    Devils Odds Dropping?

    I am quite surprised how quickly the moneyline has come down for the Devils. I have not made this pick yet which is fine with me, but I am worried I have overlooked something. I will likely wait until puckdrop to make this pick at the rate it is going. Is everyone laying on the Stars?

    Any team that is 9-0-1 in their last 10 playing a team that is 2-7-1 and have lost 4 in a row should expect this kind of line.

    Interesting, but you really have not explained anything. It would be helpful if you answered my question instead of essentially saying "it is what it is."

    The line is accurate so it is what it is. To answer your question I am not laying on the Stars.

    am i seeing(remembering) this correctly, I just checked it a few minutes ago and it was at -135. Now it's at -125.

    What did this line open at?

    the line is set to attract betting, not to predict who is going to win the game. i really do not think you are understanding what this thread was started for. i am trying to understand why a team that i believe to be a favourite to win this game has its line dropping. when you say the line is "accurate", you are referring to accuracy in what way? i expect better from a fellow oil fan

    it is very possible depending on the book you were looking at. pinny opened yesterday at -130, dropped to -117 yesterday, then went offline, reopened at -121, and is now at -114. i think devils have a good chance to win this one so im not too worried. just looking for some clarification

    at BM, it's currently at -125. Man I wish pinnacle was available to Americans.....
    The only thing pointing to Dallas is that NJ hasn't won in Dallas since 2002, but I'll take current form over historical trends tonight. Going with NJ. GL bro

    wow, was about to go bet it and now it's at -120. I'll just wait until gametime. This thing is falling steadily.

    Moose is in net for NJ tonight and he's been playing lights out during this run. I could see if brodeur was in net to for the line to drop a little but im confused as well on this. 68% of the public is now on the devils which has gone up 3% since I looked this afternoon. Still at -125 for me dropped from -130. I still like NJ tonight even if it does seem fishy.

    and Brad Richards is out also. I don't see any reason why the line would be dropping or any reason not take the devils tonight. Public money is on the devils so I guess "sharp" money is on the stars. fcuk that. Fcuk the sharps, If the devils lose 5-0 tonight, I'll still back my play and believe the devils were the right play tonight.



    looks steady at -120, I'll take the devils at this price. BOL everyone.

    Sharps jumped on Dallas when the line was -125/+135 or so.
    They jumped on it because the line was innacurate i suppose.
    All it means is that the actual line is more sharp.
    New-Jersey will win, i just paid too much for my action.
