we like sabres tonight minus the one forty

that is a very expensive price to pay, you give Ottawa less than a 40% chance tonight?

I cant see tonights game, after the long layoff, as anything more than a coin flip. getting +130 or more on a coin flip is great value.

To me you take the sens or you pass the game from a Money Line standpoint.

NHL playoffs beat Ahmad Rashad in the tv ratings in the last ratings book.
should be a good series but not many in the USA care outside Sabre fans.

Only chance a cubs fan gets to use the word "beat" without adding "us again"

On the over and this shit better hit. I normally enjoy the NHL playoffs but this playoff season has been lame for some reason.

No underdogs. NBC is dreading the Anaheim-Ottawa potential matchup.

Their dream match would be Kings/Black Hawks-Rangers Final some year, their worst nightmare of Vancouver-Ottawa wont happen this year.

Even though last years Edmonton-Carolina series had some of the worst ratings in USA TV history I think this years final should beat those numbers.

Game 7 of the finals last year was not even the most watch show on tv that night losing out to summer reruns on other networks.

I think NHL center ice is the future of this league cant see them being on national TV anymore after the NBC deal ends.

Still most years NHL playoffs are better then the NBA but not this year golden state /dallas and SA /Phx has been some good stuff this year.

I don't normally watch the NHL (although I will be watching it a bit more next season for several reasons), but I believe that this series will be very explosive and exciting. Just look at what these two teams did during the regular season amongst each other, and you can only believe that we will see strikingly similar results in this series.

I thought Ottawa were up there with the favs to win the cup when I looked at the Stanley Cup Odds throughout the year? They are slight dogs in this series if I'm not mistaken.

They had the big brawl where the goalies fought so it should be good stuff if we see that type of brawling again

Unfortunately the US market don't care about the Canadian teams, unless it is Toronto or Montreal. They would want the Original 6 team (Detroit) vs a NY team (Buffalo).

They don't have to worry about that, Detroit will handle their business and get big nose Illitch another cup. Gotta tell my Mike Illitch story one day to you fellas.
