Tampa might be worth a shot since Ottawa struggled down the stretch.

ottawa hasn't had the best of luck in the playoffs in recent years. you might be right on this one ILL.

another one i was thinking about maybe was Edmonton.

IMO, the team most likely to advance is New Jersey. I don't understand at all why the Sabres are only -134, and agree that getting 4-1 with the defending champions against an unproven team led by an unproven goalie is pretty nice.

I'm betting the Sharks in every series as an outright bet.

Why? It's the same as an 1 unit outright bet on the Sharks, but leaves me with the possiblity of backing out whenever I want (I would probably back SJ in any series considering the prices except if they play DET).

it's going to be tough for nashville without sullivan and zidicly two key components of their power play unit and also without vokoun.

Anaheim Mighty Ducks +172 looks perty good to me too.

the thing that scares me about this series, is the slow down type tactics calgary will try and create.

bigdan i cant see how thye rangers arent value at over +200 ............i know 4devils won 11 str8 but alot of teams arent motivated in the last 10 or so games.......i think this line should -130 and can't come up with any reason for it to be more than -160
