Toronto might get off to a flyer tonight but watching for a while before taking the plunge
Thoughts all?

Well I'll be watching. Only dabbled small so far, but think the Senators might are worth a small bet at fancy odds. Also small on the Habs.
Expect the usual suspects to be strong again though, Boston are value @13.5. Will be rooting for my Kings who should go well again with a settled team but they've been slow starters in recent years so will bet them at a later date. |

I like the boston pick,first team I backed last season,going to be strong again.

Think it is madness to leave Pittsburgh out of a portfolio this time - though reading the news about Vokoun and with the awful season Fleury had last time enthusiasm is slightly dampened. If not Pittsburgh I like Detroit, who manage to churn out results and seem to be seamlessly going through a transition based upon last season's showing.
Of those at bigger odds I'd say that Dallas have done some fair business - the signings from Boston particularly eyecatching. Also like Winnipeg - incredible home support and very streaky. The books look pretty lopsided to the east, can't see a particular reason for this? Good luck all |

I know its aftertiming, but l jumped on Pittburgh @ 1-0

happy toronto won 2 games but their defence is definitely shaky. it will be up to their goalies

Think Jets will take advantage of rusty Kings tonight.....Quick looked a little out of sorts to me last night and the home fans to make the difference.
Good luck |
|
By:
Did you see Quick's howler last night CJ? Pretty unfortunate stuff, only watched highlights on Gamecentre and he looked back to his best, on balance it looked as though Rangers carried some luck.
With that in mind and Sharks being fast out of the blocks again this season I'm happy to take San Jose to win in regulation at evens. Goals could be at a premium tonight as things settle down - i'm hoping especially so in Nashville. NHL to the fore a bit tonight....good luck all |
|
By:
I'm going for a money line 4 fold tonight,
Maple leafs, flyers, penguins and the wild. Wild preds game could be my downfall |
|
By:
Unlucky rmc16 - Penguins looked awesome at times last night while Minnesota look to me like a team to duck for a while.
Tonight's games pretty unappealing - interesting that the game in Calgary is slightly overbroke with the books - I'd have thought Flames would be slight favs but nothing entices a bet - tomorrow night looks better |
|
By:
Quietly fancy Carolina to win in Washington tonight, if they stay out of the box they have every chance of matching Caps - and Holtby looks like a sieve at the minute. 7/5 looks really good.
Elsewhere Buffalo to get first win, and why would anyone field against SJ just now? Won last 10 against Vancouver..... |
|
By:
Some very nice picks last night drew. Watched the avs game and they fully deserved the win.
|

Just had a read back Swardean and Buffalo is first one I've got wrong on thread! I can soon fettle that though!
Due to screaming baby I saw more sport than I'd like last night. Caps/Canes was decent, not much between them tbh so punting for value made sense. Caught some of Van/SJ - Sharks look amazing right now, but they did early last season. Saw more hockey due to poor NFL fare...got a shock in 2nd half when over 47.5 looked briefly under threat but in truth 2 poor teams for me. Trappy stuff tonight but Isles have made a good start - was imperative for them to build on last season - and at 8/5 they are a sporting punt in a difficult building. Also going to back Calgary against NJ, again as against Montreal, I'd make Flames favourites but books disagree |
|
By:
I like the fancy odds about Florida at home to Boston tonight - shame I can't stay up to watch Thomas against his former team....suspicion he will play out of his skin and 8/5 looks good enough on money line.
Buffalo look dreadful and Vancouver should skate rings around them tonight - odds against is fine to beat a team in 60 minutes that has lost 6 of 8 that way already. |
|
By:
Interesting game tonight. Everyone keen on the blues but I like the jets at home and odds against.
|
|
By:
Decent shout Swardean....though it didn't look likely with 10 minutes left!!
Nashville look the goods at 13/10 at in-and-out Minnesota in what will probably be a low scorer |
|
By:
Half right drew! Not got gamecenter this year so not watching as much as previous years, at least whilst the NFL is going. Too many late nights last year took its toll but guess I will pick it up again in feb and certainly for the playoffs. Would like to see a Canadian team win it again, they love their hockey and it would be a good boost for the sport.

I'm just watching the live streams online - you can watch whichever game you choose and with a set of nights starting tomorrow its a godsend.
I'm through with the NFL after the weekend...season started well but hit some really bad luck (honest! not bets I regret) but betting over 39 in KC/Houston then witnessing what happened in last 20 minutes play - and not least final throes of the game - has really knocked my end in. |
|
By:
Greedy bet on Stars to beat leaky Flames.....Stars -1.5 at 9/5
Good luck NFL fans - might be hard to watch tonight |
|
By:
Too easy drew
  |

By:
Shoot-out last night in tampa,if only that team could shut up shop...who do you fancy this year swardean?
|
|
By:
Nothing jumps out as value tonight to these eyes....a goal fest looks on the cards in Pittsburgh but game is priced up accordingly - similarly the game in St Louis should be tight but prices are right.
Buffalo are truly dreadful just now - if Miller was playing better I may have entertained under 5 goals in Florida but for interest going to back Ottawa to beat Anaheim inside the distance at 5/4. Ducks were out of sorts last night in Montreal and don't seem to enjoying their time in Canada! |
|
By:
Ottawa even tougher at home that habs
|
|
By:
Typical
Over the line in Pittsburgh (crazy last 10 minutes), Under the line in St Louis, Under 5 in Florida (ENROTH stopped 44!!) and which one do you decide to back  Ottawa just not at the races at any point in the game - c'est la vie |
|
By:
Your Boston team with their physicality and smothering defense are build for the playoffs and and will be there at the end. Sharks solid and have real flare.
Of, the outsiders I lime wild and redwings. Think Chicago and Pittsburgh come unstuck somewhere down the line. My team the canucks better than I hoped after major changes so fingers crossed they can have a decent run. |
|
By:
Taking Ducks on again tonight - Ottawa just didn't show on Friday night and handed Ducks the game. Jackets have won three straight at home and have looked good doing so and their hard press will hopefully take its toll on a team that have done some travelling in past 8 days (5th game). 5/6 CBJ looks outstanding value
|
|
By:
Watched CBJ against Toronto and they did play well so may join you on this one drew
|
|
By:
Having an NFL free weekend Swardean - thought it would be like giving up smoking but have managed it OK up until now!
|
|
By:
Dreadful decision to five Dubinsky 5 minutes for what looked a clean hit will probably put paid to Jackets bet - ffs
|
|
By:
Like under 5.5 in games at NJ and St Louis tonight.
The trade of Moulsen and high picks for Vanek looks the strangest I have seen in years in the NHL. Is he even better or does he have more potential (Vanek that is)? Tavares played so well with Moulsen - can't help but thinking the Isles have finally dug themselves out of a hole but fallen into a crater - really big game tonight and Isles should be looking to beat Rangers but I have my doubts - won't be betting |
|
By:
good call on the unders drew, was close in both though!
|
|
By:
Never in much doubt in NJ to be fair gonesleeping....and only the usual last-minute will-they-won't-they in St Louis after the late winner.
I watched Isles/Rangers and game panned out as I feared it might. Rangers won despite offering very little - the worrying thing for Islanders is every time one of theirs goes to the box they look like conceding. Some are saying they need to bolster defence, other say keeper, but I'd say both. Unless Vanek hits it off quickly with JT the Moulson trade will be a spectacular own goal. |
|
By:
Calgary finally look to be making a fortress of Saddledome (well kind of....4 games) but all that said they show decent forward power game by game and may just be value at evs to beat Toronto tonight.
|
|
By:
Need to hope Flames stay out of box on evidence of first penalty kill attempt
|
|
By:
Something seriously wrong in Buffalo - just watched first 10 mins of their game at ordinary NYR and it looks as though Sabres have never played the game before.....coaching must be chronic
|
|
By:
Been watching myself drew waiting for the NFL. Did you know that b365 now have free streams on every game in real time, pretty good
|
|
By:
Watching them Swardean - with me binoculars!!!
The same company were also overbroke for about half an hour between 2 of their goal markets  so although I'm only pennies to the good they are my free pennies.Buffalo are embarrassing - and anyone that loses to this lot in the next couple of weeks needs to take a look at themselves. If I were Miller (or Enroth) I'd take up bricklaying...or the priesthood |
|
By:
Loads of opportunities tonight.......
Under 5.5 looks very good in Washington and Ottawa (where I'd have thought Habs would be shorter) Rangers look a touch of value - should be in great heart after last night and Columbus were pretty abject last time and confidence is thin with a run of home losses. Last season's trades add some spice to this but happy to take odds against. Good luck |
|
By:
Amazing drew, I make that 3 out of 3. Cleaning up on the NHL this year. 1 and 1 for me wild (very unlucky) and canucks (finally broke the streak).

Don't shout it too loud Swardean!! If hockey was the only sport I'd be worth a fortune just now.....
Sent you a message the other day - not sure if you saw it? Wouldn't have made you rich but you'd be no poorer either. |
