    Sup guys,

    Quick question,  does anyone know where to find "Opening Face Off" wins/losses information or stats? 

    I'm considering a chase that covers teams that win 50% or higher on their opening face offs, and that are playing at home.  But I can't find reliable stats on which team is winning.

    I appreciate the help.

    That's a tough one bro, if I find anything I'll pass it along.

    Where are you getting this prop from?

    Thanks Peter   I've been tailing your GA/GF system.


    Betonline.com  odds are -115 for both teams,  which isn't great. But I wanted to exploit it somehow.  I found total FOW % with the nhl.com website,  and I also discovered a nice chart showing that home teams have greater odds winning faceoffs because of positioning on leftwinglock.com

    https://www.leftwinglock.com/content.php?133-Navigating-Home-Bias-in-the-Faceoff-Wins-Category

    My may concern is providing evidence whether you won the prop 

    If I find anything worth while, I'll post again on this thread.

    Ok,

    This system is for the "Which team will win the opening face off." It's a props bet offered a betonline.com and I'm not sure if other sites have it,  let me know if they do.  The juice is set at -115 for either team you bet on.

    I managed to stumble on something pretty solid.  I've gone 6-0 so far and am starting to keep track as best as possible with the overall record.

    The system is as follows:

    Information based on the FOW% (face off win percentage) at the following site, it's in the last column. 
    https://www.nhl.com/ice/teamstats.htm

    1.  Find the best 10 FOW% teams and the worst 10 teams. (I              update this list twice a week)
    2.  Bet on a best 10 team to win the opening face off only when            they are playing against a worst 10 team.
    3.  The best team can be playing at home or away,  but home              teams typically win opening face offs more often.  (I may switch      to only betting home/best teams)
    4.  Profit


    Example:   Today,   Buffalo which is currently the 9th best FOW% team was playing at home against NY Islanders, which is the 9th worst FOW% team.  This bet won.

    I am currently flat betting at 1% of my bankroll

    Here are the list of plays for the next few days.
    Bet these teams to win the opening face off.

    Nov 30  Colorado, Minnesota
    Dec 1    Phoenix,  Vancouver
    Dec 2    Minnesota, Chicago, Colorado
    Dec 3    Chicago, Buffalo, Phoenix
    Dec 4    Minnesota, Vancouver
