#33/34 ASA NHL TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 6.5 Goals - Florida Panthers at Calgary Flames, Tuesday at 9:00 PM ET – In hockey, when a team is winning and scoring a lot of goals it tends to build momentum like a snowball picking up more and more snow when rolling down a hill.  The Panthers are having a lot of fun right now scoring goals and playing winning hockey and that is why they have not hesitated in piling it on against teams even when up big.  Florida recently had a 9-2 win when they caught Columbus on what was a listless night for the Blue Jackets.  That big Panthers win is all part of a run of 8 wins in 9 games and all 9 of these games for Florida have totaled at least 7 goals!  Yes 9 in a row totaling 7 or more and, in fact, the average score of these games is Florida 6 to 3.  We are looking for another wild one tonight because Calgary has allowed 4 or more goals in 7 of the last 9 games.  The Flames are off a low-scoring loss but this was following a 5-game stretch in which Calgary averaged 3.4 goals per game.  The Flames last 7 games have averaged totaling 7 goals per game and couple that with the crazy run that the Panthers are on right now and we just can not see this game staying under 7 goals.  Look for Florida games to make it 10 IN A ROW in terms of games totaling AT LEAST 7 goals!  As you can see per all of the above, plenty of reasons to expect solid goal-scoring from both clubs in this one!  Take the OVER here

#657 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Tennessee -6.5 over Vanderbilt, Tuesday at 9 PM ET - We expect UT to play with an extra effort here after getting absolutely embarrassed over the weekend @ Kentucky. The Vols lost that game 107-79 and the Wildcats averaged a ridiculous 1.47 points per possession in the win. It was the first time since 2006 that the Vols allowed a team to reach 100 points. That was a enormously poor effort from the UT defense that STILL ranks 5th nationally in adjusted efficiency even after that performance allowing just 0.89 PPP. UK is ranked 4th nationally in offensive efficiency and now the Volunteers face a Vandy team that ranks 10th in the SEC in offensive efficiency. We expect the Commodores to struggle on offense vs one of the top defenses in the nation who will play with a little extra passion here. Vandy’s home court advantage has been little to none this year as 5 of their 6 losses have come at home. They are just 2-4 SU vs top 100 teams this year with all 4 losses coming by double digits. While Vanderbilt’s strength of schedule is ranked outside the top 100, Tennessee has played one of the toughest slates in the country (14th SOS). The Vols come in with 5 losses on the season and ALL 5 have come vs teams ranked inside Ken Pom’s top 17 (Villanova, Kentucky, Alabama, LSU, and Texas Tech). UT was favored by 12 @ Vandy last year (won 70-58) and now they are laying half that number despite the Vols ranking 14th this year (per Ken Pom) while they were 28th last year when this game tipped off. Vandy is off a 7 point win over UGA (the lowest rated team in the SEC) but they are running into a buzzsaw here. The Vols have won 5 in a road @ Vanderbilt and this is a must win type of game after their blowout loss. Lay it.
