Yes Reload I do!
BU is the best team in the country. There will be no 4/1 upset (see Air Force yesterday over Michigan) here. Few weaknesses and their strength is defense. 5 NHL draft picks on the blue line and the 6th is a free agent, Matt Gilroy #97, and he is perhaps the best of the lot. They have made a B-/C+ goaltender Kieran Millan look a lot better than he is.
The weakness is this team gets a bit lazy at times and turns the switch on and off. Happened in the Hockey East Quarterfinals vs. Maine....hopefully the stage they're on will prevent that.
Both 5 Dimes and Bet Jamaica have moneylines only for these games and I suggest using them. I'd rather not lay the 1.5....BU will win, but I can see 4-3. They will get stronger as the tournament progresses.
BU -270 @ Five Dimes
Play 2 is Vermont over Air Force. Not going out a limb here. Hard to picture the Cadets catching lightning in a bottle 2 days in a row AND this is very underrated Catamount team. Rob Madore has really come on in goal and Viktor Stalberg and the human pest Peter Lenes are players to watch.
Too many weapons for VT. I'd like to say there is some momentum for Air Force, but they were outshot badly and just had one of those games. Atlantic Hockey will NOT be represented in the Frozen Four.
VERMONT -250 @ Five Dimes
Nice parlay opportunity too.
Was hoping you would check in, Rinkrat! THANKS!
:cheers
Compelling stuff. Good job by ESPN2/U to pick all of this up this season, even if we did have to wait through multiple OT's of a REGULAR SEASON lacrosse game.
Hey ESPN, you bump regular season for post season always. Sorry.
Remember that very well about 66 WFAN.
Barry Melrose and Bob Norton....I guess I should be thankful these games are on and shut up. Bob, first of all, it's this afternoon and not tonight. You're as lazy as van Riemsdyk of UNH. And it was not a "heavy upset". UNH was at their home away from home, where yes they've had trouble, but still.
And neither Melrose or Norton picked up on the UND bench pointing after the game....I paused the TIVO: UNH had too many men on the ice.
Oh well great game.
I parlayed those two with ND. BetJam has the best prices on this parlay.
Nice to see the Rodents lose to Air Force. what was the line on that?
Wager type : Straight Bet
Sport : College Hockey (Bemidji State vs Notre Dame - NCAA Men's Midwest Regional - Van Andel Arena, Grand Rapids, Michigan)
Selection : Bemidji State 3/28/2009 7:30 PM - (EST)
Money Line +360 for Game
I love the Frozen Four kick ass hockey
Bemidji up 2-0. Picked them in my bracket...should've put a couple of bucks on them. Think you have a winner there.
UVM/AF tied 1-1 14:54 to go.
Vermont and AF going to a 2nd OT!
I think Vermont should have had that goal at the end of the 1st OT. Replay inconclusive but it seemed like the puck made it in before being knocked away!
I agree inconclusive and since no goal call in ice, play stands.
Vermont trying to win with individual talent, Air Force playing like a team. UVM has to work the puck around better.
They're making this much more difficult than it should be. Even though he's a Harvard guy, Coach Kevin Sneddon will find a way to win this.
