| Congrats to Canadian Women's team Posted: 4/12/2007 12:24:13 PM | Some random comments after last night.....
- That overtime in the Dallas/Vancouver game was painful to watch. Not a whole lot of chances. Pretty boring hockey.
- That overtime in the San Jose/Nashville game was not painful to watch. Amazing hockey back and forth. Nice to see Nabby playing so well. Anyone know what happened with their goalie coach? Apparently he passed away that same day.
- Didn't really watch any highlights of the Ottawa or Anaheim games so I can't comment. | |

| Congrats to Canadian Women's team Posted: 4/12/2007 1:59:14 PM | Taken from the TSN story, regarding the Sharks goaltending coach: "Warren Strelow, a diabetic who had a stroke on Feb. 28, had been in poor health for several years after undergoing a kidney transplant. " Here's the link: http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=203737&hubname=nhl
Nabakov made some great saves in the OT period. As for Anaheim/Minny, if it wasn't for Backstrom it wouldn't have been close. I think I counted on one hand the good chances Minny had in the game.
Was still at work for the Pitt/Ottawa game. Had the computer tuned to the Pittsburgh radio feed, just to hear the announcer. He's classic. His comments after Pittsburgh goals have nothing whatsoever to do with hockey. It's hilarious. I can't remember what he said after Crosby's goal, but I laughed.
I hope TSN is broadcasting the Rangers/Thrashers series. I'm thinking that should be a high scoring affair. | |

| Game #1 Results: Posted: 4/12/2007 8:57:51 PM | What a pathetic display! I'm all too eager to put my title on the line as reigning Predictions Game Champ by following my heart instead of using common sense!
So I bombed night 2 of Game #1's. Not a single one correct! Need to switch up my strategy.
The results:
Vancouver 5 Dallas 4 (4OT) (from last night) Luongo - 72 saves! Ridiculous!
Detroit 4 - Calgary 1 New York Rangers 4 - Atlanta 3 New Jersey 5 - Tampa Bay 3 Buffalo 4 - New York Islanders 1
Chiefs takes a commanding lead by calling every game tonight correctly (1 point per game) plus 5 extra points for calling the correct score in the Buf/NYI game. Add a point for the Van/Dal game from last night . 10 points
Forever14 clutches to 2nd place with an impressive night as well, correctly calling the NYR/Atl game with correct scores (1+5) and correctly calling the Buff/NYI game (1 point). Add a point for the Van/Dal game. 8 points
Next up, Island Jokester with a great performance tonight! Called every game and got very close to calling the score on the NYR/Atl game. 4 points
Smack follows closely, correctly calling Buff & NJ for 2 points. Tied with 2 points is Korrosive, correctly calling Det (and almost the score) & Buff.
Bottom of the barrel is yours truly, picking up a single point in yesterday's Van/Dal game.
Including yesterday's games, we have:
Chiefs: 16 Forever14: 10 Island Jokester: 4 Smack: 3 Korrosive: 2 Riot:2
In the event of OT, a point is only awarded when it goes only to OT. If it goes to 2OT, 3OT, or 4OT, no point is awarded unless it is correctly guessed. Same with if one guesses 2OT, 3OT, or 4OT, and it only goes to OT, no point is awarded. If OT is guessed with correct score but it doesn't go to OT, one point is taken away. As always OT (2OT, 3OT, 4OT) is only awarded if the score is also correct. Confused yet anyone? | |

| Pathetic Posted: 4/12/2007 9:07:00 PM | | Just a sidenote, this city (being Calgary) is simply pathetic. I'm not just talking about the Flames and their dismal performance. I'm talking 10 cops on every block on 17th Avenue and for what? A pathetic 4-1 loss? What a waste of taxpayer's money! | |

| Hockey Posted: 4/13/2007 6:48:09 AM | This sport is way to difficult to predict. I never thought that the Hurricanes gonna win last year. So far these are mine.
BUF 4-0 over NYI NJ 4-2 over TB NYR 4-2 over ATL OTW 4-3 over PIT VAN 4-2 over DAL DET 4-2 over CAL SJ 4-1 over NASH ANH 4-2 over MINN
Hopefully, I am wrong & there are mad upsets. | |

| Hockey Posted: 4/13/2007 8:37:27 AM | hey Forever you forgot to predict Calg vs Detroit game hehe.
Here are my predictions.
Van 3 Dallas 2 Detroit 4 Calg 1 Nashville 3 SJ 2 Minn 2 anh 1
Sens 4 Pitt 3 Buffalo 3 Nyi 2 Nyr 2 Atl 1 TB 4 NJ 1
Go Canucks Go!!!! | |

| Hockey Posted: 4/13/2007 10:53:29 AM | I'll briefly post mine
Dallas 3 Vancouver 1 SJ 3 Nashville 4 Minnesota 0 Anaheim 3
Pittsburgh 4 Ottawa 2 NY Islanders 2 Buffalo 5 NY Rangers 4 Atlanta 5 (OT) Tampa 3 NJ 2 Calgary 2 Detroit 4 | |
|
| Hockey Posted: 4/13/2007 11:01:15 AM | Preds 4 Sharks 2...extremely tough to win first 2 on the road. Generally, after winning the first, the visiting team has a letdown because going into the series the mindset for the road team is always there to split the first two games. The Sharks will deny that at today's pres conference, but anyone who has ever played through such a situation knows otherwise.
Vancouver 4 Dallas 2...opposite situation here. Most agree that Vancouver was lucky to win Game 1 in front of their home fans. They will have to play a better game tonight and I think they will. Going into the fourth overtime period I was thinking to myself, will whoever loses this game be able to overcome? I don't think so.
Minny 3 Anaheim 1 (empty netter)...My brain says pick Anaheim but my gut says Minny. Going with my gut today. | |
|
| Hockey Posted: 4/13/2007 11:32:06 PM | Boy, am I ever sucking hardcore! What is wrong with me? Another zero for me tonight.
The results:
Nashville 5 - San Jose 2 Dallas 2 - Vancouver 0 Anaheim 3 - Minnesota 2
For those who guessed at the Cal/Det game, those guesses will carry over when they play.
Smack & Korrosive: 3 points a piece for guessing the correct winning teams.
Chiefs: 2 points for guessing two of the games right. Close one on the Nash/SJ score.
Forever14: 2 points as well.
Island Jokester: 1 point for the Nash/SJ game.
HockeyBabe: Gets on the board with 1 point for the Nash/SJ game.
Riot: 0
So here's where we stand:
Chiefs: 18 Forever14: 12 Smack: 6 Korrosive: 5 Island Jokester: 5 Riot: 2 HockeyBabe: 1
Will Chiefs keep his lead after this weekend? Will Forever14 put up a fight for first? Stay tuned!!! | |

| Saturday Results: Posted: 4/14/2007 10:54:27 PM | Finally, Riot gets some action! Yay!
Here's how they went:
Pittsburgh 4 - Ottawa 3 New York Rangers 2 - Atlanta 1 Tampa Bay 3 - New Jersey 2 New York Islanders 3 - Buffalo 2
Riot finally gets in on the action with 3 points (Pitt, TBay, and NYI wins) with an extra 5 points for getting the NYI/Buff score correct! Woo! Hoo! 8 points
Hockeybabe, I'm confused. I thought you did post your guesses for Saturday's game. In fact, you collected 7 points, 1 for the TBay win and 6 more for the NYR win and correct score to boot! I updated your guess for the Cal/Det game.
Korrosive also scores 7 points, 1 for the Pitt win and 6 for the TBay win and correct score.
Forever14 got 2 points for the Pitt & TBay wins.
Chiefs earned a single point for the NYR win.
Smack & Island Jokester strike out this time around. Sorry.
So, there was some movement on the board:
Chiefs: 19 Forever14: 14 Korrosive: 12 Riot: 10 Hockeybabe: 8 Smack: 6 Island Jokester: 5 | |
