    Someone explain hockey to me

    I dont know as much about hockey as i do other sports but i have taken a interest purely for betting.

    Okay Vancouver was hot so i took them last two games at home and they lost one to the flames who suck, even though they got a new coach

    now tonight boston at home has lost like 2, i need them to finish off my 5 game parlay i took ottowa and the wild as well won those
    but then boston loses to montreal????

    Okay now tomarrow im thinking of taking the Stars and maybe vancouver again but everytime i take vancouver they lose?

    Tip: Don't bet on a team just because they're on a winning streak.

    I'd never bet on hockey, because you can almost never predict what's going to happen.

      hmmmm, i like hockey because its usually only a half a goal for the favor or the unfavored.

      That means im just straight betting, instead of against a line

      So are those bad bets tomarrow?

      so in hockey consistently bad teams beat good teams at home?

      calgary has screwed me twice once i took colorado, that was a nice payoff ended up only losing that game

      Is calgary suddenly good now that iglinia is hurt, i thought he was a stud?

        The reason the spread is only a half a goal is that most games are one goal games. Its nearly impossible to bet on pro hockey. Its an 82 game season, and you get beat up. Starters are routinely scratched just to rest, and all it takes is one shot to cause an upset. The game is so close. Basically one lucky bounce either way and you lose. Dont bet on hockey. Bet on the horses or football.

          I play pro-line all the time, some years I end up even after the season and sometimes ahead. I did score $780.00 last year on a 2 dollar bet but nothing major this year yet. Getting the ties is where the money is OR betting bigger money on three games w/ low odds. Hockey is a little more chancy than the other sports but you can lower the odds against you with knowledge and especially research. Just a qick pick...

          CHI @ NYR...... NYR

          LA @ DAL .... DAL

          CAR @ EDM ... Tie

          ATL @ PHO ... PHO

          COL @ VAN ... COL

          WAS @ ANA ... WAS

              I also play Proline and Grog is right, ties is where it's at. It's not easy but that's where the money is.
