Most of my sports betting is private, just placed some. [edit: *all* of my sports betting is private]
thought I would look at Bodog lines, the sort of thing I am unused to, and got a surprise. This changes as you look at it btw. But the Canadian line would seem to be the opposite of the moneyline [one is negative and one is positive] for the same bet. what the? I guess I don't understand what I am looking at?

the next time Dame Fortune toys with your heart, your soul and your wallet, raise your glass and praise her thus: “Thanks for nothing, you cold-hearted, evil, damnable, nefarious, low-life, malicious monster from Hell!” She is, after all, stone deaf. ... Arnold Snyder

I believe the "Canadian Line" is plus/minus 1.5 goals so basically they are saying it is going to be a 1 goal game and if you give the underdog 1.5 goals, they become the favorite.....I think.....

"mouse-over" gave some clue I finally realized, but still not clear. You have the best guess I think. The link doesnt connect to anything active at the moment. Thanks.

Yeah, I think the Canucks should be okay versus the Predators. We'll see. This town is about to get a little crazy...
I'm more interested in the Sharks/Wings match up, though. That should be a good series, though I'd prefer another 4-0 Wings sweep.

I am a Ducks fan, so will be watching from sidelines, but I think Wings will crush the Sharks.
Niemi will be exposed and the Sharks will again be left wondering how they would have done if they could just get some quality goaltending. The Zetterberg addition in round 2 is going to make the Wings way too much for the Sharks to handle. Wings in 5!

The caps should be able to win vs Tampa, which as great talent but no depth. One possible problem: tampa goalie is hot!
