I think the best game for tonight is the L.A. Kings and Tampa match up. After the Tampa owner let the team have it following the all star break, they've been working extra hard especially at home. The super cold Kings are falling down the standings while Tampa is finally moving towards third and fighting for a playoff bid. Tampa should be able to win this smoothly in regulation as far as I can predict. Please forgive the use of "lock", I know it's pretty subjective.
Here's a link to a youtube video. It's basically a shameless effort by me to get views. Line.com has been good to me so hopefully I don't cross any boundaries. Wanted to do it because I figure some of you guys will find it worthwhile or at least entertaining :D
The problem I see is that Roloson is starting and he has allowed less than 3 goals only once in his last 12 starts. Then on the other side you have quick who has allowed more than 2 goals only 4 out of his last 19 games and hasnt allowed more than 2 in 7 straight road games.
That is an incredible disparity in goaltending and even though the lightning have won 6 of their last 7 roloson was only in net for one of them and allowed 3 goals. Before that game lightning had lost roloson's last 7 starts thus him losing the starting job. Also lets keep in mind that even though the lightning have been scoring at a nice clip during this hot streak they have faced only one goaltender even remotely comparable to quick and that was Tim Thomas in the middle of a "funk" for him. In fact the only hot goalie( similar to the zone quick is in now) they faced was lehtonen and they only scored twice on him.
I probably will not be betting this game but I only see one bet here and that is the kings. No way I would touch the lightning when you aren't even getting any decent underdog odds which I feel are in order in this spot.
Not too bad my G. just posted it to my Facebook page. who's the 1 asshole that disliked it. Audition for "the voice". ps. You look alot bigger in your posts then on video. I like tb-1.5 but when we both agree it don't work out too well
Haha Johnny just to clarify that's not my place in the vid. Not a comedian or pro golfer either but Thanks very much the views are really growing! I played for a band back in the day once in front of an entire school. Did a pop song for the views but will do some alternative or rock next time. Some girl at super bowl party said her friend is a producer for "the voice" maybe I can get an audition somehow. I tried out for American Idol years ago but didn't make it to the judges :(
Don't feel bad Cash. Looks like Tampa is a fail unless they somehow possibly come back late.
3 goals on 20 shots and actually allowed 3 on the first 12 shot attempts, time for rolo to sail into the sunset and say Bye to the NHL. I am going to look to selectively fade him, possibly on the -1 line if the juice is hefty the rest of this year
