digitalmonkey 929 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Here is the prop bet proposal I made:No odds. I'll give you 7.5 points. I would like the win in the event of a tie because i think Toronto's upcoming schedule is slightly easier than Montreal's. We will put the deadline at the end of Montreal's game against Washington on November 28th. That gives Toronto 12 games in the bet and Montreal 12 games in the bet. Here is the schedule:Toronto vs...Nov 3rd - Tampa Bay LOST 2-1 OT6th - @ Carolina WON 3-27th - Detroit WON 5-110th - Minnesota LOST 5-213th - @ Chicago LOST 3-214th - Calgary LOST 5-217th - @ Ottawa LOST 3-219th - @ Carolina LOST 6-5 SO21st - Washington WON 2-1 OT23rd - NY Islanders LOST 4-3 OT25th - @ Tampa Bay WON 4-327th - @ FloridaMontreal vs...Nov 3rd - Atlanta LOST 5-45th - @ Boston WON 2-1 SO7th - Tampa Bay LOST 3-110th - Calgary LOST 1-012th - @ Phoenix WON 4-214th - @ Nashville LOST 2-017th - Carolina WON 3-2 SO20th - @ Washington WON 3-221st - Detroit LOST 3-2 SO24th - Columbus WON 5-325th - @ Pittsburgh LOST 3-128th - WashingtonRunning TotalToronto 11Montreal 11$25.00 CDN...deal?Here is who accepted:serge $25Dubey $25mrdannyg $25 Link to post Share on other sites

serge 904 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 booked. good luckI think looking at the recent play of the Leafs and with the addition of the Monster fulltime and Kessel, it might be too easy a bet..Ok i wont jinx it..i really think we pass them before the end of the month.

mrdannyg 274 Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Booked!I was disappointed other people accepted the bet. I think we could've got 8.5 points instead of 7.5 Kudos to Monkey though for proposing a bet that finishes with his team playing Washington. Very gentlemanly. Link to post Share on other sites

digitalmonkey 929 Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 I predict Montreal will go 7-5 or 6-6 in the next 12 games. Toronto will go 5-7 at best. Link to post Share on other sites

Without taking into account overtime/shootout losses, you are missing 30% of Montreal's points and 60% of the Leafs.FYI: re Adam's Yahoo Pool...Canadian Gothic 35-21-8 78 pointsMustangs 26-27-11 65 pointsThank you, and thank you. I was trying not to rub in what seems to have been a disastrous Saturday for Serge. How many points does Adam have? Link to post Share on other sites

Montreal will get at least 12.Adam: 30-26-8 68 points Link to post Share on other sites

Montreal will get at least 12.Adam: 30-26-8 68 pointsyou are missing the main point that is clear as can be:The Montreal Canadiens are a very bad team who has been getting lucky in overtime and shootouts.The Toronto Maple Leafs are a superior team who needed time to figure some stuff out ie Vesa Toskala needs to change careers.Also Phil Kessel(he of the 40 goal shot) will be back SOON, possibly tomorrow.The Montreal Canadiens have only one win where they have won by more than one goal..That was against the Islanders.Luck only goes so far.

Why do you continue to consider this luck? It would be the same as claiming someone is lucky when their pocket 8s beats your AK more often than not."The Montreal Canadiens have only one win where they have won by more than one goal."

digitalmonkey 929 Posted November 2, 2009 Author Share Posted November 2, 2009 Some comments I can't wait to see halfway through the year when the Leafs are 7-22-12.Burke: Are you guys crazy? We can't abandon our plan halfway through the season. That'd be frickin' ridiculous. Get the hell outta here...this press conference is over.Serge: We've looked good so far. We should have won at least 20 of those games we lost. Link to post Share on other sites
