PENDING ::
SERIES WIN - STANLEY CUP FINALS
WASHINGTON +201 // 2 units to win 4.02

the reason for the Under pick was poor ice condition in Washington before the game. That usually will lead to a tough scoring environment. I think it also made it harder for Vegas specifically, which relies more on speed.

Now that Washington leads the series 2-1 with the next game at home, the series wager is looking good. If that comes thru, I could be down just single digits for the playoffs which I'm satisfied with after the tough way the playoffs started for me.

Also Kuznetsov did play in game 3 and had both a goal and assist.

not sure what to do with tonight's game 4

Under 5.5 would seem repeatable because I don't expect the ice to be in any better condition

my first instinct was that Vegas will tie up the series with a win tonight....but I'm biased hoping for a hard-fought 7-game series....may not play out that way. I still do think Washington wins the Cup.

I kinda like the game to see Overtime, but enough of those picks already

Gonna pass tonight (unless I have an ah-ha moment today)

Good season. As stated before, playoffs would have been more profitable, but I got sidetracked by prop bets. Room for improvement next year. See you then!
