    any else think there is great value in the Caps series price at +333??

    every game has been so close and the Rangers stepped in shit and got a miracle last game. I fully expect Washington to come out guns blazing tonight. if they can tie series up 3-3 and head back for a game 7, sitting on +333 is great value.

    Rangers have never lost a Game 7 at home. EVER.

    Also this series is done. The last game will cripple the Caps.

    Look to the World Series as an example. Texas had the series wrapped up, in the bag. They lost game 6 in a shocking and improbable fashion. They sat on that, thought about it, dwelled on it until game 7. Were not a factor.

    Caps had this series in the bag, it was all but over, now they lose in a shocking and improbable fashion. There is no way to overcome this.

    Mentally the Caps have already lost their season.

    i think hockey is a different animal though, if the caps can manage to get some energy from the crowd and out play the rangers the first period. well #1 its going to be very tough for the rangers to match the Caps intensity the first 10 mins. if the Caps can get the first goal, its a whole new ball game and the last game goes completely out the window. but the longer the Caps go without a goal or NY scores first, the longer that hang over effect will loom.

    I think Caps win tonight off of the energy.....They seem like a team that grinds it out no matter the circumstances

    Then in game 7 it will be really tough, but anything can happen in a game 7

    Zoo, that number caught my eye last night. If the Caps win tonight, that ticket with the +333 in your hand would be sweet. Unless it's a small play, you would have no opportunity to hedge in game 7. The Rangers will most likely be in the area of -150 to -160 in the Garden.

    It would suck to win tonight and then lose Sunday. I like the Caps tonight a lot. No team has won two in a row in this series. Must admit that the Caps were 7 seconds away from doing that, but, I see the Caps having a real tough time beating the Rangers in the Garden. (assuming of course they win game 6)

    If the series does extend to 7 , making the plus +333 valid, then you are counting on the Caps to win tonight. Ask yourself the old saying is a Bird in the hand worth two in the bush?

    If you like the odds of the Caps winning the series, I'd make a play on the caps tonight. I would then risk only a portion of those winnings again on the Caps as proverbial underdogs and if you go 1-1 still net out positive. If you go 2-0 , don't worry about woulda, coulda and shouda and be happy with the positive results. Gambling is a marathon and the books love to grind down your roll with these long shots. I'm on the Caps tonight and hope I have an opportunity to evaluate another play in gm7 . Gl with your choice.

    Rolling the money lines should get you more than +333

    100 turns into 200 after tonight, then at +150 200 turns into 500

    So you get +400 that way, why would you take +333

    I agree with Milwaukee Mike. I originally saw the +333 on the Caps series price and thought it looked good. But then I did the math on a rolling ML bet and it actually pays close to +400ish. So you'd be better off taking the Caps on the ML tonight and then rolling the money into the Caps in Game 7 (getting probably +140 to +150). BOL to whatever you decide.

    Lot of times Game 7's are juiced higher than the previous home games.

    Just saw this thread now and betting Caps at +333 would have been a dumb bet. Why?

    $100 would win $333 if they win the series.

    Bet tonights ML and game 7 ML

    $100 would win $185 if you bet ML tonight. Bet ML game 7 ~ +100 you would win $370 total if you risked the $185.

    Game 7 ML will be around +145. Parlay comes out to +358.

    i get you MM two different bets and risk the extra winnings on the 2nd bet so you would actually get more value then 1 bet at +333

    Caps +1300 to win the cup was the bet I made before the game for a half unit.

    considering they will probably be underdogs in the next 2 series, that should've been around +1600. but you can expect some juice so that's not too awful imho.

    They won't be very big dogs in any of those series. Probably close to a pk'em vs PHX.

    Unfortunately they'll lose Game 7.

    IF they advance there is no way they would be a dog to the Devils. nor would they be a dog to Phoenix. both Phoenix and LA it would be around a PK or -120 to either side.

    I think the Devils would be favored over Washington.

    LA would be favored.

    I really think they have the Rangers and Lundquist # right now. they controlled game 5 at the garden and Rangers just got a fluke miracle win. all the pressure is on the Rangers now.

    I have Caps 40-1, they are drawing dead to a one outer....at least they have a chance unlike the NBA.
