I can't blame anyone for taking the Red Wings. Hard to lay minus odds with a team that has not scored a goal in two games. And home ice may not make much of a difference at all.

Raiders did it ever dawn on you that those consensous sites books politely give to you are full of shit?

yeah - They are using 5 books. Watch line moves, the way each book moves, compare a couple of sites that give betting percentage. Watch the time of the moves, watch how long the number sits at a book, who's putting up openers, etc. Sooner or later it becomes very apparent to determine if it's sharp money or not.

I just like to throw out questions to see what others think at times.
