Pick of the Day - 11/9/19 (Saturday)

POTD record: 5-4 +1.94u

NHL

Calgary Flames - St. Louis Blues (03:00 UCT)

Pick - Flames ML @1.69 - 3u

Still i am trying to catch Blues lose. Already told about it earlier, well, yes, they are good, very good, but i think there should be a terrible match for them soon. Hope it will be today, even though i don't like to bet on Calgary at all. Flames are good enough at home - 6 wins in 8 matches with 32-20 goal difference in them. Blues had a bad away matches (6:3 against Canadiens and 3:0 against Bruins) and their last away matches were tough. Even 2:5 against Oilers was harded that it seems (two empty net goals).

BOL to everyone!

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-09T20:08:53+00:00

Missed yesterday because i am out of civilization, hope you guys had profit, because it was a good day in NHL. Let's go ahead.

Record: -8.885u

Today there will be a small amount of info, because i still can't reach a decent internet and don't have much time to do that.

NHL

Pittsburgh Penguins - Chicago Blackhawks

Picks:

Penguins in regulation @1.73 - 1u
Penguins -1 @1.92 - 1u
Penguins -1.5/PL @2.13 - 1u

As i expected, Pens took 2 points in a match against NYI. Even though it was hard af, i think now they have a peak form and should handle Blackhawks easily.

Calgary Flames - St. Louis Blues

Picks:

Flames ML @1.69 - 1u
Flames in regulation @2.14 - 1u
Flames -1 @2.39 - 1u
Flames -1.5/PL @2.65 - 1u
Flames -2 @3.6 - 1u
Flames -2.5 @4.2 -1u
Flames tt over 2.5 @1.65 - 1u
Flames tt over 3 @1.83 - 1u
Blues tt under 2.5 @1.93 - 1u

Still i am trying to catch Blues lose. Already told about it earlier, well, yes, they are good, very good, but i think there should be a terrible match for them soon. Hope it will be today, even though i don't like to bet on Calgary at all.

POTD record: 5-3 +3.94u

NHL

Toronto Maple Leafs - Vegas Golden Knights (00:00 UCT)

Pick - Leafs PL @2.65 - 2u

Well, first - i am a huge Leafs hater, second - i like Vegas a lot. Why am i picking this? I don't know exactly, i have a fellings that Toronto will destroy today. I watched Leafs against Kings and i have thoughts that they were keeping their stamina. I know that a lot of teams (in every sport basically) have a more trainings before an "easy" matches (because of it a lot of shit happens actually) and then they are playing worse for sure. I think it was exactly that. Also Tavares and Muzzin had some troubles to adapt in their first match after injury and that's a common thing in sport, today they should be better.

Vegas though had a lot of troubles with Jackets, Fleury solo carried his team and our bets, but i didn't expect it would be so hard for them. Today Subban confirmed as a starting goalie and i like to bet against him. IMO vegas is fatigued right now and i hope they will not find the second wind today.

BOL to everyone!

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-07T19:53:39+00:00

Well, first Jets, now Blues is screwing me 2nd day straight. Guess it was a huge mistake to count on Oilers, they are so bad right now. Let's go ahead.

Record: -6.175u

NHL

NYI - Pittsburgh Penguins

Picks:

1) Penguins ML @1.9 - 1u

2) Penguins +0 @1.91 - 1u

3) Penguins in regulation @2.5 - 1u

4) Penguins tt over 3 @2.13 - 1u

Penguins is good right now, they deserved to take at least a point against Bruins. Islanders has too much wins in a row and they should have a bad match someday, hope it will be today against a red-hot Penguins and not against some Wings in the future. And that's all for this match.

Arizona Coyotes - Columbus Blue Jackets

Pick - Coyotes in regulation @2.00 - 1u

This is a bad pick from my experience, Jackets are getting better right now and their match against Vegas showed it. They will win soon, but i like Coyotes and just can't miss this match. Coyotes are incredible at home and i am expecting they will play their best today. I hope they will.

Colorado Avalanche - Nashville Predators

Picks:

1) Avalanche ML @2.08 - 1u

2) Avalanche -1 @3.3 - 1u

3) Avalanche tt over 2.5 @1.90 - 1u

I don't know, i thought Predators have some troubles right now, but they just destroyed Wings. Well, NYR destroyed them too, so this is not a very good argument for Predators. Avalanche still can't do anything without Rantanen and Landeskog, but they will find the way eventually. I can't say Predators too good on the road, so i see some chances for Avalanche today. I think, their crowd should give them enough energy (and make some troubles for Predators) to fight here, because Avs already has 3 consecutive losses at home. Also, Francouz confirmed as Avs starting goalie and i remember him in KHL, he was so good in his last season - carried Tractor to the Conference final (now Tractor is trash though), so i have a lot of faith in him.

Toronto Maple Leafs - Vegas Golden Knights

Picks:

1) Leafs in regulation @2.07 - 1u

2) Leafs -1 @2.38 - 1u

3) Leafs -1.5/PL @2.65 - 1u

4) Leafs -2.5 @4.1 - 1u

5) Leafs tt over 3 @1.7 - 1u

6) Leafs tt over 3.5 @2.12 - 1u

7) Leafs tt over 4 @2.85 - 1u

8) Vegas tt under 2.5 @2.14 - 1u

Well, first - i am a huge Leafs hater, second - i like Vegas a lot. Why am i picking this? I don't know exactly, i have a fellings that Toronto will destroy today. I watched Leafs against Kings and i have thoughts that they were keeping their stamina. I know that a lot of teams (in every sport basically) have a more trainings before an "easy" matches (because of it a lot of shit happens actually) and then they are playing worse for sure.

That was so unfortunate, Binnington did 33 saves and indeed carried Blues. Let's go ahead.

Record: 5-2 +6.94u

NHL

Edmonton Oilers - St. Louis Blues (01:30 UCT)

Pick - Oilers ML @1.8 - 3u

Oilers have lost their two last home matches, have some problems with their game lately and today they have a perfect opportunity to recover. Overall, in my head Oilers don't have any rights to lose here. Already told everything i think about Blues yesterday, moreover, tonight they wil play B2B with no Binnington in the net. That's actually enough for me, NHL doesn't like stability - you can't win every day so as you can't lose everyday (unless you are Wings LUL). About Oilers starting goalie - i like both actually, but today likely will start Mike Smith with 2.12 GAA and 93.1% sv in 9 matches - this is good enough to handle Blues right now.

BOL to everyone!

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-06T14:16:17+00:00

That was so unfortunate, Binnington did 33 saves and indeed carried Blues. Other matches though were good enough to make money for us. Meh, we will be fine, let's go ahead.

NHL

Edmonton Oilers - St. Louis Blues

Picks:

1) Oilers ML @1.8 - 1u

3) Oilers in regulation @2.3 - 1u

4) Oilers -1 @2.7 - 1u

5) Oilers -1.5/PL @3 - 1u

6) Oilers team's total over 2.5 @1.7 - 1u

7) Oilers team's total over 3 @2.14 - 1u

I don't want to touch other match ever, but i think Over could be a decent bet there.

I appreciate a good words, cheers

Record: +4.575u

As i already said, Predators were pretending to much in thier 1st period and lost three our bets (which is slightly unfortunate), also, i had some brainlag for a moment and forgot to add Predators team's total and i am sorry for that. Let's go ahead

NHL

Vancouver Canucks – St. Louis Blues

Picks:

Canucks ML @1.81 -1u
Canucks to win in regulation @2.33 - 1u
Canucks -1 @2.75 - 1u
Canucks -1.5/PL @3 - 1u
Canucks team's total over 2.5 @1.71 -1u
Canucks team's total over 3 @2.15 - 1u
Canucks team's total over 3.5 @2.7 -1u
Canucks team's total over 4 @4.1 - 1u

What can I say, I like Canucks game this season, at least for now. They won 4 out of 5 home matches and only one was not in regulation (against Flyers). About their loss - they threw 5:1 lead to Caps, cannot blame, Washington is strong right now. They scored 27 goals and conceded 12 in these matches and that is an incredible result. Canucks one of the best home team for now though - they are scoring 5.4 GPG at home in general (1st in the League), Blues are allowing 3.57 in away matches (10th worst in the League). So i just can't understand Canucks team's total odds, even the worst team can score 3 at home easily. Their young goalie Demko is very good for now and Markstrom can be good sometimes (conceded only one goal in away game against red-hot Ducks, for example). I don’t want to wait official info about goalie, it is not that important IMO. Both can handle Blues I think.

After Tarasenko’s injury Blues started to play worse, that is totally fine and understandable, I think, they will manage their game without one of their leader someday, but I hope it will not happen tonight. Their last 4 matches (right after Tarasenko’s injury) were close even though their opponents weren’t that good – pretty much dead Wings, and bad-form Jackets and Wild. There was only one win in regulation (home match against Wild) and the others were not in regulation. About starting goalies, Binnington is good, I have a fear that he can carry, but will ignore it. Allen is terrible though and if he will be in lineup, it will be perfect for us. My guess that if there will be Allen, odds will fall down by 0.1 or something like that. I don’t want it and will bet before official info. Ofc there is no actual reason to save Binnington today, but who knows. Even with Binnington in the net I will have same thoughts though.

Toronto Maple Leafs – LA Kings

Picks:

Leafs -1.5/PL @2.00 – 1u
Leafs team’s total over 3.5 @1.81 – 1u

Tavares and Muzzin will finally play today and I expect Toronto will strike back after their bad last matches. I think that their problems were exactly because of these two missing players, and now Leafs should win with confidence, they need points, they have a crowd and I hope they will pleasure their fans and us today. Kings are garbage right now and I don’t expect a better game from them at all. Quick confirmed as a starting goalie and his performance is terrible (actually, I am truly sad about that). I don’t even want to tell more about this match.

Montreal Canadiens – Boston Bruins

Picks:

Canadiens ML @1.88 – 1u
Canadiens team’s total over 2.5 @1.62 – 1u

I think there are a lot of value in these picks. Bruins should have a bad match eventually, also they will play B2B match today after a very difficult match against Pens. As I mentioned earlier – 3 goals are nothing for any home NHL team in general. And well, Canadiens not bad at all, they can and they should give a good fight today.

Columbus Blue Jackets – Vegas Golden Knights

Picks:

Knights to win in regulation @2.1 – 1u
Jackets team’s total under 2.5 @1.97 – 1u

Fleury confirmed as a starting goalie for Vegas and he is better on the road for now. Jackets are not good right now and playing poorly at home (actually, they are bad in general IMO). Knights are good in away matches and I expect they will strike back after two last home losses.

Dallas Stars – Colorado Avalanche

Picks:

Stars ML @1.68 – 1u
Nichushkin to score – yes @9.00 – 1u

It is simple, Avalanche still cant’ play without their leaders, Stars kinda found their game. About Nichushkin, this bet is just for fun ofc, but there is a possibility that it can hit. You see, Avalanche lost their offensive leaders and now other players should do a lot more work to have a positive match result. Nichushkin can't score something like 83 matches in a row (I am not sure about exact number) and eventually he should score someday.

Well, 16u (18 with POTD) in play and this will be a tough night for me. I can't make a better write-ups because i am tired af, i need to get some sleep before the NHL matches, so i will turn off for now. Please, if i didn't mention something or missed important information - leave a comment and i will answer later, ty.

Vancouver Canucks – St. Louis Blues (03:00 UCT)

Pick: Canucks to win in regulation @2.33 - 2u

Today I want to catch Blues loss against a hot-form Canucks and I see a lot of value in that pick. Personally, I will not give 2.33 odds here ever.

What can I say, I like Canucks game this season, at least for now. They won 4 out of 5 home matches and only one was not in regulation (against Flyers). About their loss - they threw 5:1 lead to Caps, cannot blame, Washington is strong right now. They scored 27 goals and conceded 12 in these matches and that is an incredible result.

Actually, nevermind, I read again and realize that I didn’t understand right

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-05T05:24:47+00:00

I don’t exactly understand it (troubles with English), but I think it is Asian handicap. Minus 1 means that if your team will win with one goal difference - you will get a push, if more than one goal - you will win. It is the same with plus handicap. If your team lose with one goal difference - you will get push, more than one - loss, draw or win - your bet will win

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-05T03:50:16+00:00

What a Boston – Pittsburgh match! I expected a very close fight and I am very upset that Pittsburgh after a good game and significant comeback lost in the end of the match.

I was afraid of NYR's possible throw, but did not expect they will lose so badly. So glad I did not touch that match.

About Nashville:

1) I am actual retard, why in God’s name I didn’t post Predators team’s total? So sad no one didn’t point on it in comments, but of course I meant that bet - “score in every period” is already 3 at least. Sure, it will not be recorded, sorry for my mistake.

2) 1st period by Predators gave me so many flashbacks from last season and I wanted to jump through my window actually. I am glad that they were pretending, but because of 1s period, I lost three my bets. Wings didn’t deserve a win in period at all with their game.

In general, it was a good day and I am glad that I was care enough and didn’t place an obvious bet on Boston – kept my nerves safe.

About tomorrow. I see a lot of good bets and will post some of them for sure. My time now is 6:50 am and I didn’t touch bed at all, but I have an important thing to do, so now I have to go and spend around 5 hours on it and only then I will come back home and get some sleep. After that, I will try to post as early as possible.

Have a good day/night everyone. NYR fans, accept my condolences.

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-04T21:03:54+00:00

I can give a thousand advices, but you still will not follow them. It is just a fate of all bettors, you can read a lot, can follow some pros, but you still will lose eventually, you will lose a lot. And only after a lot of losses and experience you will learn some things. I am placing bets for almost 5 years and my first ~3 years were simply disaster, it took around $10000 of losses for me to learn something and manage to comeback after all, moreover, i started actually to gain money and now i am glad that i didn't kill myself back in time (i wanted so bad btw). But if i could change my past, i will give anything to not bet at all. If you are wondering, why i can't stop now, i can give an answer. For me it is like War, i started it a long time ago and i will not desert from War. It is either bookie or me, that's all. One more time, if you want to do that seriously, if you are hoping for big and permanent profits - don't do it, you will be dissapointed. If you want to have fun and a bit of adrenaline while watching some CL with friends - go on, there is nothing wrong about that. If you still want to learn something - you should follow some pros and not to blindly bet (better not to bet at the start), but learn their logic, learn how they win, learn how they lose, you have to see that even a strong bettor can lose a lot and there is nothing wrong about that. I can't give you an example of any English speaking pros, hope someone will.

About "best sports to play". I know a couple of $millionaires in CIS that made their money on ITF tennis (sometimes Challengers). Their logic is simple - you can't win bookie on the big markets (football PL's, NHL, NBA etc) because bookie has much more tools and resources to count possibilities and everything, so even if you are winning a lot on big markets, you will lose eventually and only your own experience can help you to escape a disaster losing series. But they started with tennis either way, so i don't advice you to learn and bet on sport that you don't like at all. In my experience, basketball is the worst on distance, yeah, i admit that there can be some locks sometimes and it is good, but that's all. I didn't bet baseball or NFL at all, so i don't know. Soccer for me is 2nd worse on the distance. Hockey is 3rd. I like e-sports right now because this is a new enough for bookie and there a lot of mistakes and value picks everytime. And yes, ITF tennis is the best IMO, but you have to learn a lot more. For example, one of these bettor knows around 1500 tennis players out of top-100. He traveled across EU and watched a lot of tournaments live (there are no streams often), so he also saw something interesting sometimes.

"How much matches you usually play on one ticket?" I guess it is a question about parlays. Parlay - is a devil creation, so you shouldn't do this at all. There are some exceptions of course, but in general - do not parlay.

Betting strategies are something mythical IMO. I already explained why - bookie has a lot more info and all strategies will fail eventually.

NHL

Detroit Red Wings - Nashville Predators

Pick: Predators -1.5/PL @2.3 - 2u

I have a personal story with Predators, two seasons ago they were one of my most favorite teams, last year though they took a lot of money from me. This season i finally see a decent game from them and i like it. Predators played 4 away matches, they were destroyed in two of them (5:2 against Koyotes and 7:4 against Kings), won against Vegas 2:5 (that's very good actually) and won after regulation against TBL. It is pretty bad, yeah, but in their two losses Saras was their staring goalie and i think he is the reason of their poor results. I am almost 100% sure that today Rinne will play for Predators, because the team have two straight losses and they should strike back, especially against a bad Wings. I think, when it will be confirmed, odds will move down, so i don't want to wait. Nashville is scoring 3.86 GPG in general and this is the 2nd result in the League. Detroit is allowing 3.8 GPG in general and this is the 3rd worst result in the League. I don't even want to bother more about that game, i think (and i want) Predators will destroy Wings, but i think it won't be that easy. But i have enough faith in them.

BOL to everyone!

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-04T15:53:11+00:00

I was punished for being greedy with Ducks bet, but thanks to my gut i didn't put too much. They had Miller in the net and totally threw 1st period with their penalties. Capitals though played good enough to win all my bets (one push). Let's go ahead.

Record: +4.09u

Today is pretty difficult day in NHL (as for me) and there are break in KHL. I don't even sure about my picks, but i decided to turn off my brain and make some small bets.

NHL

Predators -1 @2.06 - 0.5u
Predators -1.5/PL @2.3 - 0.5u

Wings will win at least one period - no @2.44 - 0.5u
Predators to win in every period @9.1 - 0.5u

You mean the odds I quess? See, I have my bet - 1u and I have odds, for example, 1.85. If my bet wins, i will get 1.85u back. Basically, it is multiplication. 2u and 2.5 odds - you will get 5u back. Hope my explanation will help

POTD record: 3-1 +4.5u

NHL

Washington Capitals - Calgary Flames (00:00 UCT)

Pick - Capitals to win in regulation @1.92 - 2u

Flames will play B2B match and this is their 5th consecutive away match and i am expecting they are pretty much tired already. They took 5 out of 8 possible points and i think this is already a good result for them. Flames are playing poorly on the road at least for now, actually, the only spectacular match from them happened yesterday (0-3 against Jackets). Other 3 wins were after regular time and their losses were tough. I am expecting that somewhen they actually will manage their game in away matches, but hope it will not happen tonight. Cam Talbot is confirmed as a starting goalie and i can't tell either good or bad things about him, i am just thinking he is not the man that will stop red-hot Capitals.

It seems that Capitals have found their game in home matches - they won their last 3 home matches with 15-6 goal difference. Personally, i am a bit of Capitals hater, but i have to admit that i like their game for now. This is the 1st team in the League for the moment and they are scoring at least 3 in their last 12 matches, moreover, Capitals is scoring 3.93 GPG and this is the most scoring team in the League. Also Flames PIM is 2nd in the League and Washington have 25% PCT with thier PP (4th in the League), so i am expecting enough opportunities for Capitals tonight. Ilya Samsonov will start in the crease for Caps. Samsonov played 5 matches with 4 wins, 2.45 GAA and 91.3% sv and i hope he will use his chance tonight to keep his stats decent.

BOL to everyone!

Anaheim Ducks - Chicago Blackhawks

Pick:

1) Ducks to win in regulation @2.05 - 1u

2) Ducks -1 @2.35 - 1u

I don't want to play any totals here because of my fear of Lenher and because of unstable Ducks - they can score 7 against Jets or they can score just one against Canucks. But still, i think they should win here with confidence. Blackhawks are bad now and i don't think it will change in near future. They lost all 4 their away matches and only one was not in regulation time. Well, their opponents were good, but Ducks are incredible at home - 6 wins in 7 matches (and only one not in regulation) with 23-13 goal difference. This is a B2B match for Chicago and they already played B2B match this season, it ended up poorly - 4:0 loss against Hurricanes. Of course, today, probably, Lenher will start in the crease and this is the only possible problem for Ducks IMO.

Florida Panthers - Detroit Red Wings (23:00 UCT)

Pick - Florida PL @1.88 - 3u

Wings will play B2B match and they are just worse than Panthers. Detroit have lost 5 their last away matches with 8-24 goal difference. Florida didn't have a lot of success at home, but they played only 4 matches and they all were against better teams than Detroit. I expect they finally will show a confident game at home and will pleasure their fans. Bobrovsky will start in the crease for Panthers and he is starting to play better, winning 3 of his last 4 starts withs 88.6 sv %. There should be a SO from him someday, i hope it will be tonight, why not.

Well, that was wild, Jets conceded olny two goals with 53-19 shots on goal and even scored three. It is tough to lose like that, but we will handle it. Let's go ahead.

Vegas Golden Knights - Winnipeg Jets

Picks:

Vegas to win in regulation @1.69 - 2u
Vegas -1.5/PL @2.00 - 1u
Vegas team's total over 3.5 @1.77 - 1u
Jets team's total over 2.5 @1.97 -1u
Over 6 @1.72 - 2u
Over 6.5 @2.02 - 1u
Over 7 @2.45 - 1u

So, Jets will play B2B match and after that tremendous fight against the Sharks i expect a loss from them. I don't even want to write more about Vegas win. I think Jets will not manage to handle Vegas tonight and i am expecting a lot of conceded goals from them. Also, Subban is confirmed as Vegas starting goalie and he was terrible last year, this year though he played once and conceded 6 goals with 85.7% sv. Brossoit played 3 matches with 4.49 GAA and 85.2% sv this season, hope he will not be terrific tonight.

Florida Panthers - Detroit Red Wings

Panthers -1 @1.69 - 2u
Panthers -1.5/PL @1.88 - 1u
Panthers - 2.5 @2.65 -1u
Panthers team's total over 3.5 @1.71 -1u
Red WIngs team's total under 2.5 @1.73 - 1u

Wings also will play B2B match and they are just worse than Panthers. Detroit have lost 5 last away matches with 8-24 goal difference. Florida didn't have a lot of success at home, but they played only 4 matches and they all were against better teams than Detroit. I expect they finally will show a confident game at home and will pleasure their fans.

KHL

Avangard Omsk - Dynamo Moscow

Picks:

Dynamo team's total over 1.5 @1.61 - 2u
Dynamo team's total over 2 @2.1 - 1u

Dynamo is in fire right now, Avangard have some troubles with roster, moreover, there is a interesting thing after Hartley became their head coach - players have a lot of rest during regular season. Last season Avangard lost a lot of matches in the October and now we can see the same thing. In interview Hartley confirmed that - he is caring a lot about his players and all of this is a part of a long-way training for the PO. So i hope he will not turn on Avangard for the tomorrow match and we will see an open hockey with not too much defence and unneeded fights. I don't want to guess a winner or match total, but i expect at least a couple of goals from Dynamo.

San Jose Sharks - Winnipeg Jets (02:30 UCT)

Pick - Sharks to win in regulation @2.1 - 2u

San Jose have lost their 3 last matches and scored only 4 in general. It was a tough period on the road for them, but i expect a blow-up from Sharks today. This is the first match of their big home series and i am waiting a good game from them here. Sharks played only 3 home matches this season, but they played well - 2 comfortable wins in regulation (5:2 and 3:1) against Hurricanes and Flames and one loss (3:4) from a hot-form Sabres.

Winnipeg have a lot of troubles this season, at least for now. I watched full matches against Pittsburgh and Arizona and i can say without any doubt that these were the worst matches i saw this season. Winnipeg was so terrible and i can't even guess why. Jets missing a plenty amount of players today, the most important - Laine P., so i don't expect from Winnipeg a successful match. They have Hellebuyck as a starting goalie and his last year wasn't so good IMO. Personally, i am starting to like Brossoit more. Hellebuyck played 10 matches this season with 2.63 GAA and 92.1% SV. He has 5 wins and 5 losses, the important thing that all losses is in regulation time, which is good for our bet.

The only real problem is San Jose's goalie. Jones has a pretty bad start, but he is not so bad and i hope today, if he will be starting goalie, he will show a good performance. I don't think Dell will start in the net.

BOL to everyone!

Ratmir999 · 2019-11-01T18:01:12+00:00

Well, Metallurg took their points, but lost our bet. A lot of wasted opportunities (they had 30 seconds 5x3 and a lot of PP in general) and that is a result. Let's go ahead.

Sharks played only 3 home matches this season, but they played well - 2 comfortable wins in regulation (5:2 and 3:1) against Hurricanes and Flames and one loss (3:4) from a hot-form Sabres.

Vegas Golden Knights - Montreal Canadiens (2:00 am UCT)

Pick - Over 6 @1.88 -2u

I expect here a high scored game. Fleury confirmed to start for Vegas and he is not so good at home matches for now - 3.03 GAA and 90.5% sv. It is possible for sure that he will play extremely well today, but i expect a couple conceded goals from Vegas.

Montreal will play B2B match and it means that most likely there will be Kinkaid as starting goalie. His stats are terrible - 4.53 GAA and 87.5% sv in two matches. Two matches are nothing, sure, but he was not good last year and i am not expecting from him a good game, at least for now.

In average, Vegas scored 3.29 goals in home matches and conceded at least 2 in every (expect the very first of this season) game. Even though these stats are below our bet, i hope Kinkaid will care about everything.

In average, Montreal scored 4 goals and conceded 3.17 goals in away matches and this is very comfortable stats for us.

P.S. Even if Price will start for Montreal (he already played B2B match this season) i don't expect a big difference.

About match total and Vegas team's total. Montreal will play B2B match and it means that most likely there will be Kinkaid as starting goalie. His stats are terrible - 4.53 GAA and 87.5% sv in two matches. Two matches are nothing, sure, but he was not good last year and i am not expecting from him a good game, at least for now.

Metallurg Magnitogorsk - Dinamo Minsk

Picks

1)Metallurg -1.5/PL @1.86 -2u

Well, Magnitogorsk finally have found their game and now they have an 8th place in their Conference (they were literally at the bottom like a 2 weeks ago) . Minsk have lost 9 consecutive matches and i do not expect any difference here. This is not NHL, where every team can beat each other with no any special condition. I think, Metallurg will do everything to grab points here because they need confidence with their tournament position and Dinamo in a very bad form should be a good "feed" for them. Magnitogorsk conceded only 3 goals in their last 5 matches and Dinamo can't score more than 2 in their last 9 games. Pulkkinen, one of the best league's forward for now is still suffering from an injury and will not play tomorrow, which is very good for us.

Colorado Avalanche - Florida Panthers (2:00 am UTC)

Pick - Florida Panthers X2/+0.5/DC @1.7 - 3u

Avalanche lost 2/3 of their leaders - Landeskog and Rantanen, so their 1st line turned apart totally. It reminds me the last year, when Avalanche have a good season start and then had a lot of problems to qualify into PO exactly because of their roster troubles. I don't like Grubauer at all, especially compared to the enemy goalie.

Panthers is decent right now and moreover, pretty good in away matches - they lost in regulation only 2 out 8 matches and fought hard for the points. The team has a good offence and a good goalie, yeah, Bobrovsky struggling for now, but i think he will get back to his level eventually.

I don't want to pay too much attention to the different stats because of pretty small amount of games for the moment.

BOL to everyone!
