Tonight looks a bit rough for underdogs, like NJ a bit as a small dog... Looking more into the canes as a possible play... Any thoughts for tonight dharm?

[jonnyboy21]

The Jackets not even close... it took me several months to build some trust in this team and start taking them seriously. And now they screw me everytime I bet them... At least threw a unit on Ottawa live right before ot, so it paid the Jackets´bill. But I do seem to have difficulty to hit a proper pre-game winner these days

Well I'm always here for ya

I think the best value is on the Canes tonight. Tampa has not been as good at home recently as they have been.

I also think there is value on Ottawa tonight and if you like the under, do an if bet or parlay with Ottawa.

Yes, not a good night for dogs, or so it seems. I am afraid of the loss of motivation on the Devils´side, as their play-off hopes died out. Florida might have a shot, also Atlanta has caught my eye... but I gotta admit that these two are rather shaky As for the Canes, I like them, but they don´t like me.. ehm, apart from that, I think Tampa might take this one at home on Friday night Anyhow, let us know what you finally decide to play, if possible

Ottawa might have a momentum from the previous night. But I wouldn´t take them on b2b against the Caps...

Thanx, buddy, I appreciate that. I couldn´t miss noticing how well you´ve done recently. However, I fear that this trend would change at the very moment I´d start tailing ya No, seriously... I´m more than fine financially, it´s just my bettor´s pride getting hurt a little by the NHL doggies . And tailing someone will not heal my wounds, so to speak But thanx again and I hope your nice streak continues!!

Haha nah you know I take the superstitious crap with a pinch of salt ....

Anyway, my dog thoughts for tonight well....nothing on the card tonight particularly stands out in terms of betting, so if I play anything i'll just stick the odd half Unit or Unit on them.

Potentially I've got the Canes, Panthers and Sens and will probably put a little bit on each and see what happens. Good chance of the Caps not giving two sh*ts about tonight in fairness and why should they?

As for the Panthers....I've bet against them joyously and successfully this season but there are certain spots when I like them and this is one of them. +200 is stupid, Buffalo aren't that reliable at home (they tend to perform better on the road).

I'm with you, seems like every time I put down on the canes this season they showed me no love what so ever... that being said, I just put 1 unit on the canes ML

[Dharmonize]

I guess I´ll be taking Florida.. and for some reason Atlanta as a nice homedog keeps coming back to me...

[Dharmonize]

GL with the Canes, then! I got burned by them too, but they might as well be the only dog coming through today, since I´m passing on them

[Dharmonize]

Just took both Florida and Atlanta, 1 unit each. GL with whatever you play tonight, everyone!

[Dharmonize]

This deserves no comment at all...

[Dharmonize]

And by the way, congrats Carolina and Ottawa backers!

[dvw5bf]

can't believe the canes came thru, albeit a little sketchy at the end there ... any looks for today, without looking into anything other than lines, my initial leans are DAL and ANA... poss TOR

[Dharmonize]

I don´t like anything much despite so many games on board today... but I´m gonna take a closer look at the Devils, Lightning, Leafs, Caps, Isles, Stars and Ducks. I agree with "what a crazy nickname" friend here , that out of these, the Stars and Ducks seem to be the strongest leans.

[jonnyboy21]

The Lightning was the first thing that jumped out at me..seems an obvious play as home and homes are usually split and they'll want revenge.

This is just what I think!

[Dharmonize]

I took the Avalanche for a unit. I don´t believe it will hit, more like the opposite...I was thinking about taking the Kings pl instead... but this is a free-play I got as a bonus, so I had to choose a bet with the highest possible payout. I don´t really care about this one, so don´t even consider this "an official" play.

[Dharmonize]

Free bet buried

[Dharmonize]

No point in betting teams that are done for the season and trying to pick up spoilers. I really feel like playing favs at this point. Everyday I see so many potential winners, and yet I still keep taking dogs and losing. Finding value in dogs seems to be working well during the regular season, but I am not sure about the last month... This is the worst dog month (NHL) I´ve had in 3 years. From now on I´m really gonna be taking only the teams that still have a chance to make the play-offs.

[Dharmonize]

Tampa Bay Lightning, 2 units, GL!

Well what can we say man? That's how we roll ....cash it!

[Dharmonize]

Jippikayjei Congrats, jonnyboy, I noticed in your thread you were on them too! I needed this one bad.

[Dharmonize]

Wow, what´s happened to the Wild? I couldn´t find the balls to even come to think of taking the Blues, I really thought Minny would get the job done at home tonight. I´m so glad I didn´t take them despite being tempted to bet some favs today.

[Dharmonize]

I´m thinking about giving the Jackets one more chance. It´s clear who the better team is here. No discussion about that. But will the Nucks really care today? Two of their last 3 meetings were close and went to ot. I also like the Bruins today. But there´s still plenty of time to decide...

[Dharmonize]

I just took the Panthers by an accident for 0.5 unit I had only wanted to count the possible winnings, and then thought I was pressing cancel.. but it was the confirm button... every book uses different software and I´ve got these learned, reflexive movements, fook

[Dharmonize]

That game was closer than I´d think, but I knew it was lost the very moment I made the wrong click. Never in my life so far have I won a misplaced bet, it´s like an iron rule.. show me something new

[Dharmonize]

I´m passing on Columbus. They´ve disappointed me too many times. Now those bums can win...

[Dharmonize]

I was planning to take the Bruins, but decided to take the over 5.5 at + 120 instead. I guess Sundays are my time for totals Now it can end 4:1

[Dharmonize]

2:1 Bruins...yeah, sure.. whatever

[Dharmonize]

Oh Lord, my internet connection froze completely for more than 2 hours, I wanted to bet Chicago, but now that they have a lead, there´s no point in taking them live

[Dharmonize]

I wanted to play Colorado tonight, I wanted it bad, but as I said earlier, I won´t be betting on teams that can´t make the play-offs. I gotta be the man of principle If Colorado wins today, it´s gonna be a hard punch in my face...

[Dharmonize]

Lots of dogs today, but I have other business to take care of, so I´m gonna bet only one game that has caught my eye. My team for tonight will most probably be Minnesota Wild, since I guess that after losing 8 in a row, they should man up in this one against the Blues.

[Dharmonize]

The Wild, 1 unit. GL with your plays, everyone!
