Knights vs Sharks NHL Free Pick 

The Trend(s): The San Jose Sharks are 18-5 (78%) with a positive return of investment on 28% against the puckline as home underdogs. They've won 13 of those 23 games outright, and the Vegas Golden Knights have losing records, 8-9 SU, 4-13 against the puckline, as road favorites. 

The Bet: SHARKS (2%). 

Ricky's 1* play on SJ.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- The Golden Knights are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games.

- The Sharks are 3-1 ATS in their last 4 home games.

- The Sharks is 6-3 in its last 9 games against an opponent in the Pacific Division

Verdict: The value is on the Home underdog.

FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR SUNDAY, 1/11:

My “Cutting Room Floor” plays are the situations I considered the closest to being worthy of investment but did not make the “final cut” for my official plays today for subscribers. The last play I cut for Sunday is with the Phoenix Suns minus the points versus Washington Wizards. Phoenix (23-15) has won four of their last five games after their 112-107 upset victory at home against New York as a 1-point underdog on Friday. The Suns have covered the point spread in 8 of their last 12 games after a straight-up win at home. They have also covered the point spread in 14 of their last 16 games when favored. Washington (10-27) has lost two games in a row after their 128-107 loss against New Orleans as a 2.5-point favorite on Friday. The Wizards have failed to cover the point spread in 8 of their last 11 road games as an underdog getting 12.5 or more points. They have also failed to cover the point spread in 21 of their last 33 games with the Total set at 230 or higher. Play Phoenix minus the points. Best of luck — Frank.

David's NFL Free Pick

We really like the under in this matchup. Both yesterday's Wild Card games flew over the total, but we think this game in Foxborough will stay under. The Chargers boast one of the best defenses in the NFL and although New England QB Drake Maye is an MVP candidate, he'll face a tough test here in his first playoff start. 

This is a 1% FREE PLAY on the UNDER.

1 Unit FREE PLAY on Rockets/Kings UNDER 222.5

The Houston Rockets are 7-1 UNDER in their last eight games overall.  They have gone for 217 or fewer combined points in seven of those eight games.  They really miss Sengun offensively right now, and he's questionable again tonight.  The Kings are the worst offensive team in the NBA and they have been particularly poor of late.  They are without three of their best scorers in Sabonis, Shroder and Murray.  The Kings have scored 106 or fewer points in seven consecutive games now.  The Kings and Rockets have combined for 216, 216 and 224 points at the end of regulation in their last three meetings.  Give me the UNDER.

MONDAY NIGHT TOP NFL Platinum Supreme Play headlines along with a PERFECT NBA TOP Total. NHL Comp play below

The NHL Comp play is on Edmonton at 8:35 eastern. The Oilers are 5-1 with rest as a road favorite off a home loss as they look to bounce back from a loss on Saturday to LA. Tonight they travel to take on Chicago who is off a big upset shutout win in Nashville. Rob notes that home dogs with revenge off a road dog win at +140 or higher where they allowed less than 2 goals are 0-11 if they are .550 or less and the opponent is off a home favored loss. Edmonton has won 9 of the last 10 in the series and we will back them tonight. GL RV
