Las Vegas - Jeff Capel sat on Coach K's left for like seven years as the assistant head coach, so they know each other pretty well. Capel has been a solid head coach, not Hall of Fame worthy like his mentor. He was 79-41 at Old Dominion, 96-69 at Oklahoma and is sitting at 36-38 with Pittsburgh.

Las Vegas - Gonna lace up my skates for the first time this season and take a little spin on the NHL ice. Looking at the Avalanche over the Blues in the second game of the back-to-back that most teams are playing in order to cut down on travel. Everyone is expecting big things from Colorado, which is why the Avs were listed as the favorite to win the Stanley Cup (7/1), the West Division (3/2), as well as topping the list for the most points (77.5). So, what happens?
