    I will track everybodies plays, so please make sure you post a line.

    Also, I don't mind if you post parlays, teasers, or round robins, but these plays will not be reflected in the standings.

    Hi Metra,

    I'm new to hockey betting, so here goes a stupid quesiton:

    Are you placing a Moneyline bet on the Canadians for the First Period? What does the 1.8 stand for?

    Thanks!

    1.80 is decimal pricing. In American odds it converts to -125


    American = -[100 / (Decimal - 1)] [For Decimal values less than 2]



    For Decimal values of 2 and above, it is a positive line, in which case:

    American = (Decimal - 1) * 100

    Sabres lose 5-0. Avalanche win 5-0. Lightning lose 6-5 in OT after being down 5-1 going into the 3rd period. What a night.
