NHL Tuesday

0-1 yesterday -2.9 units

YTD 54-36 +29.43 units

Missed badly on Calgary last night.   

Still looking over games and will likely add more later but for now, one play to get those units back:

Parlay Mark Stone 0.5 pts/CBJ TT Over 2.5 (+105) 3 units to win 3.15.  Even during a losing streak, Mark Stone keeps getting his.  He has 1+ pts in 21 out of the 24 games he's played in.  He's on the top PP unit for Vegas and their power play still ranks 7th in the league (Jets penalty kill % ranks 21st).  As for the Jackets TT Over 2.5, Sharks goalie Askarov has given up 3+ goals in 11 straight games while CBJ has scored 3+ in 8 of their last 11.  

Probably add 1 or 2 more later but I'm pissed about losing last night and trying to be more thorough.

BOL on your plays tonight 

Don’t feel bad…I went 0-5 in NFL Sunday with largest wager on BALT (kicker was 25/25 under 50 yards, missed 44 yarder to win game, this after kicking ball out of bounds on kickoff and gave PIT ball on the 40 with a few minutes left of course they scored the winning TD)…

Then…I bet NHL - WASH, they lose….so I bet against them two more times and they win even with no Wilson).

Like Jerry Lee Lewis used to say “when your hot your hot, when your not your not”!

ONE PLAY TODAY….ZUCKER IS BACK (leads SABRES IN PP GOALS)…Start another streak AND home game against the lowly Canucks…GIVE ME THE FRENCH CONNECTION ML!

BOL today

 You said it yesterday…. Seattle is playing well … you should just not to bet that game… otherwise you’re doing well… always enjoy watching your selection…,  I lost on Wild last night as well … saw them play against the Ducks… they circled around them all night… but everyone does nowadays…. Well the Kings woke up at the right time and are different team than the Ducks… Minnesota played lazy yesterday… was questioning the effort… they have a great record, they don’t have to press every game…. Maybe it’s time to look at teams that are hungry not the ones that are fed well… 

Exactly...normally when I see opposing trends like Seattle and Calgary at home I just don't bet it.  I stayed away from Minnesota because they've been on the road a long time and have been playing a lot of games.  I think they're better than the Kings but even good teams get tired.

Adding:

NJD/NYI Under 5.5 (-118) 2.36 units to win 2.  The under 5.5 is 10-1 in the Devils last 11 games.  Sorokin coming back and Horvat being ruled out for the Islanders also lends itself to another under.

@FirefIy

 Besides you missed 1 game last night… you said that Duck’s games are to overs automatic till the trend ends.. and you were right and win that bet again… i don’t do overs - the games are hard as is… 

You could be right.. but Sorokin could be rusty.. you really don’t know what you’re getting out of him the first game.. 

@VinVortex

 I don't bet NFL for that reason lol.  So many unpredictable plays!  I'm looking at Buffalo myself.  My only question is, now that the streak is over will the Sabres rest on their laurels for a few games or are they still hungry?  Vancouver plays better on the road.  Buffalo should win but I think I'm just going to watch and see..

Good luck .. you are doing well .. don’t want to shake up your mojo..  

@FirefIy

 Maybe silly but I feel that when a CITY has a team doing well in another sport (Bills playoff game Sunday), it motivates team from another sport to be fired up and play well! Of course there is “regression of the mean” and Canucks Goalie is ranked 5/100…

Absolutely will watch this one tonight!!

Based on recent play it's Sabres all day.  It almost seems too easy and I'm sure I'll kick myself for not betting it later  Good luck if you play it!
