A Stanley Cup triumph is obviously about more than individual success but it’s been demonstrated over and over again a participant getting hot at the right time can help propel a team to the pinnacle of their National Hockey League mountain.
Last year, it was Logan Couture. He poured in a incredible 30 points to lead all skaters during the Sharks’ run all the way to Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals while his teammate Joe Pavelski paced the field in goals with 14.
Both of those amounts, however, were rather significant. The average number of points that the leading point-getter has earned because the team resumed play following the 2004-05 lockout is 26.45 while the average number of goals the leading goal scorer has earned since then is 12.7.
I don’t see many sweeps occurring in the initial round of a 2017 playoff bracket I’m projecting to be extremely aggressive. I think this competition leads to games that are extra and — you guessed it — more points and targets.
San Jose and Pittsburgh both played 24 games throughout their 2016 conquests and I could see that number climbing this year.If you’re like me and you see every second of NHL playoff hockey, you and your significant other might not see eye to eye on the total amount of face-time the both of you get during the postseason and that can result in some lonely nights. Fortunately, sportsbooks provide us a few extra props to bet on through Lord Stanley’s playoffs to boost that level of activity we’re getting (pun exceptionally intended).
BetOnline produced a list of OVER/UNDER props for your pleasure and I have picked a couple of them outside to have a better look at.
I see your point
