    Penguins/Isles series parlay

    I really like both teams to advance here. Isles are +135. Pens are around +110.

    The combo pays 4-1. If you don't like the pens and like the caps it still pays 3.25-1. I don't want to hear about betting individual games and all that shit.

    The isles are winning for sure. The lightning got a bye in round 1 and we're struggling at times vs a garbage wings outfit. The isles disposed of a good young panthers team. Now they will get rid of a another Florida team.

    I got $300 on this parlay . Pays $1185. Pens/isles to win the series.

    I also put $500 on isles series +135.

    A smart bettor would bet both at plus odds hoping to win one, a silly bettor will parlay and lose the bet

    Yes that's true.

    Smart bettor bets $100 on each. Pens win. Isles lose. Makes $10. Isles win pens lose. Makes$35.

    Silly bettor bets parlay. One loses and loses $100. Both win and makes $395.

    Then after all it is gambling and both could lose and smart guy will be out $200 while silly guy would be out $100.

    Yeah I don't like the isles bet but I agree with the other. Tampa didn't struggle at all in that series. The only game they loss was the game that they were penalized and spent the whole first period down a man and some of the second. Isles don't have the goaltending in my opinion to compete. If halak was there I could see this being a series

    Detroit controlled most of that series....they just couldn't get past bishop. Not creative enough, not skilled enough to score on big goalies. If Mrazek started from day 1 things could have been different

    I was on Tampa Bay coming out of that region before the first round and nothing has changed for me. The Isles didn't face a team with the firepower Tampa has plus they're at a severe disadvantage with their goalie. More than likely I'm betting Tampa this series.

    Betting like a man.

    Isles are a live bet - journeyman keeper steps in and steps up in the playoffs playing best of his career.

    Tavares top 5 in nhl. Lightning ain't that good without Stamkos. Detroit pushed them around. Just couldn't finish scoring chances.

    I'd greenlight anyone wanting a 2nd opinion about betting the Isles vs. the Lightning, no doubt. But with that said the Isles themselves were manhandled in every game vs. Panthers. Luongo was a dud - panther fans should be pissed at him instead the same ol' pissed at the refs routine.

    You're on crack if you believe that. Or the homer glasses are too thick. Either way just stop. Told you before and will tell you again, Detroit isn't and hasn't been better than the Lightning the last few years. Period. Maybe stick to NBA.

    They might have won by 1 goal but they never trailed other then the game they lost. They were bored with Detroit. And honestly if you lose 4-1 you were dominated in hockey. I'm not saying they are the best but the islanders can't pull off the upset with greiss in net. He's not good enough

    If you lose in 5 games and in your 4 losses you never have the lead you don't control shit. And last time I checked a goalie is a big part of the team. Bishop was bored in the crease. Nothing you've said in this entire playoffs has been right so your opinion is garbage. Go watch film

    He's good enough...every goalie is these days with how the NHL is played.
    People think Murray is good in Pittsburg now...

    Murray is good. He was a top goalie in ahl. He did amazing in his starts in the season. Comparing greiss and Murray is insanity. It seems like you only know what you've seen in the playoffs

    Toss up. Goaltending edge to Lightning. If Stralman can play would be a tremendous boost for the back line. JT Brown doesn't garner much attention outside of Tampa but his presence on the checking line makes a big impact; outside chance he could be back. I seldom bet on teams I root for so no bet for me, but I lean Lightning because of Bishop.

    you're just a blind square Goat...you also angry all the time cause you can't win

    I had DET to win the series (1 bet) and after watching a few games, I quickly realized that they just don't have any answers for TB in this series even with Stamkos out of the lineup. After that I've posted numerous plays on Bolts - search for it and you'll find it.

    Unlike you dumbfukk, I know how to be flexible and I can change my strategy on the fly to secure the profit.

    Continue to be the angry little bitch that you are.


    Salud!

    I very highly doubt it. The kid is a star in the making. He's just going to get better. Murray is taking fleurys job and keeping it. Check back with me at the end I think you're way off but I'll come back and congratulate you if I'm wrong
