NHL

Yesterday: +2.30

A great comeback by the Lightning helps me go 3-1 +2.30 last night. Vancouver did blow a third period lead and lost in a shootout, however, to prevent the four-game sweep. The blue matchup numbers went 3-1 as well. I forgot to mention LA qualified as well but you could have figured that out on your own since I give the parameters of what to look for: 7.4+ differential for road teams and 10.5+ for home teams. The current results are now 65-32 +29.63 units with a 31% ROI. New Jersey and Pittsburgh both qualify tonight but I'm passing on the Penguins because I have conflicting data.
