The Nucks took their chances last night, the Jackets didn't - despite dominating throughout the 3 periods. They managed to fight back and cut down Vancouver's lead to 1, but that was it. I don't think the Canucks can count on the same amount of luck tonight against the Canes.
And they were lucky last night. So many hit posts, missed shots by usually skilled Columbus offense, I don't think we're about to see the same tonight. Carolina are back home after a long road trip (5 games), in which they won the first three (beating respecable opposition in Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal, losing the next two in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, in both games they had chances to win but were a bit road weary by that time, dropping both games).
Now they're coming back home, Cam Ward is in net again, and they're playing against a team on b2b. The odds reflect all that, of course, but I still think we have a couple of good investments here. The Canes should be able to score on Luongo tonight, Vancouver 1st goalie did get a rest last night as Curtis Sanford turned into a hero in a 4-1 win over Columbus. Luongo isn't exactly himself just yet this season, and I think the Canes will take their chances. Most of Vancouver and Carolina games this season were decided by 2 goals or more.
Carolina 5 games this year that ended in regulation ALL were decided by 2 goals or more. The other 3 games went into OT.
Vancouver played 8 games, 7 were decided by multi goal margins, and only one went into OT.
The Canucks are 5-3 to over 5.5 this season and the Canes are only 3-5, but I'm not surprised they stayed under the total against Montreal (twice). Also, they only played 2 games at home this year, and I think they've been able to shake off their offensive rust and get some chemistry going during the road trip.
Since I expect the Canes to come out on top tonight and without OT, we have a solid chance of this one cashing in, and as you should know by now I'm far more comfortable of staking lesser units on a more rewarding option if I see a chance for it, than putting big stakes to win a few units. Such strategy has proven to be more rewarding over the long haul, even if it does affect the hitrate to some extent.
Here are the plays:
Hurricanes (-1,5) (2.82 @ Pinnacle) 4 units
Over 5.5 goals (2.13 @ Pinnacle) 4 units
Good luck :shake: :cheers:
