Hockey Betting – NHL Championship Weekend

 

Call the Las Vegas Golden Knights what you will, “a team of destiny, driven, a force to be reckoned with” but do not call them lucky. This team has proven to the world that it takes more than luck to win 51 games in their inaugural season. A lot of planning went a long ways for this team and that’s exactly what the Golden Knights did, they planned and planned well.

 

MG – Sports Handicappers Expecting a Windfall – Thanks to SCOTUS

 

George McPhee is a tough as nails GM and he brought the toughness with him to Las Vegas with a no-nonsense approach and it has worked. McPhee may not be the favorite NHL GM in the world but he is certainly respected. Now he has earned every seconds worth of respect around the league and going forward, he will be feared.

 

Now the Knight find themselves in a great position and the Jets are in a must win situation. Every handicapper nationwide from Vegas to New York, never gave the Golden Knights a chance in this series. The Knights have been counted out every step of the way this year and the have gone against the grain and proven everyone wrong.

 

The stats are stacked against the Jets. Since 1973 a 2-1 lead has been doomsday for the team trailing with an 87.5 percent failure rate. So in other words, don’t go down 2-1 in the Western Conference Finals because you are most likely going to lose the series. The team that goes up 3-1, goes on to win the series 90 percent of the time. The safe bet in this one is with Vegas. Now the Jets are not chumps and they will put up a fight but they’re going to have to do it in hostile territory.

 

The bookies are going mad with the Golden Knights and they have been all season long. Vegas stands to lose a fortune if the Knights pull this off. There has been no home advantage in this seasons NHL playoffs, the road teams are an astounding 38-35 but through it all, the Golden Knights have found a way with a 5-1 home ice record.

 

On the other side of the country is another battle going on between the Capitals and the lightning and this one has turned into an all-out slug fest One minute the Caps look dominate and the Lightning look human, the next minute the Lightning look unbeatable and Washington looks like they found out how to blow it in the playoffs yet again.

 

The Capitals must find some heart and they must stop being soft! These guys are the New York Knick and Charles Smith. They have opportunity after opportunity and can’t find a way.

 

Bettors Finding Balance Between NHL, MLB and NBA

 

The Lightning have been the better team all year long and although the Capitals hit their stride late in the season and really hit their stride in this year’s playoffs, it will be difficult for them to win this series. It certainly can be done, don’t count them out but it won’t be easy. The Lightning play fast and they play smart.

 

Find a top of the line sportsbook and find a great hockey bonus. There is certainly enough hockey left and the finals are going to be superior with whomever gets in. It’s a fantastic weekend for playoff hockey and a fantastic opportunity to beat the bookie.
