I just posted part 1 of this series, here we have part 2. You can read the first 110 games aka the first part HERE.
Let's get part 2 started. 2024-10-28 New Orleans Specters @ Seattle Argonauts Same as I said two games before about San Francisco applies to New Orleans. Them on the road makes the home team automatic the pick. This time it's Seattle, who will get the win here. Result: New Orleans Specters @ Seattle Argonauts 2:4 And Seattle gets the win. They do their duty and put me to a correct prediction rate of 0.68, I'm so close to greatness. sakro-score: 75-36 / 111 rate: 0.676 2024-10-28 San Francisco Pride @ Texas Renegades Texas is an offensive powerhouse, and that's what they will show in that match. No chance for the Pride. Result: San Francisco Pride @ Texas Renegades 2:12 What a blowout win by Texas. The Renegades get the highest win of the season so far, and it's hard to believe there will be a higher one. sakro-score: 76-36 / 112 rate: 0.679 2024-10-28 Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Edmonton Blizzard Tampa Bay surprised me a bit the last few games, I still have to pick Edmonton here. They seem to be the safe pick, and I think they'll win this game. Result: Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Edmonton Blizzard 2:5 The Blizzard win this game with ease, but Tampa Bay is still better than expected. I regret that I didn't get the Tampa Bay over, but noone told me that this might be a good bet. So let's keep blaming hotdog. sakro-score: 77-36 / 113 rate: 0.681 2024-10-28 Winnipeg Aurora @ Calgary Dragons Calgary at home is normally a lock if they face opponents on their level or below. But I still think Winnipeg could surprise here and get away with a win. Result: Winnipeg Aurora @ Calgary Dragons 0:4 Well, my feeling was wrong. Calgary won that one with ease and showed once again that they are hard to beat for teams that are on their level or below. sakro-score: 77-37 / 114 rate: 0.675 2024-10-28 Buffalo Stampede @ New England Wolfpack Another risky pick, but I go New England here. They surprised a few times now, and I put them to do so in that one too. Result: Buffalo Stampede @ New England Wolfpack 3:5 Up and down, wow. My feeling was right in that one. The Wolfpack got the edge over Buffalo and got the win. sakro-score: 78-37 / 115 rate: 0.678 2024-10-28 Baltimore Platoon @ Manhattan Rage Hm, Baltimore is away, that could be the time for another upset by them. Not this time I think, Manhattan gets the win. Result: Baltimore Platoon @ Manhattan Rage 1:5 Manhattan gets the win in a strong fashion. They left no chance for Baltimore to come up with another surprise. sakro-score: 79-37 / 116 rate: 0.681 2024-10-28 Hamilton Steelhawks @ Toronto North Stars Toronto cooled down a bit, but I picked them at home against Hamilton nevertheless. If they want to compete with the great teams, they have to beat them, and so it will be. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ Toronto North Stars 3:2 OT Hamilton comes out of that affair with a close win. My prediction was wrong and the North Stars lose to Hamilton in overtime. The Steelhawks made it clear now at latest, that they are the one to beat this season to win the cup. sakro-score: 79-38 / 117 rate: 0.675 2024-10-28 Atlanta Inferno @ Chicago Syndicate As much as I hope to get a Atlanta win here, I think it's pretty unrealistic. Chicago is the better team and rested, moreover they play at home. This will be a pretty clear win for Chicago. Result: Atlanta Inferno @ Chicago Syndicate 0:5 The Syndicate gets a confident win, whereas the Inferno gets what was to be expected, not much. sakro-score: 80-38 / 118 rate: 0.678 2024-10-29 Calgary Dragons @ Los Angeles Panthers Calgary gets another chance on a win here, and they'll get it in Los Angeles. Result: Calgary Dragons @ Los Angeles Panthers 8:0 What a statement win from Calgary on the road. They win in a shutout, putting 8 on the board. It's better to not doubt the Dragons it seems. sakro-score: 81-38 / 119 rate: 0.681 2024-10-29 Chicago Syndicate @ Winnipeg Aurora Chicago will win this one in Canada. Winnipeg knows to surprise from time to time, but this won't be one of the upsets. Result: Chicago Syndicate @ Winnipeg Aurora 6:0 An 8-0 win followed by a 6-0 win, wild times in the SHL. The prediction is correct, that's all that matters for me in that game. sakro-score: 82-38 / 120 rate: 0.683 2024-10-29 Seattle Argonauts @ Minnesota Monarchs I think that Minnesota and Seattle are on a similar level, maybe slight advantages for Minnesota. That's why they win that home game. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Minnesota Monarchs 1:4 The Monarchs get the win and prove that they are not that easy to beat. With that correct prediction I got to the nice prediction rate of 0.69. sakro-score: 83-38 / 121 rate: 0.686 2024-10-29 Toronto North Stars @ Baltimore Platoon Toronto will get back on the winning track with a visit in Baltimore. The home games are not the best outings for the Platoon, so that's not that hard to predict. Result: Toronto North Stars @ Baltimore Platoon 2:1 SO What's up with Toronto? After the season start they looked like the best thing in SHL, now they even struggle against a lackluster Baltimore team. They have to go to the very end and are lucky to win in shootout vs the bad performing Baltimore franchise. sakro-score: 84-38 / 122 rate: 0.689 2024-10-29 Edmonton Blizzard @ Tampa Bay Barracuda Edmonton wins this away game, as they are the stronger team of the two. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Tampa Bay Barracuda 4:5 OT Edmonton put up a fight, but in the end they fall short to Tampa Bay in overtime. Another time I underestimate Tampa Bay at home and they come up with the win. sakro-score: 84-39 / 123 rate: 0.683 2024-10-29 New England Wolfpack @ Hamilton Steelhawks That's easy to pick, Hamilton all the way. They got a lot better over the last few games and will show that in this outing. Result: New England Wolfpack @ Hamilton Steelhawks 2:9 And how they show how good they are at the moment. They beat the Wolfpack with 9-2, a squad that won their last game surprisingly against Buffalo. Watch out and take care to whoever has to face the Steelhawks in the near future. sakro-score: 85-39 / 124 rate: 0.685 2024-10-30 Los Angeles Panthers @ Manhattan Rage Manhattan gets it done at home vs Los Angeles. Los Angeles is always good for an upset though. Could be a close game. Result: Los Angeles Panthers @ Manhattan Rage 2:5 Manhattan takes the win with no doubt. Los Angeles stays the up and down team in the league, I really don't know where exactly to put them. Eveything can happen when they play, often they end up beaten though. sakro-score: 86-39 / 125 rate: 0.688 2024-10-31 Edmonton Blizzard @ Texas Renegades The Renegades are up for another win at home, Edmonton will have to look out to keep them from scoring to have a chance. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Texas Renegades 3:1 Edmonton surprisingly wins in Texas, leaving the Renegades only 1 goal in the whole game. This comes rather surprisingly, as they seemed to have fired up their offense after scoring 12 goals in their last game. sakro-score: 86-40 / 126 rate: 0.683 2024-10-31 New Orleans Specters @ San Francisco Pride New Orleand away is an auto pick for the home team, even if it's San Francisco. The seemingly worst two teams this season face off. Result: New Orleans Specters @ San Francisco Pride 2:4 San Francisco gets the win and puts the Specters in place. It probably will be a tough battle for the two teams for the dumpster fire trophy, I think I predicted San Francisco to get it. sakro-score: 87-40 / 127 rate: 0.685 2024-10-31 New England Wolfpack @ Winnipeg Aurora Winnipeg should be the favorite in this matchup. I see them above New England, so they are predicted to win this one. Result: New England Wolfpack @ Winnipeg Aurora 3:5 The Aurora win this game and make sure to keep me at the nice rate of 0.69. sakro-score: 88-40 / 128 rate: 0.688 2024-10-31 Atlanta Inferno @ Minnesota Monarchs Atlanta should be favorite in this outing, although they are on the road. They need to get every win they can to fight for the division title. Result: Atlanta Inferno @ Minnesota Monarchs 1:4 Oh no, don't let me down Inferno. The Monarchs come out victorious of that one, in a pretty confident way. sakro-score: 88-41 / 129 rate: 0.682 2024-10-31 Calgary Dragons @ Toronto North Stars Here we have Calgary, facing Toronto on the road. That's a tough challenge for them, so I pick their opponent. Toronto it is. Result: Calgary Dragons @ Toronto North Stars 3:4 Toronto gets the win and puts the Dragons in check. A close game, but the North Stars can use any win they get now to get back to early season form. sakro-score: 89-41 / 130 rate: 0.685 2024-10-31 Seattle Argonauts @ Buffalo Stampede Buffalo should have an easy win in that one, Seattle on the road is a rather easy opponent. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Buffalo Stampede 1:7 The Stampede racks up 7 goals and sends the Argonauts home in shambles. They tear apart their defense and get a confident win. sakro-score: 90-41 / 131 rate: 0.687 2024-11-01 Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Atlanta Inferno Another Barracuda game I hope won't turn into a trap game. Atlanta should be favored in this one, and they really should get the win for the sake of my money. Please just win. Result: Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Atlanta Inferno 2:5 Playing Tampa Bay at home and away are two different pair of shoes it seems. They got a lot of wins already at home, but away they are by far not that successful. Atlanta gets the win in that one, in a pretty clear fashion. sakro-score: 91-41 / 132 rate: 0.689 2024-11-01 Manhattan Rage @ Texas Renegades After the last struggle of Texas, they have to get back on victory road to keep up their good season. They'll do so in beating Manhattan at home. Result: Manhattan Rage @ Texas Renegades 0:3 Texas does as I said and gets the win. They don't even let the Rage score. sakro-score: 92-41 / 133 rate: 0.692 2024-11-01 Minnesota Monarchs @ New Orleans Specters Minnesota travels to New Orleans to take them on in one of the few games they are favored as a road team. They will get the win, although it might be a close game. Result: Minnesota Monarchs @ New Orleans Specters 0:3 There is no close game this time around, New Orleans leaves no doubt of the winner of this game and shuts the Monarchs out. They have to travel home without anything, no points, no goals, no success. Shoudda played better. sakro-score: 92-42 / 134 rate: 0.687 2024-11-01 Los Angeles Panthers @ Edmonton Blizzard Edmonton is to big of a challenge for Los Angeles, the Blizzard will get the win. Result: Los Angeles Panthers @ Edmonton Blizzard 3:0 What is happening right now? One 3-0 shutout after the other. This time it's the Panthers keeping the Blizzard scoreless at home, what is kind of surprising and impressive. Los Angeles is really able to do anything, you could get an upset in both sides, depending who their opponent is. sakro-score: 92-43 / 135 rate: 0.681 2024-11-01 Hamilton Steelhawks @ Chicago Syndicate Another match-up of last seasons final. I go again with the home team, although failing the other two times already. And Hamilton has a run currently, but every run has to end once. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ Chicago Syndicate 3:1 The road team takes the win again, Hamilton keeps its streak going. This means another wrong prediction for me, which makes it already three in a row. sakro-score: 92-44 / 136 rate: 0.676 2024-11-01 San Francisco Pride @ Buffalo Stampede Ok, this one should end my streak pretty easily. Buffalo Stampede is too good to fail at home vs the Pride. Result: San Francisco Pride @ Buffalo Stampede 0:5 A clear statement that Buffalo is the better team, there was no chance for San Francisco to make the upset. sakro-score: 93-44 / 137 rate: 0.679 2024-11-02 Toronto North Stars @ Baltimore Platoon Toronto is clearly the better team, and they just got back to winning, so they won't stop here either. Result: Toronto North Stars @ Baltimore Platoon 3:1 And Toronto gets the win here. I have to take a look how many games Baltimore won at home this season, can't be that much. sakro-score: 94-44 / 138 rate: 0.681 2024-11-02 Tampa Bay Barracuda @ New England Wolfpack New England welcomes Tampa Bay in their rink, but won't let them leave with a win in their bags. That could be a very close affair, but Tampa Bay seems to be a lot stronger when playing at home. Win New England Wolfpack. Result: Tampa Bay Barracuda @ New England Wolfpack 1:4 The Wolfpacks gets it done and stays victorious. They seem to play a bit better lately, and get a nice win vs Tampa Bay. sakro-score: 95-44 / 139 rate: 0.683 2024-11-03 Seattle Argonauts @ Minnesota Monarchs Seattle is on the road in Minnesota, I think that game wasn't that long ago already. I picked Minnesota and was correct, so I'm doing the exact same thing again. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Minnesota Monarchs 2:1 This time Seattle is able to get the win. It's a close game, but the Argonauts stay victorious in the end. sakro-score: 95-45 / 140 rate: 0.679 2024-11-03 Buffalo Stampede @ Chicago Syndicate Chicago should win this one, being the home team and probably the better team too. Result: Buffalo Stampede @ Chicago Syndicate 4:2 Buffalo hurts me and my casino chances again and upsets Chicago and steals a win. Stampede is still a very good team, so it's not that surprising to happen. sakro-score: 95-46 / 141 rate: 0.674 2024-11-04 Calgary Dragons @ Atlanta Inferno Atlanta has a tough challenge with Calgary, but they are able to get the win at home. Result: Calgary Dragons @ Atlanta Inferno 3:2 OT Oof, the Dragons get the win in overtime. Quality-wise, I think Calgary is a bit above Atlanta, so it makes sense they got the win, as they always seem to get the win facing opponents they are slightly above. sakro-score: 95-47 / 142 rate: 0.669 2024-11-04 Seattle Argonauts @ Los Angeles Panthers The Panthers play a normal game and finally get a normal victory, without upsets and all that stuff that tends to happen more often when Los Angeles is playing. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Los Angeles Panthers 2:6 The Panthers get a confident win and nothing at all is surprising with that. Maybe that's the surprising thing still. sakro-score: 96-47 / 143 rate: 0.671 2024-11-04 New Orleans Specters @ Manhattan Rage Specters travelling around and seem to not find their luck. This is going to be another win for the home team, so Manhattan it is. Result: New Orleans Specters @ Manhattan Rage 2:1 OT Oh my god what did I just see, Manhattan lost at home to New Orleans. That's a shame, going to overtime won't get you anything, blame on you for handing them a win when I bet their under. sakro-score: 96-48 / 144 rate: 0.667 2024-11-04 Baltimore Platoon @ Toronto North Stars Should be an easy win for Toronto, even tho Baltimore only surprises on the road. But the North Stars get back into their early form. Result: Baltimore Platoon @ Toronto North Stars 0:1 That's not quite as I have imagined, but Toronto still won. This game had nothing to do with their early season performances though. sakro-score: 97-48 / 145 rate: 0.669 2024-11-05 New England Wolfpack @ Atlanta Inferno That has to be a win for Atlanta. They should be the better team, and play at home. Result: New England Wolfpack @ Atlanta Inferno 4:3 Welp, that was a close one but a loss for me, my future team and prediction rate. Sad to see the Inferno losing again, but I'm sure they'll start to doing better soon. I'm believing in the ATL over bet. sakro-score: 97-49 / 146 rate: 0.664 2024-11-05 Minnesota Monarchs @ San Francisco Pride Minnesota takes the win in San Francisco. Because why not? Result: Minnesota Monarchs @ San Francisco Pride 2:4 Ok, that's a win for San Francisco. The Pride can be proud to get it done at home. They have to celebrate every single win they get this season, there won't be plenty. sakro-score: 97-50 / 147 rate: 0.660 2024-11-05 Texas Renegades @ Toronto North Stars Toronto is struggling lately, so I go with Texas here. Texas also isn't up to their play, but seemed to be slightly more consistent than Toronto. Result: Texas Renegades @ Toronto North Stars 7:4 What a game! Texas indeed gets the win in a wild 7-4 win on the road. sakro-score: 98-50 / 148 rate: 0.662 2024-11-05 Baltimore Platoon @ Hamilton Steelhawks This looks like an easy win, so I take the obvious prediction. Predictions can be so easy when you see match-ups like that. Result: Baltimore Platoon @ Hamilton Steelhawks 0:6 And they shut them out and take the win. That's nothing surprising at all, and I'm happy to get another correct prediction. sakro-score: 99-50 / 149 rate: 0.664 2024-11-05 Los Angeles Panthers @ Chicago Syndicate That is an easy win for Chicago. I know everything can happen with the Panthers, but not this time. Result: Los Angeles Panthers @ Chicago Syndicate 2:7 Chicago takes the win and blows them out of their arena. They are handing 7 goals to them, looks like a Syndicate team is on the rise again. sakro-score: 100-50 / 150 rate: 0.667 2024-11-05 New Orleans Specters @ Buffalo Stampede The margin of error is way higher for the Stampede winning than for New Orleans winning, so we take Buffalo here. Moreover it's the obvious pick, as they are the far better team. Result: New Orleans Specters @ Buffalo Stampede 1:10 Buffalo leaves no doubt that they are the far superior team against New Orleans. Scoring 10 goals is a hard pill to swallow for the Specters, they'll have to try to get their things together again. Or not, I wouldn't mind to be honest. sakro-score: 101-50 / 151 rate: 0.669 2024-11-06 Edmonton Blizzard @ Calgary Dragons That could be a close game, but I take Edmonton here. Can't really say why, as the two teams seem to be about the same range and Calgary is quite ruthless against opponents they can win. Still, this one is going to the Blizzard Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Calgary Dragons 2:4 I guess that's what you call a wrong prediction. No point for me here, I should have listened to myself and taken Calgary. There was a chance though, but Edmonton couldn't use it. Maybe next time. sakro-score: 101-51 / 152 rate: 0.664 2024-11-07 Seattle Argonauts @ Texas Renegades Texas is the favorite, this should be an easy win. Seattle is not on their level. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Texas Renegades 3:5 Was closer than expected, still a good win for Texas. They are good on offense, but maybe have to get their defense together to compete with the big ones. sakro-score: 102-51 / 153 rate: 0.667 2024-11-07 Edmonton Blizzard @ New Orleans Specters No, this is not going into New Orlean's favor. The Blizzard is to strong for the Specters to keep up with them. They would have to play at least two levels above their power to have a chance in that one. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ New Orleans Specters 11:1 Rough stretch of games for the Specters lately. After getting 10 goals on the road, they get even one more from Edmonton in this game. They for sure are looking forward to rest a bit now and try to play actual big league hockey again. sakro-score: 103-51 / 154 rate: 0.669 2024-11-07 Minnesota Monarchs @ Los Angeles Panthers Win for the Panthers. I think they are above the Monarchs, and show it in that game. Which results in a win for them, sounds obvious. Result: Minnesota Monarchs @ Los Angeles Panthers 0:5 Los Angeles gets the win in a shutout vs Minnesota. The travel to the west coast wasn't worthy the way, and they can start to go back from where they come from and dream of better days. sakro-score: 104-51 / 155 rate: 0.671 2024-11-07 Manhattan Rage @ Baltimore Platoon Manhattan has to win a few to play up to their favorite role in their division. While doing all this, I learned that Manhattan is in the same conference with Tampa Bay, Atlanta, New England and Baltimore, so it's a close race on the top. They have to win here to stay ahead. Result: Manhattan Rage @ Baltimore Platoon 4:1 They accomplish to get the win here. An important one I'd like to say, but winning in Baltimore is nothing to rest upon. There are way tougher challenges down the road for them. sakro-score: 105-51 / 156 rate: 0.673 2024-11-07 Hamilton Steelhawks @ Tampa Bay Barracuda Hamilton should have no problem with Tampa Bay here. Although the Barracuda show they are performing really good at home, Hamilton is nothing they can compete with here. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ Tampa Bay Barracuda 6:2 Hamilton takes the win with ease and flies home with another victory. They are looking like the top-notch team everyone expected them to be. sakro-score: 106-51 / 157 rate: 0.675 2024-11-07 Atlanta Inferno @ Chicago Syndicate This probably will go to the Syndicate, Chicago is too strong of an opponent for the Inferno to challenge them here. Result: Atlanta Inferno @ Chicago Syndicate 5:2 Holy moly I don't mind at all to being wrong here. Atlanta gets the 5-2 win and calls it a day. I like to see it. Chicago makes me scratch my head, I really thought they got the turnaround in the last few games. sakro-score: 106-52 / 158 rate: 0.671 2024-11-07 Winnipeg Aurora @ Buffalo Stampede I predict another Buffalo win here, although it could be a close match. They are the better team, so they probably will take the win though. Result: Winnipeg Aurora @ Buffalo Stampede 0:4 Haven't expected a shutout, but so it shall be. Not much the Aurora could do except being there, no goals, no points, nothing to get here for Winnipeg. I just saw I'm over 100 games predicted correctly already, and being almost 160 games into the season. sakro-score: 107-52 / 159 rate: 0.673 2024-11-08 Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Seattle Argonauts Seattle gets this win at home vs Tampa Bay, they are due for another win. And with the Barracuda fighting for a top rank in the division, it comes in handy to see them lose. Result: Tampa Bay Barracuda @ Seattle Argonauts 2:4 The Argonauts get the mission done and come out of the game with a win, nice. And I'm trying to working my way back to the 0.69 range, not quite there just now. sakro-score: 108-52 / 160 rate: 0.675 2024-11-08 Texas Renegades @ Winnipeg Aurora Texas win here. Never know what Winnipeg is up to, especially if I predict against them, but I'm confident this is going to be a Texas loss. Result: Texas Renegades @ Winnipeg Aurora 3:1 Texas plays up to their high hopes and takes the win. Winning in Winnipeg is not easy, so a 3-1 is something you can take some confidence out of. sakro-score: 109-52 / 161 rate: 0.677 2024-11-08 Baltimore Platoon @ Calgary Dragons I think Calgary Dragons haven't lost a single game they were favorites so far this season and this won't end here. Result: Baltimore Platoon @ Calgary Dragons 1:6 This didn't end here. Confident win, no doubt in who got it. No other way this game could have ended, Calgary stays the underdog slayer of the league. sakro-score: 110-52 / 162 rate: 0.679 2024-11-08 Hamilton Steelhawks @ New England Wolfpack Hamilton is on to a win streak, don't see that ending in New England. Hamilton win. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ New England Wolfpack 3:2 Close outing, but Hamilton continues to win. A lot closer than expected though, winning with only 1 goal difference. sakro-score: 111-52 / 163 rate: 0.681 2024-11-08 San Francisco Pride @ Toronto North Stars This looks like an easy win for Toronto, would be surprised if San Francisco could stay in the game long. Result: San Francisco Pride @ Toronto North Stars 3:6 The North Stars take the expected win and send San Francisco back home. They scored 3 goals though, that could be seen as more than expected. sakro-score: 112-52 / 164 rate: 0.683 2024-11-09 Edmonton Blizzard @ New Orleans Specters Please don't let me down Edmonton and get the win. The Blizzard are the favorites and should have no troubles getting the win, thinking about the last performances of the Specters. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ New Orleans Specters 5:2 It was an easy win in the end for Edmonton, they only score 5 on the shaken up New Orleans squad. sakro-score: 113-52 / 165 rate: 0.685 2024-11-09 Toronto North Stars @ Manhattan Rage Manhattan gets the home win vs Toronto, as the North Stars aren't playing at their level anymore. Result: Toronto North Stars @ Manhattan Rage 4:1 That didn't go as expected, Toronto gets the win in this one. Maybe they turn on the heat again and go on another win streak now. sakro-score: 113-53 / 166 rate: 0.681 2024-11-09 San Francisco Pride @ Chicago Syndicate Not sure what to think about Chicago should they lose that one. They can't lose that one, the power levels are way off here. Result: San Francisco Pride @ Chicago Syndicate 2:8 Statement win for Chicago, no chance for San Francisco in taking home some points. sakro-score: 114-53 / 167 rate: 0.683 2024-11-09 Minnesota Monarchs @ Buffalo Stampede Another home team win, Stampede should win with ease. Clearly the better team. Result: Minnesota Monarchs @ Buffalo Stampede 0:5 On that day and in this season, Buffalo is clearly the better team. Shutout win at home. sakro-score: 115-53 / 168 rate: 0.685 2024-11-10 Edmonton Blizzard @ Winnipeg Aurora I am predicting Winnipeg to win this one. Should be a close one, Edmonton is a tough opponent. Still win for Aurora here. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Winnipeg Aurora 3:4 The Aurora make it and keep the win at home. In a close game they turn the tides in their favor and secure the win. sakro-score: 116-53 / 169 rate: 0.686 2024-11-10 Tampa Bay Barracuda @ New England Wolfpack Tampa isn't the strongest team on the road, so I'm going with New England in this one. They aren't playing a good season either, but someone has to win in the end, right? Result: Tampa Bay Barracuda @ New England Wolfpack 4:5 OT Someone has to win in the end, even if the game goes to overtime. I'm correct and got back to the nice 0.69 rate again. sakro-score: 117-53 / 170 rate: 0.688 2024-11-10 Buffalo Stampede @ Hamilton Steelhawks Hammy at home, Hammy win. Easy. Result: Buffalo Stampede @ Hamilton Steelhawks 2:3 SO Hammy home, Hammy win. Easy. You think! Buffalo took them to overtime and even forced a shootout in which they fell short to the dominant force of recent history. In fact I have no idea since when Hamilton is dominant in this league, I think they are since I joined and probably a little while longer even. sakro-score: 118-53 / 171 rate: 0.690 2024-11-11 Chicago Syndicate @ Texas Renegades Chicago is struggling a bit lately, and Texas seems to have found their groove again. So I'm going with the home team here. Result: Chicago Syndicate @ Texas Renegades 3:0 That's an devastating loss for Texas. Shutout at home, nothing you like to experience. No matter who the opponent is, especially if you have an offensive firepower like the Renegades have. sakro-score: 118-54 / 172 rate: 0.686 2024-11-11 Los Angeles Panthers @ San Francisco Pride This is going to be a win for Los Angeles. Everything can happen in a Panthers game though, their outliers this season are pretty wide. Result: Los Angeles Panthers @ San Francisco Pride 4:3 The Panthers get the win on the road, although San Francisco keeps it a close game. Winning by just 1 goal vs San Francisco isn't that good, even if it's an away game. A win is a win though. sakro-score: 119-54 / 173 rate: 0.688 2024-11-11 New Orleans Specters @ Minnesota Monarchs All my money on Minnesota. Well, my money is already in the casino, so I have nothing left really to bet here. Still, Minny winny. Result: New Orleans Specters @ Minnesota Monarchs 3:4 SO Minnesota gets the win, but not before going all the way via overtime to a shootout. They have the better end, and I'm a bit worrying about if this New Orleans team can continue falling short the whole season. Let's just hope so for my moneys sake sakro-score: 120-54 / 174 rate: 0.690 2024-11-11 New England Wolfpack @ Tampa Bay Barracuda Tampa Bay plays strong at home so far, and New England plays meh so far, so I predict a Tampa Bay win. Who would have thought about something like that about two seasons ago? Result: New England Wolfpack @ Tampa Bay Barracuda 5:2 Tampa Bay let me down, New England takes the win. Just like in the good old days probably, but I can't really tell you anything about the good old days. sakro-score: 120-55 / 175 rate: 0.686 2024-11-11 Manhattan Rage @ Toronto North Stars This looks like a Toronto win here. They aren't playing up to their hopes lately, but are still the better team than Manhattan. Result: Manhattan Rage @ Toronto North Stars 3:4 SO The game ended with a Toronto win, but it's been as close as it can get. They get the win in shootout and keep the Rage in check. sakro-score: 121-55 / 176 rate: 0.688 2024-11-12 Edmonton Blizzard @ Texas Renegades The next home team win here, Texas gets the win over Edmonton. Wouldn't be the biggest upset if not, but the Renegades are the favorites here. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Texas Renegades 0:7 It seems that Edmonton played a different game here. No chance for them, shutout and lost in a clear fashion. Try better next time. sakro-score: 122-55 / 177 rate: 0.689 2024-11-12 Atlanta Inferno @ New Orleans Specters The series of home prediction ends here, with Atlanta going to New Orleans to get a very important win for my casino bet. Result: Atlanta Inferno @ New Orleans Specters 5:3 Thank you Atlanta. Winning in New Orleans is one of the easier things to do this season, but you still have to get it done. That's what they did and I am happy. sakro-score: 123-55 / 178 rate: 0.691 2024-11-12 Winnipeg Aurora @ Los Angeles Panthers Winnipeg in this one. There is not really a reason to favor them over Los Angeles, but they have the chance to come out with a win here. Result: Winnipeg Aurora @ Los Angeles Panthers 1:2 The Panthers take the win in a close, low scoring affair. My prediction was wrong, but I am still at a rate of 0.69 which is kind of nice. sakro-score: 123-56 / 179 rate: 0.687 2024-11-12 Seattle Argonauts @ San Francisco Pride Go Argonauts and get a win. I won't predict Seattle to win a lot of games on the road, but this one is up for grabs for them. They just have to take it. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ San Francisco Pride 1:5 That's a surprise, San Francisco wins in a dominant fashion against Seattle and get one of their very few wins this season so far. I haven't counted, but I'd guess it's about the third one or so. sakro-score: 123-57 / 180 rate: 0.683 2024-11-12 Manhattan Rage @ Calgary Dragons Calgary wins that one at home, they are cold as ice when facing opponents within their power level. And I'm not sure if Manhattan at the moment even fits that mold. Result: Manhattan Rage @ Calgary Dragons 3:2 That's the third wrong prediction in a row, what's happening. Far away from my noice rating (well, only 0.01 but that's all it needs, right?), I'm trying to get things better again. sakro-score: 123-58 / 181 rate: 0.680 2024-11-12 Buffalo Stampede @ Hamilton Steelhawks This should be an easy one for Hamilton. They are on a win streak and Buffalo isn't coming close to them at the moment. Result: Buffalo Stampede @ Hamilton Steelhawks 7:0 Oh god what is happening. Not only to me, also to my casino bet and the whole SHL? A Buffalo shutout on the road vs the hottest team on ice at the moment? Are you drunk FHM? A 7-0 shutout vs the best team in the league (probably) on the road. This makes me think about what I'm even trying to predict here. sakro-score: 123-59 / 182 rate: 0.676 2024-11-13 New England Wolfpack @ Baltimore Platoon Baltimore at home is nothing I bet my money on when it comes to somewhat challenging opponents, so I go with New England here. Result: New England Wolfpack @ Baltimore Platoon 1:2 Baltimore proves me wrong. I picked against them and they take the win. Make it 5 fails in a row. Gosh what am I doing here? sakro-score: 123-60 / 183 rate: 0.672 2024-11-13 Buffalo Stampede @ Chicago Syndicate Chicago at home is a win in this one. Buffalo comes of a hard road game and has the next challenge ahead of them. Result: Buffalo Stampede @ Chicago Syndicate 2:4 After the big upset on the road vs the Steelhawks, the Stampede can't get a second one done and loses this one. This win finally ends my wrong prediction streak I am very thankful for. sakro-score: 124-60 / 184 rate: 0.674 2024-11-14 New England Wolfpack @ Atlanta Inferno Atlanta needs some wins, so we give the win to Atlanta. Moreover it's the Wolfpack visiting, so the Inferno should be favorite in that one. Result: New England Wolfpack @ Atlanta Inferno 0:3 Atlanta shuts out New England and gets the win. Nice one here, love to see it. sakro-score: 125-60 / 185 rate: 0.676 2024-11-14 San Francisco Pride @ Winnipeg Aurora Winnipeg should be able to get the win here, otherwise they could turn into a laughing stock. I have to admit that San Francisco plays better than I assumed and they come up with some close games. Still the home team will always be favorite if San Francisco is coming for a visit. Result: San Francisco Pride @ Winnipeg Aurora 2:4 The Aurora gets the win and can be reliefed to not be the reason for another upset this season. The Pride looking dangerous at times, maybe they won't get the dumpster fire award handed out to them this season. sakro-score: 126-60 / 186 rate: 0.677 2024-11-14 Calgary Dragons @ Edmonton Blizzard Edmonton has what it needs to hold Calgary in check, that should be a game of similar power level teams. So the home teams has the advantage here and gets my prediction. Result: Calgary Dragons @ Edmonton Blizzard 2:5 They get it done and take the home win. Calgary lost two in a row now against opponents on their level. This didn't happen before I think, and will be interesting to see how they develop further into the season. It's probably only a fluke, but we'll see. sakro-score: 127-60 / 187 rate: 0.679 2024-11-14 Los Angeles Panthers @ Baltimore Platoon Los Angeles is my tip in that one. They have all it takes to challenge Baltimore, and might be the slightly better team. They play a really up and down season so far. Result: Los Angeles Panthers @ Baltimore Platoon 2:4 The Platoon takes the win and refute my prediction. They win another home game, good for them. They should try to get more of those. sakro-score: 127-61 / 188 rate: 0.676 2024-11-14 Seattle Argonauts @ Tampa Bay Barracuda Tampa Bay at home was almost a lock early on in the season, things turned a bit though. They are the favorites vs Seattle though and will take the win. Result: Seattle Argonauts @ Tampa Bay Barracuda 2:5 It's not ideal for Argonauts to face Barracudas in the open sea. The game also didn't go as they wished, my prediction was correct, yay. sakro-score: 128-61 / 189 rate: 0.677 2024-11-14 Hamilton Steelhawks @ Manhattan Rage Hamilton is the favorite here as the season dominator. After a shocking performance at home where they got blown out of their stadium, they had some time to think about what went wrong and will bounce back. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ Manhattan Rage 5:1 Hamilton takes the win, a bit of rehabilitation. They are still the team to beat, and will be happy they didn't get beaten any longer. sakro-score: 129-61 / 190 rate: 0.679 2024-11-15 Winnipeg Aurora @ Seattle Argonauts I give that win to the home team. Winnipeg isn't constantly playing good hockey, and will fall short in that one to Seattle. Result: Winnipeg Aurora @ Seattle Argonauts 2:4 Seattle gets the win, they beat the Aurora 4-2. I'm not sure if any of both teams will have something to do with the playoffs, probably not. But I don't know divisions good enough to be sure about that. sakro-score: 130-61 / 191 rate: 0.681 2024-11-15 Minnesota Monarchs @ New Orleans Specters Minnesota gets the win against New Orleans, just because I don't really want the Specters to win. Again, this has nothing to do with personal opinion, you are just one of my two antagonists in this seasons casino bet. Result: Minnesota Monarchs @ New Orleans Specters 3:2 Minny gets the winny. Just like I predicted. Another loss for New Orleans, they stay at or near the bottom of the standings I think. sakro-score: 131-61 / 192 rate: 0.682 2024-11-15 Toronto North Stars @ San Francisco Pride Toronto should get the win here, otherwise they don't deserve the trust I put in them. Result: Toronto North Stars @ San Francisco Pride 5:1 The North Stars get the expected win in a clear fashion and win quite easily 5-1. Can they get going again? Probably too early to tell after a win against the Pride. sakro-score: 132-61 / 193 rate: 0.684 2024-11-15 Edmonton Blizzard @ Buffalo Stampede Buffalo is still a good enough team to win this match at home. They in fact probably are better than Edmonton. That's a win for the home team. Result: Edmonton Blizzard @ Buffalo Stampede 2:5 The only good thing here is that their O/U lies somewhere near 50, which is a lot to get. So this win won't be the deciding one. I still need some losses to happen though please. sakro-score: 133-61 / 194 rate: 0.686 2024-11-16 Calgary Dragons @ Minnesota Monarchs Calgary wiped the floor with underdogs all the way this season, and this is what they are going to continue. Result: Calgary Dragons @ Minnesota Monarchs 1:3 That's another Calgary loss in the last 3 games. They have to try to get back to their level of the season start to get some more wins. Otherwise they could get in troubles, with losing games like that. sakro-score: 133-62 / 195 rate: 0.682 2024-11-16 Hamilton Steelhawks @ Tampa Bay Barracuda Tampa Bay has not the level of play to challenge Hamilton at the moment, even if they are at home. Result: Hamilton Steelhawks @ Tampa Bay Barracuda 3:2 A close win, but a win for Hamilton. I have to mention once again that this Barracuda crew looks way better than in recent years. Especially at home they are putting up a fight in almost every game. sakro-score: 134-62 / 196 rate: 0.684 2024-11-16 Texas Renegades @ Chicago Syndicate Chicago takes this one home and celebrates a home win against a top team in the league. Their defensive strength should help them securing the win. Result: Texas Renegades @ Chicago Syndicate 0:6 The defense for sure played their part, shutting out the high flying offense of the Renegades. That alone is enough to come out with a win, but if you score another half dozen yourself, it's what is called a blowout win. sakro-score: 135-62 / 197 rate: 0.685 2024-11-16 Manhattan Rage @ Buffalo Stampede Manhattan is the wishful pick here, just because it would be nice to see Buffalo lose another one. I know that predictions shouldn't be affected by stuff like that, but it's still my predictions, so let me do what I want. Result: Manhattan Rage @ Buffalo Stampede 4:2 Now look at this nice little loss for Buffalo. Manhattan travels there, plays some hockey and leaves with a win. Well done guys, good job. Now you can go back to losing to let Atlanta overtake you please. sakro-score: 136-62 / 198 rate: 0.687 That’s the first 198 games of the season, all games until Day 9 stream 2020-02-21 (last Saturday). Let’s see if I find time to get the other 400 games covered. Maybe I have to step back the short comments on predictions and game results a bit. TLDR: I predict all games of the season and after the first 198 I have 136 correct and 62 wrong which is a rate of 0.687 (rounded to 0.69 which is noice). Code: 8016 words ![]() ![]() |
