The Lippsman Split

@emoltzan

 I have been looking for line combinations to see if he is considered a first line forward over the course of the regular season. The criteria is he has to be a first liner or no? CBS sports has him as a third liner. If I am not mistaken....line combos can change from the regular season to the playoffs. Thoughts?

I just locked in Blues +181. Might get to +185 but I ain't gonna risk it.

Damn that line just keeps sliding, I got +170 but seems like that's not great anymore. 

Love this tradition. Lippsman legacy lives on ??

Thinking for Lippsman

Sens and Mild fit system today.  Lack of Jacko negates the Devils.

Really not liking putting money on Mild here - Vegas just flat out owns this team (Mild have 1 victory vs 8 losses H2H last three seasons...)

Anybody keeping track of the system is doing?

I'm 0-2 skipped the Devils, Have Min and OTT pending today ?

Not sure if Dal and STL were plays yesterday, Any help with update which qualify as a play here would definetley help

@FTP

I think it’s 0-1.  Dallas was the only play last night as St Louis was missing a top line guy.  The Devils did not qualify for the same reason.  Ottawa and Minnesota both qualify tonight.  

Man just like last year, bad start. 

@emoltzan

 That man is resting in peace you guys leave the guy alone 

@Big5

?, I just said bad start like last year. 

@Wufpack

 STL was a play and lost.  Dallas was not due to the absence of Jason Robertson.  You are correct for yesterday. 

Split is currently 0-3.  It is not a guarantee to win every game, it is a system play that sometimes requires all 16 Round 1 games to turn a profit, which includes some losses.  Some years it does not profit.  It is not for the faint of heart.  Or new kids on the block. 

At current odds, STL and Montreal are plays.  Robertson still out, so Dallas does not qualify.  Oil would qualify at +120 or better odds, if you can find it. 

@dyamarik

Thanks for the update.  I’ve been playing the system and it’s definitely not for the faint of heart!

Betting dogs is always tougher but keep in mind that faves are 5-0 in the playoffs so far and the books will begin to adjust accordingly.  

@dyamarik

Robertson was surely considered a 1st-liner? I know he bounced around a bit but also top scorer so could justify. 

Took a shot on the Wild at juicy odds… would have been nice to win.

Unfortunately, they were true to form and puck did not go their way game 1.

GLTA!

@marcus

I did as well, watched the whole game. They played pretty well but overcoming the PPG by Vegas seemed too much. They had a chance with their own PP they desperately needed but didn't get it done. 

All the chalk up so far.  Even if half the series go 2-0 that’s a real solid ROI up coming. 

EDM up to +117, very close & tempting 

@emoltzan

 that's a good line.  I took them at +110, given the history of last 3 playoff matchups.  Oil are renting space in the Kings heads, and I like them to take one in Hollywood.

@spottie2935

 best way to approach it - as Polar Bear would say: There's gold in them there hills... 

What games are in play today ?

ty 

MTL

STL

EDM

favs are now 7-0 to start the playoffs 

Doggies are coming...have to be very selective and pound it...I will be on the Blues first game back whether they are dogs are not.
