Brutal? nah that b2b is where legends are made πŸ’ͺ i was at a game back in my minor hockey days where we played two nights straight and won both, you just know the boys can do it. Vegas + Colorado, backing them all day, then Buffalo walks into a BUZZSAW on the 15th πŸ’πŸ GO LEAFS GO πŸ”₯

That Vegas-Colorado b2b screams fade the second night for me, day trader habit is checking who's in goal before I touch a total 😭 I'll sprinkle C$20 on the Leafs ML in Vegas, sitting out Colorado.
The line moves β€” catch it.

My body is ready for that b2b, my therapist's calendar is not 🀣 dropping C$20 on my own sanity instead 🍿

Still learning this stuff, but 28th in the league and legends are made?? πŸ˜… Andy, don't laugh at my question β€” is "fade the second night" just betting against tired teams? πŸ™

Katie, yeah basically, fade = betting against. Bettors figure tired legs on night two, easy money the other way πŸ˜… tbh I'm with UpsetKing on this one. Everyone remembers we got shelled 299 times last season, nobody remembers the nights we showed up πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ Vegas first night, legs are fresh, crowd's neutral, that's winnable. Colorado scares me silly I won't lie 😱 but back-to-backs are just hockey, every team in this league grinds through em. And Buffalo at the ACC on the 15th?? opener crowd gonna be LOUD, barn shaking πŸ’ͺ we owe these fans after 28th place, no hiding on home ice. GO LEAFS GO πŸ”₯🍁

Thanks Ben πŸ™ so if tired legs is such a sure thing, why would anyone even bet the second night? doesn't that make it a trap? πŸ˜… still learning this

Gramps, honest answer? If tired legs was a sure thing, sportsbooks would go broke 🀣 that's exactly why it feels like a trap, everyone knows about the b2b so Vegas already prices it in. Real edge comes from stuff like which goalie starts night two or whether the Avs also played the night before. Me personally though? Heart says show up anyway πŸ”₯ our lot never make it easy but I'd rather lose sleep watching the boys get smoked in altitude than miss it. 299 goals against last season still gives me nightmares tbh... ah well, nowt to do but watch πŸ˜…

Honestly this makes me wonder though πŸ˜… if everyone already knows about the back-to-back and the odds are priced in, like Steve said... then maybe betting the Leafs night two isn't as dumb as it sounds? We finished 28th so expectations are low anyway, maybe the books overcorrect on tired legs. Don't laugh, but that's kind of how I understood it πŸ€”

Watched plenty of ugly b2bs in the old barns, and the teams you write off on paper usually bite you. Colorado that second night? Could go either way, honestly πŸ˜„
