Tonight's Picks

PIIT ROW over NYI
DAL OTW over SJ
ANA ROW ver WIN
TAM ROW over DET

Yesterday, after a few technical issues for which I apologize, you all made your selections for the 6 Sabres Forwards to protect...to go along with Kyle Okposo who has to be protected due to his NMC.

The top 6 you selected were:
Ryan O'Reily
Evander Kane
Marcus Foligno
Zemgus Girgensons
John Larsson
William Carrier


So, you all left Matt Moulson and Brian Gionta exposed to Vegas...

There was some debate on the podcast with Russ and Mike believing that Evander Kane will NOT be and should NOT be protected.. I completely agree with all of you. That he should and he absolutely WILL be protected by the Sabres. He has had a fantastic year and only has one year left on his contract..

What's the BUZZ?
Do you feel the Sabres will/should protect Evander Kane?


Now we get into selecting the Defense and Goalies to protect for Buffalo

What team do you want to select next?

So last night saw a bit of a shake-up in the Western Conference Projected Standings with Calgary losing to Nashville and LA defeating Winnipeg. The Kings are still very much in this...

Also last night we continued to see Carolina fight to stay alive by beating another tough team. The Hurricanes were very much left for dead a month ago...Also, Tampa's win over Boston has put the Lightning within a point of the Maple Leafs when we look at the projected standings, and only three points behind the Islanders...

None of this has changed the Stanley Cup Final Projections for some time now, as the match ups still favor the Caps in the East and the Hawks and Ducks in the West. In one of my next blogs I will get into the ins and outs of who wants to play who and why in the playoffs...

Here are your updated projected final standings:



We will discuss all of this and more on the buzz cast today at noon ET
