Casey 145 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 I much prefer the Vegas odds. I like looking to those who have money at stake, not just air. 1 Hockeymom1960 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
egroen 384 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 If I gambled, I would put a lot of money on Chicago under-performing. Cup hangover is for real (some teams do not even make the playoffs after losing less players than Chicago) and only one key injury could hamstring them worse than multiple injuries did to Detroit last year. 2 55fan and hooon reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. They have looked pretty bad so far in preseason. If they sustain any injuries, or multiple injuries they will be so screwed. All of their top prospects are already plugged into the normal lineup, they literally do not have the cap space nor the talent to bring anyone up in case of injuries. Really curious to see how they deal with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 Remember that betting odds aren't just a prediction about how good a team is. Any fan or sports book knows it's a long season and anything can happen, so pre-season odds under around 10-1 means more than anything just that those teams can still get a lot of action that low.
