ajs510 122 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 If San Jose takes more than 5 games to dispatch the Wings, I'd be shocked. Link to post Share on other sites
strategy 4 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 If San Jose takes more than 5 games to dispatch the Wings, I'd be shocked.I will take that bet for $10, even money. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I will take that bet for $10, even money.I like some of that action as well..I see the series going at least 6...and Detroit can win Link to post Share on other sites
ajs510 122 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I'll take the bet from both of you on a 3-1, my favor. San Jose 4, Detroit 1 is my bet, but I'd also get paid off on San Jose 4, Detroit 0. Any of the other possible outcomes are winners for you. Link to post Share on other sites
fleung22 1 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I like some of that action as well..I see the series going at least 6...and Detroit can winI predicted Detroit vs. Vancouver for the West. No betting here though...everytime a Nucks fan makes a bet Vancouver ends up losing a game. I've got every jinx on my radar Link to post Share on other sites

SBriand 4 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 If San Jose takes more than 5 games to dispatch the Wings, I'd be shocked.As a life long Wings fan...okay maybe not lifelong but since I was 11 so 24 yrs, I agree with the above statement. Detroit does not match up well with SJ. SJ pushed us around all year. I think we only won a game against them and they schlacked us. I will be rooting for my boys in Red but I have no expectations to even see a game 5. Link to post Share on other sites

Calgary - Detroit was a much better matchup for the Wings, and they still needed 6 games to get the job done. San Jose is bigger, faster, stronger, and they roll 4 lines extremely proficiently. The SJ forwards should have a field day with Detroit's defense, the only X factor is Hasek in my opinion, since he has the ability to make that net extremely tiny when he's on top of his game.You're older than I am Steve? I thought we were about the same age or you were a bit younger (I'm 30). Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Direct opposite, San Jose - Anaheim for my money.This was my bet too with Buffalo - Ottawa in the east. Link to post Share on other sites
strategy 4 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah, you'll note that I haven't heard a word from Jeff or Serge about a bet now that they've had time to consider.I was at class. I'll take it at even money, but not so much at 3:1. San Jose is a sick hockey club and I'm pretty sure they'll win the series... I'm just not so sure it'll be over in five.

San Jose is a sick hockey club and I'm pretty sure they'll win the series... I'm just not so sure it'll be over in five.It's just not even worth doing at even money. Even if the hockey gods 100% guaranteed a San Jose victory, the implied odds are even money against me getting the number of games right (two scenarios I win, 2 I lose). With Detroit having a possibility of winning the series outright, 3-1 is the correct lay (2 scenarios that win for me, 6 that win for you). I'll drop down to 2.5-1 up to a $50 bet, but beyond that I'm just not interested, there'd be no point. Link to post Share on other sites

Even if I had bet on it, I would have been rooting for the Wings to get swept just the same. Link to post Share on other sites
pezeveng 207 Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 If it comes down to goaltending I would side with Hasek. Detroit has the veterens that know how to win so don't count them out. That being said a little birdie told me that there is some fighting going on in the dressing room, some veterens were not happy with the teams performance after game 4. Gruven have you heard anything about the fighting in the dressing room? Link to post Share on other sites
