copernicus 0 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Tough year, not many overlays.first number is odds (to one) to win the Conference, second to win the Cup:East:Boston 8.6/20Washington 24.1/81NJ 8.5/16Philly 2.6/6Pitt 4.7/8Carolina 6.3/14Rangers 6.0/15Montreal 65/300Based on one website there are only three decent overlays for the East, Philly at 8:1 and Rangers and Carolina at 15:1. I hate the top 3's chances.For the Cup Philly at 20:1 and Rangers at 40:1.I dont know what the standard site is, those Cup odds look high and the overlays might not even be that good.West:SJS 2.5/5Det 12.2/30Canucks 4.1/10Chicago 3.2/6.5Calgary 43/150St. Louis 17.7/55Columbus 12.6/40Anaheim 7.7/45The Conference overlays are Chicago at 8:1, St Louis at 50:1 (high variance!) Columbus at 25:1. I dont really like any of them except Chicago, the winner is very likely coming out of the top 4. Overlays for the Cup, Chicago at 14:1 and Vancouver at 16:1.First round I really like Carolina and the Rangers as underdogs. Philly/Pitt is going to be a very interesting series and the winner probably wins the Conference. A shame they play each other in the first round.First round in the West I like SJS, Vancouver and Chicago. I have Detroit as the only higher seed losing.Going to look for that "Tampa will make the playoffs thread"!!! Link to post Share on other sites

strategy 4 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 good news: you're still alivebad news: your investment in the RTE has lost about 70% Link to post Share on other sites
copernicus 0 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 good news: you're still alivebad news: your investment in the RTE has lost about 70%the alive part was touch and go (seriously). The RTE wouldnt go too far agaisnt the med bills anyway lol.the odds I posted are my proprietary methods that have won 8 out of 10 years, 9 out of 12 years...but usually there are some bigger overlays. Ill entertain bets, yes, though obviously Im not laying grossly more than online odds. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 You really think Biron is a guy who can get it done in the playoffs, Cop? Link to post Share on other sites
copernicus 0 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 You really think Biron is a guy who can get it done in the playoffs, Cop?The East doesnt have a ton of experience in net overall. Biron has seen a ton of shots and those should get cranked down in the playoffs. If they cant slow down your guys then could lose in a long series, but if they get past Pitt I dont see much to challenge them. I only have them 54:43 over Pittsburgh and if it goes to 7 todays game could hurt them. But Ill be just as happy with a Pitt/Rangers conference final Link to post Share on other sites
fleung22 1 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 what are these numbers??They are way off IMO..LOLNucks are only 4.1-1 but the Wings are 12.2-1!? damm...I love Vancouver but I'm dumping the bank on Detroit if you gimme those odds. Link to post Share on other sites

Just beware if you take the Vegas/online odds you are getting way the worst of it. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 I still dont get it..What is the purpose of these lines you set, if you wont take action on them.The habs at bowmans right now are being offered at 33-1 to win the Cup..You are offering 300-1The Capitals are 10-1, you are offering 81-1The Canucks you actually have dead on 10-1 Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 The goaltending theory in the playoffs will go a long way..No one is talking New Jersey, but they have to be the favourite in the East. Link to post Share on other sites
