anyone have some stats on this?

it would seem logical that 5 would hit more often than 3 and that 3 would hit more often than 4.

i would also think that greater than 5 is less likely than 5 and under.

so on a 10 game night you would expect under 50.5 more often than over ? and the more games there are would increase the odds of winning with the 5 goal average. any thoughts ?

basically, i'm betting on more 4's and Under than 6's and Over.

also, my thinking so far this year has been that teams look to previous cup winners to form a team and game plan. defense and goal tending has been the ruling factor of late, and this would skew the totals to the unders over last year. we watched a lot of goalie movement over the summer, and this, i would think, supports that theory.

thoughts?

I agree upto a point.

Look @ what Blues forwards are saying.

"More than offence .. defence is necessary .. NJ did it .. we need to do it also"

that's an interesting way for them to put it.
will have to watch a few more St. Louis games.

they could be an Over play more often than not.
