I loaded Rangers and Habs series before the first game, hit them both on Game 1,
and Game 2 with Montreal... here's my worries...
watched all the games, and I know hockey because I played it.
ok. > planning to hedge partial with Ottowa +425 for series. no brainer.
Montreal overcame the Subban penalty and Pacioretty absence in Gm 1,
they were fantastic.. less so in Gm 2 despite both playing all game. Habs
just looked more vulnerable, less dominating, but they pulled through.
I see no reason why Ottowa can't take both games at home now. It is a
substantial risk to carry Montreal futures into two Ottowa games as desperate
and talented as they are.
Rangers.. despite being a heavy favorite, they didn't win very convicingly in Gm1.
They eeked it out and Pittsburgh still seemed rusty on offense. Fleury was solid.
Gm 2 Fleury was very hot. Crosby and other stars stepped up, rust gone.
Rangers couldn't answer.. how are they going to answer in Pittsburgh ?
I want out. I'll be left with a smaller interest in Rangers, as Pitt is +170.
Call me paranoid or untrusting but I feel both need to be hedged.
