2007 NHL Playoffs Recap and Video Highlights - May 16th
2007-05-16 14:12:00 An o'fer yesterday, okay I didn't make a prediction but I lost the transmission on my car and it's gonna cost me $2k. So I'd say that was an o'fer. The Sabres are on the brink of elimination and I can now see them heading quietly to the golf course. It looks like they have a transmission problem too, they can't get into 4th gear.Tonights Game :Buffalo Sabres (0) at Ottawa Senators (3) : Ottawa has managed to do everything that they identified as required to win this series. The Sabres have not. Simple as that. Much like my Taurus' transmission, Buffalo can't find their top gear and it is going to cost them a shot at the Stanley Cup. Ottawa will probably lose tonights game, merely as a point of pride for the Sabres. But rest assured, I screwed this prediction up, Ottawa will win the series in 5 games but lost tonight at home to Buffalo.Last Nights Game :Detroit Red Wings 5 (2) at Anaheim Ducks 0 (1) : Wow, Tomas Holmstrom and the Wings completely dominated the Ducks last nigh...

2007 NHL Playoffs Recap and Video Highlights - May 14th
2007-05-14 14:51:00 1-1 last night. The Ducks were in control of the puck for much of this game but still needed a disputed goal in overtime to win and even up the series before heading home. The Sabres play game 3 tonight in Ottawa and unless they can scratch out a win their season is pretty much done. So much for the vaunted depth of the Sabres.Tonights Game :Buffalo Sabres (0) at Ottawa Senators (2) : The Sabres are deep behind the 8 ball tonight. Unless the Sabres win tonight they will be going home, forget the 7 game series that most experts (and me) predicted this could be a very short series. Ottawa is winning all of the important battles and dominating on special teams. Buffalo is 0-12 on the power play and has given up a short handed goal. In losing game 2 at home the Sabres squandered a 2-0 lead for the first time this season, including both regular and playoff games. Watch tonights game closely, if Buffalo doesn't dominate for significant stretches tonight they are going home early. I pick... More About: Video , Playoffs , Highlights , Recap , Light

2007-05-13 15:47:00 0-1 last night. Buffalo seems determined to make these playoffs as difficult as possible for themselves. Meanwhile, Ottawa is simply concentrating on doing what they need to do to win.Last Nights Game :Ottawa Senators 4 (2) at Buffalo Sabres 3 (0) : The Sabres took an early 2-0 lead in the first period but decided not to compete in the second and third periods to require a goal from Daniel Briere with 5.8 seconds left to send the game to overtime. Joe Corvo ended the game at 4:58 of the second overtime period with a skipping shot that fooled Ryan Miller. Buffalo simply hasn't managed to show up for an entire game.

2007 NHL Playoffs Recap and Predictions - May 10th
2007-05-10 14:02:00 Ottawa wants revenge, but so does Buffalo. This could very likely be the best series of the 2007 NHL Playoffs . Both the Senators and the Sabres play a wide open counterattack style of hockey which could produce a high scoring (or at least high chancing) series. I'm looking forward to this one. Even if Ottawa has a good chance to screw up my predictions.Ottawa Senators (4) at Buffalo Sabres (1) :The series opens tonight in Buffalo and the Sabres need to find a way to shut down Ottawa's top line of Dany Heatley, Daniel Alfredsson and Jason Spezza. If they can manage to limit Ottawa's top line in the scoring department over half of Ottawa's offence goes bye bye. Ottawa needs to forget the past and focus on this series. If the Heatley, Alfredsson and Spezza line can overcome the checking of Drury et al. the Sens have a good chance of knocking out Buffalo.

NHL Playoffs - Round 3 Previews and Predictions
2007-05-08 16:12:00 So Round 2 of the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs didn't go quite as I had envisioned it. I wrote a recap of each second round series below and a preview and predictions of the two third round series is below that. Oh, and the Buffalo Sabres win the Cup over the Anaheim Ducks in 7 games.Eastern Conference Recaps :Buffalo Sabres (1) vs New York Rangers (6): Despite a strong performance by the Rangers and a strangely lackluster performance by Buffalo this series ended up as expected. Buffalo wins in 6 games and Henrik Lundqvist gave the Rangers a chance to compete. Daniel Briere 1 goal, 5 assists. Chris Drury 3 goals, 2 assists, Tomas Vanek 3 goals. Vanek seemed to disappear a bit in the last 4 games of this series but Briere and Drury picked up the slack. Brian Campbell potted 1 goal and 2 assists and was a little disappointing offensively in round 2. I got this prediction dead right, Sabres in 6.New Jersey Devils (2) vs Ottawa Senators (4) :The Ottawa Senators didn't really surprise me ... More About: Predictions , Predict
