wagering 3.9 units on Dallas Stars ML including OT to win 3 unit

[JAHgger4noz]

Minny -150, including OT!

I thought Harding was between the pipes on Wednesday, that's why I liked them against the Flames but jeeez 5 straight goals. They should get 4 points for that against a cheap, stingy team like the Wild. He better be in tonight.

I thought Harding was between the pipes on Wednesday, that's why I liked them against the Flames but jeeez 5 straight goals. They should get 4 points for that against a cheap, stingy team like the Wild. He better be in tonight.

You would prefer the backup goalie Harding over the starting goalie Backstrom? Im not sure i get that logic.

Last nights loss with Minn up 3-0 and Cgy coming back to win is like in poker when you flop trips and your opponent hits runner runner straight to beat you...it doesn't happen often but it does happen..but ill put my whole bankroll on a 3 goal lead with minny anytime

[BossRoss]

MINN -135(3 Units), "Humbling Loss" last night, but play much weaker EDM team and should bounce back even with Back-up Goalie Josh Harding, who's 2-0-0 0.50 TY and had 1st career road shutout AT EDM last year(W 5-0 and had 30 saves)

NYR -143(2 Units), Under-achieving Rangers get back home to face a NJ team playing their 9th straight road game(3-4-1 so far and play 1st home game this SAT and tough for me to picture them going .500 on that trip) Scott Gomez also faces his former team for the 1st time and NY is desperate for some offense and think once they get the 1st goal out of the way, the flood gates will open(they've lost last 2 games 1-0 each) because this team is flat-out too talented to stink like this and think today's the day they get it going at home!

ST.L +109

BOST -133

TB -119

PITT -1.5 +146

ANA -1.5 +136

NJ/NYR UNDER 5 +100

P.S. Backstrom was the one who gave up 5 unanswered last night and the back-up(Harding) will be in tonight for MINN!

GOOD LUCK TODAY GUYS!!!

[ryeguy]

TOR/PITT

Good luck to all tonight in pucks!!

One more play for me...McCabe is injured so there is value here.

I'm already on Pitt tonight, McCabe being out makes the Leafs better defensively, IMHO he is only "good" on the power play as a goal scorer, other than that I haven't liked his play at all. He makes waaay too many mistakes, even on the simplest plays.

10*pittsburgh -0.5 -121
10* minnesota -146


concerning last nights game vs calgary, minnesota was crusing with the 3-0 lead when veilleux started picking on Phaneuf and eventually fought him. That particular play woke up the beast.

[EGGY6199]

Okay didn't know where to post this as its a mix but here goes. 2 hockey bets included

I am playing a Yankee on: 3units a line 11 bets total 33 units.

Colo to win at 2-1. Sorry but these guys have off and Schilling got battered by them this season. Also the rookie pitchers has been great and took Boston down this year!!. Total over reaction on the line. Colo should be 6/5 to evens

Boston: College Football. Should be favoured in this game as they have the better D and off with VT starting QB out. 31/20

Min to beat Edmo. NHL 4/6 they own this team and Min are better this year. Great odds for a domination game.

St Louis V Colombus under 5 goals 23/20. Two good goalies and Def teams playing each other. Expect a pass a worst.

[icemantbi]

I'm taking a shot at NHL tonight (all 1 unit):

Atlanta +139

St. Louis +105

Philly +115

Dallas -126

[cobra_king]

Columbus -115 5.75 units Ot included

[bengals888]

play on bos-143, ny rangers-147 minn-155 and nasville....

[figjam]

Although im hesitant to make this lay with Demitra out of the lineup, i think this is minnys bounce back game after last nights heartbreaking loss. Plus they own the oilers recently.

Minnesota Wild
Spread -0.5 for Game +111

[WestsidePete]

EDM +125 2 units to win 2.5
DAL -130 5.2 units to win 4

[betplom]

Arrrrgggggghhhh!!!!!


Man! Sometimes this game is so annoying.

Pittsburgh was a big play for me and they looked flat and uninterested, I wasn't shocked at the Leafs win, they were good on the road last year and seem to be more relaxed away from all the hype at home.

My other play was on Anaheim, they are making Phoenix look good at the moment down 1-0. It's the lack of intensity that is most annoying.

[JAHgger4noz]

Still early in the season betplom. It wont be annoying when u hit your hot streak. Sometimes it's just timing. I was also eyeing ana last night. Puck line possibly. Then I read that Getzlaf wasnt going to play. Looked thru that lineup and thought man, no way they can win by 2 (even against Phx)
Also they had no niedermeyer still ....and no bertuzzi, and no schneider.

God dam TB's empty net killed me. 4-2 . And they just had to pull the goalie
Even though its the right play.....they just had to do it when i had action on the total. Going to have to lay off back to back Totals

[figjam]

That was a hurting nite for me too boyz...damm STL, and NJ both layed and egg and pitts came out flat too. To top it off i should have stayed with my gut instinct and stay away from minny game but instead i had to have itchy fingers and they decided to play like the leafs.
