Plommers Olympic hockey thread

[Matty]

We look lost on the big ice. Fokkers are trying to play the NHL game on there.

Really ugly first period.

Common.

 

[Matty]

Much better in the 2nd, we're making plays and shooting instead of crashing the net.

You would figure that having a bit more room to move would make it easier for the Canadian players to find open ice since they are used to doing it on a smaller rink. I think that team Norway will start to tire out by the end of the 2nd and we will start to open it up. I could not bear to bet on this 1st game -4.5 is a but much to give away

I guess PK Subban is gonna be warming the bench a lot this Olympics. I haven't heard his name called yet. I guess possibly on the odd Power Play or Penalty Kill?

I guess they would tell the 7th and 8th D men that they may not play a lot before they make their decision to sign up or not.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal

 

[Matty]

Yeah I don't think Subban is going to play much, he's a bit of a unidimensional PP specialist right now.

Norway with 0 shots on goal so far in 2nd. Price will have his fold out chair open soon at the other end.

 

[plommer]

I think I'm done betting games before the puck drops. So many bets available live, It seems silly to bet pre-game.

 

[mrquincy]

Plommer, you are almost at 20k posts... if you were IAG, you would make that within the hour.

Canada +110 -3.5 In play @Ladbrokes.

 

[mrquincy]

+149 on Pinny

 

[plommer]

+149 on Pinny

Yeah, I just saw that. Pinny taking longer to put up a line.

-3.5 +149

 

[mrquincy]

Pinnacle is coy about starting a bit late and ending a bit early, then offering good odds, but for not very long.

 

[plommer]

got -3.5 +128 @ pinny, the +149 was gone by the time I tried to bet it.


+126 now and dropping.

 

[mrquincy]

Price... Sloppy.

 

[mrquincy]

Not looking promising... I should have figured...if I bet lately, I curse everyone who makes the same bet as me.

 

[plommer]

Thanks for the early 3rd period fluke goal Norway. That just ensured I will lose every bet I made on the game.

 

[mrquincy]

Price totally misplayed that plommer. Blame him for leaving the puck for Norway.
