    Another two large NHL wagers for today.....

    Detroit and Philadelphia, over 5.5 at +110

    Philadelphia plays pond hockey, and Detroit (while they are a very disciplined team) have a lot of talent and a great power play. Philly averages over 7 goals per game total in their games played and Emery (their starting G) has given up almost 3 GPG and actually played quite well (ok, maybe not his save percentage, but in reality he gets peppered with some very good opportunities).

    Philly is no slouch on offense as well, and after a sluggish start (which always happens in Philly)they are putting up some numbers. Add to that that Detroit is starting Gustavsson, who despite giving up 2.63 GPG last year, still won 16 games....that means Detroit scores for this guy....and he gives up goals with a modest GAA of 2.63.

    I am seeing a 4-3 or 5-3 Detroit win here.

    Dallas Stars and NY Islanders, over 5.5 at -125

    This line just dropped from -130 to -125 at 5Dimes.

    Both of these teams are top heavy and generate a ton of scoring opportunities and have averaged close to 7 goals per game in games they have played this year.

    The Islanders are going to want to compete with the Stars 'stars' tonight, look for Tavares to company to press early and often, activating their new found offense from their rear guards. With Anders Lindback in net and Lehtonen on the bench, the Islanders will have an opportunity to put on a show.

    As for Dallas, they are another high powered team. With the addition of Jason Spezza, this PP unit will finish at the top of the league this year. At the start of the year everyone thought that Nichushkin would be the x-factor here....but people needed to focus on the Canadian kid that has an opportunity to become an elite talent in the league again. The Islanders are also playing their 'number 2 netminder' in Chad Johnson (no, not Ocho Cinco....he is in the CFL, not the NHL). Johnson has played ok hockey so far, winning his two starts....but neither start was against a team with this potent an offense.

    I am not going to guess who wins this game....it is literally a flip 'em in my opinion......but the final could range anywhere from 4-2 all the way up to a 6-4 kind of game.


    I laid $500 on both of these wagers along with 500 betpoints on each.


    GL,

    If playing this game the under is the play.

    St. Louis has 1 goal total in their last two games. Anti Raanta has given up a total of two games in his last two starts.

    Both of these teams are well coached, and play great system hockey. Both are starving for WINS, not goals. I looked long and heard at the under here....may still put in a smaller play.

    I thought the same....but I loved the better price, and if the public is on the under, that makes me even happier.

    There is zero chance the public is on the under. Hence, why it's strange. BookMaker and Heritage already moved it to 6.

    Maybe 5dimes took a couple of exceptionally large bets? I don't know either.....

    When I looked at it on 5dimes it read -130.....and then then I bet it I got one of those 'the line has moved since your wager, would you like to accept it?' messages (I can't remember exactly what it says obviously)....nonetheless, I was happy to take it.

    I haven't ever said I was going to quit gambling.....because I have never felt the need, and never been bust.

    This will continue throughout the NHL and NBA seasons.

    Lol....it depends. For my first year and a half I played $100 unit sizes here, average bet was $225.....last year I withdrew a pretty big chunk to do a few things (car and condo) and started with $50 unit size.

    I have built it back up a bit and supplemented things with a small infusion of my own capital along with capital from a buddy of mine.....this time of the NFL season can be killer, and the NHL and NBA are where I feel the most comfortable.

    right now I am playing $150 units and (aside from that one play the other night where I laid $1250) I will be playing 1-3 units at that size.

But whatever i wuldnt bite becuz i didnt know unit size and top many big guns going one can get hurtt. It looks like today someone culd lose 9% of their bankroll becuz i saw you had another big play.

    Like on twitter singh (got a dollarsign in front of singh) he sells pkays and gives out freeplays. He puts out a range of 1-5 star. Before he puts out a card. Im all about freeplays. And.post ..25. -1U. Let the.paid guys deal with bankroll busters or growers. Ie. Higher range 3-15u bets.

    Emery playing exceptionally well for Philly and the Flyers forgot they had a game tonight. Tough to cap when a team has 5 shots halfway through the game.

    Unreal. Maybe they are trying to rope-a-dope the Red Wings.

    I wish I could take some goals from the one game and use them in the other.

    It it looks like a break even night with Dallas and the Islanders already over 5.5.

    GL the rest of the way boys.
