CollegeSpeakOut 0 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I have been following the god of all hockey players Ovechkin, I hope they make it to the next round. Kids a star. I am a Lightning fan at heart, but I gotta root for someone. Truth is we gave up Brad Richards and now he is on the Stars working his ass off. I hate when players leave teams and they dont hustle while they're on the team but as soon as they get traded they are amazing again Link to post Share on other sites
PogoTheMonkey182 0 Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Honestly, I'm not paying attention to the playoffs until the semi-finals, except for the Senators/Penguins series. Eitherway here are my picks (in bold): MTL vs BOS WSH vs PHI PIT vs OTT DET vs NSH DAL vs ANA MIN vs COL SJ vs CGY - (I don't mind either team) NYR vs NJ We're a week into the post-season, but ok.....

darthYENIK 8,859 Posted April 16, 2008 Author Share Posted April 16, 2008 Finally the Ducks show their true talent. The first two periods of last night's game, they were unstoppable. Link to post Share on other sites
PogoTheMonkey182 0 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Well, my Sens are eliminated. Can't say I didn't see it coming. Oh well, hopefully the Flames or Habs give me something to cheer for! Link to post Share on other sites
DazedFinch 1 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Well, my Sens are eliminated. Can't say I didn't see it coming. Oh well, hopefully the Flames or Habs give me something to cheer for! Habs are winning it this year! I wouldn't mind an all Canadian final between the Flames and Habs actually. Just think of the ratings. Link to post Share on other sites

darthYENIK 8,859 Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I've said it once and I'll say it again. A Western Conference team will win the Cup. And if it's not a Pacific Division team, it will be the Red Wings. Link to post Share on other sites

And if it's not a Pacific Division team, it will be the Red Wings. You're not the only one saying that, pretty much every hockey analyst is, too. And I agree, I think it's rather safe to say that either the Ducks or Sharks, both Pacific teams, are going to win. Link to post Share on other sites

Hasek needs to rest. Big. But they might shape up. We are going back to JLA baby! Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,859 Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I guess it is a popular prediction. But that's only at this point in the playoffs. This round of the playoffs is crucial, at least for the western conference, where all the predicted cup winners are currently getting a workout against their competition.

DazedFinch 1 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Well when you look at the NHL the West is definitely more dominate than the East. Even the lower seeds in the West like the Flames are way better than the lower seeds in the East like the Bruins. I personally want to see the Sharks knocked off in the first round, I wouldn't mind seeing the Stars beat the Ducks and if Nashville could upset Detriot I think that could set for an interesting second round and more attention to the East.

darthYENIK 8,859 Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 Corey Perry is "likely" to come back into the Ducks lineup tonight. This makes me wonder if Zubov will have to hobble out onto the ice anytime soon. Link to post Share on other sites
SBizz6 1 Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 Wow, I never expected the Bruins to win two games in this series. And a 5-1 win last night? That really gives me some hope that we could pull off a big comeback. That would be amazing... And I really hope the Rangers end it tonight, while I also hope Anaheim keeps their series going. We'll see... Link to post Share on other sites
darthYENIK 8,859 Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 The Ducks live to fight another day. What a game. I got to go and sit 4 rows up from the glass, and right next to the Zamboni entrance. Needless to say, there was tons of action right there. Link to post Share on other sites

Needless to say, there was tons of action right there. Wow that sounds awesome. I haven't been to a playoff game in about 10 years, and I wish I could go incredibly bad this season... I just live too far away to be able to catch a game... Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 3,953 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Anybody know if Phily beat Washington this afternoon? I got to watch the first period and then I had to go out and I wasn't back in time to catch the end of it. I hope Montreal will be able finish off Boston tonight. It will be tough considering they will be in Boston. I'm still hoping. Link to post Share on other sites

Ryan 3,953 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 lol, that was a bit random Andy Thanks for the info YENIK. There is about 6 minutes left in 3'rd period of the Montreal - Boston game. Tied 3-3 at the moment. Looks like it might be going to OT, but a lot can happen in 6 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites
