question about hockey totals

[ebbearsfb1]

tonight canucks/flames

under 5.5 is -125


but the over 2.5 for both teams teams
is juiced

canucks over 2.5 -135
flames over 2.5 -115

why is that ?

[numismatist]

Cause its more likely for one team to win 3-0 or 3-1, or 3-2.

hard question to answer. i cant get a grip on nhl team totals but i would venture to say that one of those teams will score more than 2.5 .

[hawley]

I have a question?


Why does anyone bet NHL totals? they seem impossible.

NHl is kinda like MLB LB

gotcha... yea i guess a 3-2 game is in store or something


i'll take the under and pray lol

[ebbearsfb1]

then again maybe taking both team totals under would be smarter... who knows i will watch and find out...

probably be a 5-4 game

they arent impossible but the juice on unders is retarded and not worth it.

in what way MIKE?

[70kgman]

Overtime cant turn a win on a 5.5 total into a loss, so essentially the 5.5 is a regulation only wager. But OT will help a team go from 2 to 3 goals in a 2-2 game.

[VegasInsider]

The NHL average for goals per game is around 2.75 per team...that being said and with overtime/shootout rules, someone has to get to three. You'll only see totals of 5 with very very good goalie matchups or two defensive teams. Totals of 6 are seen very rarely nowadays...so the only recourse is to adjust juice.

actually that was another question i had vegas

is there ever a 6.5

or 4.5 for totals

or just juiced adjusted

obviously i know the olympics is different but i remember seeing totals like 7 or 8 or lower like 4.5 depends on who is playing

[ebbearsfb1]

lol canucks 3-0 first period
