NHL playoff Best Bets - wednesday 6/5/2008

Illusion · 06-03-2008, 05:52 PM

I will do a daily recap of each days action. 10 units is the max/game.

Sorry but i will not count parlays, only straight up selections.

unit size will be the risk amount

if you risk 2u on +150; gain 3u if win, down 2u if loose.
if you risk 2u on -130; gain 1.54u if win, down 2u if loose.

good luck!

please let me know for any corrections and give me a line for the game it will make calculations easier for me

Penguins +105 (10 units)

where are the standings from yesterday ? standings for the playoffs overall ? then i could tell you if you were off in your calculations ?

i could post them myself but it is not my unit system of grading... would not want to try and take over if it is not my place to do so .
i would grade myself as much higher than the way you all grade the selections ...
whoever created this should post the results for the previous day as well as the overall standings .
is only one day left , or is it . lol

Penguins +110 10 units

Wilforth · 06-04-2008, 02:56 AM

First, the date in the title of the thread should read "Wednesday 6/4/2008" and not "...6/5/2008". That confused me a bit like the Red Wings will be confused today. Now to my bets:

Penguins ML +110
Wings/Penguins Under 5 (+110)

icemantbi · 06-04-2008, 02:07 PM

I have Detroit to win in 6 at +535, so I'm going to roll with that tonight. What a heartbreaker last game was, with the Wings blowing it in the last 35 seconds. Hopefully the Wings get it done tonight.

EastsidaProduct · 06-04-2008, 03:22 PM

Let's just say the 'champagne tastes just as sweet on the road'.

Detroit (-130)
______________

5 units.

P.S. yo Iceman...whose the broad?

Shumakov · 06-04-2008, 03:25 PM

Detroit Red Wings -1

Wait until Pens win this series before your eyes. Wings will forever regret allowing that equalizer in the last seconds of the last game.
Pens will move up 2-3 today and are capable of a streak of 3 wins. Looks improbable but we'll see.

ryanXL977 · 06-04-2008, 04:40 PM

the red wings are a much much better team
they have dominated
they wont blow it again
no way
maybe they lose today
but not again at home

one factor that exists is the age factor . kinda like the spurs scenario .... old vs youngbucks .
spurs were tagged with the old team label , result = they did make it past the young hornets but were eventually bounced

results through playoffs 08 thus far :
pens swept 4 - 0 in round 1
pens won 4 - 1 in round 2
pens won 4 - 1 in round 3
total :14 games played

wings won 4 - 2 in round 1
wings swept 4 - 0 in round 2
wings won 4- 2 in round 3
total :16 games played

age factor can be a looked at both ways , could be better to have more experience over the younger team , not sure how anyone can be confident in saying either has the ad in this game 6 ..
but the factor still exists .
det worn out ? should be
pitt worn out ? i dont know

goaltender advantage ? has to be looked at as even pretty much right ..

home ice / crowd / noise in favor of pitt / mental aspect of the pitt players being more comfortable in friendly surroundings / home cooking / refs / pitt management controls the temperatue of the buliding , ice colder or ...

i am no in the lockerroom expert , just throwing some things out there . i'm sure there is more to throw out there ..
experts ?
not just ooh det is better , is a game played on ice NOT SMOOTH DRY GRASS , neither of these teams have a backfield of barry sanders and robert newhouse and a top 3 off line with the best tight end since winslow . lol

ryan , how can anyone say a team dominated the other team in said game when said so called dominant team was down 2 - 0 . when teams truly dominate said game , any game , they really are never facing a real deficit . BEING DOWN 2 - 0 IN A STANLEY CUP FINALS GAME 5 IS PRETTY FAR FROM BEING ABLE TO SAY WE DOMINATED . LMAO
i understand what you mean , but alot of what you see in what looks like domination is just the other team allowing the other team to be on offense like that ...
is not quite like rocky putting his gloves down and letting apollo expend all his energy to tire him out ... but in a way believe it or not , teams do this in alot of sports .
AND YES IT CREATES THE ILLUSION THAT A TEAM IS BEING DOMINATED . WHEN IN REALITY IT IS A LAY LOW/NOT COMPLETLY DOWN , BUT LOW AND LET THEM EXPEND THEIR ENERGY GIVING THEIR BEST PUNCH , AND THEN YES , KABOOM !
sorry so long and for the caps .

the thought is the cause of it all !!!!! home team positive free mind can be translated into good things for the home team in said game , millions upon millions of times throughout all of sports games . positive creates positive things . home is always something to consider ...

who i take is undetermined as of yet .

detroit has domianted EXCEPT for the first period of game 3. fair enough? ha
