I've been asked easier questions Harry that's for sure...

Caps & Sharks always flatter to deceive with their impressive regular season form but the play-offs require a different mentality and a more season campaigned team such as Pens or Wings will always find a weakness when the heat's turned up , Caps ae the neutral fav team but invariably find a Pens type team in any form a lot tougher than rolling over a team in the regular season with a lot less intensity.
Devils are a shocking team at the moment as the 66/1 indicates but when you examine their personnel they look good enough to go a long way into the season if they get their act together.
Tampa look a good bunch but any injury to Stamkos will severely hinder their chances whilst Canucks have strength in all areas and will see the season out stronger than most , a big threat to all I think.
A couple of interesting young contenders are Kings & Blues , both have enough ability to go a long way but whether they have the play-off mentality amongst the current bunch is questionable , that said they will be a threat this season and even more so over the next couple of years.
Bruins are looking strong at the moment and suffered last season with both the Lucic injuries and the Savard incident against Pens didn't seem to do them any good , Flyers over achieved last season by reaching the final but have an even tougher task this season for me with issues in key positions.

Lot of waffle there mate with no real conviction about who may lift the cup , only thing I would say is don't back any team to win the trophy on what they've achieved in the regular season however impressive their record may be , the play-offs are an entirely different challenge when the "been there and done it" teams generally come into their own.

Hi all,

Anyway to confirm if Luongo is in net tonight against PIT?

GLA

Thanks Hayden. Fast game so far. Both teams looking good.

Thanks, delpiero7. Much appreciated.

Chicago

Otherwise things go according to plan.  Wild win again, gonna chuck a fiver at them to win the whole shooting match I think.

Good luck, see you tonight

Unlucky drew nearly a clean sweep , won't do you any harm to throw a fiver on your speculative fancy for the cup itself & it will help increase your knowledge of the standings by following Wild's progress and although currently 11th in the Western are only 5pts off the leaders and a single point behind the 8th place objective in a very congested conference.

Only my own personal view but i've  often mentioned that current form is of virtually no consideration for me and it's more about scheduling ( past & future ) , identifying the target games ( certain teams are very adept at upping the game for divisional or statement match-ups ) and the rosters including the likely motivation & form of the MVP type players.
You're correct about binning the multi's as the majority of selections will be favourites so however tempting multi's are it's a poor house route in the long term i'm afraid.
There's no more unpredictable sport than NHL in my opinion but that doesn't mean you can't work out a strategy to make it pay , look at the Sharks game last night they were 3-1 ahead and up by 29 shots to 12 .... and lost in OT , the past has less respect for the future in this sport more than any other in my view.


Back later 

Liquidity in-play is virtually non-existent on here as punters either want everything or give you nothing , the live games are better in that you get recreational punters joining in but even then you will either get no value or be sniped especially on the Canadian games which are well ahead timewise.
Better to look at the various markets at bookmakers tbh and pits your wits against the "special" markets which is something you get the occasional great bet , after all that's when your just pitting your wits against an odds compiler who just uses a matrix most of the time , join as many bookmakers abroad as you can , take all the free bets going and have several open at the ready when the live games are on , that's the only viable alternative to pre-match betting tbh unless you want to get out by throwing a cheap lay in but you'll probably only get it matched after the "goal" has been scored so it's just giving virtual free money to someone anyway.

Nice to see you think the Bruins can be kept out del - I've laid them and also Philidelphia on the 60 minute mkts - as HAYDEN has pointed out the league is so unpredictable that taking the really skinny prices can be suicidal.

On the other hand, Montreal are rolling and the loss in Toronto will have been hard for Nashville to take - so 11/10 to win in 60 will be my main hope tonight.

Leaving SJ at Dallas (as advised ) although think Sharks will win and the game in Toronto is unpalatable (probably a scorcher in a couple of months).

I've a very big bet in a football match in S America tonight, so trying to stay awake and hopefully drop in IR.

Good Luck

GL with bets fellas

Both reserve goalies playing in the Bruins game tonight. That 0-0 bet definitely has no chance now!

2 shots 2 goal Bolts

That's why Stamkos will probably get 60 goals this season , he doesn't need many chances

4-3

5-3

This game's mental 

sikkk game

sorry, make that 6-5 Flyers.

Anyone on the under in this one?

7-7, Stamkos hattrick, 5 pts total

Flyers have been conceding stupid penalties for most of the game. 3 Lightning goals have come on the powerplay so far.
