Noticed this one too... what gives? am i missing something?!

Fernburn74 · 01-06-11, 11:06 AM

is the line that today cause Lawson is starting in net for the islanders???
roli gone and d is hurt ???

nli07 · 01-06-11, 11:19 AM

I like Lawson over Dipietro.

Bottom Line.

bigsmitty · 01-06-11, 12:17 PM

I agree-strange line. EDM has come close to winning against some good teams recently but bottom line is they have key injuries and are mired in a losing slump. Good value.

Fernburn74 · 01-06-11, 12:23 PM

sawyer what do u think of MINNY +162 they alway play the bruins really good
no powerplay goals for boston in 10 games vs minny! pls let me know what you think cause love following your plays of the dogs!

Edmonton will win tonight, many reasons why. Good value taking them in Regulation.

mart59a · 01-06-11, 01:33 PM

The Islanders are hot now. I cashed in the last three games when they were +1.5 dogs, so I'll definitely be on them +0.5 at Edmonton.

I don't buy that...last game was Monday. That's plenty of rest IMO.

jonnyboy21 · 01-06-11, 02:00 PM

Exhausted? No way. Islanders are a great value bet, just like they were at Detroit...

Heck, if they can win at Detroit, and beat the Pens at home, they can win in Edmonton. Oilers have been very poor overall this season and can be beaten by most teams home/away.

The thing about shitty teams going on streaks is that they always seem to lose when they face the weakest possible opponent.

mrginandtonic · 01-06-11, 02:03 PM

Why did the line move from +115 to +130??

gigicash · 01-06-11, 02:08 PM

too easy

Ruifgalmeida · 01-06-11, 02:22 PM

looks like a trap, but I am on the islanders, my opinion this game is a coin flip any of this teams can win.

I like the Oilers to end their losing streak tonight.

Does it matter? Don't let the line movement effect you.

jonnyboy21 · 01-06-11, 05:48 PM

Agree with Sawyer, if you believe in a team to win, don't be dissuaded by line movements and public opinion!

Edmonton is favored cause they are a Canadian team.....and Canada is the Almighty Hockey
Power in the World......

Until last night's disgusting performance in Buffalo....

Looks like the oddsmakers are still buying into the Canadian hockey supremacy myth....

The NHL is comprised of mostly Canadian players, The Islanders best players are Canadian, The Oilers best players are Canadian.... get a clue.

Blackhawks98 · 01-06-11, 08:08 PM

Edmonton played Detroit tough recently.

I am just still on 7th Heaven from last night's Gold Medal game......

JC2008 · 01-06-11, 08:52 PM

Betting this game to go to OT/draw at around +300 is a good wager in my opinion.

Axis · 01-06-11, 09:26 PM

Well, oddsmakers new something. Hopefully the Isles can pull out of this early hole.

...that reads so wrong on many levels.

Sawyer · 01-06-11, 09:30 PM

Unlucky start for Islanders..

gigicash · 01-06-11, 11:28 PM

"It's tempting to lay the price here, particularly considering the home team has won the prior two meetings this season between these teams, but we're not falling for the trap. The Coyotes are 10-5 SU on the road playing with same season revenge while the Blues are 5-14 SU off a loss. Good underdog value here"

What's happening Sawyer....NBA totals coming back ?????
