Re: NHL thought / bet for tonight
I didn't say "always" and I also said it was my impression.
When I cap a game to try and find a fair line more times than not my dog line is closer to what the books have on the game.
When you...

Re: NHL thought / bet for tonight
I honestly believe you can't beat the books if you are always on the favorites. It's not to say there aren't times when the favorite is the way to go. But just because you were on the winning side...

Re: NHL thought / bet for tonight
Well glad I stuck with my gut feeling on that one. Went with LA against everyones opinion. Working on a nice 4-0 night if Edmonton can pull one out. Got a wild one going in Vancouver right now.

Re: NHL thought / bet for tonight
No doubt they are a great defensive team, but I just don't see how they can keep pace with their lack of offense. Especially in this new NHL. Eventually they are going to have to start scoring.

The over might not be a bad play on this game. It looks like Nashville will be starting Mason in net. Only problem is you never know what you are going to get with Khabibulin. He will give up 5 goals...

Re: 12/19 - NhlNut *ucks
Explain this to me! Wagerline has 65% of the bets going to Dallas, yet the line has now moved to Dallas -109. I don't get it. Is the big money coming in on Minnesota making the line move?

Re: 12/19 - NhlNut *ucks
I like Buffalo, Islanders, and Dallas. Staying away from Calgary and LA.
I know this is a touchy subject around here, but how can Dallas only be a -119 favorite? This smells like a trap game. I...

Re: NHL - Dallas vs Ottawa Tonight
Stars defense was down right oppressive. They really had the the Sens frustrated. Turco was gigantic! It definitely wasn't pretty, but a win none the less.
