Cotes 2013-2014 NHL Picks

[tombuckers]

I was negative yesterday again Cotes, takes a week or 2 to get into it so no worries yet. Only 3 games tonight, what is everyone thinking?
Im thinking over in Carolina and Canucks to win on the road on a b2b at a decent price too (-130), was going to leave the jets/ducks game alone but Ducks at plus money might temp me, what does everyone think?

So far I was liking carolina to take this one. They should of held on to the lead they had in Detroit so can't see them letting this one go. And plus Philly sucks and in back to back games

Also Emery is not in net for Philly, its Mason. I think im going to leave the moneylines as im not sure for either but gonna take a crack with the over probably -120 is not too bad a price.

Alright, gonna take a break from football since I'm getting dominated anyways and focus on some hockey. No B2B games tonight unfortunately.

Only two games tonight, let's try to pin these down. You can take Rangers +$ ML or Kings +$ in regulation. Kings were dominant at home last year, can we expect the same this year?

Same with Oilers vs Devils - Can take Devils +$ ML or Oilers +$ in regulation. Thoughts?

[Huckleberry Pig]

Initial leans I like Kings at home and Devils on the road.

Oilers are scoring and have held some leads, but they just can't keep the puck out of the net. Idk what has happened to dubnyk but when will he get back to form? I have a little more confidence in this Devils team than I do the Oilers at this point.

Kings were dominant at home last year and I look for them to continue that in their home opener. Would like the under at 5.5 but at 5 i'll probably pass. Think they play lockdown D against a Rangers team that only scored one goal on the road in their first game. Rangers have had several days of rest though so we will see if they are more fresh. I actually think it's too many days rest. Sometimes if you take too much time off you get a little rusty again. Liking Kings at home in reg.

Nugent-Hopkins probably returning for Oil tonight and looks like LaBarbera in net. He played in relief against Vancouver with 12 saves and can't be worse than Dubnyk has been. Really think it's Oil or pass on this one.

Initial lean is also LA in the late game, some rumblings that Callahan may return for Rangers.

just saw that about Hopkins, definitely changes things. They really haven't had trouble scoring, it's their goaltending that's been abysmal. I agree with ya, if LaBarbera can play well they win

I'm with you on the devils. locked them in this morning and got a little bit better line at +115. looking into the kings game now

Yeah Neugent Hopkins is in forsure tonight but i agree with you, its their goaltending and defence. I think brodeur should have a solid game tonight

[cotes17]

I'm leaning to the under in that game aswell, thoughts?

liking the lean of LA odog. even if callahan returns tonight, its their defence that struggles. Not to mention that the Kings are good at home. Would probably have to take the -1 or regulation line though, -139 on moneyline is a bit much

Thanks man. Not as good of an ending there. I'm not sure where stars is. Haven't seems him once yet. Maybe he'll come around a few weeks in

[cotes17]

Wow what the fuk New Jersey. Let in 4 goals in the 3rd period and lose the game in a shootout... Another blown lead

Yesterday

0-2 -$200

YTD: 9-16-3 -$654

[hockey216]

had NJ too. blowing 3 goal lead in 3rd period always hurts.

Yeah that was brutal man. Don't understand how that can happen but it did. Have to get it back tonight

[Lift2beFit]

I think im gonna tail you and tom tonight depending on the picks, you guys took a tough loss yesterday (even though i was on the oilers, sorry lol).l

Theres some good games to take tonight and i have my leans, but i feel as if you guys start to even up your records...

[Huckleberry Pig]

like the devils tonight with schneider in goal. They played well last night until the 3rd period. Think schneider helps them in goal and if they can put a few in the net should be able to hold on this time.

only thing that scares me is they were 2-7 last year in B2B situations.

[Huckleberry Pig]

also like Sharks at home in reg and the under in that one (U5 @ +100). Like the under more than the side though

[Huckleberry Pig]

Panthers at +$ is interesting given how poorly flyers have played as well

[Huckleberry Pig]

also like lightning over sabres at even $

[Huckleberry Pig]

Wild at +$ too. lots of road teams I like it appears.

[anoun]

Wild at +$ too. lots of road teams I like it appears.

So what will be your picks for tonight Huck?

[USAF K9]

Im thinking Parlay Wild and Under in Rangers game any thoughts ?

[tombuckers]

You gonna do a star rating for your plays tonight??

I've had about 4 or 5 blown leads already only like a week into the season lol hope my luck turns around soon

i would take the devils tonight lol maybe because of what they did to me last night but if any of their game tonight is like their third period last night, they wont last long

[cotes17]

Liking the Under in the sharks game Huck. Not sure about a side yet but i agree with the under
