NHL | Wild vs Seattle Kraken
Play on: Wild -128 at circa

Monday night Football GAME OF THE YEAR Headlines tonight backed with 3 Undefeated Long term MNF Specific Power System and a 100% Angle. NHL Comp Play below

The NHL Comp play is on Minnesota tonight at 10:07 eastern. The Wild have won all 4 meetings here in Seattle and catch the Kraken with poor current form as they have dropped 5 straight. The Kraken are also in a tough system here that plays against home dogs of 130 or less that are off a home dog loss vs an opponent with a wining record that is off back to backs losses with the last loss as a road favorite. The Kraken have lost 5 of 6 as a home dog. Look for Minnesota to get this one. GL Rob V-

NCAA-B | Villanova vs Michigan
Play on: Villanova +16 -110 at circa

No. 2 Michigan (8-0) enters as one of the hottest teams in the country, fresh off blowout wins including 102-72 over No. 20 Auburn, 101-61 over No. 11 Gonzaga, and 101-60 over Rutgers. The Wolverines rank No. 1 in KenPom, boast the nation's top defense, and are averaging a staggering 94.6 points per game while shooting over 52% from the field and dominating the glass (2nd nationally in rebounds per game).
Villanova (7-1) has quietly put together a seven game win streak after a narrow season opening loss to BYU, most recently claiming the Big 5 Classic with a 90-63 rout of Penn. The Wildcats sit around No. 35 in KenPom and bring a disciplined, ball sharing offense (83.0 PPG) with strong perimeter shooting (around 38% from three this season) and excellent half court execution.
The current spread sits at Michigan -15.5, which feels inflated given the matchup dynamics. Villanova's defense rarely fouls—one of the lowest opponent free-throw rates in the country—forcing teams to earn points in the half court rather than at the line. Michigan thrives on efficient scoring and transition, but against a patient, low mistake Wildcats team that moves the ball beautifully and shoots the three well, the Wolverines may face a grind it out game rather than another track meet.
KenPom projects around a 15-point Michigan win, but personal models see this staying closer. Michigan's recent dominance has come against overmatched or weaker defenses; regression feels inevitable against a proven program like Villanova on a big stage.
I'll acknowledge the hometown lean (yes, living near Villanova probably plays a small role), but the value here is clear: the road Cats have the tools to frustrate Michigan's rhythm and keep this within striking distance.
Pick: Villanova +15.5

NHL | Ducks vs Penguins
Play on: Penguins -115 at Draft Kings

This is a FREE PLAY on the Pittsburgh Penguins.

I love the way this one sets up for Pittsburgh. 

Anaheim is No. 1 in the Pacific, 18-10-1 overall, including 7-6-1 on the road, while Pittsburgh is No. 4 in the Metropolitan with a 14-7-6 record, including going 6-4-2 at home.

The Ducks rebounded from a 7-0 home loss to Utah to win their next two in Anaheim over Washington and Chicago, but now I think they'll stumble here in this difficult road venue facing the hungry and revenge-minded Penguins.

Pittsburgh went 2-1 on its most recent road trip, falling 3-2 in a shootout at Dallas in the finale.

But, now back at home, I like Pittsburgh to avenge the 4-3 loss in Anaheim back in early October. Looking back to last year the Pens are 7-3 in their last ten in trying to avenge a road loss as an underdog against an opponent. 

Overall, Pittsburgh averages 3.2 goals per game, which is ranked ninth, while allowing 2.7, which is ranked eighth, while Anaheim averages 3.6 goals per game, ranked second, while conceding 3.3, ranked 22nd.

The difference for sure comes on the defensive end, and it's a weakness I expect the home side to take advantage of in this revenge-scenario.

With upcoming games at the Islanders, Devils, Rangers and Blue Jackets, it's also almost impossible not to see Anaheim getting caught "looking ahead" here to its difficult upcoming road trip.

This is the start of five straight at home for the Penguins, though, and I expect them to get things started off on the proverbial "right foot" with a big victory on Tuesday night.

Consider the PENGUINS.

Good luck, NP
