i dont think any of that means anything. you throw out everything when it comes to game 7. anything can happen in one game
And this is where I disagree, at least from a gambling perspective. While technically this is true, I am required to look at every factor, and the best way I see to make any money off this game is to pick Detroit to win by 2 or more goals...
It opened at -170 and has steadily moved down to around -190. The road team at +160 (opened at +150) or move the goal advantage back towards an even money bet? Right now, I'll take the even money bet or the under of 5 1/2 goals.
