i just put it in too coach..seems reasonable....a disclaimer... you all have seen me betting on  the 1 Q over in the minn-wizard game and over 1 H, as well as twolves TT over 1H.... one thing i found was that as good as the twolves score 1 H, they only avg 49 ppg 2H...bear that in mind and thats why i didnt take FG over.

Thank you

StL -1/2 -135 BIG.  Blues are one of the top teams and coming off a loss to the red-hot Caps.  Sabres showed slight signs of life after getting their new coach, but the honeymoon ended quickly.  They are still the worst team in the league and no match for the Blues.

Baby....how are you able to place a "-1/2" wager which, in hockey, is the equivalent to the ML?

That's Regulation Coach.  You're playing one yourself tonight (Chic)...

All the books I've played with, including 5Dimes and my local, list it that way.  
Post them like that because I got tired of people asking me what REG means.
I don't care about the B's other than Under tonight.  
GL on your Hawks;  was going to play it but afraid Avs might decide to play well at home...

Looks like late last night you asked about parlaying my teases.  If you were serious, the answer is no.  There's no legit way to parlay teases.

if you can take the -1.5 puckline on the Oilers, it's worth a shot at +235

Hate to go against you guys, but I truly hate NYI/Tor FG over tonight.  Leafs just haven't been scoring worth a @#$% except for last game against feeble Buff.
But I can see why you like it if you look at Isles;  they play in some high-scoring shootouts.
So to kinda be there with you I'm playing an alternative....

NYI TT Over 2.5 -125 MEDIUM.

Hope we're both right.

Oilers, out of all their punterness, seem to do well against the Blue Jackets. 11 out of 16 of their wins are by greater than 2 points. they are 16-11 against these boys.

I suspected he was kidding me.  Henry seems too well schooled to be asking that for real, especially since a tease is really just a parlay with points.
