I was just crunching some numbers. The Bruins have played 37 games so far this season. The Bruins have won 19 of their 37 games played this season by more than 1 goal. When you bet Boston -1.5 the odds are usually over 2 to 1 on any given game. If the Bruins continue to win at this rate they will make you some sort of a profit by the end of the season.

I probably won't bet that way either on EVERY game but I was mostly trying to make a point that the Boston Bruins are a wrecking ball of a team this year. They have only lost 4 hockey games since Nov. 1st and they have won 19 out of their 26 games so far this season by more than 1 goal. If I do bet on the Bruins at all it will be -1.5 that's for sure preferably when they are on home ice.
 
The Bruins have been an extremely streaky team this year. I cannot see this trend continuing and Matty had a point. The books will adjust to the Bruins dominance. Best thing to do is take every game on an individual basis.
 
One has to wonder how and when the bookies will adjust. Bruins are currently scoring 2 goals for every goal they allow. I dunno that there's a precedent.

Yeah what was say a Gretzky Oilers dominant team's gf/ga over a season? Or whoever is tops ever in modern times. This would interest me.

I thought of the books adjusting thing I just didn't say it which makes me as smart as Matty.
 
At first glance Van +1.5 looks good, but they are a west coast team and their body clocks are telling them its 10AM when the puck drops today.

I couldn't figure out an angle on this game other than having a small lean on the over 5.5 goals.
