    yeah man, I've been a fan of SJ Sharks for close to 25 years now. Started following that team from the very first season, when they were still playing in Cow Palace in Daily City and barely managed to get 17 wins on the season.

    My 8yo son suddenly wanted street hockey gear and a jersey all in Sharks colors for Xmas during their first year too.

    Not even sure where he picked it up from as there was zero coverage of NHL down here in those days.

    Think they came out with cool colors and design and snagged a lot of young fans early that way.

    Good Luck, guys. Not entering anything tonight, no easy matchups. TOR/OTT to go over 5.5 maybe, but I don't trust the first game.

    You know it's a homer bet for me...so of course I'm gonna say YES. Plus Coach is on too...so I say at these odds and them playing at home, it's probably not a bad bet.


    Good luck Harry!

    Mark this checkbox, if you want to make your play a 2-unit play

    OVER are coming in like crazy. It will, without a doubt, slow down. Maybe we'll actually see some 6 point Totals out there, but if we do, expect the scoring to drop shortly thereafter.

    Here's a little info to share. All this research isn't my own, but some is:

    In the last ten years the average NHL save percentage has risen, nearly every year. Last year it peaked at .915.

    At this point this year, the goalies are a mere .898 in save percentage. It hasn't been this low in 20 years. It will go back up.

    In the last 10 years, the average goals per game has fluctuated between 5.3 and 5.7.

    This last week we see 6.5.

    Way back in 1993 the average was 6.5 goals per game for the whole season. In 1992 it was 7.25. Things have really come down since way back then.

    Generally, the average goals per game after 36 games is higher than the same stat at season's end. They won't likely keep this OVER pace.

    Here's what's happened with TOTALS in the last 10 years through the first 36 games...

    Year O-U Record Goals per Game
    2017 20-9-7 6.5
    2016 15-17-4 5.31
    2015 16-16-4 5.75
    2014 16-17-3 5.81
    2013 17-18-1 5.64
    2012 17-16-3 5.47
    2011 15-21 5.47
    2010 22-14 6.33
    2009 19-16-1 5.89
    2008 13-23 5.42
    2007 12-23-1 5.86
    2006 18-17-1 6.53

    Heavily priced 5.5 lines and 6 point Totals will be sign of a market turn.

    Some argue to hammer the OVER until the streak stops, but I argue that you can never tell when you are in a streak, only when one just ended.

    Things will level out and I hope the NHL is benefiting from the increased action.

    I can't believe it's been that long for the Sharks. I remember when they were brand new.

    Here are old logos and jersey designs in the link...
