winkyduck · Jan 21, 2004

olympic has:

pitt +.5 +320 OR +600 M/L
ott -.5 -400 or -800 M/L

has anyone ever seen a line like this? i know ott is probably the right side - but NO WAY ic ould lay that wood. maybe as part of a 2-teamer - but never by itself.

there have been a few lines like this this year...Pitt has already been a giant killer (NJ, OTT already this year), however I doubt it will happen again, last time Pitt won in Ottawa they were outshot something like 50-15....

If you like Ottawa best to lay 1.5 -165 (pinny) or ML -670

Look here.....

...I just played Pitt +2 goals -110 on the puckline. SportSavent is right about Pitt being giant killers this year.

Pitt always seems to play Ottawa tough. They are 3-2 ATS in Ottawa the past 3 years. 5-5 ATS the last 3 years in all games played.

Personally, I'd rather play the puckline instead of the spread or ML. I'll take a regular play with Pitt +2 goals.

If you can find + 2 -110 then I would also suggest Pitt is a strong play...the difference between 1.5 & 2 is very big...I live in Ottawa so my local will likely overexagerate this line so I will likely take Pitt aswell

Pitt always seem to play the good teams tough. They're 1-0-1 vs Ottawa this year and in between all the expected losses to Mon, LGI, etc, they have beaten NJ and Philly. At +600 or +2 (ugh - PL is a ripoff) why not put down a couple of bucks? Consider it a better than average lottery ticket.

Pitt has had several away games that have been -800, -700, etc. Crazy for a hockey game. Not even worth betting.

Has anybody kept track of Pitt over the last 7-8 weeks? I wouldn't be surprised if they've won money on the ML.

With 5 seconds left, Pens took a TO and set up a great play..Lalime was out of position and a slapshot with 1 second left hit the post or this game would have gone to OT. So it goes for the flightless birds..
