Ice Picks: Sunday's best NHL wagers

Calgary at Edmonton (-104, 5)

Though you might not have heard much about it, Mathieu Garon is absolutely on fire for the Oilers. The Oil have won four of their last five games despite the fact they have been absolutely blasted with pucks.

Edmonton has allowed at least 30 shots in nine of its last 10 games, yet in the four recent wins, Garon has only allowed five goals other than shootouts.

The Flames are another team with some serious defensive lapses lately. They’ve allowed at least 30 shots in four of their last five games and they’ve given up a combined 11 goals in their last three games in regulation and overtime.

Pick: over


Chicago at Nashville (150, 5 1/2)

The Blackhawks are the coldest team in the league right now as they head to Nashville with an eight-game losing streak in tow. However, there are some signs of life in this team that might suggest they have a shot on Sunday.

Chicago lost 5-2 to Minnesota Friday night, but the club also managed to out-shoot the Wild 43-16. The Hawks also scored once on the power play to make it three straight games with a goal on the man advantage.

If they can take advantage of special teams – and a Nashville team coming off a tough game against Columbus on Saturday – ********* bettors might be able to cash in big.

Pick: Chicago

[GrandPa]

9) 11 SEC teams made NCAAs over last two seasons, went a combined 24-9, best of any conference in country.

B2B Champ Florida 's 12-0 record didn't hurt

[Udog]

Grandpa,

I heard, on the radio last night, that, if you take away Florida's record, the SEC is still second in the nation for the last two seasons. If that's accurate, it's pretty good for a football conference.

Pick 'n' roll: Sunday's best NBA bets
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Detroit Pistons at New York Knicks (odds TBD)

There's nothing the Knicks can do to quiet rumors that coach Isiah Thomas is on his way out. The New York Post reports Thomas is thinking about relinquishing his coaching duties to focus on his role as team president.

Meanwhile, Stephon Marbury's still complaining about his role and the Knicks have dropped nine of their last 10 games on the hardwood, covering just three pointspreads over that stretch.

Pick:TBD


Indiana Pacers at Golden State Warriors (-8, 225)

If the Knicks weren't so terrible, you’d hear a lot more about the Indiana Pacers' plight right now. They too have dropped nine of their last 10 games and covered only three of those pointspreads as they head into tonight's matchup with the Warriors.

Poor defense is Indiana's biggest issue on its current road trip. The Pacers have allowed at least 111 points in each of their last four. Golden State averages 108.4 points a night, second best in the league.

Pick: Golden State


Memphis Grizzlies at Los Angeles Lakers (-12.5, 220)

Memphis' two wins in its last 11 tries isn't anything to write home about, but the Grizzlies have covered the number in four of their last six games.

Memphis is getting scoring from everybody with Pau Gasol, Rudy Gay, and Mike Miller leading the way. The Grizzlies have cracked the 100-point barrier in four straight.

Kobe Bryant is probable after missing Saturday's practice with an upper respiratory illness.

Pick: Memphis +12.5
