    One prop I really like for the finals

    I think there is a lot of value in

    Ryan Kesler to win Conn Smyth +225, Risking 5 units to win 11.25 units

    The main concern is his injury. I know he came back last game, but if he's not 100%, he won't win it

    Even if he isn't 100% he's still gonna show up and his heart and motivation will get him the Conn imo. He scored the tying goal in game 5 against SJ coming back from that injury. Who else are they gonna give it too if it isn't him?

    Yup it's a good bet. If the Canucks win Kesler wins it. If Boston win Thomas will win it. This is barring someone going into absolute beast mode in the finals.

    That's a great wager. In my mind he could have a very mediocre (highly unlikely) BOS series and still take it. Cheers

    I agree. If Vancouver wins he wins it. One more thing that makes me like it even more is that Bodog which is known to put lines based on their own preferences has Kesler to win it at only +135. 5 Dimes still has +225 on this. Get on it boys

    Some analysts think that Tim Thomas is the big favorite for the conn smythe. if bruins win, its going to thomas. If Vancouver wins it, Kessler would be favorite on nucks team... but even if vancouver wins, thomas might still get conn smythe. Thomas has been that good. This isn't like in the NBA where the finals MVP is always on the wnining team. it isn't just a trophy for the cup finals. it's about all playoffs long. Think Kessler has a shot. think +225 is decent enough to take Kessler... but Thomas is also a big frontrunner as well. Can Kessler win it? of course. He's been great. But don't bet big and sleep on Thomas.

    Yeah ofc another player can win and If Boston wins I don't expect Kesler to win it unless he has a remarquable series against Boston. But none the less this is great value to pick the clear Vancouver front runner at +225 when the Canucks are favored at -230 to win the series.
