Armadillo: Friday's six-pack

Odds on winning the 2014 NBA championship

9-5-- Miami Heat-- Can they turn it on after mediocre last 25 games?

5-2-- San Antonio Spurs-- Veteran nucleus going for fifth NBA title.

4-1-- Oklahoma City Thunder-- Lost in second round to Memphis LY.

5-1-- Indiana Pacers-- Had a horrendous second half this season.

10-1-- LA Clippers-- Thought their odds would be lower than this.

20-1-- Houston-- Opening series with Portland will be fun to watch.

*****

Armadillo: Friday's List of 13: Random stuff with weekend here.......
13) NHL's St Louis Blues have never won the Stanley Cup, despite making the Finals the first three years they were in existence- no pro sports team has a weirder history than that. Could this year be different?

12) NHL expanded from six to 12 teams in 1967, and put the six new teams in the same division-- St Louis won it the first three years, got squashed in the Finals all three years, but since then, have only made it back to the league's semifinals once, in 1972. Last night's triple OT win over defending champ Chicago could be a sign that this year will be different under the Gateway Arch.

11) Long time ago, I read the book Friday Night Lights; good book, but because I read the book, I never bothered to watch the movie or the TV show. Until very late last night, when it was on AMC. Just a tremendous movie. Really, really good. I'm very late with this, but if you've never seen the movie, its worth watching.

Billy Bob Thornton was great as the coach whose west Texas high school team had a whole small town's self esteem resting on its shoulders- the halftime speech he gives during the last game is 180-degree opposite of Al Pacino's "game of inches" speech in Any Given Sunday. Both are excellent, but in their own way.

10) Speaking of high school football in Texas, did you hear that the $60 million stadium they built for a high school team in Allen, TX may have to be demolished and rebuilt because of structural flaws? Someone's got some 'splainin' to do.

9) If you live near Houston, they have $1 hot dogs at Astros' Thursday night home games; its a nice stadium, located downtown. I was there a few years ago, can vouch for the food there being very good. Astros are getting better, too.

8) You hear a lot about the Wonderlic test, which NFL gives to draft prospects to measure basic intelligence (I guess thats why they do it); well, Ryan Fitzpatrick finished the test in nine minutes, which has become a legendary performance.

Fitzpatrick has bounced around to a few teams, is a decent QB, more of a backup; he has a 27-49-1 record as a starter, but you wonder if he hadn't aced the Wonderlic, would he even be in the NFL?

7) This has been a strange month for college hoop coaches; first Buzz Williams left Marquette to go to Virginia Tech, a total head scratcher, now Frank Haith bolts Missouri to go to Tulsa- Tulsa is in Conference USA, Missouri is in the SEC.

Apparently, Haith's move is "jump before you get pushed"; he felt Mizzou would fire him if he had a bad year next year, so he skipped town and will be welcomed in Tulsa with open arms. Which leads us to this flashback......

6) 15 years ago, Missouri needed a new basketball coach; they chose one of Coach K's henchmen, Quin Snyder, who did alright until he ran afoul of the NCAA. Their second choice after Snyder was the guy coaching at Tulsa.

You may have heard of him; a guy named Bill Self. Oy.

5) Louisville signed a deal with adidas for $8M a year thru 2019; its the third biggest deal in country, behind Notre Dame ($9M a year/Under Armour), Michigan ($8.2M a year/adidas). Big money for a school without a great football team.

4) Cardinals did have a terrific QB last year, Teddy Bridgewater, but his pro workouts have been so lackluster, he might slip out of the first round of the draft; there is also some doubt his body can withstand the pounding an NFL QB takes.

3) Texas Tech had six returning QBs when last season ended; well, five of them transferred, which is odd, considering Kliff Kingsbury is a QB guru and a former QB himself. Vincent Testaverde (yes, his son) will be an incoming freshman, and they have another freshman and two walk-on's coming in, but thats an odd story. QB guru is a head coach for one year, and five of the six returning QBs transfer.

2) I wonder if anyone has ever done a study of how pitchers do in the half-inning after they ran the bases? Does it hurt their performance, or doesn't it matter?

1) 2014 NFL schedule will be released Tuesday night; we're looking forward to that and will have lot of opinions about the schedule Wednesday morning.

Friday's NHL playoffs betting news and notes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Montreal Canadiens at Tampa Bay Lightning (-108, 5)

Montreal dominated Game 1 and swarmed the Lighting for long stretches but had to overcome a shaky performance by goaltender Carey Price before prevailing on Dale Weise's goal with less than two minutes left in the first overtime. The Canadiens scored one goal in each of the four regular-season meetings between the teams, so the offensive eruption was nearly as much of a surprise as Weise playing the hero. "I can’t remember the last time I scored an overtime goal, but this has to be the biggest goal of my career," said Weise, who has 11 goals in 163 games.

Tampa Bay suffered a blow in the series opener when rookie and leading scorer Ondrej Palat exited the game with an upper-body injury, the same ailment that sidelined him for the regular-season finale. Palat, who had 23 goals and 36 assists, missed practice Thursday and will be a game-time decision, according to head coach Jon Cooper. One plus for the Lightning was the play of replacement Alex Killorn, who scored in the third period before setting up captain Steven Stamkos' tying tally. Starting netminder Ben Bishop, who missed the final three games of the season, practiced in a limited duty Thursday but Cooper said: "I don't think we'll be seeing Bishop anytime soon."

TRENDS:

* Canadiens are 4-1 in the last five meetings in Tampa Bay.
* Over is 4-1-2 in Lightning last seven Conference Quarterfinals games.
* Canadiens are 12-4 in their last 16 overall.

Detroit Red Wings at Boston Bruins (-185, 5)

With captain Henrik Zetterberg and standout Pavel Datsyuk out for long stretches, Gustav Nyquist emerged as a star by scoring 28 goals - 23 during a stunning 28-game span. Detroit dressed 13 players who helped Grand Rapids win the Calder Cup with Grand Rapids of the American Hockey League last season, including rookies Tomas Tatar, Riley Sheahan and Tomas Jurco. "The young guys add a big element to the team," center Darren Helm said. "They’re going to be important guys in the playoffs." Datsyuk returned in early April to join veterans Daniel Alfredsson and Johan Franzen, but the onus will be on Jimmy Howard, who had a sub-par season before winning four of his last five starts.

The only team to win at least 30 home games (31-7-3) en route to capturing the Presidents' Trophy, Boston features a deep, balanced attack, one of the top netminders in Tuukka Rask and a defense anchored by towering captain Zdeno Chara. Patrice Bergeron, one of five Bruins to score at least 20 goals, may have supplanted Datsyuk as the league's premier two-way player following a 30-goal season that tied rejuvenated veteran Jarome Iginla for the team lead. "It's not by accident you hear his name in the Hart Trophy conversation," Boston coach Claude Julien said of Bergeron's MVP chances. Rask registered a league-high seven shutouts as the Bruins posted an NHL-best 84-goal differential.

TRENDS:

* Red Wings are 7-1 in the last eight meetings.
* Under is 7-1-1 in the last nine meetings in Boston.
* Bruins are 45-19 in their last 64 vs. Eastern Conference.

Dallas Stars at Anaheim Ducks (-176, 5.5)

Nine of Dallas' 18 skaters made their postseason debut on Wednesday, including goal-scorers Colton Sceviour and Jamie Benn. But the captain refused to cite that as the reason the team played poorly over the first 35 minutes. "We don't want to use that as an excuse," Benn said. "We know how we have to play to beat these guys and we're just going to need a real strong effort (Friday)."

Matt Beleskey got hurt in the opener, leaving the contest midway through the third period with a lower-body injury he says has been an ongoing issue for most of the season. It is uncertain whether or not he will be available Friday. "I'll see how I feel (Friday)," Beleskey told the team's website. "It's going to be every morning coming in and seeing how I feel from there." Anaheim will need to do a better job on line changes, as it was called for a pair of too-many-men-on-the-ice penalties Wednesday.

TRENDS:

* Over is 14-5 in the last 19 meetings in Anaheim.
* Stars are 1-4 in their last five road games.
* Over is 8-2-6 in Ducks last 16 Conference Quarterfinals games.

Patrice Bergeron, Boston - Prob Fri

Bergeron is recovering from a lower-body injury and has participated in two consecutive practices. He is expected to be ready for the opening game of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals Friday against the Red Wings.

Underdog Red Wings fare well versus Bruins

At +260 to win the series, the Detroit Red Wings might be one of the biggest longshots in the first round, but they have had great success versus the Boston Bruins in recent meetings.

In the previous eight meetings between the two Original Six franchises, the Red Wings have posted a 7-1 record. Take that with a grain of salt, however, as that mark stretches back to 2009 with no games played between the two in either 2010 and 2012.

But bettors looking for a dog can find a little more solace in the fact that the Wings were 3-1 in the 2013-14 season - their first as a member of the Eastern Conference.

Game of the Day: Angels at Tigers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Los Angeles Angels at Detroit Tigers (-128)

The Detroit Tigers broke out of their offensive funk in their last time out and would like nothing more than to end their struggles in another area – beating the Los Angeles Angels. The Tigers, who host Los Angeles for the first of three games on Friday, halted a stretch in which they scored nine runs over the previous four games with Thursday’s 7-5 win over the Cleveland Indians. Ian Kinsler homered and drove in four as Detroit won for only the third time in eight tries.

The Tigers, who scored the second-most runs in the majors a season ago, hope those offensive struggles won’t return with the arrival of the Angels, who held them to a total of 17 runs in six 2013 matchups and has won the last nine meetings overall. Los Angeles looks to start its nine-game road trip off on the right foot after Chris Iannetta hit his fourth career walk-off home run in the 12th inning Wednesday as the Angels avoided a three-game home sweep by the Oakland Athletics. The Angels lead the majors with 24 homers and rank second with 83 runs scored.

TV: 7:08 p.m. ET, FSN West (Los Angeles) FSN Detroit

LINE HISTORY: The Tigers opened as -128 home faves for the first game of the weekend series.

POWER RANKINGS: Angels (-140), Tigers (-191)

INJURY REPORT: Angels OF Josh Hamilton (Late May, thumb), OF Kole Calhoun (15-day DL, ankle). Tigers OF Andy Dirks (15-day DL, back)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Angels RH Jered Weaver (0-2, 5.79 ERA) vs. Tigers LH Drew Smyly (1-0, 0.00)

Weaver avoided taking a loss for the first time in three turns on Saturday, but Los Angeles fell to 0-3 in his starts after he surrendered four runs on three hits and four walks over 6 2/3 innings against the New York Mets. After yielding four home runs on the road in his previous turn, the three-time All-Star surrendered another at home against the Mets and is winless after three starts for the first time in his career. Weaver has also struggled in 10 career outings against the Tigers, going 3-4 with a 4.97 ERA.

After winning the rotation job in spring training, Smyly will make his long-awaited first start of the season as the Tigers haven’t needed him due to two postponements and three scheduled off-days. The 24-year-old has been sharp in his two middle-relief appearances, however, tossing a pair of scoreless three-inning outings while allowing two hits and striking out six. Smyly has a 2.77 ERA in three career appearances (one start) versus the Angels, but has yet to factor into the decision against them.

TRENDS:

* Angels are 9-0 in the last nine meetings.
* Under is 5-0 in Weaver's last five starts vs. Tigers.
* Tigers are 5-2 in their last seven home games.
* Over is 8-2-1 in Angels last 11 road games.

CONSENSUS: 67 percent of wagers are on Detroit.

Dodgers SS Ramirez day-to-day

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Hanley Ramirez is listed as day-to-day due to a bruised hand.

Ramirez left Wednesday's game after being hit by a Ryan Vogelsong pitch in the left hand. He buckled over in pain and slammed his helmet to the ground before being ushered to the clubhouse at AT&T Park in San Francisco.

The Dodgers announced X-rays were negative, and Ramirez did not play Thursday in the series finale, a 2-1 win for Los Angeles over the San Francisco Giants.

Ramirez, 30, missed the start of last season with thumb injury and played only 86 games, batting .345 with 20 home runs.

Umpires give All-Star pitchers the benefit of the doubt

According to a recent study which uses two years worth of data, umpires calling balls and strikes are apt to be more generous with "highly regarded pitchers" than they are with average pitchers.

If pitchers are throwing in the exact location, ones that have more All-Star Game appearances will receive the benefit of the doubt and get more called strikes/fewer balls.

Red Wings' Zetterberg "shooting" for round two

The Detroit Red Wings face an uphill battle against the powerhouse Boston Bruins, but they will also be without one of the best players in the world a little longer.

"We were always shooting for round two," Henrik Zetterberg told ESPN Thursday. "If it's just before that I will be happy."

Even though Zetterberg has not played for the Red Wings' since Feb. 8, he still has 48 points on the season. Detroit (+174) faces a tough task against the President Trophy winning Boston Bruins (-190).

Offense still the story of playoffs, bettors bank on over

Last time we checked, the NHL playoffs were suppose to be tight, grinder-type games. That certainly is not the case so far this year as teams are scoring all over. Through two days of the playoffs, bettors can rely on the over with a 6-0-1 O/U record.

Through seven games, the average number of goals scored per game is 7.6. This high average includes three games tallying up nine goals and three netting seven. The lone push came when the Rangers beat up on the Flyers 4-1.

There are three games on tap for Friday, with the Canadiens/Lighting and Ducks/Stars series both already going over in their first game.

In three rehab starts, Hamels has a 2.12 ERA and 12/1 K/BB ratio in 17 innings of action.

The Phillies begin a 10-day, 10-game road trip Friday against the Colorado Rockies.
