Understanding Public and Money

Think of 'Public' as the percentage of people betting on each side and 'Money' as how much money is being bet. When there's a big difference between the 'Public' and 'Money' data, it usually means that the more serious bettors (referred to as 'Sharp Money') are favoring a particular side.

Matt's Analysis:

We are having a feed issue with our +1 NHL book (BetRivers), or I probably would play that at -155 just to save 45 cents -- although obviously here you would win a one-goal loss. I thought Game 1 would be something like that, but definitely not (statistically it wasn't really lopsided). I tend to think the Stars win tonight, even on an eight-game skid, because if they don't they would have to win at least two of three visits to Denver to win the series. As the bad guy said to get the original Taken moving going: "Good Luck." Sadly, I don't have a very particular set of skills unless ramen consumption counts.

Todd's Analysis:

Don't be fooled by the 5-1 scoreline from Game 1. Dallas held their own against the favored Avalanche but fell victim to a few difficult bounces that forced them to chase the game. Full disclosure, I do think the Avs win this series however the price today warrants a bet on Dallas. Yes, the Stars are still playing without Miro Heiskanen and Jason Robertson, that's why Dallas is a decent home dog. I see value in the dog given series effects at +110 or better so please shop around as I even see some +130 at time of posting.

Jimmie's Analysis:

Nathan MacKinnon is electric, and was outstanding in Game 1, compiling 3 points (2 goals, 1 assist). I expect the reigning Hart Trophy winner to get more ice time during the postseason with Avs coach Jared Bednar shortening the bench. Dallas will be looking to avoid the dreaded 0-2 hole, but I still love this spot for MacKinnon -- especially at this price.

Jimmie's Analysis:

Same bet as Game 1 for me here. The puck line and the plus-money odds on the Avs are enticing, but I expect a tougher fight from Dallas in Game 2. That said, Colorado looks like the team to beat in the Western Conference. The Avs have the best forward (MacKinnon) and best defenseman (Makar) in the game right now, and they have finally solved their issues in net. I expect another strong performance from the Avalanche on the road on Monday, and I expect the series to head to Denver with Colorado holding a 2-0 lead.
