NHL Playoffs
 

Be a man (or woman) and lay it out:

(1) Tampa Bay Vs (8) NY Isles = TB in 5, this is a fucking lock
(2) Boston Vs (7) Montreal = Montreal in 6, I cant pick against the Habs
(3) Philly Vs (6) New Jersey = NJ in 6, philly's hurt, Brodeur is God
(4) Toronto Vs (5) Ottawa = TO in 7, toronto sucks, but Ottawa has goaltending issues

Detroit Vs Nashville = Detroit
San Jose Vs St-Louis = San Jose
Vancouver Vs Calgary = tough one, Vanc has issues, So Ill take Calgary
Colorado Vs Dallas = Dallas

Here's my predictions:

Tampa Bay vs NYI - Islanders
Boston vs Montreal - Bruins
Philadelphia vs New Jersey - Flyers
Toronto vs Ottawa - Leafs

Detroit vs Nashville - Red Wings
San Jose vs St. Louis - Sharks
Vancouver vs Calgary - Canucks
Colorado vs Dallas - Stars (tough one to pick)

Tampa Bay vs NYI - Tampa Bay
Boston vs Montreal - Montreal (totally biased opinion!)
Philadelphia vs New Jersey - Flyers
Toronto vs Ottawa - Ottawa (tough one: Lalime not doing great this year, and Eddie's back problem)

Detroit vs Nashville - Red Wings
San Jose vs St. Louis - Sharks
Vancouver vs Calgary - Calgary
Colorado vs Dallas - Colorado

tuka.... even though I chose Boston, my heart is totally with the Habs!! :D

Eastern Conference

Tampa Bay Lightning
Montreal Canadiens
Philadelphia Flyers
Toronto Maple Leafs

Western Conference

Nashville Predators
San Jose Sharks
Calgary Flames
Colorado Avalanche

Stanley Cup - Philadelphia Flyers

Well, honestly, the only thing I'm worried about would be seeing Raycroft feeling Jiggy... you know :eek:

Tampa Bay vs NYI - TB
Boston vs Montreal - Bruins
Philadelphia vs New Jersey - Flyers
Toronto vs Ottawa - Leafs

Detroit vs Nashville - Red Wings <---to win the cup baby!
San Jose vs St. Louis - Sharks
Vancouver vs Calgary - Calgary
Colorado vs Dallas - Dallas

Bring it on BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAATCHES!

Tampa over Islanders in 7 (Could be a home-ice series, but Islanders DID dominate season series)
Boston over Montreal in 6 (Easiest pick in the East by far)
New Jersey over Philidelphia in 7 (Experience and goaltending)
Ottawa over Toronto in 7 (Progression alone will take Ottawa to the Cup Final and they WILL win the cup within two years PLAY-I'm NOT a fan of Ottawa)

Detroit over Nashville in 5 (Experience alone)
San Jose over St.Louis in 7 (Close but San Jose has overachieved all year and I see it lasting at least one round into the playoffs. If I'm wrong on one series, this would be the one)
Vancouver over Calgary in 5 (Calgary's overmatched, plain and simple)
Dallas over Colorado in 6 (The closest series to pick by far, but I think Colorado's goaltending will ultimately do them in. Also, Dallas has been one of the hottest teams of late)

You'll pay for that.

Ron is very confident. He's about to have that confidence shaken!!! :D

Tampa Bay vs NYI - Islanders
Boston vs Montreal - Bruins
Philadelphia vs New Jersey - NJ
Toronto vs Ottawa - Leafs - hope they continue the high scoring games (not a leafs fan, but love Eddie!)

Detroit vs Nashville - Red Wings
San Jose vs St. Louis - Sharks
Vancouver vs Calgary - Flames
Colorado vs Dallas - Stars

:bonk:

Here is my prediction:

Who's your daddy?

LOL... most of us picked POORLY in the first round!!!

Let's see how we all do in round two.
We'll wait until everything is done though. ;)

VERY poorly. Lots of upsets in my mind for sure. Along with some GREAT goaltending.

When Ottawa beats Toronto tonight, I'll be at 50%. Pathetic.

I lost both game 7's. My teams never seem to win game 7's. Maybe I'll cheer for Toronto tonight :D

Don't bother Ron. The Leafs will win it without your pretend support and you'll be well under 50%. :D

Yeah, and I'm not that good an actor.

So I guess after tonight we'll know what the next round of play off action will be. you wont hear this often from me but go leafs!

Leafs advance! WOO HOO!
