East: this Conference is wide open. Any of the 8 teams getting in has legit shot to win 12 games and go to the Cup. The Atlantic will sport 5 teams most likely, unless something crazy happens, and those two teams Ottowa and Bahstahn are not easy 1st round opponents for whoever takes the top seeds. I think long odds bets on a few teams are worthwhile investments. Bolts are clear Fave, but beatable as we saw in the past couple years. Canes Andersen is a bit of a shell of his former self, and Bussi is basically a Rook, so they'll have their struggles.
Like a lot of series ot go 6 or 7 as well in Round 1 in teh East. Habs and Swords are solid teams, but relatively inexperienced in Cup hockey, and almost every team in East will have come close to almost 100 point seasons. One strategy is to bet Series to go 6 games & 7 games in the +180 to +240 range. Just need to have 2 series go 6 or 7 to make some coin.
Not sure about West - not touching Futures there except a flier bet maybe a Pacific team like Ducks or Kings. Shame that Stars and Mild face off Round 1 most likely. Those are 2 of the top 5 teams in league, and both top 3 in West. Avs path to Cup is very clear, and a larger wager on them to win Cup might be in order.
Now about that Split... Lipp's Playoff tactic has done poorly last couple playoffs. Lots of Faves dominating Round 1 and 2 where the Split used to make us hay. I like it this year, esp. in the East. I think we'll have 3-4 Game 1 dogs come barking, and the East is more likely than West. Problem is they won't be large dogs most of the time, but if we can get 3-4 dogs Game 1, the split has a shot to be relevant again. I think it also helps that we have several teams coasting now - Avs, Canes, Stars, Bolts all on Auto-Pilot and could come out slow/sloppy Game 1.
