We have another game seven on our hands tonight between the Carolina Hurricanes and the defending champs the Washington Capitals.
It’s sure to be a great game, and like our previous NHL picks, this one also has a unique bet for us. Let’s dive in.
Finding our Pick
These two teams have also faced each other a total of ten times this year, four in the regular season and now six games in the playoffs.
Who wins is basically a toss up.
The Sharks managed to pull off a dramatic win last night, scoring four goals in the third period to tie it up and go to overtime.
The win or go home mentality that takes over in game seven is prone to wild swings, and this favors the over/under.
We took the over on six points in last nights game. Tonight we will stick with the over taking 5.5 total points.
At FanDuel it is paying out +105, meaning a $100 bet will pay out $105, or 105%.
This is a nice profit for a playoff matchup, especially when it’s tough to pick who will win the matchup. If we add points, it becomes too risky.
So taking the over/under is an easy pick and the game seven mentality leads to outsized scoring.
In the playoffs, these two teams, the Carolina Panthers and Washington Capitals, have gone to six points or more in four of the six games.
I expect it to happen once again.
To profitable bets,
