This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the New York Rangers.
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:
Motivation: The Rangers haven't been playing horribly, but they certainly haven't been playing great, splitting wins and losses over their last ten games, they'll be motivated here to bounce back after a 5-2 setback and league-leading Washington on Sunday. The Canucks on the other hand come in a bit complacent we think, they opened a six-game road trip with a 4-1 loss at the nation's capital but have since won back-to-back extra period games, including a 2-1 shootout victory at Long Island on Sunday; this sets up as a bit of a letdown spot.
Revenge: The Rangers fell to Vancouver 2-1 on December 9th.
ATS statistics: Note that Vancouver is just 4-7 (-2.2 units) after playing three consecutive road games, while New York is 2-0 (+2 units) after playing three consecutive road games.
The bottom line: All signs point to a relatively easy victory for the RANGERS.
