SOUND THE ALARMS

3-0 on the NCAA hardwood yesterday raises our tournament record to 17-8 including a 17-5 run. 2 elite games plus 12 games on the ice equals a busy Saturday for Mr. Thursday Night and HC&P. We are expecting Derrick Williams and Arizona to finally end UCONN's incredible run while the clock finally reaches midnight for giant killer Butler. A few more NHL plays will likely be added later in the day. Good luck!

ARIZONA ML (+130) vs UCONN

FLORIDA -4 VS BUTLER

BOSTON BRUINS/LOS ANGELES KINGS 2 TEAMER +140

FRIDAY FREE FOR ALL

The hits just keep on coming here at HC&P as a 3-1 NCAA Thursday boosted our tournament record to an outstanding 14-8. Four more games tonight plus 5 games on the ice to choose from.

VCU ML (+160) vs FSU

NORTH CAROLINA (-105) -4.5 VS MARQUETTE

BUFFALO SABRES/WASHINGTON CAPITALS 2 TEAM NHL PARLAY (+130)

TO THE ICE

Our focus once again returns to the ice as the NCAA tournament takes a 3 day break. The weekend NCAA mark was 11-7 which is mighty impressive considering the 0-3 start. Two games in the NHL tonight as the beat up Penguins face the beat up Red Wings. Calgary also travels to LA a night after blowing a late lead in Anaheim.

LA KINGS/DETROIT REDWINGS 2 TEAM NHL PARLAY +160

MR. THURSDAY NIGHT=MR. MARCH MADNESS?

The hammer dropped on Saturday as Mr. Thursday Night posted a 4-0 NCAA mark running his tournament record to 9-5. Expect more of the same on Sunday as 3 games have caught our eye.

On the ice, the Coyotes return home after a very sucessful western road swing to take on the Black Hawks. Despite playing at home and having more points that Chicago on the season, the odds makers have made the Hawks the favorite in this one. Also of note, the Yotes will have a rested Ilyz Bryzgalov back between the pipes after getting Friday off. We see the Yotes staying hot and moving closer to clinching a playoff spot with a 3-1 win.

NORTH CAROLINA -4.5 VS WASHINGTON

NOTRE DAME -5 VS FLORIDA STATE

ARIZONA +6 VS TEXAS

PHOENIX COYOTES (EVEN) VS CHICAGO BLACK HAWKS

CREAM OF THE CROP

We've reached the 2nd round which is when the cream of the crop begins to rise to the top. Favorites will rule the day on the college hardwood as we have 4 sure-fire March money markers for your ass today. On the ice, the teams in playoff battles will be hungry this weekend so find your NHL bubble teams and ride them all the way to the bank. Good luck to all.

3 TEAM NHL PARLAY: WILD/KINGS/SABRES

RICHMOND -4

WISCONSIN -3.5

KENTUCKY -4

SAN DIEGO STATE -6

FANTASTIC FRIDAY

Another subpar day was made up for by MTN with the late add a SJ/PHX/CGY 3 teamer which salvaged the night. Today we've got 1 high value NHL parlay and 3 NCAA picks. The NHL parlay includes 2 of the 4 best team in hockey but the payout does not reflect that. Lock this in before Nicklas Backstrom returns and the number drops.

CAPITALS/CANUCKS +290

ILLINOIS ML VS UNLV

MICHIGAN +1.5 VS TENNESSEE

VILLANOVA -1.5 VS GEORGE MASON

Our 4 Unit NHL Parlay went KABOOM resulting in a winning night here at HC&P. The NCAA tournament kicks off in full force and there are 11 games on the NHL slate so it will be a busy Thursday.

ODU -2.5 VS BUTLER

SDSU -15.5 VS NORTHERN COLORADO

SJU -1 VS GONZAGA

FLAMES/COYOTES/MAPLE LEAFS PARLAY +340

RECOVERY

Mr. Thursday Night took one on the chin last night but today looks to be a 3-0 day as the NHL winds down while the NCAA tournament "First Four" carries on.

USC -4.5 VS VCU

**4 UNITS**DETROIT RED WINGS/VANCOUVER CANUCKS PARLAY (+130)

ANAHIEM DUCKS/CAROLINA HURRICANES PARLAY (+190)

THE MADNESS BEGINS

1-1 last night for Mr. Thursday Night as he once again learned the San Jose Sharks can not be trusted. The NCAA tournament kicks off tonight with a pair of play-in games. We're banking on UAB gaining a little bit of motivation from the media ripping them the past two days. In the NHL, Carolina travels to Buffalo with their playoff lives on the line. This clash is game 1 of our 2 team NHL parlay with the other matchup featuring a decimnated Coyotes squad traveling to Calgary to face the Flames in the always difficult Saddledome.

NHL PARLAY: CAROLINA/CALGARY +310

NCAA: UAB +5 VS CLEMSON

EDIT: Adding MONTREAL (-120) VS WASHINGTON

NCAA Tournament Week

March Madness is upon us with action beginning tomorrow night in what promises to be one of the most unpredictable tournaments in recent history. While we wait for the basketball to get under way, Mr. Thursday Night has a couple of hockey plays to keep you entertained this evening. Mr. Thursday Night continues to tear up the NHL, and is coming off a very nice 3 teamer last night.

Tampa Bay Lightning ML (-105) at Toronto Maple Leafs

San Jose Sharks/Vancouver Canucks 2 team parlay (+250)
