I'm hardly a hockey expert but the +190 offered on Tampa at
-1 1/2 seems like astonishing value.
Reasoning: home teams have won 9 of the last 10 Game 7 Stanley Cup title finals. That's a powerful trend.
Also, while visitors have dominated in this series, it must be a huge letdown for Calgary to lose in front of their home fans and have to fly across the continent.
Why lay the -1 1/2? I've noticed that in decisive games, the trailing team seems more aggressive about pulling its goalie. Even if it's a one goal margin late in the third period, Calgary could pull its goalie and give up an empty netter. In short, unless it's an overtime, if Tampa wins it's likely to be by more than one and you're getting nearly two-to-one if it happens. When it comes to hockey, I'm ignorant but I think I have a pretty good idea here.
