- Check the final injury and availability reports for Colorado Avalanche and New Jersey Devils close to the start.
- Check the confirmed starting goalie, which is often announced on game day and moves totals.
- Look at line combinations and power-play units before trusting a shots or points number.
- Convert any price you are offered to a break-even probability and compare it with your own estimate.
- Write down your reason before you place anything, and decide your unit size in advance.
