    Once hockey starts 95% of my action is on pucks.

    The hockey season can't start soon enough, I've had it with football.

    I've never really bet on individual hockey games. Dumb question for those who do: how do you know which goalie is starting? Is this listed somewhere? Can you bet on it the same as starting pitchers in baseball, where you can take action or only with a particular goaltender? Or is this even something to worry about?

    Goalies aren't "listed" the way pitchers are, usually teams have a number 1 goaltender that starts the majority of games, when teams play back to back games (two nights in a row) you'll often find both goaltender playing one game each.

    You cannot bet action for a specific goalie starting.

    Usually, teams start their backup goalie against "weaker" teams, this is not 100% certain, but generally speaking it is true.

    I believe LT has a link that showed starting goalies on gameday.

    One of the advantages of being in Canada is the nonstop hockey info available on radio, TV, internet and newspaper, hockey coverage is 24/7 here in Toronto once the season starts, even in the summer there is lots of hockey news.

    Thanks betplom. Just afraid of getting what seems like a good number on a game, then finding out later that their crappy backup was starting and that's why the odds were so good. I guess once you get into it you get a feel for it and just have to be careful of that.

    85% of book action comes from Canadians, USA action is extremely low at books.

    Love hockey (huge fan) and have had success with it in the past!

    So many people on the board that cover it I won't be needed that much, but I'll let you know when a must play comes along, especially involving the Western Conference.

    They may not be Listed in the sportsbook like a pitching Matchup, but theyre listed Every day for sure! We know whos in net when the games starts, unless an Injury or a coach wants to play games? The starting goalies are listed at about 16 sites

    Hockeyinformer.com is another decent site, although last year i wasnt thrilled with him, guy normally does ok

    But I know i dont make a bet unless i Know for a fact whos between the pipes

    Anyway, i also cant wait for the new season, ive gotten to see 7 pre season games so far, so im trying to see what shape the teams are taking, As How I CAP?

    I see the season as a story!

    Each team has a story to tell about how their season is going , in the recent past, in the NOW, and how it will go forward!
    So i try to see the story before it unfolds so we can get paid knowing how the start, middle and ending are revealing themselves!

    Ahh Ill be here to post NHL this year, youll see what i do!

    anyone that comes in any thread and says he is good and gives out picks everyday, and tells everyone he knows his stuff and we should follow him, IS NOT A REAL GOOD CAPPER. they are only insecure and wante re assurance from everyone cause it makes them feel good..


    The real good cappers are the quiet ones who keep it to themselves.. and don't give out more than 2 picks a year..

    magica,

    sorry buddy, but i wasn't directing it at you.. you know those types that post like 3 to 8 picks everyday, and say i am amazing, my record is so and so.. those attention seekers.. those are the squares who need some self worth..

    wouldn't you think that the sharp cappers who make a great living betting NHL, are the ones that have no time to come to a forum and post all their picks, cause they are too busy handicapping, shopping, calling up bets, placing bets on net.. etc..

    Oh hey no problem mang, im not trying to come here and say "Look at me, im the man" ok

    Didnt mean to come off as arrogant!

    I just meant that Ill be here to help this year, i have a private forum im trying to not involve here, as i dont want to invite or disrespect the site by promo-ing myself or my forum

    Ive been posting NHL picks for 6 years with 3 Canadians, I mean when you surround yourself with Canadians who watch and know Hockey because its in their veins? Then throw in that i watch More games than Anyone here, Telling ya, My woman says "Want to go to Olive Garden tonight?" Um honey? I got a game on, go get me breadsticks and tell me how it went! LOL

    Im a sports Feind, im only trying to say that when i Get MoR here? my Good friend for 6 years who Admins my forum with me? then you have us both here?
    Im just trying to let you know that you will have 2 people here that know their Stuff, because thats what we do!

    Ill be here to help, hows that!

    Obviously proving it to you guys at this forum? Working on that!

    So work with me here! lol Im only telling you facts, i pull no punches with anyone and am ridiculously Honest! Harsh sometimes? Ahh man, like that guy did last night taking All 7 NHL overs in pre season because of a Blog that got him thinking?
    I dont follow anyones Blogs or picks or anything, i personally scout the teams by watching them and listening and learning, and i allready mentioned the how i see capping as a story !

    Hey ill be here ok, YOU guys can determine who deserves what when we all post each day!

    Good luck to all for sure!

    I can sum this thread up very easy, are there guys that know hockey?? Of course and do hold their own but no one makes a living off it. Boys no one would work if a guy gave out picks and you just bet them but more importantly if a guy does really well he ain't giving his picks out because he just bets himself and would be rich.

    Anyone charging for picks is a 200% fraud because if they were so good they would be just betting their own plays.
