This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the LA Kings.

While we are primarily a situationally based handicapping service, we don't prescribe to any one single methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account a bunch of different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. The actual contestants on the field of play rarely enter into our equation when making selections, unless it's a Top 3 player like a LeBron James or Aaron Rodgers etc. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions, are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.

This particular play is based on a few different factors:

Scheduling: The Wings are coming off a 2-1 win at Anaheim just last night.

Revenge: The Kings lost 3-2 to Detroit on November 20th.

ATS statistics: Note that LA is 15-5 (+6.6 units) in revenging a loss vs. an opponent this year.

Jimmy Howard: The Red Wings goaltender is 0-1-3 with a 3.77 GAA over his last five starts.

The bottom line: A bunch of different factors collide making this a price in which we have no issues at all in laying. Play on DETROIT.
