You think betting companies who have invested hundreds of millions/billions across the industry for algorithms to set these lines are stupid? They have some of the most intelligent quants.
There's a reason they are the betting favorites and it's not because "Oilers fans" are betting down the line and there's a reason why they're projected to win 50+ games this season.
Whether they do or not, that's why the game is played. But to come out and say they are a top 10 team at best is just lying to yourselves. They're a top contender and it is what it is. |
Betting Favourites - only means that WAY too many people bet on the Oilers to win, despite the evidence.
The Oilers and Leafs are always way too high on "betting favourites" lists becasue of this reason.
