I got money on the Caps winning tonight. Here we go Ovie.

 

I hope you didn't bet too much

[redsoxrules]

Pens up to a quick 2-0 start .

Crosby with another goal

 

 

EDIT : 4-0 now

 

keep going

[msubulldogs21]

lol Capitals

 

Talk about a no show

[redsoxrules]

5-0 now

 

score another 5 more

[rician blast]

Caps-Pens result shows how things can turn in a direction we're not expecting. LEt's hope the Bruins have a different fate...they're the better team, but ya never know.

 

If the Bruins play physical but clean and can avoid being pinned in their own zone 2-3 minutes at a time, they should win...got to solve the Canes forecheck a little better than games 2,3,4 and 6 where there were moments that scared the hell outta me.

[BoSox21]

Crosby is an absolute beast and he's giving the haters less and less to talk about, just imagine five years from now when this guy is 26, provided he doesn't get injured.

[redsoxrules]

Detroit is all over the ducks in the first but they only lead 1-0

[redsoxrules]

FINAL

 

Wings 4 Ducks 3

 

 

NEXT

[msubulldogs21]

I really wanted Anaheim to win, but deep down I knew there was no way they were beating the Wings. They really had a nice playoff run though, knocking off San Jose and pushing Detroit to the max.

[redsoxrules]

4 teams left

 

Wings VS Blackhawks

 

Canes VS Pens

 

predictions?

 

I'm going with the wings in 6 and the pens in 7

its going to be a re-peat of last years final

Too soon dude, too soon.

 

It'll be Pens/Wings again. Yawn.

[Keeper]

If I'm a betting man, my money is on the Wings. However, the Blackhawks are hot and well-rested. Still, I'd go with the Wings in 6 or 7.

[Keeper]

You know it's over when your third string goalie is in the net. Game 2 was the backbreaker for the Hawks. The way this game is going, Game 3's win was meaningless. Good season, boys, but a disappointing finish.

[redsoxrules]

the Pens swept the canes. what a lopsided series that was

[rician blast]

Caps players allegedly were dealt 'roids by a dealer in Fla....didn't I say Ovechroid was a juicer a month or two ago???? Yeah I know, total supposition on my part.

[Mr Crunchy]

I still like the wings to win it all with their 4 lines but they dont have 1 guy as good as crosby or the other stud..Its obvious the Bruins arent in that calibre yet and need at least 1 stud who they can count on to score religously, this has been and always has been the problem in Boston since Orr went off Bill Barbers knee back in early 75 and then off to Chicago...Ray Bourque was great, Neely was great but they werent superstars like these kids in Pitt are.

[redsoxrules]

Rematch of last years finals

I like my Wings to re-peat but this year will be closer and I expect a 7 game series

the wings are a bit banged up with lidstrom and datsyuk inured but I still think they pull it off

[TheKilo]

Pens in 6

[BoSox21]

I'd like to know more about the status of Datsyuk and Lidstrom but I'll say Pens in 7

[Mr Crunchy]

I like the wings here if Nick Lindstrom is playing, they are deeper too but those 2 studs in Pitt are playing like Ratelle and Gilbert...HA, lets see if anyone under 35 can tell me who they played for.

[Mr Crunchy]

May 30 1 PIT PENGUINS +1½-200 o5½-125 +140

5:05 PM 2 DET RED WINGS -1½+170 u5½+105 -160

 

This is for game 1, not the series but its telling me that Detroit is the favorite.

[redsoxrules]

Lidstrom will be ready for game 1

Datsyuk still uncertain

[Mr Crunchy]

NHL PLAYOFFS - STANLEY CUP SERIES PRICE

(BEST OF SEVEN)

May 30 81 PENGUINS SERIES +125

5:05 PM 82 RED WINGS SERIES -155

 

Detroit beat em 4-2 last year and this price on the underdog is small.

Is this like the 80s when the Islanders,at the end of their run beat up Edmonton only to get dumped like a prom night baby the following year which began Edmontons dominance?

I wish the price was higher on Pitt or Id take a pop at them,Detroit being too deep wins a couple of OT games and the series in 7.

Rod Gilbert was an Islander I believe

[Mr Crunchy]

Thats why you're a Baseball guru Jack, the State is right but the team isnt.

[msubulldogs21]

Pens in 6

 

That's what I'm going with.

[emily49]

I'm hoping the Pens win it this time, I'm not a big Wings fan.

 

So I'll say Pens in 7.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Wings take Game 1!

 

Wings in 7 bitches.

[rician blast]

WIngs just find a way to win. Last night at least two of the three goals were garbage goals, the third one was a nice play but occured on a fortunate bounce.

 

Lot of depth on that team...ridiculous depth.
