    One thing I dont understand is how a game goes from -140 to -210 just because they "have to win"

    Do books assume the opposing team will just lay down and give up a W?

    Tampa, Detroit, and Minnesota all have come out playing hard, and all of them had nothing to play for.

    What is the reason to move the line 70 cents, ill tell you why. Its to get all the suckers to bet on the favorite thinking its a lock and the only one who wins are the books.

    Every sportsbook in the world is laughing at us right now, I feel like an idiot right now.

    Still only 2 shots that whole period by the Stars. Unacceptable. Only goal was on a two man advantage too. Show me some good live hedge lines please Pinny

    I guess all us suckers are learning the hard way. I'd assume a lot of people that don't follow hockey (like me) are seeing these scenarios and unloading. It works in the NBA and NFL. The team that has to win almost always wins and wins easily. The other team usually just rests their starters and give up, or if it's an eliminated team like Minnesota they just play a bunch of scrub players and get blown out. Lesson learned to stay away from NHL. Next year I will just bet the over in these situations.

    Hmm almost a perfect hedge if I shove $1000 on the Wild at +136 LOL. Probably should just do it but I'm a degenerate

    Yeah I probably should right now but I'm too much of a degen. Will give the Stars the 3rd to go for it. If it goes to OT I definitely will attempt to hedge it and cut my losses.

    Don't go for the hedge. . . the 3rd period will be their best they got all the nerves out and should be fired up to outwork the opposition

    Come on Dallas. I've got 15 minutes to get a goal. I took -0.5 -135 since I figured they will pull the goalie in OT and lose on an empty netter anyways. Now a power play for Minny

    Dont think the Hawks will be too excited about this, backing into the playoffs. Bitter sweet spot for them.
