NHL Playoffs!

Well the regular season is over and now it's time for the hockey that matters.

The West lines up as follows

(1) Detroit versus (8) Calgary prediction Detroit in 6

(2) Anaheim versus (7) Minnesota prediction Minnesota 7

(3) Vancouver versus (6) Dallas prediction Vancouver in 5

(4) Nashville versus (5) San Jose prediction San Jose in 6

The East lines up as follows

(1) Buffalo versus (8) Long Island prediction Buffalo in 4

(2) New Jersey versus (7) Tampa Bay prediction New Jersey in 6

(3) Atlanta versus (6) New York Rangers prediction Atlanta in 7

(4) Ottawa versus (5) Pittsburgh prediction Pittsburgh in 6

most lop sided match up definitely has to be Long Island versus Buffalo. the Isle is well coached but that's about all. what a horrible team they have... Buffalo is going to tear them apart.

most exciting match up has to be Ottawa and Pittsburgh. Heatly, Alfredoson, Spezza, Crosby, Malkin, and Staal will be a treat to watch.

My brain says we're going to see a San Jose Buffalo final but my heart wants to see Pittsburgh, Vancouver.

Go Canucks!!!

Toronto didn't make the playoffs... is there a point to living??? Ah yes, its called beer.

Seriously though, if Toronto played the Sabres, profits from that series would go through the roof seeing as Toronto is the team that everyone loves to hate, and that the cities are less than an hour's drive apart.

Gotta feel bad for Mats Sundin, to miss the playoffs 2 years in a row with Toronoto, seems like he always busts his ass for that team and they go nowhere in return. Oh well, I guess his golf game will get a good fine-tuning.

Yesterday I was bummed that the habs got knocked. Today I'm the happiest I can be now that Toronto is out. :)

My hopes are Pittsburgh in the finals vs the Canucks... it wouldn't get any better.

Just imagining a Game 7 Stanley Cup final, and Crosby is moving in on a breakaway on Luongo.

I think I just achieved NHLvana

If they can get past New Jersey, I predict Tampa Bay will be this year's Cinderella Team. The West doesn't get one, since any one of them could beat the other.

^ Dude, did you see the game Tampa played against us? They looked like they hadn't been acquainted with the concept of defense. They don't have a top rated goalie. They slipped in the standings late in the year. They are playing a veteran team with a goaltender who was not only arguably the best all season, but is also in the conversation regarding "best of all time".

I'd stake my life on it: they are not getting past the Devils.

I agree with you about the west though. No cinderella stories there.

Calgary would be a Cinderella team if they made it any where. and the Canucks are already a Cinderella story just to be where they are. most people didn't even give them a chance to make the playoffs and when they stumbled out of the gates people were ready to have Luongo drawn and quartered.

I was actually laughing out loud while watching the Islanders game. Toronto must have been shitting there pants watching it, especially when Jersery scored with .9 seconds left on the clock. Poor poor toronto, there hopes finally dashed in a half assed shoot out attempt.

You mean the Calgary with the all-star goalie, one of the best all around players/captains in the world and a ton of playoff experience because they just ran to a Cup finals 7th game 3 years ago?

Sorry, not buying that. They'd be something of a surprise, but let's not cheapen the "Cinderella" tag by attaching it to a quality team like this.

We were definetly a huge surprise this regular season, but I think you're again maligning the C word. The reason we attach that tag to certain teams is because they come out of nowhere to steal the spotlight, and then end up "marrying the prince" and living happily ever after.

Having a great regular season is not tantamount to "marrying the prince".

And as of right now, we're not going to surprise anyone by doing well.

Which is a good thing :)

OH HELLO!

Seeing as all the playoffs are broadcast in glorious HD and I have recently acquired an equally as glorious HD-PVR to accompany my 50" HDTV I propose many nights of NHL hockey at my house.

Anyone else interested to see what we could work out for game nights!?!?

Shawn.

It's a bit hairy for me, and probably others, to try and make it out there during the week.. why don't we set aside a weekend game as a big ol FNK Canucks meet at your place?

Game 3: Sunday Apr. 15th, 6:30pm. Works for you?
