1-1-1 last night with the tips. Graeme is off to New Orleans for Wrestlemania so I’ll be handling the tips for the next while.
A win, a loss and a push is a better night then either 1-2 or 0-3. Our win came when the Leafs beat the best team the NHL right now, the Boston Bruins, 4-3 in OT and this was an amazing game to watch from start to finish. Will be interesting to see how the Leafs finish the season and they need things to fall perfectly into place for them to move on. Our push came with the Under 5 bet in the Blackhawks vs Wild game when it ended 3-2 Hawks in a shootout. The loss on the night came from the Jackets – Flyers game. We bet Over 5.5 and it ended 2-0 Jackets.
7 games tonight with some great story lines taking place. The Hawks take on the Jackets with the Jackets in desperate need of points as they fight for the playoffs. Datsyuk returns tonight against the Sabres, Montreal vs Ottawa in what promises to be a good game as it is anytime these two play. Capitals vs the Devils with both teams close but still on the outside looking in for the playoffs.
And as always if you are submitting a team at FanDuel then be sure to get the team in as early as possible. It is so much fun and although we are getting mixed results we are improving as we work on our methods. But overall it’s a blast!
Predators vs Ducks: Ducks in regulation
I normally would be betting the Ducks -1.5 but I did the other day against the Jets and although they did win they were down one point 4-0
Let’s take the safer bet here with the powerhouse Ducks to win the game in regulation and sweep the season series 3-0
Ducks in regulation for 1.76 odds at Bovada for Americans and http://www.Bet365.com for everyone else.
Sabres vs Red Wings: Wings -1.5
3rd of 4 between these two teams with the Wings winning the first two.
Now that Detroit is still fighting for the playoffs you know they will be looking at this game as a perfect opportunity to pick up 2 points.
Plus Datsyuk returns after missing 16 games due to a leg injury. Add in Gus Nyquist is on fire and the Sabres are completely banged up and this looks like a blowout in the making.
Bet the Red Wings -1.5 at Bovada for Americans and http://www.Bet365.com for everyone else. for 2.00 odds
Value Bet: Oilers win
Actually two tips on this game we are also going with the Over 5.5.
The Coyotes are a much better team then the Oilers but the Oilers are unpredictable. They are on a three game losing streak after losing to the Rangers, Sharks and Ducks.
Obviously the safe bet is to take the Coyotes but I think the Oilers can and will take this one.
This is the fifth and final game of the season series between these two with the Coyotes winning the first four. 5-4, 6-2, 4-3 and 4-3. So with all of the previous four going over we gotta like that trend to continue.
You can place both bets athttp://www.5Dimes.eu for Americans(Need to register to see lines) and and http://www.Bet365.com for everyone else.. The money line win for the oilers is 2.76 and the Over 5.5 is 2.10
Whats up with that over/under line for Phx vs Edm. O/U – 2.10/1.77?? With the way the past 4 games have gone plus the majority picks are to the over, you’d think the over would be the worse of the odds. Ill take it though, Over all the way, lets just hope the lines makers don’t know something we all don’t.
Ducks. Ye, sure. 😀 😀
