FRANK’S CUTTING ROOM FLOOR FOR MONDAY, 11/17:

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 Monday is with the Denver Nuggets minus the points versus the Chicago Bulls. Denver (10-2) has won seven games in a row after their 123-112 win at Minnesota as a 1-point favorite on Saturday. The Nuggets have covered the point spread in 14 of their last 20 games played in November. They have also covered the point spread in 18 of their last 31 home games with the Total set at 230 or higher. Chicago (6-6) has lost five straight games after their 150-147 upset loss at Utah as a 4.5-point favorite yesterday. The Bulls have failed to cover the point spread in 7 of their last 10 games after suffering an upset loss. They have failed to cover the point spread in 9 of their last 12 games as a double-digit underdog. Take Denver minus the points. Best of luck — Frank.

Ricky's 1* play on Under.

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 Under is 8-3 in Oregon State's last 11 games played in November.

- The Under is 10-3 in Oregon's last 13 games.

- The Under is 8-2 in Oregon's last 10 games when playing as the favourite.

Verdict: Point should be hard to come by in this game.

This is a FREE PLAY on the Toronto Maple Leafs.

I like playing on desperate teams, and after five straight losses, I'd say that it's the Leafs who are the much more desperate team in this fight.

St. Louis is 6-9-4 overall, while Toronto is 8-9-2. 

The Blues are 3-4 on the road, while the Leafs are 7-4-2 at home. 

But it's all hands on deck, do or die essentially for the Leafs on Tuesday in my opinion. As I said, I like playing motivated and desperate teams.

And they catch the Blues at a good time, as they come in with zero momentum after two straight losses of their own, most recently a poor 4-1 loss at home against Vegas. 

Overall, the Blues are ranked 24th offensively, averaging 2.8 goals per game, while ranked 32nd defensively in conceding 3.8.

Toronto is averaging 3.6 goals per game this year, which is ranked fourth, but it's taken a huge step back here on the defensive end and between the pipes, tied with the Blues with the worst collective goals against average in the league at 3.8.

This will be a popular pick among the general betting public for all of the reasons I've listed above, but also because of the reasonable overall price.

I don't smell any upsets here, and I expect Toronto to come in focused and to finally deliver a half-decent, three-period effort, which will be more than enough to take care of this struggling Blues side.

I think this line could/should in fact be larger, and that's why I think the LEAFS are worth a "second look" on Tuesday night.

Good luck, NP
