NHL Picks Contest: Florida Panthers at Buffalo Sabres
It’s another round of the competition, and it’s another ugly selection. The Florida Panthers are fresh off a very impressive win against the Pittsburgh Penguins, but they’re tired from a back to back and on the road in Buffalo. The Sabres are floundering this season, but they’re a physical team with excellent goaltending. Vegas and I agree that this is a coin flip.
I lean to the Sabres here, personally, but the computer disagrees. As such, this game does not fit any systems in the Z-Code VIP Club. That, of course, is ...
NHL Picks Contest ($100 Prize) Round 11: Florida Panthers at Buffalo Sabres
I got a little bit of a thrill from watching the struggles you guys had to decide between two struggling teams in the last round, so I thought I’d do it again. The Panthers are playing better of late, but the Sabres, anchored in goaltending and physicality, should give them a game on home ice. Changes in the front office may have turned them around, but the Panthers appear to have more talent. This should be a good one.

NHL Picks: Contest Game – New York Islanders at Florida Panthers
I angered some people with my “two bad teams” comment in the picks game, and it looks like the Islanders responded as well. They’ve won four in a row, but they’re on the road against a streaky Panthers team.
Florida has a goalie who can win games for them in Tim Thomas. He’s a tough guy to win against, and the Panthers have been steady lately.
The Islanders are on fire. Offensively, everything is clicking. They can still be a liability defensively, but the way they’re scoring it doesn’t ...
NHL Picks Contest Round Ten ($100 Prize): New York Islanders at Florida Panthers
It’s funny, but I think the most difficult game to predict this Tuesday is between two pretty bad teams. The Panthers aren’t far removed from the playoffs and went out and got a pretty decent goalie in Tim Thomas, but they’ve struggled most of the year. The New York Islanders, in perhaps even more disappointing fashion, traded for Thomas Vanek only to sputter into the depths of the Metropolitan Division. Bad teams lend to volatility, and I really like this game as a contest pick…

NHL Picks and Predictions: Chicago Blackhawks at Florida Panthers
Okay, maybe it’s crazy to follow me when my heart is involved. I don’t know how the Devils won the last game we featured, but I’ll take a 4-0 romp out of those New York jerks any day. Sorry, just had to relish that moment one more time before getting into this pick:
Z-Code and I love the BLackhawks. They’re consistent, they’re fundamentally sound, they’re well coached, they’re deep, and they win.
I do fear the upset on the road against the Florida Panthers. This is a decent team, not far ...
NHL Picks and Predictions – Florida Panthers at New Jersey Devils
One of my greatest hockey memories came last season… Game Seven, double overtime, first round of the playoffs. Thousands of dollars on the line, a beautiful girl beside me, in Florida at the game in enemy territory when Adam Henrique buried the game winning goal, pushing the Devils through the first round and ultimately to the Stanley Cup.
Martin Brodeur has 665 wins. This could be historic win number 666 – the Devils’ number, and the Devils’ goalie. I don’t think mere Panthers, struggling this year and banged up considerably, ...
Number Ten
Recap: Easy win yesterday as Pittsburgh deletes a 4-1 deficit in the third period. In case you missed, Pens tied it with six seconds left and Fleury stones Kessel in a shootout. It might be fair to say that Crosby’s absence was a helping factor in a valiant team effort with some heavily celebrated goals. Crosby did have a tendency to get in the team’s way.
That means we are now in positive profit and also back at a .500 record, going for a winning one. The theory that all teams would be at their best seems ...
Nice to see everyone again. We are back in action for the big Saturday of games! Good night to take off last night as there was some unpredictable action, including a 5-4 SO come backer by Pittsburgh. As for our trends, we are coming straight off celebrating a Turkey. It was a last second shootout spin-o-rama, but we’ll take it. All we can say is, way to go three in a row!
Plenty of games to choose from. Because of the numerous match ups we’re going to put our record on the line and make two selections. One of the ...
