        Ice Picks: NHL Bets
        -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        Vancouver Canucks at Phoenix Coyotes (+120, 5.5)

        This is a classic battle of two teams going in opposite directions. The Canucks have found their offensive touch, scoring 17 goals during a three-game winning streak. After starting very slow, Mats Sundin is starting to regain his form with a pair of goals in a 6-4 win over St. Louis Tuesday.

        "It's a process for myself, but I think the last four or five games the legs are there," Sundin told the CBC. "I don't feel better or worse than what I thought it would be after 10 or 11 games."

        Wayne Gretzky’s Coyotes are headed south in a hurry. Phoenix’s offense has all but dried up with just 10 goals during a current six-game slide. The teams have split two games so far this season with the Coyotes winning 4-1 in January and the Canucks earning a 1-0 shutout in November.

        Pick: Vancouver -130



        Florida Panthers at Carolina Hurricanes (-130, 5.5)

        The Florida Panthers are riding high after a three-goal comeback to beat the Leafs 5-4 Tuesday. It was the first time in Panthers' history that they overcame a three-goal deficit and the second time in a week that the team overcame a third-period deficit to beat the Leafs.

        ''The lesson learned here is that we can only go so long putting ourselves in that hole,'' Panthers forward Gregory Campbell told reporters. “But we played good hockey, and we deserved to win.”

        Slow starts and late comebacks for the Panthers may not cut it against the Hurricanes. The Canes are playing some of their best hockey of the season, winning six of eight including a 4-3 triumph over the Sharks. Carolina vet Rod Brind’Amour may return to the line up Thursday night after missing time with a lower body injury.

        Pick: Carolina -130

                Miami Heat at Chicago Bulls [TNT | 7 PM ET]

                Heat: Miami has dropped five of its last seven games and hopes to bounce back in Dwyane Wade's hometown. Wade has struggled in most of his past trips home to Chicago, and he has been the only player on his team to step up lately. He scored 33 points in a 99-82 home loss to Denver on Tuesday, and rookie Michael Beasley has totaled 11 points and four rebounds combined over the last two games. Beasley had 14 points and six rebounds in the last meeting en route to a 90-77 victory.

                Heat are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 Thursday games.
                The OVER is 8-2 in Miami's last 10 road games.

                Key Injuries - F Dorell Wright (Achilles') is OUT.

                PROJECTED SCORE: 97

                Bulls (-3.5, O/U 197): Chicago rookie Derrick Rose will try to forget about one of his worst performances of his young career earlier this season against Miami, as he totaled 10 points on 3-of-14 shooting and turned the ball over five times. “I was trying to be aggressive and the shots just weren’t falling for me,” Rose said. “I was thinking too much out there.” He has averaged 18.4 points in leading the Bulls to five wins in the last seven games though, scoring at least 20 for the third straight time on Tuesday. That latest performance helped them rally back from down 14 and resulted in a 107-102 win over Detroit.

                Bulls are 1-7 ATS in their last 8 games vs. Southeast Division.
                The OVER is 6-2 in Chicago's last 8 games vs. Southeast Division.

                Key Injuries - G Derrick Rose (head) is day-to-day.
                F Drew Gooden (groin) is OUT.

                PROJECTED SCORE: 100



                Boston Celtics at Dallas Mavericks [TNT | 9:30 PM ET]

                Celtics (-2.5, O/U 196.5): Boston has won eight straight road games following an impressive 89-77 victory at New Orleans on Wednesday. The Celtics outscored the Hornets 25-13 in the fourth quarter and proved they can finish strong after blowing late leads in home losses to the Lakers and Spurs. “I guess we learned from our mistakes,” Boston's Paul Pierce said. “It was all about execution, especially in the fourth quarter and we defended at a higher level there in the fourth. Those are two things we’ve got to do, especially on the road.”

                Celtics are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 Thursday games.
                The UNDER is 25-9 in Boston's last 34 road games.

                Key Injuries - G Ray Allen (thumb) is questionable.
                G Tony Allen (thumb) is OUT.

                PROJECTED SCORE: 98 (UNDER - Total Play of the Day)

                Mavs: Dallas will be trying to win six in a row at the American Airlines Center for the first time this season and has also won 10 of the last 11 games played there. Mavs star Dirk Nowitzki has averaged 28 points on 52 percent shooting during their five-game home winning streak and hopes to rebound from a poor performance the last time he faced the Celtics. Nowitzki totaled 18 points on 4-of-17 shooting in a 124-100 loss at Boston on January 25th.

                Mavs are 6-20-1 ATS in their last 27 Thursday games.
                The UNDER is 11-4 in Dallas' last 15 games vs. Atlantic Division.

                Key Injuries - G Jason Terry (hand) is OUT.

                PROJECTED SCORE: 95

                  #6 UCLA at #18 Arizona State [ESPN | 9 PM ET]

                  UCLA (-1.5, O/U 127.5): The Bruins have won their last four games by an average of 22.8 points and appear to be much-improved since the last time they played Arizona State. They will be looking to avenge a 61-58 overtime loss at home to the Sun Devils back on January 17th and have averaged 85.8 points during their winning streak. “It’s obvious we’ve been performing at a new level and just improving as a team,” said UCLA head coach Ben Howland.

                  UCLA is 14-5 ATS in its last 19 Thursday games.
                  The OVER is 6-0 in UCLA's last 6 games overall.

                  Key Injuries - NONE

                  PROJECTED SCORE: 67 (Side Play of the Day)

                  Arizona State: The Sun Devils have lost the last four home meetings with UCLA and need a win here in order to keep their slim hopes of a Pac-10 title alive. They hope to have point guard Derek Glasser back after he missed Saturday's 49-37 win at Oregon State. Glasser suffered a concussion in the team's previous game, and he ranks second in the conference in assist-to-turnover ratio at 2.1.

                  Arizona State is 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings.
                  The UNDER is 7-2 in Arizona State's last 9 games overall.

                  Key Injuries - G Derek Glasser (concussion) is questionable.

                  PROJECTED SCORE: 61
