I lean Sabres also in that game against Toronto but I think the line should be a little lower than it is, at -125 to -130 i have to pass.

As far as the Col/Ott over 5.5, that game is tricky. I have no doubt that Ottawa will be able to put up 3 or 4 goals but the problem is that I don't know that Colorado will be able to do much against Ottawa. Auld looks like he is getting the start and he is playing so well right now, especially on the road. They may be able to slip a couple past him though after he came off a shutout last night and his defensemen might be a bit tired in the back end of a B2B.

Either way, GL and hope these cash for you!

You are right on the over; I'm definitely counting on Auld to come back down to earth. If he stands on his head again, obviously I'm going to be sweating it late.

But I'm seeing a 4 - 3, 4 - 2 type final here, so we'll see

.

I don't mind the chalk on Buffalo as I still think there is plenty of value there; but laying chalk on the road is never fun, so I don't blame you for staying away.

Good luck on your plays today

Good vid Dave.

You should make a video tour of your new surroundings.

fiveteamer · 02-17-09, 03:43 PM

Dave, if you were gambling before, you really should not be gambling now that you have steady income.

do not gamble.

NFL jerseys don't work as well for hockey videos

I do need some rest... very stressed out that I have to move all my stuff AGAIN into a new apartment this weekend. But hopefully I will be settled in soon enough.

I'll eventually need to get a new camera.

The one I have now is just a webcam... so I have to carry my laptop around with my if I want to move with it.

Tour would be fun though, maybe someday

AMBlai01 · 02-17-09, 05:33 PM

I am sure they have a camera in the SBR office they can let you borrow to bring home and give a tour......

jjgold · 02-17-09, 06:00 PM

Looks like Dave thinned out his rug, looks sharp

Might play these two in a small parlay

VegasDave · 02-17-09, 06:13 PM

Good luck if you do JJ!

VegasDave · 02-17-09, 11:55 PM

What an annoying way to lose on the OVER...

4 goals scored with 15 minutes to go in the 2nd period... and then no more goals for 35 minutes. No penalties in the 3rd period. Very frustrating

pat venditto · 02-17-09, 11:56 PM

didn't make it dave. certainly next time though you will

flyingillini · 02-17-09, 11:58 PM

Deep down I bet BBD wants to beat down VD.

pico · 02-17-09, 11:59 PM

1-1. not bad for a beginner. keep the videos coming

Not a beginner per se, but its been about 3 years since I've taken a serious stab at handicapping hockey. Hopefully I can get back into the swing of things sooner than later. Thanks for watching

pat venditto · 02-18-09, 12:04 AM

i don't understand why you're even debating a 1-1 its a 2 game sample size.

Who is debating?

Not me. Like you said, it is only 2 games

Panic · 02-18-09, 12:10 AM

VD, I certainly hope you are watching JLH on the tonight show.

I was overjoyed when I saw that in the other thread, thanks for the heads up. I certainly will be.

Shortstop · 02-18-09, 02:56 AM

I don't have time to watch videos, what did he pick and what were the results?

Well the only picks I've made public really are my football picks.

Hockey is actually my favorite sport, and baseball is my most knowledgeable. When I had the money to bet a few years back, I did pretty well on both these sports. But I am a bit out of practice.

Want to warm up and get back into the swing of things in time for the playoffs.

As for basketball? That I don't cap, but I'll have to try sooner or later

Buffalo ML (-125) Win
Ottawa/Colorado OVER 5.5 (-115) Loss

1 - 1 - 0 (-0.15 Units)

Dave,

Good video, BUT you failed to mention that Toronto also announced yesterday afternoon that they were starting that SIEVE Justin Pogge over Toskala.

Again good video Pal, but you need to start watching the goalie starts closely.

Good call... threw the video together quickly, should have been more thorough. Thanks for the advice
