    How do you bet differently in the playoffs?

    What are some things to look out for on top of regular season games?

    Home ice advantage is huge in the playoffs. Usually you can chase the home team for at least one win on home ice. I don't think I've ever seen the home team get swept in a playoff series, and I've been watching hockey for almost 30 years.

    14 games of 48 in the first round went into overtime and 25 of the 48 were 1 goal games... its playoffs.. so most games will be very close. Id say your best bet is betting on the +1 line since they could also very well win the game

    Not teams that held home ice to start. I can tell you guys aren't big hockey fans when you don't know what terms like home ice advantage mean.

    OTL check in.

    I saw a post from the other day where you proclaimed you knew your hockey.

    You must've learned a lot in one year.
