1000 chips on Detroit Red Wings over Boston Bruins.
200 chips on Toronto Maple Leafs over Tampa Bay Lightning.
5000 chips on Montreal Canadiens over Atlanta Thrashers.
1500 chips on Vancouver Canucks over New York Rangers.
10000 chips on Pittsburgh Penguins over Anaheim Ducks.
Good way to hone your skills.

I have the exact opposite bets of you, except I didn't bet on the Montreal game.

Yeah, exactly. it's a good way to make me better before I bet for actual money.

I was 50% yesterday, betting right on the Canucks and Sharks games, but losing with losses from the Caps and Bruins.

lol, well mines for the big money so hopefully I get them right.

The way I figure it is that I have a much better chance of winning a decent prize with these hockey tickets than I do if I was to play 6/49 or any of that crap.

On Sunday, Nov 1
I lost 500 chips betting on the Bruins to beat the Rangers.
I won 15,500 chips betting on the Sharks to beat the Hurricanes.
I lost 1500 chips betting on the Caps to beat the Jackets.
I won 1045 chips betting on the Canucks to beat the Avalanche.

That's pretty good.

It's the same way I feel. Spend $2 or $3 a night, it's like a soda, a chocolate bar, or a bingo ticket. It adds some fun to watching the games, and indeed a better chance at hitting a small payout than other lotteries. It has another advantage as well - think you know everything about hockey? Start betting on games - it will humble you quick

Yep, Budaj in net for Colorado means Phoenix should make a good bet.

How much is that bet paying?

You gotta admit though, shootout victories counting as a win is a real bonus on Proline

Yeah that's true, I would imagine that's the reason for the odds being more moderate here.
