I'm holding my own, since I know nothing about hockey It's easier to bet on the homer without being a fan of the other team, I've been watching a bit of it and i like it.

sabres are going to cream the rangers. but i will wait a bit to bet on this one.

people said that last game too..

the sabres are a really good team, I'd be careful betting on this one, because the sabres really haven't been playing like themselves recently.

though game five is pretty much as big as game 7, so hopefully they show up to play tonight because if they don't, we'll probably see rangers/sens in eastern confrence finals.

i just looked at the stats, NYR are for real. but 3 players are doing it all for them. they can't keep it up for long....

it's true, but also no one would have ever thought that NYR was going to sweep Atlanta.

I didn't think sabres would lose even two in a row, but I do think you're right the chance of them losing three in a row are slim to none.

sometimes all it takes is one player. but Atlanta most certainly wasn't a true #3 seed.
