Just curious for those who do their own capping what are some good sites to use to get helpful stats?

Nice job on all the BOS plays today. Thank you for all your work every season and for posting your plays for everyone every day. You are truly a good guy.

Glad to see you hit, even if you were a big douche about posting the play.
Come on fellas, don't root for someone to fail. |

Not sure what the live line is at, but it may be a good move to bet WVU after the slow start, heating up now

Anyone have any good insight on this game?
I like WVU a lot, but not sure if they cover a 12 point spread. Just wondering what anyone around here thinks about this one |

Just curious who decided to take Pittsburgh today and why? Personally I see no value at all in taking the Pittsburgh side. They are 2 point FAVORITES.
I just don't see it. Someone please enlighten me |

Thanks tiptnk, I usually don't post either, but hopefully I may begin posting some more even if it is only in this one thread. Agreed, the majority of members of this forum are quality individuals, who are intelligent and passionate for the game, which is why I like it here. |

Sunday Picks:
Minn @ OTT (-130) Taking Ottawa at Home where they are 6-2-0. A matchup between two good goaltenders, Ottawa has won 4 out of the last 5 meetings (as well as 8 out of the last 10), with all 5 games being fairly low scoring, none of them having more than 5 goals. Ottawa's offense is currently ranked near the bottom of the league while Minnesota has only Given up 2.08 Goals per game, which ranks near the top. Because of this I'll also be taking the UNDER (5) in this game. Boston @ Colorado It looks like Rask isn't playing in this one so we've got McIntyre and Varlomov in net, both goaltenders haven't been that great this season, McIntyre is 0-2 on the season giving up 10 goals in those 2 starts, and Varlamov hasn't been much better with a 3-6-0 record and an .882 save percentage. Boston always seems to play well on the road, and Colorado is something like 3-8 in their last 11 home games. But personally, I don't trust McIntyre enough to get the job done. So I'm staying away from the ML, but I will take the OVER (5.5) which sits at +105 |

I've been following the forum here since last year, I think the NHL community on this site is great. Thank you everyone who posts useful information on here.
I've decided to start posting my plays and the reasoning for it for the season in this thread, hopefully I can help to contribute to this great community. Disclaimer: I'm a Pens fan from Pittsburgh, I try to be unbiased and most of my picks will probably be in the Eastern Conference since it is what I follow |

Love both plays. I'm a pirates fan and they have been just about as awful as any team could be over the past couple of weeks. Bailey usually pitches the bucs well. Cin home record scares me a bit but still think they win.

Personally, I'd like to see a daily thread dedicated to in depth discussions of pitching match ups and other useful information, I find no value in the threads on here where people post nothing but their plays with no reasoning,
Does anyone think a thread like that would work on here? Essentially just a thread dedicated to in depth discussions daily, somewhat similar to the $$$$ thread |

What happened to the daily $$$ thread? I haven't been around in a bit and am just curious what happened to it. If no one is creating one anymore I'd gladly take the responsibility.

Bubba's $$$$ Thread MONDAY- Post Your BEST Play (With Writeup) - 03.28.16

Fading them 1st period is a great play based on their recent 1st period performance, I'm considering playing it as well |

I don't know why any of you feel the need to bash someone who may have just lost everything he has.
It makes me ashamed to be associated with the covers community. Offer support. Don't call a man stupid after he just (potentially) lost his life savings. |

Bubba's $$$$ Thread MONDAY - Post Your BEST Play (With Writeup) - 03.14.16
in College Basketball Quote Originally Posted by Buctober: Not going to make this a money play but since it's been talked about, let's talk about that NJ vs. ANA game O/U.

Anaheim has some great offense but have scored just 3 goals in their last 3 games which looks bad but they were up against some great goaltenders. NJ has also scored just 8 goals in their last 4 games. All signs point to the under in this game. But I think that with Anaheim's offense and a Schneider-less Devils team the Over offers great value. I was spot on, with Kinkaid giving up 6 goals tonight before getting pulled, hopefully someone tailed this or I was able to stop someone from taking the under despite my poorly written reasoning |

I also grew up on Jagr in Pittsburgh in the 90's. He was my favorite player. Got to meet him in the locker room once, he gave me on of his sticks. He's a great guy, I always root for his success.

Pens always start afternoon games slow, and the fact that Zatkoff was in goal pretty much sealed the game from the start for me. An absolute awful back up goalie. Matt Murray will be the back up next year more than likely.
I disagree that they are stale cheese or that they can't play without Malkin. They can't play without Fleury, the defense is not very disciplined and it really shows when Fleury isn't between the pipes. |
