Ice picks: Today’s best NHL bets
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Minnesota at Dallas (-140, 5)

Injuries have the Stars’ stock falling. They’ve dropped four straight heading into Monday’s game with Sergei Zubov, Jere Lehtinen, Jussi Jokinen and Philippe Boucher all hurting.

To make matters worse, captain Brenden Morrow and goaltender Marty Turco can’t shake out of terrible slumps.

Dallas, which had scored 20 goals over a four-game winning streak in late December, has just four goals during its recent slump.

Pick: Under


New York Islanders at Edmonton (-115, 5)

Sheldon Souray’s back in the lineup, but he’s far from 100 percent. He missed two months with a sprained shoulder and is just trying to play through the pain now that he’s back on the ice.

"I don't want to make it sound worse than it is, but it is something we'll have to monitor,” Souray told the Edmonton Sun before his Oilers topped the Rangers in a shootout. “We need to be a little cautious because it was starting to get to the point where I wasn't being very effective. We took a step back, got the treatment and I'm starting to feel a little better."

Souray picked up a power play assist in 29 minutes of ice time against the Rangers. Even though his shoulder injury will hamper him in the trenches in his own zone, he’s still a huge asset with the man advantage.

Pick: Oilers


Nashville at Anaheim (-171, 5)

When Scott Niedermeyer’s on his game, he’s one of the best offensive defensemen in the league. He’s going to need some time to get back to that elite level after sitting back to mull over retirement for the first few months of the season, but he’s already making a difference with the Ducks.

Niedermeyer has five points in just nine games, helping the Ducks to a 6-2-1 run following his return.

Pick: Anaheim

Tips and Trends (Updated)

Denver Nuggets at Phoenix Suns (9 PM ET)

The Denver Nuggets enter this game looking for their fourth straight win, and Allen Iverson has been leading the way. Iverson is averaging 37 ppg during the streak, and now he faces the Phoenix Suns in which allowed 70 points to the veteran in two games last season. EDGE: NUGGETS
Amare Stoudemire has made big plays all season for Phoenix, averaging 22 points and 9 rebounds, but he has been even better over the Suns last five games, averaging 28 points and 12 rebounds. Problem is Stoudemire was shutdown in two meetings against Denver last year to only 25 points combined. EDGE: NUGGETS
Suns leader Steve Nash is on pace to lead the NBA in assists for the fourth straight season, as he's averaging a career-best 12 per game. Nash has averaged 18 points and 11 assists in 11 games against Denver since joining the Suns in 2004-05. EDGE: SUNS
The Suns are leading the league in points for the fourth straight season, averaging 109 ppg. The Nuggets are the fourth-highest scoring team in the league, averaging 107 ppg. EDGE: OVER
Nuggets are 9-3 ATS in their last 12 Monday games.
Suns are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 home games. (Bet Denver +7 at BetUS - the best line available at last check!)
The UNDER is 9-3 in Phoenix's last 12 games vs. the Western Conference.


San Antonio Spurs at Golden State Warriors (NBA | 10:30 PM ET)

The Southwest Division leading San Antonio Spurs finally have their top three players back on the court together, in Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili, and Tim Duncan. “We’ve missed him (Ginobili) as he is our finisher, and it’s good to have him back,” said Duncan. That doesn't bode well for a Golden State Warriors team that has lost back-to-back games against other top Southwest Division teams. EDGE: SPURS
The Warriors back-to-back losses were against Dallas and New Orleans. Golden State hadn't dropped consecutive games since opening the season with a six-game losing streak. Warriors guard Baron Davis said, “We are not giving an effort on the defensive end.” Golden State is allowing 107 ppg overall on the season, and 108 over its last five. EDGE: SPURS
The Warriors won the first meeting this season against the Spurs 96-84 at home on Dec. 11. Golden State held Parker and Ginobili to 9-for-28 shooting, and the entire team to just 38 percent for the game. Spurs center Tim Duncan did not play, and is now questionable tonight with a swollen left knee. EDGE: WARRIORS
Spurs are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games overall.
Warriors are 9-2 in their last 11 games vs. Southwest Division.
The UNDER is 7-2 in San Antonio's last 9 games vs. Western Conference opponents.
The UNDER is 9-3 in San Antonio's last 12 games overall.
