NHL

Nashville at Chicago

This is a big one for the Predators and the Hawks while not mathematically elminated months ago have played like it. Nashville beat them a couple of days ago 5-2 and being 2 points behind Edmonton (and the last playoff spot) they can pull even with a game in hand. Being Chicago's final home game and knowing they likely are steamed about the Pred's 5-2 win is my only concern in this one. I don't think the Hawks have the weapons to win however.


Nashville -.5 -160 = WIN


I like the Bruins as well against the Capitals but won't pay that price for them.

Best of Luck to all.

Samsung Radio Shack 500 April 2 2004 - Qualifying Matchups

Robby Gordon vs Terry Labonte

Robby Gordon -140
Terry Labonte +110

This one jumped out at me as soon as I went down the list of Qualifying Matchups. In 7 races at TMS Labonte has averaged an 18th place start while Gordon has averaged a 24th place start. If you were to offer me this matchup on race day I would jump all over it as Terry has averaged an 8th place finish here. This however is qualifying. last year Labonte won the battle between these two (Labonte 12, Gordon 21) for the pole. If you want to go back to 2000, Labonte won the pole but that really isnt relivant now. He won't win the pole by any stretch of the imagination but Robby Gordon's best qualifier at this track is last years 21st (24 before that and 29 before that). Hendrick cars should do well here this weekend.

One last note. The reason I stated I would play Terry if this matchup is available on race is while qualifying 18th, he has averaged an 8th place finish. Robby on the other hand while starting 24th has an average finish of 31st place. Lets hope this one is still kicking around on race day.


Terry Labonte +100
