    Biscuit Breakfast
    With just a few days until the Olympic break, today seemed like the perfect day to start my new SBR thread, Biscuit Breakfast.

    I will be providing 1-3 daily picks as well as my thoughts on the current action in the NHL. Please note that my picks are made before the goalie assignments. There will be times where a play is cancelled because of a goalie change. I will try to post my change as soon as possible.

    NEW JERSEY DEVILS ML OVER NASHVILLE

    NJ failed to beat the Flyers both times this week, 3-2. If you didn't see the second NJ goal and the hit that followed you can't appreciate their frustration. I think it was Carter on the Flyers who cleaned the clock of the Devil scorer just after he gave the Devs a 2 goal lead. The hit was clean but vicious. Don't get me wrong, I hate the Devils! They wanted to win both of those games bad and failed. They will skate mad tonight in Newark, lovely city that it is.

    Nashville has been hanging out in snowy Manhattan the past few nights. They are feeling pretty good after their win against the blue shirts. They win a little over half on the road this year while NJ wins 2:1 at home.

    Good Luck

          PHOENIX COYOTES -140 OVER DALLAS

          Phoenix lost a tough one in Colorado last night. They will be looking forward to playing in front of the home crowd tonight. The yotes have the Stars number this year.

          good luck

            Side Note- I am still playing this game if Bryzgalov sits. I am waiting to see if we get a good line move if/when Labarbera starts.

                Apologies for the weak Coyotes pick.

                They looked good early but just couldn't finish.

                I will be posting my plays throughout the day starting with PITTSBURGH PENS ML @ home.

                Good Luck and

                      I hope the Olympics gets me out of this rut. 2 losses in the last 3, not good.

                      I am taking the UNDER in the US/ Swiss game today. I think the combo of the US lines getting adjusted plus the goaltending from Hiller will stall the onset of the offense. I see this a 3-1 type of game. The US will probably cover but if they do it will be because of their defense.

                      So my first 2010 Olympic pick is UNDER 6 in the opening game.

                      Good Luck

                          RUSSIA -4.5

                          I have already posted that I think the Russians will fail to medal. Probably very unpopular opinion.

                          They will not fail here. The blue liners for Team Russia are prolific scorers. Gonchar and Markov will dominate the PP. Semin is playing unbelievable right now. I think Russia wins this game 7-0 or 7-1.

                          Why do I think the Russians fail to medal? I will explain more later. But I don't see this team gelling like USA, Canada, Sweden and the Czechs. They have an awesome roster. I like seeing Federov for the locker room. But, I am still seeing a disappointment.

                          Good Luck

                              SWEDEN -3.5

                              The Germans are looking at the same problem as Belarus. Penalties cause Power Plays which cause goals.

                              The Swedes have excellent playmakers and skaters. I look for them to work the edge of the rink as the Germans try to take away the center of the rink. This will probably work for a short time but the Swedes' crisp stick to stick passing and sharp edges will breakdown the German defense often. I look for a statement here by the Swedes. The Germans may try to play a rougher game which could lead to more PKs and even more goals.

                              I see this as a 5-0 or 6-1 game for Sweden. If the Germans do decide to rough up the finesse Swedes, it could be worse.

                              SWEDEN -3.5

                                Back to .500

                                Sweden looked weak in front of the net. I thought the Sedins could have done more.

                                Greiss was pretty good in goal for Germany.

                                  The Swedes will need to play tougher tonight if they are to cover the 3.5 goals. I thought both Sedins and Nick Backstrom played soft in the first game. I am wondering if this group is too finesse to win in the medal round.

                                  UNDER 6 SWEDEN/BELARUS.

                                      That's a sick way to lose, rough break.

                                        GERMANY PK

                                        I am looking forward to watching today's action. Lots of weaving up ice, less lateral hockey. The style will be Euro today. Lots of puck possession, less hitting.

                                                        I think the US win todays game 3-2. Seems like everyone is on the UNDER but I disagree. I think this game is played pretty wide open. Power Plays will be the deciding factor if either teams gives up more than 3. These "All Star" lineups have some cohesion now.

                                                              I am taking Slovakia tonight for the Bronze. Looked like Fins came unglued against the US. Ollie Jokinen was clearly rattled. I think Slovakia will use the momemtum they gained at the end of the Canada to roll through Finland.
