I'm so torn... I don't know whether to make the drive to Raleigh to watch the game at RBC or stay in Winston-Salem....\n\nI hope it ends tonight, because if it doesn't, I will have to miss work on Monday and Tuesday for an overnight trip to Raleigh.

You called it, rogue. The Sabres will win this series in six games, possibly five. Buffalo matches up beautifully against Carolina and will absolutely defeat them to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals (and I have zero fear of Anaheim, assuming they get there).\n\nTime to enlighten eurofootballfan... The Sabres were 1-2-1 against the Hurricanes (you overlooked the shootout). More to the point, in their last meeting, which was on the final night of the regular season, Carolina had EVERYTHING to play for, as a win would have meant the top seed in the Eastern Conference. Buffalo had NOTHING to play for but pride, as they could not move up or down in the seedings. Indeed, the Sabres rested starting goalie Ryan Miller and several other veteran players. The game was even played in Carolina, so the 'Canes were all set, right? \n\nWrong! The Sabres annihilated them, shutting them out 4-0 in front of a home crowd stunned into silence. Get ready for more of the same (I wouldn't rule out a Sabres sweep) in the Eastern Conference Finals. Your point about the heavy reliance on Eric Staal and his line only further makes my point. The Chris Drury line, the Sabres' best checking line, will completely shut down your heroes who rely far too much on a single line for their scoring. Don't believe me? Ask Peter Forsberg and Simon Gagne. Ask Daniel Alfredsson and Dany Heatley. \n\nAs for your precious Cam Ward, he was shelled in game 4 in New Jersey and the Sabres will exploit him much worse. Buffalo has three balanced scoring lines and a different hero every night. Our top defensive pairing, Henrik Tallinder and Toni Lydman will make your top scoring line look abject, again, as they did with Philly and Ottawa. And best of all, we have the best young goattender in the world between the pipes, Ryan Miller. I hope you enjoyed the first two rounds because you are doomed, Carolina fans. Face your fate and enjoy defeat. It's coming, courtesy of my Buffalo Sabres, the 2006 Stanley Cup Champions. \n\nLET'S GO BUF-FA-LO!!!

The Sabres in 7 games. They are going to be a good match for one another, so I don't think one team is heavily favored to win.

That's tough.  Edmonton has the momentum, but Carolina has the home arena advantage.  After the way Edmonton played last game, they look great, but Carolina has a lot of talent.\n\nI would say that Edmonton wins based on the high that they must be feeling of coming back from a 3-1 game deficit.

I think it's going to game seven, which is a toss up. But then, Carolina could take it in six in light of the injuries...jcass, I think you have it twisted. Let's not forget that Buffalo would not even be here if it were not for the key injury to Ottawa, aka Hasek. Ottawa handled Buffalo all year, but they were lucky enough to run into a rookie goalie in the playoffs.\n\nUndeserving Oilers? Remind me who beat the President's Trophy winner in 6 games? And who came back from 2 games down to beat the hottest team in the NHL going into playoffs in 4 straight (barring possibly New Jesrsey)? Who is up 3 games to 1 against the team that battled the Flames to a first round defeat and swept the Avalanche (another one of the 3 hottest teams in the league going into the playoffs)? Who fought wars all year just to make the playoffs in the toughest divison in the NHL? If there has ever been a team more deserving of a Stanley Cup than the Edmonton Oilers, I have not heard of them.

Assuming we can get by Ottawa -- and I believe we can -- my proud Buffalo Sabres will win Lord Stanley's Cup and all of WNY (and those of us Sabres fans scattered about the rest of the world) will rejoice forevermore! :)\n\nGO SABRES!!!
