why can't NJ win this? brodeur is solid, and all 4 devils lines are solid.

if you like LA, wait for the 1-1 split back to LA, then you get -125 range

[mathdotcom]

If it's about making money then you still don't want to hedge unless you feel the series price has value in it INDEPENDENT of your earlier bet.

So if you think Devils +150 has value then hedge, but otherwise don't.

[Coolcanuck79]

I would need +500 or better to hedge.

I could care less about $25 bucks.

if they go back to LA tied 1-1, LA will have home field advantage so the price will be much higher than -125.

How could it not?

Well it's either $0 vs. $550 if you don't hedge, or $250 vs. $425 if you lay $300 on the Devils +150. I agree that it's a matter of whether or not you feel like there is value in taking Jersey at that number, but guaranteed money is guaranteed money -- especially when it's that much off of $25.

[boeing power]

Forwards are even.

Kings advantage in net with quick.

Doughty is the x factor on defense in the series.

Kings in 6, but not confident enough to bet that price.

[Coolcanuck79]

I would consider $100 at +500 or better or else I will let it ride.

[Koldazzice]

Even if the kings win. I live my gambling life long term. If I can snag a +150 dog like NJ vs a 8 seed who just got hot I will bet the dog every time! GO devils!

[mcfugly]

but the devils get the advantage with goaltending

please stick to mlb

[LT Profits]

Why is everyone saying LA has the goaltending edge? Last time I checked, Broduer won 3 Stanley Cups. Did Quick even with a playoff GAME before this year?

I take it back, Quick won two games last year. But my point still stands.

Anyone that has watched hockey all year knows that quick is much better than Marty.

Broduer is 40 and has 3 cups but he has looked beatable all year and in the playoffs.

Quick has been incredible all year and is a finalist for the vezina.

Advantage : kings

And Marty just outplayed another Vezina finalist.

I'm a big fan of Marty and he has the experience to help his team win but Quick is the better goalie.

Quick is going to be nervous though.

Should be a great series and I think LA will win but it will be close and I don't blame anyone for taking the devils at + money.

[topgame85]

All I have to say is I have watched basically every devils game in the past 3 months (live with a devils fan and have center ice package) and a lot of the kings games. Both are great teams and earned their spots tooth and nail without question but the devils look like an experienced team that has overcome adversity in many games to strike back and take the win. As for Marty he does not have the "skill" he used to or that Quck does but he does have the experience and smarts and this may be his last go of it. He will play as well as he is capable of playing in this series I believe. Think he gets the edge on the fact he has been here and knows how to deal with and handle it not to mention he is still very solid.

If you think Brodeur is better than Quick ...

Game 6 vs Rangers was incredibly shaky in particular

Playing in the West and playing in the Atlantic division are worlds apart. No goalie should be even allowed to qualify for the Vezina playing in the West. The conference is a joke, every bum goalie that goes there gets inflated stats like mike smith and brian elliot.
Not even one good player in the whole conference, vrbata and ryder are the top guns. lol Just a joke.

Kings would be in last place in the Atlantic, not making the playofs, Quick would get shelled every other night. Put him on the Islanders and lets see he stats then.

Kings probably still win this series.....just the way these playoffs have gone.

[William Walters]

Love the East Coaster guys dropping coin on the Devils almost as much the NorCal guy piping in NOW about his high odds early season wager on the devils (same guy also says he's got -120 on the Kings ).

Kings have ASS HAMMERED the Nucks, Blues, and Coyotes. Not escaped....survived.....etc........ASS HAMMERED. The Kings are making history on the road during this playoff run. -170 is steep against a quality team with home ice.....no doubt! But, those talking about all the advantages the devils have over the Kings need to wake up.

[jetsjets1028]

kings are deffintely gunna knock out the devils ut maybe finally will lose an away game

[k13]

Whenever Kings/Quick played a decent team like Detroit/Pens/Boston they got spanked every time.

Must be nice to win a Stanley Cup and not play one good team along the way.

What a fukking retard. Last place....not a single good player.....but,........covering ass with "Kings probably still win".

Only at SBR

jealousy & ignorance

[King Mayan]

The only thing that makes people think east coast hockey is better, is the obnoxious fans..

Also,Marty is not the old marty, he lets shit goals go in now..... Im not saying kings will win, but devils did not play better teams than the kings..

Mayan these anti west coast hockey guys are an angry bunch at the moment. It's like we've not only crashed their party, but also are taking turns with their women while they are forced to sit and watch.

[thetrinity]

devils have an obvious experience edge, 170 is way too much a favorite, home ice doesnt matter and its still to high. my real question is how the **** is the 6 seed playing the 8 seed for the title, its time to get rid of the regular season.

[mathdotcom]

No LA homers in the thread please

West coast teams on average better and have been for a long time, but that's irrelevant here.

Kings are the better team but had an easier route to the final

[OTL]

-170 is a great price for the Kings, way less than the true odds IMO. The series price should be around -250.

Curse of the Flyers, last 3 winners have of Stanley Cup have defeated the Flyers int he playoffs.
