Take the over and collect the check! Let’s go Bruins!! 

 

 

I just do not bet hockey, but dang..Bovada has 71 bets you can make on this game!

they have the over 5 1/2..seems high for a game 7, but that is just based on gut feeling. Wonder what the research shows on totals in game 7's.

First time since football season bring the second TV down . Leafs and Raptors at the same time, that sucks for Toronto fans. 

 

Plus we have the Cav-Pacers on at the same time...hmm, might have to become my own sports bar and get a 3rd tv going tonight

 

Leafs are 99% of the alleged heart and soul of Toronto sports fans.  Especially a game 7.

 

And the Leafs are scrappy underdogs, unlike the gutless quitter kitties in the hoops jerseys.

Rask is worse at home and has something like a 880 save percentage in game 7. Anderson has been out of his mind I don’t see that holding up and the Bruins are do to hit a few less posts and a few more strings.

The only question is if the Bruins can score on Anderson from 50 feet out just flicking it towards the net.... they've done so a few times already

Marchand and Pasta are due. They will be flying around tonight. I have no idea who will win, I don’t trust Rask. He hasn’t seen the puck well the past few games he got lucky a few of them hit him directly in the pads. 

 

The Bruins D scares no one, Babcock has them taking advantage of Krug every time he is in the ice. Closer to 9 goals scored tonight than 6.

hope it's a good game, not decided cheap, overtime is always an awesome way to finish a game 7

so looks like 6 goals or more have been scored in 17 of 53 game 7's since 2006. Not sure if that is relevant or not, I am not sure to look up how many hit the over at say 5..but just some food for thought

 

Babcock plays Katy Bar the Door all the time, game 7's are like walking on eggs, nobody wants to be caught in a counter-attack

 

then again it might become wide open river hockey

Good stuff. I looked up a bunch of stuff from this series last night. 

 

All three games in Boston have gone over. A huge discrepancy in penalties called in Boston vs. in Toronto. Will they swallow the whistle in game 7? Sure that is possible.

 

Even if they do Rask is horrible in 7’s and IIRC Anderson was also under .900. Two choking pigs playing a must win, I can’t see this playing out as a clean 2-1 type of game.

I would think this is the way the Leafs would like it. It's their style. A grind it out physical game I don't think they can win that way.

Killing it with the stretch pass and eating the icings. It’s how they got back in the series I don’t see it stopping. Rask got hot at the end of the last game the leafs could have broken that one open.

Early Leafs goal and they'll try to rag and stall the last 57 minutes.

Crazy game. Patty coming through like I figured. Not over Leafs getting lots of open ice. Man, that Bruin defense is there to be exploited with a little speed. Good thing Chara has a long reach otherwise he would be nothing more than a pylon. I would be dumping it in on his side all the time. 

 

GO SHARKS!

(edit)I thought the over was done at end of first.but no way was I gonna jinx it for Commonsense. Not a good call on his part..A FRIGGEN GREAT CALL!

 

The bet done 3 minutes into the 2nd...that is freaking impressive!
