Bol with both selections in the Canadian-Czech game Bevoau but if you had to pick one, which of the two bets do you prefer most?

Once again as it turned out, the bookmakers set the line at -2 to attract as much U.S. money as possible. In the end they did, in the end the Fins won and finally in the end so did the oddsmakers. Btw for the record, Canada's drawback or so-called weak link going into this year's tournament is in nets, a position they're normally very potent in each year. With the States having a quality starter in Campbell, they weretherefore listed as favorites ahead of the Canadians to win this year's tournament in Edmonton. 

 


Where were the Americans listed as favourites?  Canada was almost even money at pinnacle and US was > 3:1

They were written as tournament favorites in nearly every article I read leading up to the tournament.

Goaltending was noted as the primary reason.

Always the trouble with wagering on a team you are emotionally invested in.  Canada wins 5-0, I'm pissed because neither wager covers. 
Lines for today look tough, -8,5 and O9,5.  Canada should and has to light it up, these are games where you pad your total goals stat.   Still, that's a lotta points to lay.

Thinking of a small parlay with both.  Not so much to get cheesed if it doesn't cover, enough to make it exciting.  Thoughts?

Nice call last night with the Can/Den O.  I was tempted to take Denmark at +PL but did not.

Anything tonight?
