Pine Barrens Mafia Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Philly wins and Jersey loses tonight. I'd MUCH rather the Sabres face the Cryers than the Devils.
Realist Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Several things can happen with tonights games. Buffalo can end up playing NJ, NY, or Philly. Buffalo plays Flyers if: Philly wins NY wins NJ Loses or Philly wins NY Loses NJ Wins Play the Devils if: NJ Wins NY Wins Philly Wins/Loses Play the Rangers if: NY Loses Philly Wins NJ Loses or NY Loses Philly Loses NJ Wins I didn't even get into Overtimes. Not worth the time to figure that out.
Mile High Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 No worries Joe. Bring em on. Lindy's got them ready for whatever. And remember speed kills, even the Devils.
Taro T Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Several things can happen with tonights games. Buffalo can end up playing NJ, NY, or Philly. 664507[/snapback] There are 27 possible outcomes. Sabres play NJ in 11 of them, Rangers in 9, and Flyers in 7. There's a thread about matchups on TSR. All potential outcomes are discussed in Post #10.
RayFinkle Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Philly wins and Jersey loses tonight. I'd MUCH rather the Sabres face the Cryers than the Devils. 664445[/snapback] I agree. Brodeur in the playoffs is something I'd rather not face.
Like A Mofo Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 I say bring on the Devil$... the way Devils fans are talking, Sabres would have ZERO chance anyway....so bring them on!!! As far as I am concerned...they have the experience, better goalie...better defense...Devils SHOULD win and WILL be the favorites...so ALL the pressure will be on the Devils and Devils fans like Ed

Rangers and Flyers both won 2 games against the other and 2 in OT/SO, so that is not why the Rangers get the edge over the Flyers. At 100 points, the Rangers have the edge over the Flyers with a better goal differential. At 101 points, the Flyers have the edge over the Rangers with 45 wins to 44. There are 11 scenarios that the Sabres face the Devils, 9 that they face the Rangers, and 7 that they face the Flyers.
eball Posted April 18, 2006 Posted April 18, 2006 Never underestimate the value of experienced playoff goaltending...facing either NY or Philly would be preferable to facing NJ and Brodeur. That said -- it doesn't friggin' matter. If you're going to win the Cup, you have to beat everybody.
