Apologies for the major laptop issues the last 2 days but I posted plays in the last thread. Huge card for Monday with 14 games compared to just one game yesterday. Highlighting the card is Vegas at Minnesota. Nashville and Dallas continue to battle it out for the final playoff spot in the Central while AZ and STL battle it out in the West.

No system plays for Monday night!

**I have started to research teams that come off at least a 5 game road trip and how they fare in their first game back home.** Its 11-8 to date.

Scenario #1 – Teams that are rested, either sitting at home or on the road while their opponent plays the night before. 25-12 over the last month of tracking it! The under is 22-14-1 in these spots.

Scenario #2 – Teams that are playing each other in back to back games, in which the home team loses the first game, the record of the home team in the second game is 81-53.

Scenario #3 – Teams playing back to back road games on consecutive nights tend to go under the total in the 2nd game. So far that trend is 39-29-2 when teams play on the road back to back nights.

Scenario #4 - One last angle I am tracking that is slightly profitable and similar to Scenario #1, is when any team loses the first game of a back to back against the same team, regardless if it’s on the road or at home, those teams are 95-69 in that situation.

Quick stat updates -
First period totals going over were 6-10 last night and are 380-399 on the season.
Road teams were 5-11 last night and are 363-407 on the season.
Game totals going over the total were 5-10-1 last night and are 358-377-33 on the season.
