Hurricanes vs Sabres Free Pick November 14, 2019

TOP RATED THURSDAY NIGHT NHL PUCKLINE PUNISHER

The Minnesota Wild are undefeated in regulation through their last 10 games, winning seven of those contests. I think they're way undervalued here, facing a Tampa Bay Lightning team that is 1-2-1 through its last four, with the lone win in OT at Nashville on Tuesday. 

Minnesota has won four of its last six games as road dogs while Tampa Bay has lost back-to-back games as home favorites. Additionally, note that the underdog is 4-1 in the last 5 head-to-head meetings between the two clubs. 

While Minnesota on the moneyline is also worth a shot, I think the puckline play should be a sure winner. 

10* play on Minnesota Wild +1.5. 

TOP RATED COWBOYS @ BEARS THURSDAY NIGHT TOTAL

The Dallas Cowboys took a 26-15 loss to Buffalo last week and their sputtering offense has scored a total of just 24 points over the last two games. Dallas still owns the top ranked offense at 432.8 yards per game, but moving the ball against a Chicago Bears team that ranks near the top of the league for most defensive categories and has allowed an average of just 17.3 ppg on the season won't be easy. As for the Bears offense, they scare no one with only Washington, the NY Jets and Miami averaging fewer total yards of offense per game. 

The cold Chicago weather won't do either team's offense any favors either, and we can note that under is 13-3 in Cowboys last 16 games in December and 4-0 in Bears last 4 games in December. Additionally, the under is 5-0 in Bears last 5 games as an underdog.

10* play on UNDER. 

MIKE LUNDIN'S ROCKETS @ RAPTORS FREE PICK

The Houston Rockets are coming off a pair of extremely games after first defeating Atlanta 158-111 followed by a 135-133 OT loss to San Antonio. James Harden has racked up a whopping 110 points during that stretch, and I think Harden and the rest of the Rockets offense will have decent success against the Toronto Raptors Thursday night. 

While the Rockets have all the talent and chemistry in the world while on the ball, they simply can't defend, and that is particularly true when facing elite teams. Additionally, we should see a fired up Toronto team after taking a 121-110 home loss to Miami on Tuesday.

Over is 6-2 in Rockets last 8 vs. a team with a winning straight up record and 10-1 in Raptors last 11 games as a home favorite. Over is 6-2 in the last 8 meetings.

Free pick on OVER.

GAME OF THE MONTH (NBA): MIKE'S TOP RATED SIDE

The Phoenix Suns will be playing on no rest following a 128-114 loss at Orlando Wednesday night. The Suns are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 in the second game of a back-to-back and I expect them to have enough gas left in the tank to take care of the New Orleans Pelicans who have failed to cover the spread in five of their last six overall.

The Suns might have a losing record (9-11), but they have a positive point differential which suggests that better things are to come.  This is just a bad matchup for the Pels who have one of the worst defensive efficiency ratings in the league while only four teams score more points per 100 possessions than Phoenix. 

Additionally, note that the Pelicans are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as a home favorite.

10* play on Phoenix Suns.
