Board 8 > Vote on my bets: Day 2 [nhl] [stop the hemorrhaging]

(+) Yeah! (+)

Day 1 here where I accidentally closed the topic early instead of just the poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/78070339

Which proved to be for the best, the Sabres were dominated, still miraculously forced OT then promptly lost there like they deserved to. The Browns also shit the bed. So, not great!

Continuing the chronicles of my donations to the city of Paradise, NV: I ran out of time to make a topic today but made a parlay bet that included the Islanders winning. They promptly lost 5-2.

Will the losses never end or can we turn this ship around? This is the penultimate day before final round Thursday, so if we can win Wednesday it would set up Thursday as a rubber match of sorts...

There are three games in the nhl Wednesday night, and I'm seeking redemption for today with a two team parlay, current lines as follows:

-Habs (-105) @ Sabres (-115)
-Devils (+105) @ Flyers (-125)
-Kings (+130) @ Canucks (-150)

That's the 2nd of a back to back for the Kings so going to steer clear of that entirely which gives us 8 permutations to work with. Great for a poll.

Please weigh your expansive hockey knowledge on which pair of teams has the best shot at winning & reflect as much in the poll!

@DoomTheGyarados no NFL here but tagging just in case.

@TheKnightOfNee also appreciate your opinion

@Emeraldegg I should have bet on the Canes instead of the Islanders...

Bump for the morning crew, looks like some variety so far, no consensus...

I am a casual nhl fan these days so no help here.

Yeah this, I follow the canes and that's about it, I know p much nothing about teams

i like the odds on -1.5 cardinals (+165)

Steering clear of MLB but appreciate the input gravy...

I thought he meant football lol

I like to think that wasnt Arizona... not to mention I wouldn't be around this weekend to collect on those winnings.

3 hours left for final votes, Canucks look locked in but Habs and Sabres are a toss up (almost like the game)

I'll be at the Canucks game so they're guaranteed to win

Sabres & Flyers
>_>

you shouldn't look at the score right now then

Canucks should have an easy time with a Kings team trying to play an up tempo style they are not yet accustomed to on the second game of a back to back.

Kings were already gassed by the third period yesterday.

Damn

I'm going to @ you in the next topic, what a brutalization. And that's in Atlanta too, rough...

Red: Canucks are def 1 of the 2. Looks like they'll join the Sabres... redemption for Day 1 ideally.

The Braves haven't won a playoff series since 2001. Speaking as a Braves fan, them choking in the first round was totally predictable.

Although maybe not this immediately.

Braves are the better team

And always a choker.

Broke my own rule - I saw some late Habs voters so while they technically won, they're starting Kinkaid so I cant.

Sabres/Canucks parlay is in for...a bundle. So let's cross our fingers here.

Thx to everyone who voted!
