This is a 10* SITUATIONAL REVENGE DESTRUCTION on the Pittsburgh Penguins.
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:
The revenge factor: This is an obvious one, the Penguins lost 3-2 in OT to Carolina on January 12th. Carolina has in fact taken both meetings between the clubs this season.
Home ice advantage: The Pens are 10-7-1 at home, while the Hurricanes are just 10-10-3 away from friendly confines.
Motivation: Pittsburgh sits just two wild-card spots back of the Lightning and Montreal, but has dropped 13 of its last 19 overall.
Classic letdown spot: We feel this one sets up as a letdown spot, the Hurricanes had won a season best four in a row before a 3-2 OT defeat to Vancouver on Friday. It's hard to gain that momentum once you've lost it, all signs definitely point to the visitors struggling today.
The bottom line: The desperation level in which the PENGUINS play with today turns out to be the difference in the final outcome.
