I’m desperate.
Things haven’t gone well for me this first quarter of the season. Can’t pick a game to save my life.
I’ll try anything.
I’d try Barman’s ‘poodle pissing’ technique but I’m fresh out of poodles. I could try it myself but the aim isn’t what it used to be. In my prime I could write my name in the snow. Today, I’d just leave a wet spot on my Nikes.
Stick pins in my trusty Don Best Rotation Schedule? My luck and I’d put a hole in Morehead State.
Fade the BetJam consensus picks? At one time last year they were money in the bank…..they still are…if you go the other way.
I know a guy at work and he flips coins. No shit he really does. Without knowing the difference between a five hole and a asshole he hits hockey parlays! Yesterday he tells me he hit a two teamer with L.A. Kings and the over the night before. I handicap the game from every angle and know I’ve got the right sides with L.A. and the under. Kings lead Washington 2-1 with six minutes left. Four goals are scored the rest of the way including 2 empty netters in the last :40 seconds. After I inform him of this fact he does a jig like the Leprechaun on a Lucky Charms commercial. I think I hate this guy.
So it’s come to this. Piss on my sneakers, put holes in my schedule book, fade myself, or flip a coin.
How about none of the above. I’m keeping it simple. I’m going back what’s tried and true in the NHL. Back dogs.
It may be hard to make a case for some of these plays, so I’m not even going to try…except to state this one fact. Anybody can beat anybody in today’s NHL as long as you bring some effort. You don’t have to look any farther than last night for an example. Anaheim goes into St Louis and plays the Blues’ farm club. Seven regular players are out for St Louis and still the Blues outplayed Anaheim throughout. They wanted it more and it showed. It should have never went to overtime. Sorry Bushay for my “Pick of the Year”! Note to myself....don't ever let me utter that phrase again.
My HNIC plays for the day are……
Vancouver +130
NY Islanders +200
Phoenix +155
Boston +145
Calgary +130
Washington +170
You know what to do.....let the carnage begin.
