This is a 6* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the St. Louis Blues.

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 primarily on strong/relevant ATS stats and common sense:

As note that Philadelphia is a horrible 15-20 (-4.6 units) in its last 35 when playing on back-to-back days, while St. Louis is 41-29 (+2.9 units) in its last 70 after scoring foru goals or more in its previous contest, including 5-1 (+3.7 units) this season alone.

The bottom line: The Flyers looked poor in last night's loss in Chicago. The Blues come in on top form and goaltender Jake Allen leads the league in most categories. This line could/should easily be a lot larger in our opinion, indeed swinging the value to ST. LOUIS.
