    Hockey guys...
    Any reason why the books keep giving MN Wild good value? Have been going small with them for a while and have wanted to go larger, but limit my hockey wager amount to action only amounts as it's usually one of my worst sports.

    Is it just me, or have the lines been right? I mean, they're getting darn near +money at home last week.

      I guess, when they give money, take money.

          Minnesota is over achieving. I am not saying they are a bad team because obviously they are not. Take a look at the overall total of goals. They are +9 against opponents. They have won a lot of games this year by single goals. There is most definitely value is fading them on the PL. This is also to be said about Dallas. Dallas leading their division with a goal differential of -3. This has a lot to do with Leightonen being out. If you want to compare, look at Boston, Detroit, Pittsburgh, the legit elitist in the NHL. Their differential is much greater...

          Boston +34
          Detroit +19
          Pittsburgh +19
          Rangers +18


          Look for great value this year with a team like Florida or Edmonton. Fading Philly, Vancouver, can be profitable as well. We're starting to get to that point where the cream rises to the top. Be careful and bet smart.

              Red hot Minnesota team at +170 tonight.

              Might throw my BTP free play on the Wild tonight.

              Talk me out of it!

                not a strong team, nobody is taking them seriously.

                Just like how Edmonton was leading the western conference a few weeks ago, everyone knew that wouldn't last long.

                  Completely understand but they've made me a nice chunk as of late and they keep getting these lines.

                    The Sharks have won the last 3 meetings between these two teams. This is the 4th straight meeting between these two that is being played in San Jose. Its not often that you see two teams play each other 4 times in a row all in the same venue. My guess is the books are overvaluing the Wild @ +170 tonight to get the public to hammer them at that price because of their success this year. But I personally think its a trap but we've all been wrong before. That's just my 2 cents, good luck with whatever you decide to wager.

                      NHL handicappers are smarter than you are, just assume that to be true while trying to make plays.

                        Agree, trust me, I'm probably one of the worst NHL handicappers ever.

                        I'll just stay away. Thanks for the info guys.

                          Minny won't get the respect they deserve until they make the playoffs and the public starts to take notice. That team has been great to cash in on in the right spots for a couple years now. Hope they miss again so I can keep making money on them.

                            Nice value on Minnesota definetely. I'm expecting a score like 3-2..May go OT.

                              I just figured the line should be around +150.

                                  Completely different team with mike Yeo coaching. They aren't being babied by Todd Richards anymore. In his 1 year coaching in the AHL he turned the last place aeros into a #1 team. This team is filled with rookies and young players. It isn't a coincidence that they are playing much better than people think they should

                                    Wild look good. Value was definitely on Wild +170 IMO.
