Looking at hockey now...went 3-0 on the ice last night w/ columbus -1.5(+230), Montreal +110 and S.Jose -115. Prob blew my load on the ice there but looking now

[Huckleberry Pig]

got some interesting trends on B2B's today, working on write-ups

[Huckleberry Pig]

4 teams on B2B's tonight - Canes, Coyotes, Panthers, and Jets.

Hurricanes are at home taking on the Kings coming off a 3-2 win at Washington. Hurricanes were 5-4 last year in B2B's, not bad. However, they lost all three B2B games that they had at home. However, over the last two years, teams coming off a road win and playing at home have won the home game 59% of the time. So the stats contradict each other a bit.

I am gonna go Canes here at +$ though. They don't have to travel very far after last nights game while the Kings have had to travel cross country on one days rest. Hurricanes have been playing well and I'll go with what that 59% home winning trend on the spreadsheet. Liking Canes ML at +115.

[sweep]

only thing I see is Calgary -110, here's a little write up on my Cinncy play tonight. I hate playing big favs but highly confident in this one:

<!-- title / author block -->4-Unit Cannon shot: Cinncy -20.5

sweep

[Huckleberry Pig]

Next up, Coyotes will be playing the Flyers after coming off a Road W. Spreadsheet shows that over the last two years, teams coming off a Road W and playing on the road again the next night will lose that game 65% of the time, one of the stronger trends of the spreadsheet. Only thing that worries me is I don't have a lot of faith in the Flyers. The Flyers have had trouble scoring but have been playing good D. Coyotes have had trouble keeping pucks out of the net so I have to lean Flyers tonight. Prob in regulation since the ML is a bit juicy.

Also, out of the 8 B2B games the Coyotes played last season, 6 went Over 5.5 goals. Looking at the O5.5 at +100.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Third game you have the Florida Panthers taking on the Penguins at home coming off a road loss. This is probably the strongest play tonight. Panthers were 1-6 last year in B2B's. 1-2 at home. Of those 6 losses, 4 came by 2 goals or more, granted of the two that didn't were at home. I did find it surprising that all 7 games stayed under 5.5. I really like Penguins in regulation here. Stats say to play the under but 3 of the Panthers 4 games have gone over this season and they've allowed 7 gals twice.

Also, teams coming off a road L and playing at home the next game lose the home game 57% of the time (over last two years). Not extremely strong, but not something that should be written off either.

Like Penguins -.5 in reg (-120) and Panthers TT U2.5 for (-120) as well.

[Huckleberry Pig]

Lastly we have the Jets at home vs the stars. I may leave this one alone just because I like all the plays above more. Same situation as the Panthers, Jets are at home coming off a road loss. 57% loss rate over the last two years for that situation. Only thing is I have no confidence putting $ on the stars. For those interested, Jets were 3-5 last year in B2Bs. Not too bad, but not good. 6 of their 8 did go Over 5.5 so if there is a play at all, that may be it.

For now, not touching this one.

B2B home teams are 0-3 so far this year, so if you say 59%, the question is.... when to begin the tail

And as you know 3 of the 4 B2Bs are at home today

Jake Zatkoff getting his NHL Debut in net for the Penguins tonight.. That will affect the trend against FLA won't it?
