What do you think of EDM winning for the first time since who knows when? SJS is on a B2B and I think they have their backup goalie tomorrow.

Got burnt on sharks last night so maybe can make it back today. Oilers have to get out of their slump soon and tonight could be it

[cotes17]

Good start to the day but still ended up losing at the end

3-4-1 -$117

NFL

Giants -1.5 -110 $110 to win $100
Dolphins -3 -108 $108 to win $100
Lions -10 -110 $110 to win $100
Rams -3 +106 $100 to win $106

[cotes17]

Not sure if you're an nfl expert, but what do you think about taking a stab at Philly +590 to win the NFC?
If they win tomorrow vs Seahawks (which will be tough) and beat Cowboys at home, they will win the division and have home field, and if they win, go to GB.
If they make it that far, would hedge with GB ML to ensure a profit...that may be like -300 though.

I think Philly is a good team and they definately have a shot at the NFC. I will be going with them to win the game today at home against the Seahawks. Then they have Dallas who they've beat already once and I think will easily win again then hedging sound like a good plan to me. Unless you balls it out and hope they take it but I think they have a shot no doubt about it

What you think of ANA today?? I actually like WIN, but line is going the opposite way. Any thoughts??

[cotes17]

Eagles ml +108 $150 to win $162

I went with Ducks, they play well on the road.

Good call, Mick.

[mickjam42]

Tighter than it should have been, but they pulled it out all the same.

Like Nucks, but juice is too high and -1 is not solid enough for my liking.

Also wondering if this is a good spot for Oilers to finally win. Stalock likely starting for Sharks, he hasn't played in a month.

[cotes17]

Sorry guys been busy today. Nice call on the ducks earlier. Had enough in NFL so didn't end up doing nhl. Like the shot at the oilers tonight. No real capping for me on that game, oilers plain suck, just going in a hunch that they'll break out of the slump at home

Adding

NFL
Patriots -3.5 -103 $206 to win $200

NHL
Oilers ml +131 $100 to win $132

[eddycash]

damn was leaning chargers but now i dunno

[mickjam42]

Awesome end to the day. Pats D is just overwhelming.

Finally Oilers put one in the bank. I had been leaning Under as well, but didn't want to get greedy.

Very happy I shied away from Canucks.

I didn't go with the Future bet on Eagles...thankfully...now not sure if even +900 would be worth a shot. They likely have to play at Seahawks and Packers and I don't see them beating Seahawks let alone both of them.Tonight I have a +370 parlay with last leg on Packers to win.Was thinking about Falcons +500, but do they really have a shot to win?I am leaning more to +10 at +133...gives me a shot to win both.What would you do in my spot?I have never had a parlay shot of better than +250 before, so it's kinda big.

[RollinDo]

Tonught it's juicy, but seriously considering Panthers TT (U 2.5) with Brodeur.
Will be doing a 3 - game chase with opponents TT Under with Blues at home.

Personally I will be taking the Falcons tonight. I think they will show up and prove the critics why thy are in first in their division. Hard to say if they can somehow get a win out of it but I do think they'll keep it close enoug to cover the spread. That's just my opinion but if I were you, I'd hedge and guarentee myself some money. I did a 6 team teaser yesterday for fun and needed San fran out of all teams to beat Oakland by 2.5 and they didn't. I'm pissed at myself for not hedging but I was confident that 49ers could win so I didnt. Learnt from my mistake which is why there's nothing wrong with cutting you winnings down to guarentee something. But then again it's gambling so if you confident like I was, let it ride out and see what happens lol GL though

Liking the Devils tonight with staal being out for canes. Devils hurt with injuries too but it's carolina... Think that should take it. I know pens are hurt bad by injuries but how can you not take them at +$. All you need is either Malkin or Crosby to have a game which they both are capable of doing on any night

[RollinDo]

Thanks Cotes!
With Falcons at +142 for 10 points, think I'll wager the same amount I bet for the parlay to ensure at least some winning.
If worse comes to worse in 4th Quarter and GB losing by 7 or less, I can live bet Falcons ML and if that loses, will still come out nice.

Can't go wrong with making something that's forsure. Better than losing it all

Up over 3 G'$ !!
Cote, you are this site'sbest kept secret.
The oilers? What a call

Keep Rollin.

I like pens & Atlanta, devils have cost a couple of bets this year, but this might be a good spot for them, especially after the caps game!

Thanks buddy! I'll do my best to keep Rollin

Had a hunch in the oilers and hope my hunch is right with the injury filled Devils lineup. Really temped to put a smaller bet on Falcons ml at +590

[DigBick86]

Is Cammalieri,Elias and larsson playing tonight?

[JKosack7]

I gotta ask where your confidence in the Falcons comes from?

[mickjam42]

Pens missing Hornqvist, LeTang, Wilson, and Kunitz.

Not feeling this game. Where do you get your vibe for Pens?

[cotes17]

Just think Falcons will be playing hard to maintain their top spot in their division. With The saints losing, they will try and prove people wrong that they belong in the playoffs and what better way then to keep it close with a good packers team

[cotes17]

Is Cammalieri,Elias and larsson playing tonight?

From what I'm seeing, non are. Looking for jagr Or Ryder to come out. Staal out for canes which hurts big

[cotes17]

Still been keeping up the pace with them out. Crosby and Malkin can get it done

[DigBick86]

Im staying away then couldent resist the over in Rangers-Pits got 2.43 think it will go under but Lundqvist hasent been good last games and pens must start to score not like they lack oportunities

[cotes17]

Apparently canes did play staal tonight, he wasn't supoose to suit up. Devils still ahead 2-1, hope they can hold on

Wow what a third period for you lol nice call on the over

[RollinDo]

Just had one of those rare nights where everything came together...hit my +375 parlay and won my hedge of Falcons +10 at plus $...sprinkled a tiny bit on Falcons ML too, but no harm done...got it back with Panthers TT Under 2.5
Had been a rough month and a half, but got pretty much all my losses back from that time.
Nice call on Atlanta bud, and appreciate the guidance!

[Vreston]

Hi Cotes!

I stumbled on your thread after deciding to start coming back here to SBR. I stopped coming in for about a year because there was too much trash talk and a lot of the better cappers I knew either got kicked out or stopped posting. I didn't have anyone to interact with on a regular basis.
Obviously you're into hockey mostly, which I don't know that much about, and the NFL with some basketball judging from the few pages I've read.
You seem to be a class act and I the fact that you keep an updated YTD record tells me a lot.
Is hockey your strongest sport?

Take care and keep up the great work.

[mickjam42]

Nice night. Could have been a sweep, if Fleury had played a stronger game.

What about Klein getting part of his ear ripped off, then coming back and scoring a goal? Baseball players stub a toe and miss one week. Hoop players not far behind. Hockey players are a tough bunch, no two ways about it.
