yEa I like this line too.

bostonbruins · 01-15-09, 12:47 PM

On this as well, 7 of last 8 road wins by 2+. Danis will be put to the test tonight.

NYI don't have a goalie. Joey MacDonald is still questionable and DiPietro might miss the rest of the season. Danis and Mannino don't have a win yet in any of their starts.

This game is as close as a lock as their is in the NHL. ML might be the safest bet but I can't see BOS winning by only 1 goal.

Axis · 01-15-09, 02:23 PM

I used to see McDonald play when he was in Detroit's farm system, and he was alright, but yea...nothing really impressive. And McDonald got hurt last game and had to leave early...will he even be playing tonight?

BOS takes an avg. of 29.8 shots a game. Even if MacDonald is cleared it will be a patch work of goalie'ing by NYI. He is going to get pounded.

Maybe I am blinded or I am missing something here but out of every aspect in this game the only adv. that the NYI have is that it is a home game for them.

and even home advantage doesnt do anything. i used to think so. but it barely does.

Exactly my point. They will have a goalie starting that is horrible and only has 4 wins in 10 NHL starts.

Locked up BOS -1.5 @ +105

Over

Crayzee · 01-15-09, 03:54 PM

i was thinking of laying the -260 on this game
something i almost never do
i dont bet hockey alot but i dont like alot in hoops tonite

in hoops this would look like a trap but i dont see any way the isles could win this

ploben · 01-15-09, 03:55 PM

BOS PL just flip-flopped to become the favorite @ -105.

jscott1586 · 01-15-09, 03:56 PM

just locked BOS ML and the over

The only reason I hesitate on this is because that means BOS will have to score 5 goals...maybe 6. They will be the only team scoring in that game tonight

Plus the line just went to O/U 6. Now the Bruins HAVE to score at least 5 goals to hope for a push.

Jump on Boston -1.5 PL. I got it at +110. Thomas starting for Boston and Yann Danis. Who? Exactly. Boston should win this one like 5-1 or something like that. Isles worst team in league, Boston won 7-2 in earlier meeting this year. This should be a lock.

ploben · 01-15-09, 07:46 PM

Wow, 17-7 shots. Maybe BOS is just wearing them down.

You got to play them 60 min. still so we will see.

ploben · 01-15-09, 08:08 PM

Very nice play from Savard. Sometime you can't just stand around looking for a pass behind the net, just gotta get up front and put it on net. 5 more goals to go.

pocketlint · 01-15-09, 08:43 PM

Looks like...those of us who chose the OVER play do not want to hear anymore unless BOSTON goes nitro in the third and scores the rest of the 5.

Just when you thought they are poised to go on a scoring spree....they slump like always.

Good that I low-wagered this.

ploben · 01-15-09, 09:02 PM

4 to go

DennisGreen · 01-15-09, 09:28 PM

OMFG what a joke. Up 2-0 with 48 seconds and the Isles score. Boston also hit the crossbar on a 2 on 1 with like 2 mins left. Hahahahaha fcuk my life.

ploben · 01-15-09, 09:29 PM

Ouch. That hurt the ol' bankroll

Axis · 01-15-09, 09:40 PM

^^
I didn't put that much on it, if Tampa and Toronto win I should be alright.

DennisGreen · 01-15-09, 09:42 PM

Yeah me either just 50 to win 55 was a worthy risk. Still hurts though.

ploben · 01-15-09, 09:51 PM

$100 on it, usualy a $20 unit player. Well I have a few CBB out there and CLG tonight. Need to win some back for the big push on sunday with the Ravens.
