So I understand if anyone can help, if it's labeled a gm 1 play you play one unit, if game 2 you play whatever it takes to recoup the gm 1 loss plus 1 unit, game 3, etc.? Is that right?

X I like the Sox over, but might be safer to take the Indians TT over if it's 4.5. They'll put up 6+ on Bucholz.

Cleveland will put up 6+ runs on Buchholz. Easily. Play that however you'd like.

Maybe next time you'll think twice about calling attention to yourself.

I see +145 here.
I can't help but look at all the underdog wins and all the road wins in these playoffs and lay a bet down on the Panthers. They are up 3-2, home advantage is not all that meaningful, and they are playing with house money. Just can't look a gift horse in the mouth.

I'm not sure how anyone can watch the Hawks and not come away with at least three conclusions:
1) They are loaded up front. They have skill, speed, finish and grit. 2) Their goalie is awful. Period. 3) They play terrible defense in their own zone. They give up way too much space, their d-men (even the two big names) get caught out of position way too often, etc. It's a lousy team defense. Now I've always maintained that it's hard to judge a goalie when his team plays lousy defense, but I think Crawford and Emery let up enough softies to know they stink. But I also think Chicago would be making a mistake if they didn't question the coach in lieu of such awful team defense, as well as the roster of d-men. They've got some big names and some quality younger guys, but they don't play anywhere near to their potential.

Target any thought to playing the Red Sox first 5 rather than full game? The bullpen is an abortion.

You apparently misread my post.

In no particular order:
Rinne
Quick Henrik Thomas Miller Price Halak Fleury (yeah, he's been terrible this series but still). I think this is about where I'd slot Schneider, either above or one spot below Rask. And this Mike Smith stuff is absurd...if we know anything we know you can't judge a goalie based on one truly full season and only 4 playoff games. I mean why the hell isn't Luongo on this list? |

I won't argue you have more talent than Phoenix, probably by a LOT. But Chicago is not a better "team" than Phoenix. Chicago's neutral and defensive zone defense is horrible, just horrible. The amount of space they give players in their zone is matched by few NHL teams, and their positioning and coverage is terrible. Worse yet, your goalie blows. These are two close to equal teams, and Phoenix has a huge edge in net.

The Bruins would most likely play the Pens in Round 2, which is obviously a bad matchup for anyone.
6:1 seems like fair odds to me. I'd have the Pens as favorites and then the Rangers, with the Bruins slightly behind them. If the B's are healthy and Thomas can get some rest they could easily be the team to beat, but right now Pitt just looks like they're running away. I'd be a lot more confident in your bet if the Bruins didn't line up to face Pitt in Round 2. You need more time for one of their key guys to get hurt, as they usually do.

And of course, you are correct. The play was not "reviewable", but apparently it is one the team of officials confer on. I think they got the call wrong, personally. But I do like the idea of using all the officials on the ice whenever helpful, it just so happens it probably isn't helpful in this case.

The rule book states the goalie can't be prevented from making a play on a puck in his crease. I think the problem here is whoever was in Toronto just assumed that any NHL-caliber goalie would have wanted to be further out in his crease, and thus the forward a full foot into the crease had stopped him. They simply gave Turco too much credit here, and it was a weird call. Actually read Kerry Fraser's explanation on TSN. That is obviously the better source on this topic.
