Wow – after the first three games, who would have expected a tight 1 goal game for the Oilers vs Kings in game 4? The Oilers now lead 3-1 and head back to Edmonton to likely wrap things up. The New York Rangers are the first time to progress to the next round, with a […]
Quite the day in the NHL, as both Tampa and the Islanders gave themselves lifelines yesterday. The Dallas Stars also pulled off an extremely impressive victory in Vegas, to breathe life into that series. And although I got grannied, it was worth it just to see the Leafs lose. Legit; what a pitiful performance from […]
Whew – what started out as a poor night for me turned into a mini-profitable night. Neither of the early games went over, and props to the Canucks for holding the Preds like that. Rangers/Caps had the goaltending that really helped and it was gutting that the Caps couldn’t get a goal in that third […]
Apologies for the delay in posting today. One of those days where I was just absolutely slammed with work from the get-go and couldn’t find the time to focus on NHL until now. Yesterday we saw the Panthers and Hurricanes take 3-0 leads in the series. I said yesterday that I kinda liked Tampa until […]
Well my first fears when I made the series prediction of the Stars winning is coming true – they have been unable to get that all-vital win and break that hoodoo, and it’s looking likely that they get sweeped. 1-1 with my bets yesterday. The Bruins fielded Swayman and got the W, and the Kings […]
Horrific news for Canucks fans, as Demko was out yesterday and potentially for the series. As soon as the news was out we updated our post to say not to take the Canucks bet, but will of course include the L in our stats because we didn’t make it goalie dependent. Thought the Canucks were […]
It was a battle, but the Leafs got that all-important first win in the series yesterday, at a nice 2.23 price, to tie the series up against the Boston Bruins. The Canes had a massive third period to beat the Islanders 5-3, and that’s got to be crushing for NYI. Scott called the Canes in […]
What a fantastic day of playoff hockey we had yesterday. The Avs/Jets went absolutely lights out, with a fantastic 7-6 victory for the Jets. I love playoff hockey because you think okay every game is gonna be like that, then watch the next game be like 0-0 at the end of regulation. The Capitals offense […]
The NHL playoffs are underway, and the referees weren’t sleeping when it came to screwing over the Leafs. They were out there conspiring from the get-go, as the Leafs got thumped 5-1 by the Bruins. I mean don’t get me wrong – quite a few crappy calls and non-calls in that game. But the Leafs […]
Welcome to the NHL playoffs. I’ve been waiting probably a month to write that. Boy, it feels good. After a profitable regular season, I’m looking forward to diving right into the NHL playoffs. But first, I want to quickly explain how we handle things for any new people reading. For each round, we skip Game […]
