Normally I don't feel that there is enough data to pretend to try to handicap a game until the teams and preferably the starting goalies have several games behind them. No reason in my opinion to feel otherwise this year but look, the season is half over, so I will waive that rule for myself, and confess, I am an idiot.
Here are my picks:
Tampa +135
Florida + 135
New jersey -110
Colorado +105
Edmonton + 105
And to give credit where credit is due, I would not have funds to bet at all if it were not for Zac putting me in touch with a very (soon to be) rich widow.
Joking aside, thanks to you Lippsman for reinstituting what has become my favorite thread.
Lem, I'm afraid that rich widow is two timing you and me with a certain Cubano. The word is out that at least one, and maybe both of us, are scratching the broke ass after the recent football championship unpleasantness. And, that this Cubano is laughing and carrying on in an unseemly manner like unto a rich forty niner.
