One game in and I’m already furious at myself for not being able to back Boston. A brutal result for the Panthers in what really seemed like a fairly even game. Ekblad with an absolute nightmare of a game. With it being such a big result, it’s going to make Game 2 very interesting. Bruins […]
A great start in the Hurricanes vs Rangers series with a fun game, and hopefully we see more of that. Those two teams are hopefully going to put up some bangers. BTW a quick note on that and advanced metrics; I saw someone earlier saying the Canes will win that one overall due to their […]
As is tradition, the Toronto Maple Leafs are eliminated from the Stanley Cup playoffs via a game 7. The Boston Bruins will now take on the Florida Panthers, with Game 1 tomorrow. That’s going to be an interesting one. I had a quick glance at the metrics last night, and gotta say if one team […]
The Vancouver Canucks wrapped the series up last night, with a big performance from Silovs who produced a shutout. Demko should be ready for the next series it is believed. The Golden Knights forced a game 7 in a tight win over the Stars. Speaking of game 7s, we have Leafs vs Bruins tonight. Like […]
The Toronto Maple Leafs have forced a Game 7 against the Boston Bruins, with a big 2-1 victory. The Bruins just couldn’t get going in that game with just 4 shots recorded at the halfway point. Leafs look like they’ve finally figured out how to handle the Bruins – by basically doing the exact same […]
The Edmonton Oilers move on to the next round of the NHL Playoffs. I said Oilers -1.5 was my favourite series bet, and that proved right. Bet big on it, so glad it came in without much of a sweat. Scott also profited big in that one as he took Oilers -2.5 at 3.50 odds. […]
The Toronto Maple Leafs, minus Matthews, were able to make it to Game 6 with a tight 2-1 win in OT. Swayman thwarted them quite a few times but Woll also stepped up big and helped them with the W. Interestingly, by the metrics it was probably the Leafs best offensive game. The Nashville Predators […]
The Florida Panthers move forward to the second round of the NHL playoffs, with a resounding offensive performance againt Tampa. That have the 2nd best offensive metrics so far in the playoffs in xGF with 3.94. A very hot offense and made more impressive by decidedly lower Corsi & Fenwick compared to other teams. Dallas […]
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 […]
