My gut reaction to tonight is under, under, under. Refs let the boys play, no one wants to take chances and be the goat, everyone plays it tight and defenses rule. I'm on the salami under 15.5 -105. Give me one 2-1 game and I should be golden.

Also agree with Feddz and at least one of these games go to OT.

was leaning this way too. Only thing that could screw it is half a dozen empty netters, since - "hey, we're down by 3 with 5 minutes to go - let's pull the goalie now!"

Roy plans on starting six skaters tonight.

In a perfect world, for me, all three games go to OT and I don't sweat the empty netters.

I'm racking my brain right now on deciding what to play in these games. Probably a sign that I need to lay off but I can't resist. :think2:

Flyers for value, Avs, and I have a series bet going on the Sharks so I'm sticking with them, but not betting the game. The odds favor home team and team that was up 3-0 in series big time. But the Sharks have made choking an art form.....

Anyone have historical records for game seven home and away teams?
I think playing ties on all 3 games has to be +EV. Wouldn't be a shock to see any or all go to ot.
Personally I'm probably leaning SJ and Min - no idea on NYR and Philly yet, although I think in this situation you're always supposed to take the better goalie, and in that case scottcarter picked all 3...
