Playoffs 61-37, +90.66Units
Futures......
Sens to win the Cup +700 x1 (8 more wins
)
Series......
Ottawa to win -123 x3
Ottawa to win -114 x3
Anaheim to win -135 x3
Saturday??
I haven?t decided on the totals yet, but most likely will just play the sides and see how the scoring goes in G1 of both series. I expect the Ott line to go up while the Ana line to go down, but I played these 2 sides early just in case I get tied up tomorrow (hopefully by Mrs Dubber
)??
Ottawa -130 x2

Anaheim -120 x3
Pretty much the majority was waiting for Giggy to implode in the 1st round, then came the 2nd round, now we?re in the Conf Finals, and I?m gonna keep on riding this gravy train. Anaheim has not been the same team since January (34-16-2), and after the trades they got even better. Ana used to rely primarily on Kariya?s line for scoring in yr?s past, but not no more. They have 3 lines who all can score, as evidenced by the fact that the Ducks have 11 players who have between four and six points in the playoffs, led by Paul Kariya, Steve Thomas and Mike Leclerc, all of whom have six points. They have four players with three goals, Kariya, Steve Rucchin, Jason Krog and Stanislav Chistov, and four more with two, Thomas, Leclerc, Niedermayer and Adam Oates. Their 3rd line of Stumpy, Cheesy (Chistov) and Pahlson has been outstanding in the 1st 2 series. Their unsung hero, Steve Ruchin, the ?shadow guy? did a brilliant job quietly shutting down Fedorov and Modano in the 1st 2 series, and I expect him to draw Gaborik here and show dividends again. Anaheim hasn?t played since 5/5, and are 8-1 this yr on 3+ days rest, while Minny will be coming off of the biggest win of the franchise, playing 3rd in 4, 4th in 6, all the way up to 9th in 16days. This is a quote from Walz a few hrs after the Game7 victory: "I've got to admit, there was a lot more emotion in [the locker room] than we've ever shown, we're going to let our emotions go a little crazy.? Also a short turn-around time for Minny, since Game1 will be an early afternoon game. If Anaheim?s to steal a game from Minny and grab home ice, this game is it. FYI: Both team split the season series 2-2, each winning 1 on the road and at home. 3 of the 4 games ended in 1 goal differential.
Just as a reminder, in case you guys missed my post earlier. OVER THE LAST 5 YRS IN THE PLAYOFFS, 9 OUT OF 10 CONF FINALS STARTED 1-1. Something to keep in mind

AS ALWAYS, GOOD LUCK, EVERYONE!!!!!!
