Quick question about hockey odds

[crackerjack]

At my book, they offer Draw +1.5 at about -200 or so. Does this mean if it's a one goal game either direction, the draw bet wins? Seems intriguing...

ive never seen that worded that way? what book? can you copy and paste the offering exactly as you see it?

it seems like maybe its a +1 1/2 puck line bet just worded strange..

which game and what is the normal 3 way line on the same game?? that will help determine what they are offering here

[crackerjack]

VANCOUVER +145
ANAHEIM -165
Draw +1½-205

It looks like this...it's offered for every game.

There's also a puck line...

VANCOUVER +1.5 -205
ANAHEIM -1.5 +175

No one knows? I'm going to assume I'm right...

That's just weird, why would anyone take VANCOUVER +1.5 at worse odds if you can get both teams +1.5 at better odds then? Okay, same odds but still...

Well it's a little different since Vancouver winning by two would make one bet a loser. It is weird and maybe I'm wrong about how the bet works. Apparently no one here knows for sure...
