with two free throws.

"It's better than I thought," Anthony told reporters following the game. "It looked pretty bad at first, but it's better than I thought. We'll see how it is (Sunday)."

Denver has had trouble putting opponents away in the second half. The Nuggets took a 79-78 lead into the fourth quarter Saturday and Anthony missed two chances to end the game in regulation.

The Nuggets have an impressive 20-3 record inside the Pepsi Center, but books have pumped up the chalk so much that backers boast just a 12-10-1 ATS mark.

Pick: Charlotte

Game of day: Cleveland Cavaliers at Miami Heat

Cleveland Cavaliers at Miami Heat (+1.5, 190)

Prior engagement

The Cavaliers and Heat have met once this season, with Cleveland going into Miami as a 1-point underdog and coming away with a 111-104 victory on Nov. 12.

LeBron James (34 points) and Dwyane Wade (36 points) put on an entertaining two-man show as the superstars went a combined 31-of-38 from the free-throw line. James, however, got plenty of help from three teammates who contributed at least 14 points, including 18 courtesy of J.J. Hickson.

In Monday’s meeting, however, the Cleveland supporting cast will be considerably undermanned.

Infirmary report

While the Cavs are without question one of the best teams in the NBA, they are also one of the most banged up.

Delonte West (7.4 ppg, 2.9 apg) fractured his left ring finger in a victory over the Lakers Thursday night and will be re-evaluated later this week. West joins backcourt mate Mo Williams on the sidelines, as Williams (16.9 ppg, 5.1 apg) is expected to miss up to six weeks with a shoulder injury before a possible late-February return.

“Hopefully it shows the depth of our team; starting Delonte and getting (Daniel Gibson) back into the rotation and seeing if we can hold down the fort until he’s able to come back,” coach Mike Brown told reporters about playing with Williams.

The return of Jamario Moon could alleviate some of Cleveland’s issues, but Moon has missed eight straight games with an abdominal strain and he is listed as questionable.

Miami, on the other hand, is enjoying a clean bill of health.

King’s court

LeBron (29.9 ppg) has been especially dominant lately and he will surely be looking to put the team on his back to an even greater extent in the absence of West and Williams.

James has scored more than 30 points in seven of his last eight contests, including a 41-point performance in a win over Portland Jan. 10. He is coming off back-to-back 37-point showings in victories over the Lakers and Thunder. LeBron has not scored fewer than 23 points since a trip to Atlanta Dec. 29, a span of 12 games.

“I don't really pay attention to where I rank in the scoring leaders,” noted LeBron, who is now No. 1 in scoring, 0.2 ppg ahead of Carmelo Anthony. “I don't look at myself as a scorer. I go out there and score sometimes, but I'd much rather be known as an all-around player. I’m just playing my game.”

Hot and cold

The Heat have been remarkably up-and-down this season and their last three games are a perfect microcosm. Last Wednesday, Miami went into Charlotte and got embarrassed by the Bobcats 104-65.

“We have a very, very, very ugly side to us,” coach Erik Spoelstra told the media afterward.

But how did Spoelstra’s team respond? By suddenly showing their other side, of course.

In back-to-back games Friday and Saturday, the Heat crushed Washington 112-88 on the road before returning home and hammering Sacramento 115-84.

“It's in our heads,” explained Michael Beasley (16.2 ppg, 6.7 rpg). “Some games we've got all the energy in the world. Some games we just don't. I think if we stay consistent, there's no limit on how far we can go this season.”

Trending topics

Although the Cavs have won four straight games and six of their last seven, they are not exactly on fire ATS. Cleveland is 1-4-1 ATS in its last six games overall, 1-4-1 ATS in its last six on the road and 1-4 ATS in its last five against Eastern Conference opposition.

The Heat, on the other hand, are 5-2 ATS in their last seven outings overall, 5-2 ATS in their last seven at home and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 against the Eastern Conference.

Neither the Cavs (20-23-2 O/U) nor the Heat (20-23 O/U) have been particularly strong over/under plays this season, however, the under has been more successful with both. The under is 4-1 in Miami’s last five overall, but the over is 5-2 in Cleveland’s last seven overall.

Head-to-head, the Cavs are 5-2 ATS in their last seven trips to Miami. The over is 4-0 in the Heat’s last four home dates with Cleveland.
