go bruins!

i'm really excited that hockey is back, and it seems like the game is better than ever. the action has been really fast, and scoring is definitely up.

penguinfan - have you found the lines for the early season games to be off a bit as the sportsbooks adjust to the new rules? i would assume that this would be a great time to take advantage of over/unders as the books may not be really sure as to what the average scores are going to be.

The new rules and new lines the books are putting out are just as hard for handicappers as ever because we have to adjust as well.

Over/Under lines are the toughest right now as any game can open up at any time and put 3 goals on the board more than you expect. The better teams can still react to their opponent scoring and turn up the heat on them so sides are still the way to go. I have honestly only seen a handful of total plays that looked solid this year so far.
