ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Colorado Avalanche -105 over Vegas Golden Knights at 10:05 PM ET - This is a huge game to determine the winner of this division.  There are still some games to follow (2 for the Avalanche and 1 for the Golden Knights) but the winner of this game is absolutely in the drivers seat for the division and, potentially for home ice throughout the post-season.  In other words, this is a huge game!  The last time these teams met Vegas was a -140 favorite and this time the line is a pick'em.  The difference?  The Avalanche were without Donskoi, Rantanen, and Grubauer when the Golden Knights got the 5-2 win less than 2 weeks ago.  All 3 of those guys are now back in the lineup for Colorado.  Also, we are aware of the MacKinnon injury (questionable) for the Avalanche but this is offset by Pacioretty's questionable status for Vegas in this one.  The biggest key is the Avs now having those 3 other players back including goalie Grubauer.  While he is unquestionably the #1 netminder for the Avalanche, the Golden Knights once again enter a post-season with uncertainty in the crease.  Will it be Fleury or Lehner?  This is already impacting tonight's game because it is Lehner's turn in the rotation but he has been a little shaky in recent appearances.  So does Fleury then get the start?  How will this impact the mindset?  Goaltenders are known for liking routine and consistency.  This will be interesting tonight for Vegas and revenge-minded Colorado has no such questions entering this game.  The Avalanche have outshot the Golden Knights in 4 of the last 5 games and have had a shot edge of 10 shots per game in those contests.  They are out to prove they are the top team in the West and we look for them to do just that tonight as there is a reason the Golden Knights are on home ice and yet are priced as a pick'em in this game.  The sharp money will be on the road team in this one and that should prove to be the right bet in convincing fashion in this one as we expect Colorado to play one of its best games of the season!  Take the AVALANCHE

#901/902 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 7.5 Runs – Pittsburgh vs Cincinnati, Monday at 6:35 PM ET – The Reds have scored a total of only 6 runs in 4 games. Yesterday's game was rained out and, prior to Saturday's 9-2 loss going over the total, Cincinnati games were on a run of just 1 over in 5 games. The Reds have scored 3 or less runs in 6 of 8 games. The Pirates also have been struggling at the plate. Pittsburgh had a rare high-scoring win yesterday but this was after 6 straight unders. The Pirates scored only 8 runs total in those 6 games! The Reds start Tyler Mahle in this one. He has a 1.29 ERA on the road this season. Mahle has pitched 11 scoreless innings while allowing only 8 hits and striking out 10 in his last two starts at Pittsburgh. The Pirates start Mitch Keller. Though his numbers on the season do not impress, Keller is off an excellent start at San Diego and should enjoy success against the Reds. Keller has struck out 20 in 13 innings over his 3 starts against Cincinnati. The last time Keller hosted the Reds he gave up only 1 earned run in 6 innings while fanning 9! The Reds are hitting .201 on the road this season and that ranks Cincinnati dead last in the majors. Pittsburgh has a .346 slugging percentage overall which ranks the Pirates dead last in the majors. Runs will be hard to come by on a cool evening at PNC Park for this one. Per our computer math model, this game lands around 5 to 6 runs and even if it reaches 7 that is still a winning ticket. We like the odds being in our favor for a well-pitched affair in this one! Bet the UNDER

ASA top play on 10* Milwaukee Bucks -6.5 over San Antonio, 8:30 PM ET - The Spurs are fighting for their playoff lives but the Bucks still have an outside shot at the #1 seed in the East. Milwaukee has gotten it going with a five-game winning streak which includes a pair of wins over the Brooklyn Nets. Milwaukee is 19-14 SU on the road this season, but they have the 2nd best average margin of victory in the league at +5PPG. In their last seven road games the Bucks average MOV is +11.2PPG. The Spurs last home game came against the 76ers and they were a +10-point dog in that game and the difference in this number is too high. San Antonio is 13-20 SU at home this season with the 24th worst differential at minus -3.1PPG. These two teams have similar defensive numbers but the Bucks #1 scoring, 3rd best shooting is far superior to the Spurs offense that ranks 20th in PPG scored and is 20th in FG%. The Spurs 2-5 losing ATS home streak continues here.
