Now if you end up puttering around in the ECHL and lose your university money - NCAA is the way to go for sure.
ie. Puck Bunnies.

I know we all like to thank Dim Jim for taking Juolevi and leaving Tkachuk, but if Columbus didn't take Dubois, Tkachuk would be a Greaser right now.

Hell of a period by Canada. The Czechs have barely touched the puck.

You think they are going to get pumped but you want odds? Something doesn't add up.

Definitely thought that Chabot deserved the player of the game for both sides.

You guys must be new to punting. He suggested the bet, I am keen to do it if somewhat reasonable.

Why would I bet with you 1:1 when I would get +150(likely more) with an online bookie? It's throwing money away. I'm definitely going to have a wager on the game and would be happy to take odds with you that are worse than the bookie, but not taking 1:1.

Strome is the Sean Monahan of Team Canada. I am thoroughly unimpressed.

Gotcha, so this is about maximizing your profits. Cool, so what odds did you get with your bookie and how much did you put down, given this is clearly easy money right?

you said they were "gonna get pumped"

I said wanna bet?

I am betting they are not gonna "get pumped" meaning you should be giving me goals. Should Canada win or lose a close one they didn't get pumped and you were WRONG

long story short you don't actually think they are gonna get pumped you are just trying to be contrary

Geez...calm down mate. I posted an opinion saying Canada will get pumped by Sweden(although I hope Canada wins). Dino suggests bet, I agree(I like gambling) and enquire as to reasonable odds.

For what it's worse I am going to have a bet on the game anyway(once odds are released, probably an hour), as when they go up Sweden will most likely be overs. This generally happens as a result of Canadian fans betting with their hearts. I suspect you will see the line decrease within 2-3 hours after it goes up.

Suggested bet $200 if line is > +150.

Happy to do that bet, too, if you are keen on adjusting the line!

Canada +2 start for +600 ?
