I say 6-2 Jets. Postma gets 2 and Wright gets his first.

Thanks to my partner in crime moderating Big Slik Ric O for posting the JHF pick 'em poll. Real life sometimes gets in the way, don't you know.
Anyway,
The JHF Virtual Gaming Pool continues to pick winners. We're getting a better virtual return on our virtual bets than those poor suckers who bought virtual Apple shares six months ago.
Ottawa - $100 loss Boston - $ 50 gain ($100 bet at -200 odds) Washington - $155 gain ($100 bet at +155 odds) Pittsburgh - $124 gain ($100 bet at +124) Long Island - $69 gain ($100 bet at -145) Montreal - $63 gain ($100 bet at -160) Florida - $100 loss Tampa - $57 gain Florida - $70 gain
Thus we're up a virtual $388.
(For those following at home I've been tracking how we vote on the results of Jets games and calculating the net result for a $100 virtual bet).
JHF voters followed the herd and picked the Jets to beat the Panthers. The betting on vBookie went $5,052 on the Jets and $2,401 on Florida.
How will the Leafs game pay off? 5Dimes has the Jets as the -150 / +130 favourites.
Thus a winning $100 bet on the Jets pays $67 of profit while a winning bet on the Leafs pays $130 profit.
Who do you like?
(I'm taking the Leafs in regulation. The Jets didn't look strong enough against Florida and they're due for a loss at home. Plus the payoff on the Jets is a little low for my taste. Throw in the fact that Mark "The Beast" Scheifele won't be playing and I just don't see a Jets' victory. Recall - I break all ties.)

Leafs 4-1.
Sorry guys, but even though the Jets beat the Panthers, their play was awful. No Buff or Bogo, and Toby will continue to be the Achilles heel of this team.

Let's go Jets, I'm sure Deuce will be happy to be wrong. I would be de-f**king-lighted to be wrong. But I bet with my head, not with my heart and my head sees a Leafs team that's 4-1 on the road and a Jets team that has barely phoned it in for their last four games. m.

I believe the Leafs are going to fall apart for this game. They usually do about 10 games into a season, so I figure this is the game.
I'm sure the Jets will play well (I hope), but the real story will be how poor the Leafs play. I'm thinking something like 5 - 2 Jets.
May I suggest a "LOUNGO's BETTER" chant?
Maybe just a simple "Louuuuuuuu" will do?
Just throwing it out there.

Well it's clear that we failed to pick the winner tonight.

What I hate worse than losing is losing to the Leafs.
