IMHO NHL is easier to cap you can find value in lines more frequently, and there isn't a history of games being fixed. So there's that...
Like I said earlier, any dialogue you were hoping for would most likely come in the form of flaming. That's how the site works, it's like Disney for trolls. They can't contain their excitement.
Both. And you are somewhat correct in your assumption as well. One thing you will see on both twitter/forums is that whenever a capper generally goes on a hot streak, followers will tend to overload their bets and throw money management to the wind. Thus, you will see some people come in during in-game/post-game complaining that their bet lost and try to lay the blame on everyone else but themselves. However there are some cappers that have seriously gone under radar and you won't see 10-15 pg of nonsense by random people that started tailing.
I myself am not very knowledgeable about pucks as I am with other sports so I personally lurk around, read, and try to digest any information that I can going forward. I suppose people a.) are not sure if you wanted discussion in your picks thread b.) don't have any add'l info to offer c.) waiting to see and understand your methodology towards betting (ie: alt pucklines/parlays). The fact that you have stressed bankroll management and finding good hedging opportunities definitely shows a little more discipline than some of other cappers I've seen.
I generally enjoy betting on football the most, followed up by basketball, and baseball although it seems to be one of my most difficult sports. For myself, I see this a hobby rather than a means for income but I try my best to approach it with a business-oriented attitude by fixating on protecting the unit, finding good line values, and trying my best to remove emotions out of betting. One of the main reasons that I stay at TheRX is because I'm always finding that I'm learning new things from posters here if you dig and prod enough.
Flaming as in constructive criticism? Or just criticizism in general?. Maybe I haven't gotten it yet since I haven't yet lost?

Seems like it would impress more people if you just took a dog to win, instead of all these +2's
A winner is a winner is a winner...
Profit/units is all that counts.. Despite the heavy juice in his parlays, it's still a parlay and anything can happen.
He's still taking a risk.. sure they may be easier in theory to win, but they hurt alot more when they lose
