    Hockey blokes check in

    There is this interesting NHL Prop bet that you guys can get on right now, that I think is worth a look.

    This one is from 5Dimes, but you can probably find better odds elsewhere.

    Field wins Pacific Division at +580



    Current Pacific division standings:



    After the All-Star break Kings & Arizona will have 33 games and Sharks would have 34 left to play.
    The difference between Sharks and Kings is 7 points, which is nothing in hockey. Plus Sharks have one extra game in hand.

    Both SJ and LA missed the playoffs last year and both clubs and Sharks in particular like to fall asleep in the 2nd half of the season. Now, while Kings looks like already started to play a bit sluggish (Last 10 games: 5-4-1)...The Sharks are surging (Last 10 games: 8-0-2), Obviously I don't know how long this surge is gonna last for, but with only 7pts difference between the two clubs and 2.5 months of hockey left to play, I think this Prop is definitely worth a closer look.

    Can't find this prop and odds in any other books though...maybe Tony is pulling a fast one here.
    Do you guys see this bet anywhere else?

    will they win the division though with Sharks on their tail, that's the question
    you know that 7 pts is literally nothing in hockey and we're talking 33-34 games left to play.

    Sharks are a great team, I have max futures on them as well. They only time they've struggled this season is without their best players. Fully healthy they've been a top 3 team in the league.

    Don't waste your money Rocket. Kings should cruise to the division title. In the age of 3 point games and how well the Kings are playing it will be tough for the Sharks to catch them. Zona is a nice story but they won't push them and I don't believe the Ducks are contenders this year.

    I'm not sure about Kings cruising, but their chances at winning the division are pretty good.
    I still think however that at this odds it's worth a small 100 dollar play.

    and I do agree with your about Zona and Ducks - I'd be very surprised if either one of those teams makes the playoffs this year.

    I'd rather take a shot on St. Louis winning the Central. Similar setup, they're 6 pts out with a game at hand on Chicago and one of their top 6 forwards and best snipers Schwartz basically hasn't played all season but is almost back from injury. Allen should be back soon too so Elliot can resume backup duty. Great goaltending, solid D that can move the puck, big forwards and the Russian stud Tarasenko.

    Both teams ahead of them in the standings have had massive winning streaks so far this season. Chicago just came off of like a 12 gamer and Dallas started the season red hot going like 20-5 or something ridiculous. St. Louis hasn't had but a mere 4 game winning streak so far, yet they're right there in the standings. I'm thinking law of averages. Regression toward the mean a bit for Chicago and Dallas while St. Louis is due for like a 7 game winning streak or a 9 out of 10 something like that as they get fully healthy. That's all they need to jump to the top at +750 or whatever the odds are and grind it out down the stretch like they've been doing all season so far through big injuries.

    The field bet against Chicago is only +115 since both Dallas and St. Louis are right there knocking the door down. That's why I singled out just St. Louis if you were wondering and not the field prop against Chicago which is more probable but pays shitty.

    Sure you aren't being a bit of a homer with this one Rocket?

    Ducks +1500 seems like the value to win div to me, But really expect Kings to hold on.

    haha...maybe just a little Opti...I do believe though that Sharks have a legitimate chance to bypass Kings in the standings here and win the division.

    Yeah very similar setup...a bit less games left to play for CHI/DAL/STL, than in LA/SJ scenario though.
    Plus it's hard to bet against Chicago, you know.

    But I do agree with you, this is definitely something to think about it.

    As predicted three weeks ago, Kings are now shitting the bed and Ducks are now sitting with just 2 pts behind LA, and Sharks are behind by 3.
    With 25 games left to play, the race to win the division should get very interesting.

    LA has still been playing very good hockey. This is a solid bet from RR, but make no mistake LA is built for the playoffs and will grind teams down.

    I think the Ducks can get this Division,won 4 of their last 5,are only two points behind LA for first. I like the field.

    Wish Bet365 had this prop.
