How is this an arb? You're just betting on New Jersey twice.

Don't like it. Elias got injured for NJ last game in whats said to be a pulled groin and they have been struggling putting up offense as it is with gionta out. 2/3 of the EGG line out not good. Carolina should win this game and if its close at the end an empty netter could push it into a 2 Goal lead causing both bets to lose.

isnt the only real profit in that gonna happen if new jersey wins by two goals? and how often do they do that?

Any time "Lose-lose" enters the equation, you need to stop using the word "arb".

Never do it. I have done it before and lost a grand.
