    NHL series prices

    Been looking around

    Observations

    Boston beats Carolina
    Washington has value (+300)
    TB looks like they will lose this series
    Rangers are underdogs and I don't think they should be
    Blues series line seems tilted towards Minnesota more then it should be

    Washington dropped from +320 to +280. Florida is overhyped and the presidents trophy is a curse. Caps can give them a series. Do they win? I dunno

    Hmmm Boston is not a good team with not a good goalie, Carolina probably sweeps them IMO

    I’m on the rangers for sure , can’t believe they’re underdogs

    Best goalie in the league

    Florida is not overhyped they are clearly better than Washington, Washington has no matchup advantages in this series, and the Capital also don't have a top level goalie either.

    The Capitals needed to make a move at the deadline for a goalie they didn't.

    Carolina gets exposed in the playoffs every year, their offense isn't good enough, they aren't sweeping anyone

    • Tampa Bay +108 [Tampa better in Goal. Bolts in 3 5]
    • Carolina -120 [Bruins better in goal but not enough. Canes in 7]
    • Minnesota -165 [Should be a pick em'. Wild on a mission. Minny in 7]
    • Edmonton -260 [too much McDavid. Oilers in 5]
    • New York -112 [Kreider and goaltending too much. NYR in 6]
    • Florida -355? [crazy price but Panthers are going to the finals. Fla in 6]
    • Colorado -575? [another loco line but is it? Avs in 6]
    • Calgary -300 [Best line in NHL and arguably the best goalie. Flames in 6]

      Best value clearly Tampa. They should be -120

    Tampa is a great pick. Back to back champs will give the leafs their 20th straight first round exit. I feel bad for Toronto. Brutal first round match up with the pressure they are under.


    Panthers and avs will both win in 5 or less.

    Rangers are a great play. Shesterkin is a beast and the rags had pitts number this year.

    Wild vs blues coin flip. Two of the hottest teams in the nhl. It’s a shame they drew each other.

    Bruins vs Canes. Lean bruins, but it’s a toss up series also.

    Flames -1.5 games looks good.

    LA Kings will either beat or take this series 7. Oilers D and goaltending will be exposed again. Can old Mike Smith continue to stand on his head? I doubt it

    Round 2

    Edmonton+170 vs Calgary -193
    Books don't like Mike Smith. They think Calgary escaped and can roll now.

    STL+329 vs Colorado-394. Blues might give them a few headaches but Colorado too much?

    Nyr+197 vs Carolina -225. Rangers d is so loose. They can't win vs Carolina playing like that.

    TB +130 vs Florida -146. Florida should win this but TB keeps finding ways.

    I like Edmonton +170. They are a better team. Calgary did not look good in Round 1, IMO. Good value on Oilers who got a strong test from LA Kings. That should make them better going forward.

    I feel the same way but you can say Calgary got the same test and Smith isn't good vs Dallas goalie.

    I agree fully with these 4.

    Starting to look like Gretzkys tic toc video predicting St Lou vs Carolina with Carolina winning the cup minus their 1 and 2 Goalies is looking quite possible. Not as big a stretch now.

    Yes, and Calgary definitely has the edge behind the bench. But Quick is way better than the Calgary goalie and Smith has played well in the playoffs before. Wasn't he in the Finals a few years back for somebody?

    Quick played great against Edmonton for sure. He was lights out in fact but he's not better than Markstrom who was unreal against Dallas but overshadowed by Oettinger who might have had one of the best performances in net in many years. Maybe ever.

    • Florida -165 [hate paying the juice but I picked them to go to the finals long time ago against the Flames. Gonna be a heck of a series. Could go either way of course as TB is the 2x defending champ. Panthers in 7]
    • Colorado -400 [do I think the Blues can beat the Avs? Anything is possible. The line should be -190. Colorado in 6]
    • New York +174 [Goaltending! Should be fun. NYR in 7]
    • Calgary -190 [the Battle of Alberta is back. Since Canada's team, the Canucks, failed to make it this year, there are 2 Canadian teams left. Calgary has more depth and better goaltending. Edmonton has the best player in the world. Flames in 6]



    good luck boys.

    I cant believe this florida team is even in the second round. They might be the worse playoff hockey team ever. I dont care what they did in the regular season, this team sucks at defense, the goalie is trash and they are slow as penetrate. Tampa has a bye week now to the next round. This team is going to three peat, all they do is win playoff hockey games.

    Yup. Florida is trash. Washington gave them the series. TB will win cup for sure. It's a lock.
