We don't subscribe to any single handicapping 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 numerous 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. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics.

This particular play is based on a few different factors:

As note that Vancouver is just 8-14 (-1.8 units) this year after scoring one goal or less in its previous contest and only 9-21 (-4 units) against teams with a winning record, while Minnesota is 6-3 (+1.5 units) after a loss by two goals or more in its previous contest.

The bottom line: The Canucks are playing their backup goaltender tonight, which clearly doesn't bode well for struggling Vancouver. The WILD are in the thick of the playoff race and can ill afford to "look past" their lowly opponent. Lay the price with confidence.
