Great showing by the USA in both mens and womens hockey. Overall, great competition after pool play was resolved to have some closer games.

Have 5 lined up for tonight, but only playing a half unit on each as i want to see some things play out to see where teams heads are at. I will have a full unit play on the salami once it shows up in BM.

All of these were played at profitX about an hour ago.

Half unit each
Sea +150
Utah +113
Van +125
Lak -129
Ducks +104

2 Unit play
Salami ov 48.5 -115 2 units

2-3 +.37 yesterday, by the hair of my chin. Will likely be on the salami over again tonight, and a few sides of interest.
 
Salami ov 75.5 -101
Det +142 (+123)
Nyi +130 (+115) and i get sorokin in net vs montembeault. Ok.
Sea +127 (-130) prob a sucker line, but ill bite)
Phi +129 (+113)
Sj -118 (-123) thinnest of the bunch, im just really high on this group. They have been way more profitable as a dog, only having been priced as a fav about 5ish times.

Cbus ov 6 and tor ov 6 were considerations, but elected to just play the salami.

All 1 unit plays. Until monday, i will mainly be looking at dogs where i believe there is some value based on my numbers. I have pit my number in brackets next to the number played for reference.
 
3-3 +.81 yesterday
5-6 +1.18 post olympics
Goimg to attempt to keep a record just to hold myself accountable.

Only loser that was close was the salami. Seattle has back to back subpar games after the break. Sharks scored first then it was all calgary after that. Yhe fins outshot yhe flames but wolf was a wall last night stopping all but 1 of the 35 shots he faced.
 
Wash -110
Minn +127
Ana -116

IF buff gets up in yhe 110 range...ill probably bite there. I would imagine the anaheim line goes down when helle gets announced as starter. I wont be around all that much to look.
 
2-1 +1 unit yesterday
7-7 +2.18 since break

Had i played buffalo i coulda had another winner. Proud of myself tho, since it didnt hit my price target i layed off. That discipline is needed, but usually short lived.

Todays plays. All from pX
Pitt u6-107
Bos +107
Sj +144
Nyi +129
Det +172
Calg +140

Leans that didnt make the cut...but could depending on the eatly card.

Habs
Sabres
Dal
Van

Post break
10-10 +2.91

Boston had a ton of scoring chances and vladar was nails in the net. Very chippy game.

Plays i didnt make went 3-1...usually how it goes.

Couple interesting options im digging into for today

11-12 +1.59

Didnt have one set of my numbers and tried to wing it. I wont do that again. It may have absolutly nothing to do with the outcomes, buti know i didnt do the work, and was gifted a losing effort as a result.
 
Just 1 for today.

Tough card, imo with some crappy goalie matchups. Just going to keep it light.

Considered the nyr side, but felt them getting to 3 goals was more realistic vs merz.

Philly looked interesting, but toronto has the offensive weaponry to compete. Stolarz looks to get the start for the leafs and vladar for philly. Still debating this one.

Would have taken the kings at that price, but not with forsberg in net.


Alt tt parlay +122
Rangers ov 2.5
Dallas ov 2.5

2-0 +2.41

13-12 +4 units

The rangers waited till the 3rd period to begin their scoring journey. Fun game to watch after the 2nd intermission. Dallas got their 3 goals by the 2nd period. Gosh vancouver is challenged right now. Philly skueaked by in ot.
 
5 on tap for this evening. Some really good matchups.

Ottawa +101
Buff -134
Bos -112
Cbus -134
Winn/sj ov 6.5 -107

Anaheim and sharks sides were considerations. Not alot of dogs i found enticing. I dont like the chalkiness of my card, but it is what lines up with numbers.

4-1 +3 units
Post olympics
17-13 +7 units

Columbus was down by 1 heading into 3rd and notched two in the final frame to get the w.

Sabres scored the first 3 goals of the game before vegas netted 2 in the 2nd. Lyon stood tall in the 3rd to hang on the victory.

pittsburgh led for just under 4 minutes of this game. 3 combined goals in the 1st was all the scoring for the night. Swayman saved 34 of the 35 faced to get me the cash.

San jose has been profitable for me this year. Celebrini continues his push for rookie honors with a 1 goal 3 assist night. I need to look up how many games he has scored at least a point. The sharks eclipsed the total themselves to cash a ticket.

Sens were up 4-2 heading into the final frame. Ullmark just couldnt hold the lead as the home team tied it up in the 3rd and getting the extra poiny with an ot goal.
 
Todays plays

Have more than i probably should given yhe limited card, but i like the situations and matchups so im going to roll with it. Lines appear to be tightening up a bit as the trade deadline looms friday.

Det ov 5.5 -129
Ana ov 6.5 -112
Sea -138
Car -1.5 -113

Both offenses in detroit capable to get this over. Add in talbot vs likely hill for the knights and i like my chances more. Chose to pay a bit higher juice for the 5.5 as opposed to the flat 6 at -103.

Rittich is confirmed and husso likely for the ducks, both of whom profile for higher scoring contests. Isles should put out a good effort here off a couple day break, and still clinging to 3rd in the Met by 5 pts over surging columbus. Anaheim is in 2nd place, 1 back of pacific leader vegas and 1 ahead of the 3rd place oilers. Seattle is just 2 back of the ducks in 4th. Isles have kings on deck tomorrow and the sharks on saturday.

Carolina, off a loss, should start bussi here as anderson has gone the previous 3. But i would be ok with backup even thos he is 2-3 his last 5, but has faced much tougher teams than the nucks. Good tuneup before they play @edmonton on friday. At some point, vancouver will get another win...but i am hopeful they come out generally uncompetitive tonight. We shall see what transpires. Canes 1st in the met ahead of pitt by 7, but clinging to a 2 point lead as best in the east.

Seattle was my last addition, and hope that means little. Of all the games on the card, this one has the highest level of variance from my numbers. Perhaps folks are enticed by binningtons steller play for team canada. As a blue, he does not have the same kind of offense or defense in front of him to have a better shot at similar success as in milan. Seattle, as mentioned is 1point behind edmonton in the pacific for 3rd but currently sits 1pt behind utah in the 2nd wildcard spot 3 points aheas of the surging sharks. These 2 just met 1st game back from the break with the blues winning 5-1. Grubauer was in net then, and likely tonight. Perhaps that is some additional part of the line discrepency. That game was in st. Louis. Seattle is 16-9-5 at home while 13-13-4 on the road. The blues are 14-12-2 at home and 8-17-3 on the road. Ill take my chances with what i feel is a discount on the kraken
 
Looking forward to the game downtown tonight. I was trying to move things around to get down there but no dice!

Cossa was recalled this morning as the emergency backup due to the Gibson injury.
 
Woulda been a good one if you coulda got over that way. Talbot looked good in relief. Surrendered the 2nd goals for the preds early in the 2nd, then the wings fired up the offense and scored 3 unanswered.

Ill be fine with a similar script tonight.

Detroit went over when vegas tied the game with about 2:30 left in the 3rd and ultimately picked up the road victory in extra time. 3 point night for the knights marner.

Canucks led 2-1 after the first then rattled off 4 unanswered in the 2nd before vancouver added another. An early 3rd period goal by the home team put them within 1 before an empty netter allowed me to cash my PL ticket.

Anaheim did their part and the isles didnt. Hats off to the 1st star Husso as he stopped 42 of the 43 shots he faced. The isles actually outshot the ducks by 17 shots, no doubt spurned by the 3-1 hole the found themselves in after the 1st. Isles were trying to stay in it after another home team goal in the 3rd by pulling their goalie with under 5 to go.

After each team scoring in the 1st, the blues scored the next 2 (1 in 2nd and 1 in 3rd) before seattle got back within one. That was where the score stayed. Hofer went instead of binnington as i figure him to get moved. Seattle has got me twice since the break, both against the blues. Ill still look at them as a short home fav or home dog.

Todays plays.
Will be adding some more throughout the day. But jumping in on this one now.

Isles +120
Pitt +100
Cbus -108
Utah/philly un6 -115
Bos +101
