2/9 NHL Thoughts

Created an Algorithm and it seems to be working.
Record since 1/22/2024 18 - 10
5.0 Star - 6 - 4
4.5 Star - 5 - 2
4.0 star - 7 - 4

Had a bad stretch with games after the break. But it seems to have normalized.

I know his is pretty obvious, but here it is.

NYR and EDM are 5 star bets.

I do not like -1.5 in NYR. Maybe -1.5 in the EDM.

I do like the under in NYR, if you can get 6.5.

I'm interested in your algorithm.....Could you please include units won/loss along with the 18-10 record? Obviously, that is key when playing in the NHL.

Yes, I can get you some data.

I would say, this has been more about who not to bet than anything else. The first few days after the break really messed things up, but you would be up about 3 units at this time. This does not include any parlays or live bets.

I really use this tool for live bets. It seems 80% of the time, these teams will go down by a goal. When that happens I will place another bet with better odds.

Last night is a good example. Edmonton went down 0-1. So, I took them ML and Regulation Win/Draw for Live bets. Just in case they didn't cover the 1.5. It is always a good feeling when you are able to sweep!

I would also say, the Algo spits out an Underdog to win 20% of the time.
