You going to the game? Are playoff tickets crazy expensive up there?

I heard from multiple sources they were having troubles selling it out today and dropped the remaining tickets to half price. Craziness.

As cheap as all hell. I gave mine to a couple of London Drugs managers......they will owe me until the end of time. I give about half of mine away.

Seriously though, they are going for less than face value. Canucks fans suck....if they don't think they will win easily they don't bother paying da man his money.....

Unreal. Maybe they heard Luongo was starting

Nabokov ran...Leafs look lost.

I am going to seriously consider Leafs and Isles +1.5 in game 2....may be able to squeeze something decent out of TO and the isles +1.5 probably will end up at +175 or something crazy, lol.

great day yesterday! you make it look too easy at times!

5/2

April Breakdown (Running YTD)

20-24 -11.04u (YTD: 103-84-2 +29.02u) 55.08%

3u plays: 2-3 -3.78u (YTD: 13-5 +16.43u)
2u plays: 8-11 -7.76u (YTD: 28-25 -1.24u)
1u plays: 10-10 +0.50u (YTD: 60-50-2 +12.31u)

Puck Line plays: 1-0 +1.55u (YTD: 9-3 +11.17u)
Totals O/U: 3-0 +4.55u (YTD: 11-5-2 +8.14u)
Regulation plays: 4-12 -16.31u (YTD: 25-27 -5.63u)
Grand Salami: 0-0 +0.00u (YTD: 3-3 -3.31u)
Team to Score 1st: 0-1 -2.00u (YTD: 0-3 -3.00u)
Team Total: 0-1 -2.00u (YTD: 0-1 -2.00u)

As I mentioned at the end of the regular season, the final stretch killed me. Instead of looking for +EV bets and picking my spots, I forced 2u plays and chased a bad run. The positives: I didn't lose a puck line bet or a game total bet. The problem, of the 44 bets I made in April, I only made 4 of those. Regulation bets killed me as well this month. I will have to use those more sparingly in the future as I finished in the red in that category YTD. I didn't go back and look, but I know in April there were a lot more times were my regulation bet would have cashed on the money line in OT/SO. Props are what I've always found them to be, something to sweat during a boring game. Had I not spewed all those 2u plays down the last week or so, I'd have finished in the black in all my 1,2, and 3u plays. Overall, it was a pretty positive NHL season.
Being more selective in the playoffs. Best of luck on your wagers, boys.

I got 9064 Montreal Canadiens +158 due to the early lead Senators. If you still like your original line, might be a good time to re-enforce it.

Anderson is standing on his head! Both Canadiens and Caps dominating and losing. Fluke goal by the Rangers. They look terrible.

Wow. Serious blood there. First time I seen the paramedics on the ice like that. Hope he is or gets ok.

That was just a brutal hit

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 07:45 PM

Yeah, I think he cut himself when he face planted on the ice. Wasn't interference, but still a gamer for targeting the head. Glancing blow, but looked like a concussion to me. That guy will get suspended.

indeed! But no more goals haha.

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 08:21 PM

Price lets in an extremely weak goal.

**DennisGreen** · 05-02-13, 08:23 PM

Price is rattled now

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 08:24 PM

Damn, sniper goal. Congrats Sens backers.

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 08:26 PM

Canadiens might lose with 55+ shots on goal

. I bet they wish they put one away on that 5-3.

Canadians had 27 shots on goal in the 2nd period along

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 08:48 PM

Oh well, I won some SBR pts. on the Sens at +135 and they needed to steal a game to cash my series bet and my DG pool. Price could go all Luongo here after a game like tonight. With a 2nd period like the Canadiens had, there is no way the Sens should have been in this game.

**El Nino** · 05-02-13, 09:23 PM

No blood on the day. 1-1 Off to the bar to watch the night games.

Careful, Sens will win this series in 6 games!

FYI -

Pacioretty, Gionta and Eller out for the Habs tonight.

**Dollars2Donuts** · 05-03-13, 03:23 PM

That's funny, it's a pass game for me tonight. With the Habs injuries and the way Anderson is playing, I can't make a play. If I had to, I'd take the +$.

BOL Donuter!
