X I know that you are missing my point here...
NJ a big favorite for the series without home ice....
Game 1 is a pick. How is NJ going to win the series if they don't have home ice?
They will have to win at Carolina. But the books are telling us that they don't think NJ can win in Carolina today. If NJ is a -180 favorite for the series without home ice they would have to be a favorite at Carolina of say around -120/-130
Being a pick is telling me they don't think NJ can win there, at least today.
This was a great off line and most people bit at it with NJ...The books knew everybody would love NJ at a pick and the public took the bait...
I am interested to see what the game 2 line will be... By the series price NJ would have to be the favorite of -120/-130 if they are not and Carolina is favored then that tells me NJ is in trouble, Which is what I think anyway...
I see Carolina as being the deeper, bigger,faster, more skilled overall team...
Brodeur is the only advantage I see on NJ's side. Carolina will give ward the chance to win these games...
