Never mind. I had not checked it out, but then I did.
Gotta laugh. There were quite a few long shot bets made on Vegas winning the Cup. $8800 return on a $50 bet is pretty good. Apparently a number of people bought bet tickets as souvenirs of Vegas' first season. Instead of a $50 T-shirt, I will buy a $50 bet - Vegas, gotta love it. Although one person put $400 at 300:1 odds. YIKES!! That is a $120,000 payout! Yeah the bookmakers, even though they have of course lowered the odds for new bets, are seriously hoping for a Vegas loss. HaHaHa.

Game 7 puck drops tonight! Some great stats on NHL Game 7s (from tsn.ca)
Looks like history favors the Capitals. Go Lightning! |

Game 7s are always interesting to me. There's an expectation of a highly competitive game, and both teams have everything to win or lose depending on the outcome. Home ice has been mostly irrelevant in this year's playoffs, but I'll be rooting for Tampa to make their home fans happy tonight.

Yes indeed, although my true blue Penguins' blood turns green as I type this; Congratulations to The Washington Capitals, Eastern Conference Champions.
The Caps certainly revealed that Nostradamus' reputation has nothing to fear from my prognosticating abilities. It seems pretty clear to me that the two most deserving teams will face off in what should be a great Stanley Cup Final. I'm not about to make a fool of myself again and try to predict a winner. I do know for sure though that the winner of this series will raise the Cup for the first time in their franchise history. Can't wait for the puck to drop!! VS

Woowee ! The Caps weathered the early storm and the Lightning fizzled out I'll be rooting for the Caps to win it

Yeah! I gotta think it gives the Caps just a little pause to know that they'll be facing the guy who was the difference maker in the second round series with the Pens last year. In addition there'll be plenty of old familiar former Pens faces (Neal, Perron, Engeland, Reaves in addition to Fleury) to bring back some bad memories.

Congratulations to Washington and Las Vegas. Still not thrilled to see Vegas in the finals, but there is no denying that their front office and coaching staff have been brilliant right from the start. I'll get over it if they do win it all, but I'd rather it's Ovechkin skating around with the Cup above his head.
