*2 Star Play on Blues* The St. Louis Blues are the more rested team here, and they are coming off a game where they got 46 shots on goal and none of them went in the net. The opposing goaltender just completely locked them down. The Blues should be anxious to get back on the ice for this one.

Boston is a quality team, but I think they are a bit overvalued now and have been fortunate to this point in the season. I'll look to fade them here on the road.

Take St. Louis.

Free Total Annihilator On Blackhawks vs Red Wings under 6 -115

Jack's Free Pick Saturday: Minnesota/Indiana UNDER 42

The Indiana Hoosiers are a dead nuts UNDER team this season.  Their defense is every bit as good as last year, but their offense has taken a big step back.  They have gone 3-0 UNDER in their last three games overall finishing with 37 combined points with Nebraska, 34 with Ohio State and 19 with Michigan in a game that was tied 6-6 at the end of regulation.

It was clear in the Michigan game that QB Josh Hoover is not right and playing through injury.  He got hurt late in the Ohio State game and missed some easy throws that cost them the win.  Hoover came back to go 8-of-18 for 81 yards with an interception last week against Michigan.  I don't think he'll be close to 100% this week, either.

Indiana ranks 3rd in scoring defense allowing 12.0 points per game, 8th in total defense allowing 264.8 yards per game and 2nd allowing 4.1 yards per play.  I fully expect the Hoosiers to shut down this suspect Minnesota offense this week, and to salt away the clock in the 2H with their running game just to get out of there with a win.

This is a very poor Minnesota offense and it has shown the last three weeks.  The Gophers managed just 262 yards and 4.0 per play against Michigan, 275 yards and 5.3 per play against a terrible Purdue defense, and 209 yards and 3.4 per play against Iowa.  In Big Ten play alone they are averaging just 18.3 points per game, 268.8 yards per game and 4.5 yards per play.

But this is a very talented Minnesota defense that I think can hold Indiana in check.  The Gophers are allowing 20.1 points per game and 4.9 yards per play while ranking 16th in total defense at 288.7 yards per game.  I don't see Indiana scoring more than 31, and I don't see Minnesota scoring more than 10.  So there is value with the UNDER 42 above the key of 41 this week.  Bet the UNDER in this game Saturday.

1* Free Wiseguy Play on Panthers/Packers over 46½ -120

*All picks are based on situations, trends, statistics and injuries among many other factors*

1* Free Pick on Packers -3½

The Panthers travel to Green Bay on three days' rest, and the line hasn't caught up to how banged up they are.

Carolina just got run off its own field, 43-13 to Tampa Bay.

Panthers quarterback Bryce Young posted a season-low passing yardage total, completed under 52 percent of his throws for the second straight game, and tossed two picks that led to 10 Tampa Bay points.

Now the injuries.

Right tackle Taylor Moton fractured his fibula Sunday and is done for the year.

Monroe Freeling steps in cold, and guards Damien Lewis and Torricelli Simpkins are both questionable.

That's a patchwork line protecting a struggling quarterback on a short week.

The secondary is in worse shape.

Corners Jaycee Horn and Mike Jackson are both on injured reserve, and fill-in starter Akayleb Evans is questionable.

Edge rusher Jaelan Phillips is trying to come back from a hamstring that already cost him a game.

Green Bay's defense is playing well, allowing just 17.8 points per game over its last 5.

At Lambeau the last two times out, the Packers beat Dallas 23-13 and buried Chicago 31-7.

The offense gets a boost too.

Josh Jacobs is back in the backfield, and Packers quarterback Jordan Love has thrown a touchdown in all 7 games this season.

He draws a Carolina team giving up 27.67 points per game.

Short week, road trip, depleted roster on both sides of the ball, against a rested-enough home team off a 3-point loss.

Lay the points.

I like the Packers

Free Play from Doc’s Sports: Take #135 Illinois Fighting Illini over Maryland Terrapins (12 p.m., Saturday, October 31 FS1). I don’t expect Maryland to get much of a spark after firing Mike Locksley. With the remaining staff facing uncertain futures in College Park, keeping this team focused could be a challenge. Illinois still has a bowl berth within reach, and this matchup represents one of its best remaining opportunities to pick up a win. The Illini have won the last two meetings with Maryland, taking last year’s matchup 24-6 after a 27-24 road victory in 2023. Bret Bielema brings the experience to keep Illinois moving forward, and his team has won two straight against opponents stronger than the Maryland squad it faces today. Take the Fighting Illini.

1 Dimer on Blackhawks vs Red Wings under 6 -115

FIU +14

Liberty is rolling, but I'm not buying a blowout at this number. FIU brings the nation's 19th-ranked defense into this matchup, allowing just 16 PPG and holding opponents to 28% on third down. That's a defense capable of making Liberty work for its points. The Panthers have also lost their last two games by just 3 points apiece, and they've covered both of their last two meetings with the Flames. Liberty's 600 penalty yards this season are another concern when laying two full TD's. The Flames should win, but winning and covering 14 are two different animals. Take FIU and the points. Locking this in early. Ray’s daily FREE plays are meant to be smaller bankroll plays. Money management is everything in this game, and these freebies are designed to keep you moving in the right direction. Today's FREE selection is a strong lean on the FIU +14. The number makes sense, the spot is right, and it’s a play worth taking. You know what to do. Good luck — Razor Ray.

Utah arrives at PPG Paints Arena at 8-5, averaging 3.6 goals per game while allowing 3.3. Pittsburgh sits at 5-6-1, scoring 3.3 and allowing 3.3. A short road number does not price a separator when the visitor holds the cleaner primary creation and the home side has already conceded volume on the secondary. The market has not forced a blowout. The short road side is the work.

Utah’s system generates sustained pressure through the top line and converts when the defense collapses. Clayton Keller is averaging 15 points through 13 games (4 goals, 11 assists) and just put up a multi-point night against this same Pittsburgh side earlier in the month. Nick Schmaltz has already reached 14 points (7 goals, 7 assists) and has converted power-play looks at an efficient rate. The Mammoth’s offensive structure creates intermediate and rush chances, then feeds the secondary options when the defense collapses. Pittsburgh has not yet limited a front that forces secondary creation at this rate while also controlling the transition.

Pittsburgh’s system leans on Sidney Crosby’s usage and opportunistic secondary scoring. Crosby has 7 points in 12 games but has been held quiet in several recent outings, including a zero-point effort in the earlier meeting with Utah. The Penguins’ early defensive structure has allowed volume against teams that attack the middle and force the secondary into efficient looks. Utah’s road sample has already produced competitive margins without requiring isolation dominance.

In the crease, Karel Vejmelka has appeared in 11 games for Utah with a 6-4-0 record, 3.13 GAA, and .881 save percentage. He has produced tighter numbers in wins and has already faced Pittsburgh once this season. Arturs Silovs has started the majority of Pittsburgh’s games, posting a 5-3-0 record with a 2.87 GAA and .890 save percentage, including a shutout earlier in the week. Silovs has shown volatility on the road and against volume. Utah’s shot volume early has already tested netminders who sit near league average. The edge favors the side that can generate the cleaner looks without needing perfect goaltending.

Road favorites of -130 or better that enter with a winning record have covered the puck line or won outright at a 27-16 rate (62.8%) since the early 2010s when facing a home team ranked outside the top 15 in defensive metrics early. At even money, 27 wins and 16 losses is +11.0 units and a 25.6% ROI. The average margin in those situations has been +1.4 goals. Short road numbers have been the cleaner side when the road team controls the primary creation and the home side has not yet limited secondary volume.

A second look: Road teams averaging 3.5 or more goals per game against home sides allowing 3.3 or more have produced the short side at a 24-15 rate (61.5%) since 2015 when both teams sit near even in goal differential. At even money that is +9.0 units and a 23.1% ROI. Volume against a front that has already given it up is the argument.

Shop the number. Confirm both starters before puck drop.

My selection is on Troy plus the points over James Madison at 7:30 pm et on Thursday.

You'd be hard-pressed to find many bettors looking to go to the wall with Troy on Thursday. After all, the Trojans just finished a two-game stretch that saw them lose 33-6 as a field goal underdog at  Louisiana-Lafayette and 21-14 as a nearly two-touchdown favorite at home against Louisiana-Monroe. Meanwhile, James Madison is 7-1 on the season, just suffering its first loss of the campaign last week against Appalachian State, in overtime no less. The Dukes are 6-2 ATS on the season but have dropped the cash in two of their last three games. I think they reached the point of being overvalued weeks ago and that's not going to change given the Trojans current reputation. We'll grab the generous helping of points. Take Troy (8*).

1* on Penguins +127

Blackhawks vs Red Wings NHL Free Pick

The Angle(s): The Chicago Blackhawks are a different team with Connor Bedard back in the lineup. They started 1-5 while he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery, but they've gone .500 since his return, and he has points in most of his games. Their last loss was a one-goal decision against Florida, and I expect another tight game here.

The Detroit Red Wings aren't built to run teams out of the building. They average just 2.6 goals per game, and three of their games have already gone past regulation, including Tuesday's 3-3 battle with Edmonton. A Red Wings team that struggles to pull away against a Blackhawks group that has been in more competitive games lately makes the extra goal and a half valuable.

The Bet: Blackhawks +1.5 (3%). 

Ricky's 1* play on MIN.

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 Wild are 5-2 in their last 7 games.

- The Islanders are 1-3 in their last 4 games.

- The Wild are 8-2 in the last 10 head to head meetings.

Verdict: The value is on the home favorite.
