New Jersey Devils to Miss Playoffs+870

FanDuel March 5. Has stand alone value (especially pending Hamilton news), but also would consider a slightly higher stake if you tailed Caps/Leafs/Devils to make playoffs parlay from early in the year.

*capitals presidents Trophy* available on bet365/dk. Having some issues with custom bets (app is hiding 2 Carbery bets, Scott Arniel and Rod x2, so tracking this way. If you have Carbery JA or caps division I would factor that into risk on this, but think +1000 is a good number either way

Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
Live bet the Capitals while down 3-2 to Vegas after two strong periods in what was their Cup-clinching win. This was my best moment as a hockey fan, but also a good example of the live betting situations that make the NHL so unique.
Most Heartbreaking Bet
Any player prop that has lost due to a scorekeeper error.
