May 12th 2014

As previously mentioned, we'll be closing the book on NBA soon. Games are becoming impossible to predict and I'm not a fan of what I've seen in terms of reffing and how it affects the games. Might play a few spots here and there, but won't force anything.

Three Chases to start tonight, may add some individual plays later on, see a couple good spots. As for NHL, 2 sides here.

Chases:
Detroit Tigers ML (-106) 1u
Washington Nats ML (-121) 1u
Texas Rangers ML (-132) 1u

all three teams coming off a loss, Love the Matchups in all three cases.

NHL:
Boston ML (-120) 3u
Anaheim ML (-130) 3u

Boston has been the dominant team all series long and everyone expected a 7 game series. In my opinion, it shouldn't even have gotten to Game 6. They should have taken both at home as well as one on the road and ended it at home last game. Instead, they head back to Montreal. If the Habs manage to score the first goal, the trend still doesn't worry me. The Bruins will win this game and play harder as the game goes on. If it doesn't, fuck it, I'll double up on Game 7. Boston is moving on.

For Anaheim, they lost the 2 home games (albeit game 1 was in OT and they gave that one up with 7 seconds left in the 3rd, should've won it straight up) and have rallied and taken both on the road in LA. Home ice advantage means nothing in this series seeing as the two clubs are so close to eachother. I see the ducks taking this one and ending the series in LA. They are the better team. Only question mark is goaltending. Gibson was fantastic in his first start, but this doesn't mean he's invincible. He's a young goalie and if they stick with him, which they are, He'll have to forget about his first game and start fresh here again. We don't want him getting too confident after ONE NHL playoff win. It takes guts, skill and focus to win in the NHL. Hope this kid can show us more of that in tonights game.

Best of luck to everyone.
