EPISODE RECAP: Bad beats will always be a part of gambling, but this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast serves as a forewarning of NHL handicapping pitfalls before they can strike listeners. Calgary’s road-trip blues led to a sho’nuff 5-1 loss to the Ottawa Senators on Monday, and Brian’s cold shower on the Florida Panthers wasn’t all wet as the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Cats in OT. Betting big bucks on Buffalo is still bananas, and Brian and Cam’s criticism of the Sabres was underscored by a 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers on Tuesday. Pittsburgh and Philadelphia went over the Las Vegas total in a 5-2 Penguins win, further confirming the guys’ handicap of the fragile Flyers’ chances against NHL big-shots. The “tired” Hurricanes beat Nashville in a follow-up win and Minnesota was unexpectedly dismissed 5-1 by Vegas, but Brian’s call on Montreal’s latest game couldn’t have been more accurate, as the Canadians took out a winter’s worth of frustration on the visiting Sens with a 3-1 victory. Listen to this episode of The Hockey Betting Podcast.
