Post-Olympic NHL historically trends to the 'Over'

With players set to return to action following the Olympic break, the question on bettors' minds is will there be goals a-plenty, or a major offensive shortage?

If past history is any indication, fans should expect a scoring bump - the league has traditionally seen inflated scoring totals in the first week following the break, suggesting that it takes longer for defense and goaltending to adjust to the time away from the ice. And while it hasn't always been the case - 2006 being the outlier - it has proven to be one of the more reliable trends over the long haul.

Here's a look at the goals-per-game rates for the week following the Olympic break compared to the rate leading up to the tournament:

1997-98
Goals per game, pre-Olympic break: 5.28
Goals per game, post-Olympic break: 5.39

The first Olympic break in modern history saw a slight bump in goal production. Sixteen of the 44 games played that week featured seven or more goals, highlighted by a a 7-4 slugfest between the victorious Los Angeles Kings and the Chicago Blackhawks.

2001-02
Goals per game, pre-Olympic break: 5.23
Goals per game, post-Olympic break: 5.77

Players returned from a thrilling Canadian victory over the U.S. at Salt Lake City ready to fill the net - and they did so at a staggering rate, surpassing the pre-break scoring average by better than half a goal. There were just five shutouts among the 52 games played the first week back.

2005-06
Goals per game, pre-Olympic break: 6.23
Goals per game, post-Olympic break: 5.92

Fans were treated to the most prolific scoring season in more than decade - but the breakneck pace of the pre-Olympic schedule proved unsustainable in the opening week back from Turin, Italy. That said, there were still plenty of high-scoring affairs; five teams scored seven or more goals in a game.

2009-10
Goals per game, pre-Olympic break: 5.65
Goals per game, post-Olympic break, 6.08

Another Canadian win over the U.S. for gold, another scoring boom when players returned to NHL ice. Teams posted just four shutouts in the 52 games that week, while 22 of those contests saw teams combine for seven or more goals.

Game of the Day: Oklahoma at Kansas

Oklahoma Sooners at Kansas Jayhawks (-11, 158)

Kansas put up one of the most impressive wins of the Big 12 season with an 85-54 drubbing of a ranked Texas squad Saturday to push its winning streak to three. The Jayhawks will quickly turn the page and try to clinch at least a tie for the Big 12 regular-season title when they host Oklahoma on Monday. The Sooners are one of three teams three games behind Kansas with four games to play.

The Jayhawks, who have as much talent as any team in the country with Andrew Wiggins and Joel Embiid rocketing up NBA draft boards, put it all together against the Longhorns on both ends of the floor. Wiggins buried three 3-pointers and added several highlight-worthy dunks as Kansas got out in transition and outscored Texas 26-0 on fast-break points. Oklahoma will not be afraid to get out and run with the Jayhawks; the Sooners nearly upset the Jayhawks at home on Jan. 8 before falling 90-83.

TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

LINE HISTORY: Kansas opened as a 11-point home favorite. Early odds in Las Vegas suggested a total of 158 points.

POWER RANKINGS: Oklahoma (-10.1) - Kansas (-16.7) + Home Court (-3.0) = Kansas -9.6

ABOUT OKLAHOMA (20-7 SU, 14-10-1 ATS, 14-10 O/U): The Sooners are among the nation’s leaders in scoring average at 82.8 and are coming off back-to-back wins, including an 86-73 triumph over Kansas State on Saturday. Cameron Clark went for 11 points on 5-of-9 shooting but has not reached 20 points since matching a career high with 32 in the loss to Kansas on Jan. 8. The senior swingman spent that game slashing to the basket against the Jayhawks’ bigger frontline but gave up enough size that Kansas posted a 36-22 rebounding advantage.

ABOUT KANSAS (21-6 SU, 14-12-1 ATS, 16-10 O/U): The Jayhawks needed only nine points from Wiggins and six from Embiid in the first meeting as fellow freshman Wayne Selden Jr. (24 points) carried the scoring load. Wiggins keyed a 32-5 run in the first half against the Longhorns and likes to get going early on offense. “When I start early it builds up my confidence in my game,” Wiggins told reporters. "Especially if I get a three, I feel like I’m on fire automatically.” Selden showed off his skills as a distributor with a season-high seven assists in the win over Texas, and Frank Mason Jr. rounds out the freshman quartet with long-range shooting off the bench.

TRENDS:

* Favorite is 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Over is 7-2 in the last nine meetings.
* Sooners are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings.
* Sooners are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Kansas.
