*Giving you winners and a break from your shitty job* Record: 23-18
Nobody Cares Now Recap:
I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH!!!!!! WOW. I am in shock. I had penciled this one as a lost with 8 minutes left in the third. Boy, was I wrong for that because by some miracle they were able to score 3 in 6 minutes. I stopped watching for what felt like was one second and then I turned around and it was 3-2. God bless that open netter. What a fucking win. I was already thinking about who to blame and if I it was going to be the Wild for being absolute pussies and benching their starters right after I placed the bet or the Blackhawks for being absolute imbeciles and losing a must lose game. Thankfully, I didn’t need to do that. Thank God. Another W. Avoided disaster. Now let’s string some together. You are fucking welcome.
Lock: Caroline Hurricanes -1.5 vs Detroit Red Wings
Groundbreaking Analysis:
Hurricanes need this one. Bad. They are about to choke the top seed in the metropolitan after losing three games in a row. The Devils are right behind them and by judging their regular season performances they would much rather keep the 1 seed and play the Panthers rather than play the Rangers in the first round. The Red Wings don’t need this at all. They should be trying to lose since they are out of the playoffs and winning now only hurts their draft spot. Not as pretty as the previous matchups I bet on this week but I still feel really great about it. The Hurricanes also play great at home. I love it. Give me another hockey cover. Please keep this pick in your thoughts and prayers.
