Hockey betting for the most part is rarely public

It is the least bet sport at a sportsbook

Don't over think this. (-130) @5Dimes. This line should jump to (-150) much as the Ducks line did, but the New York public $ should keep it a little more stable. The Lightning have been far and away the better team this series. Unless Bishop shits the bed, and/or the Lightning take a ton of stupid penalties, they close this out at home. Rangers will play crazy desperate, but so will the Lightning. Nobody wants a Game 7 in MSG. Love the way the Lightning move the puck around. Their penalty kill was epic last game as well. They stayed grounded when the MSG crowd was going nuts with power play after power play in the 1st period. Stamkos came out of hiding...bad news for the Ranger faithful.

Check out the puck movement on these two goals from Game 5.

You guys haven't been watching the playoffs this year?

Rangers take this game, maybe in OT but they will take it

**ACoochy** · 05-26-15, 12:49 PM

Lightnings complacency will ensure a game 7.

Ask Sherry. I taught her how in the DR pool.

The Rangers are a puck off Dominic Moore's ass from golfing today. Fairly easy to see who the better team is.

Name me 1 game in past 2 series where they have taken the ascendency after gaining a lead in the series?

Sport is 99% psychology and when you dont have as much to play for it shows...

You mean the 2 series they won? Can't get much more ascendent than that.

You actually think, with a chance to close out the series and not have to play a game 7 on the road (sound familiar Montreal?), that complacency will be a problem? How about no.

So the best away team in the league is simply going to give it up to a team thats proven to be non elite when having chances to put teams away?

How about you don't know until after the final siren?

Amateur hour here at sbr once again

A lot. However, I don't want to go into specifics as MmaChicka checks the forum once in awhile.

Here's what I know.
Lundquist will be great tonight.
Rangers will be playing desperate.
In Lundquists time in NY he is 14-3 when facing elimination in the postseason.
Game will come down to the Rangers staying out of the penalty box and convering on their scoring chances. I think Tampas defense had more blocked shots than Bishop himself actually had, rangers know this and will adjust. Should be a great game either way, been a real fun series to watch

Who said anything about "giving it up"? You said the Lightning would lose because they'd be complacent. If they lose it will be for any number of reasons but complacency. As already stated they have plenty to play for.

Regarding best away team in the league, well they're playing the best home team in the league, the highest scoring team in the league, a team that is 6-2 against them this year, a team that owns Lundqvist like no other, a team that just beat them at their own defensive game (at their place), so yeah, this amateur likes his chances.

**nyplayer33** · 05-26-15, 01:55 PM

why should the line jump??/ NYR and tampa are pretty dead even..i think nyr make it go 7..they have better goalie.

**nyplayer33** · 05-26-15, 01:56 PM

The issue with this crap sport is there is no room out there for talent to shine. Watching 5 on 5 is a waste..takes a fluke goal to score.

Johnny Toews and the Hawks were down by 2 with 2 minutes left and he nets in 2 with the goalie pulled to force OT.. YA OKAY BUD.

EL Nino everybody is tailng you here so this better win or face repercussions

I hear you but TB know they still have a chance if they drop this and its that that will ensure they play at 98% and not to full capacity.

Psychology is THE NUMBER 1 factor in sports gambling but hey, if im wrong then il be happy to admit you were correct this time.

Pattern would suggest Anaheim has a better chance at closing out game 6 as they are proven closers (granted their schedule up until this round was not as strong)...GL

**a4u2fear** · 05-26-15, 04:05 PM

el nino is spot on.

Lundqvist will be good to great tonight, but Lightning still win

TB + under.

Anaheim gets cup in 5

**DwightShrute** · 05-26-15, 04:24 PM

Tampa and the over
