Americans love to hate and Canadians hate that Americans

- 2006 Hockey Betting 101 - There
are a few ways to place a bet on a hockey game. By
far the most common way to wager on hockey is the
moneyline. Another is to bet on the total and the
third is on the puck line. All three are valid and
no one way is better than the other.

Colorado Avalanche picked up a highly-regarded goaltender

the story. By:

Hockey Picks - Is it
just a coincidence that 3 of the top 4 Handicappers
on the NHL leaderboard are Canadian? Not really. We
grow up on this game. Hockey Night in Canada and all

the great white north. SO no not at all.

November - Internet
NHL Gambling - There
aren't any changes in the NHL team power ratings from
last week, as the league's top teams continue their
strong play. I expect to see a shake-up soon though,
as overachieving teams like Montreal and Carolina
will begin to fall back to the rest of the pack.

November - 2005
NHL Gambling - In the
new-look NHL, power play opportunities have increased
dramatically. Combine that with the fact that overtime
games are now decided via the shootout and it's logical
to believe that good goaltending is more significant
then ever before.

Vegas NHL Gambling - The NHL is almost a month

Rookie Stats Report - The
Calder Trophy, named after former NHL President Frank
Calder, is awarded to the hockey player judged to
be the most proficient in his first season.
One would think that the top overall draft
pick would have an excellent shot at winning this
award each season.

2005 Online NHL Gambling - Gretzky's Impact -
Wayne Gretzky has been expected
to be a savior his entire life. At the age
of 14, Gretzky was expected to revolutionize the game

Under The Total - NHL Betting Trends - Several
years ago my attention was drawn to a comment made
on "Hockey night in Canada" by a former
player which got me thinking. The ex-player (Kelly
Hrudey) that the hardest role for any pro hockey player
was returning home from a long road trip. By:

NHL Hockey Preview - Who does not admire Wayne
Gretzky? That's what I thought-no show of hands. He
has his hands full this year as a rookie Coach with
a crappy d-line and mediocre goal tending. I think
the team to watch this year will be the Chicago Blackhawks.

the last 12 months the National Hockey League has
undergone as massive of an overhaul as any sports

August - 2005 - NHL Picks
- As the NHL playoffs have seen its Original Six
franchises depart in silent, Frasier-like fashion
(as opposed to a bleary-eyed, civilization-ending-as-we-know-it
Friendsification...), so too will pro hockey soon
go the way of roller derby and that stupid bouncy-trampoline-basketball
thing on SpikeTV. By: Vernon Croy

August - 2005 - NHL
Hockey Picks - At first it didn’t seem like
a big deal when they announced the NHL lockout sometime

by the October 13th regular season start date or somewhere
along that time frame. By: Vernon Croy
