I've been tinkering with a formula for calculating NHL totals that uses a Poisson Distribution model and it's been running OK so far this season - 57% on Totals, just under 54% on ML bets, 56% on Grand Salami bets. Not making me rich, but running OK and always trying to improve and better work out units.

So, I've decided to start posting the picks here to track, feel free to tail, fade or ignore. I am probably a day late, as I was 5-1 yesterday including hitting the PHX-NYR Draw @ +310. I'm sure now that I'm posting them I'll immediately go 0 for the next 20.

Anyway, here we go:

I love your Montreal/NYI draw pick. I also think Nashville/St. Louis has a good shot at going to OT. Same as Anaheim/LA.

Tough night for those, but we'll hit them tomorrow - just need a little better than 1 in 4 to be profitable on those

Didn't expect such a demoralizing beat-down, although I guess I should have - that's why I'm a beginner. :-)

That will be the end of this thread, as I humbly go back and try to come up with a better system.

BOL all ...
