2.62 payout for Lucic. 50 on it

I also picked the Zetterberg bet, his consistency as a monster in the playoffs is going strong. And I was considering that 1.74 bet for Chicago/Chicago but felt the 1.74 wasn't enough to risk it. Game 1's are always iffy.

P.s. Here's the hoping Vokoun chokes...soon I hope

Yes!

Got game one of Chi/Chi series bet.

Also have money on Lucic.

Come on Switzerland, hold on for the upset win. Have a parlay ticket with two upsets by USA (3.80) and Switzerland (2.70) today, US already beat Russia.

Not a bad way to wake up, too bad it was only a small wager of $50 on the upsets tho. Really didn't like the way Russia was playing especially losing to France earlier in the tourney. Swiss are playing well as a team too, top powerplay in the tourney and top goaltending save %.

They also just added a Krejci (1.57) vs Brassard (2.25) points prop. Liking Krejci

Wow... 7seven REALLY knows his hockey!

Wish I could log on to playnow.com at work and make bets based on his suggestions... :okay:

By the time I get home, it's usually too late!

should've seen 7seven's stock call on CAN a few years ago... it paid out much more than his playnow tickets :p

Eric Staal injured as Canada, Sweden scoreless after one

Quote:

Canada and Sweden are scoreless after one period of their IIHF World Hockey Championship quarter-final in Stockholm.

You can watch all the action live NOW on TSN and TSN Mobile TV, and you can listen live on TSN Radio 1050 Toronto and TSN.ca/Toronto.

Team Canada captain Eric Staal left the game with just over four minutes left in the first period after taking a knee-to-knee hit from Alexander Edler. Edler was penalized with a kneeing major and a game misconduct.

Staal lay on the ice in great pain for several minutes before being helped to the dressing room by two teammates.

Mike Smith of the Phoenix Coyotes is in goal for Canada, while Jhonas Enroth of the Buffalo Sabres is in net for the host Swedes.

The best chance of the first period came when Gabriel Landeskog failed to convert a two-on-one break with Simon Hjalmarsson with about nine minutes left in the period.

Matt Duchene was stopped by Enroth from in close about two minutes later.

Canada defeated Sweden 3-0 last week, but that was before the arrival of forwards Henrik and Daniel Sedin, as well as defenceman Alex Edler from the Vancouver Canucks.

For its part, Canada has added P.K. Subban of the Montreal Canadiens to its blue line.

"They've added some key players and they gave us a tight game already in front of their home fans," Canadian forward Steven Stamkos said. "It's going to be a hostile environment."

Canada has been unable to get past the quarterfinals the last three years at this tournament. They last won a world title in 2007 and its last medal was silver in 2009.

In earlier quarterfinal games on Thursday, the United States beat Russia 8-3, Switzerland ousted the Czech Republic 2-1, and Finland edged Slovakia 4-3.

The Canada-Sweden winner will face Finland in one semifinal on Saturday while the U.S. will play Switzerland in the other.

Blogger Jeff Angus asked this yesterday.

Would you trade Edler for Jeff Skinner?

Effing Edler. Why couldn't he do that in the playoffs or regular season instead of during Worlds?!

lol edler
silent assassin

Ouch, you never want to see a grown man wince in pain like that...

Edler is one cheeky cunt...

Hope Staal is okay!

You never want to see an injury like that especially from a top Canadian player... Remember Olympics are next year as well.
