    NHL labby thread

    In this thread, picks are simple..... play a team who just hit a 4 game win streak, fade teams with 4 game losing streak. Continue playing until the streak is broken. Will start new lines as multiple streaks are bound to happen at once. Edmonton and Vancouver are both on 7 game streaks, but won't be playing either during this streak since I missed the boat on them.

    I'm keeping this small due to not knowing exactly how well this will work.

    Listed are my plays in actual big time money amounts.

    Line 1

    2 2 2 2 2 2 2

    Play: Predators +150 (fading Kings, currently on 4 game losing streak)

    4 to win 6

    Keeping an eye on Ottawa tonight. If they lose, it'll be time to start fading them.

    Tailing Minnesota now, fading NJ.

    When open lines are available, I will be playing the team with the least amount of juice or largest dog (whatever the case may be) on the line with the largest number at the end, strictly from a money management standpoint. Updated lines for today:

    line 1

    2 2 2 2 4 - tail min - 6.9 to win 6

    line 2

    2 2 2 2 2 - fade Ott - not playing

    line 3

    2 2 2 2 2 - tail Preds - not playing

    line 4

    2 2 2 2 2 2 2 - fade NJ - 5.2 to win 4

    Updating.... bad night last night, 0-2 lost 12.10. Total now is at -.1 Nothing much going on today, will be checking to see if Detroit wins to start tailing them and St Louis loses to start fading them.

    Will start fading San Jose and Columbus their next games

    Question:

    Wouldn't you want to do the opposite of what you are doing with tailing the winning team? I assume you're just trying to jump aboard the hot teams?

    It's not very often teams make runs in the NHL of 5/6+ game winning streaks...so fading them...wouldn't that bring in more of a profit because you'd be betting +money as well?

    Just a thought/question as to your choice...I'm interested in the reasoning.

    Good question, I was thinking that when I came upon this thread myself. Interesting way to track streak stats though. CIao

    Went back and checked a week or so ago.... fading a team that just hit a 4 game losing streak or tailing one that hit a 4 game had gone 35-29 so far this season.

    Teams to start tailing:
    Flyers (Thursday)
    Toronto (Thursday)

    Teams to start fading:
    Calgary (Friday) - (Note: may not play Calgary on Friday. They play @ Ottawa. If Ottawa loses again on Thursday, since both teams would be on losing of 4 or more, that will become a no-play game)

    Owchies....... that one line is getting a little piled up! Probably should've played Philly on a smaller line given all the juice, but hindsight is always 20/20. Right now at -22.71. If Edmonton continues this skid for a few more games, I'll be feeling better haha.

    I had some crap come up last couple of days, so couldn't pay much attention to plays and what to do. However, I'm glad I wasn't able to. Would've been pretty rough.

    Figured this was worth a shot, but streaks just don't last long enough for this to be worth doing, IMO. Thought it'd work a little bit better, but guess that's the way it goes.

    However, you will see me back with a similar MLB thread in a couple of months, looks like that one will work quite a bit better
