I Really hope you are right. Lord Stanleys Cup back in the NYC would be great!

If your first round predictions came true, wouldn't the Canucks play Nashville in round 2?

Rangers and Preds in the finals? :1orglaugh

Cup Finals Vancouver Canucks over Pittsburgh Penguins in 7 . Canucks win Stanley Cup.

Canucks win Stanley Cup.

Go 'Nucks go.

Pittsburgh and Vancouver would be my finalists

but i think Philly and Boston are big worries for Crosby and Company

Rangers and Blues had huge seasons for teams that were middling teams - teams like that don't win Stanley Cups.

tired of all these blues in 5 copy/pastes...
come on

sharks will eat

rangers v canucks... agree...vancouver will burn again

i'm leaning more towards this one.. pit has the talent and the depth, if they can get past boston they wont be beat.

st. louis's goalie gets hot, as he has all year, they'll go far, not sure of their depth though.

Pens win it all..... again!

St louis isn;t a big scoring team either so if that goalie flakes they are fucked.

i think pits will have a tough time againsts Philly

i think we may see Boston Chicago final

As long as the Canuckleheads dont win. ANYBODY but them. Diving sons o bitches

looking forward to the pitt vs phil series the most

Hll yeah that may be best series of whole playoffs

:thumbsup
My mother's cousin played for the Canucks in the 70s. You'd think I would be a fan, but I'm not.

I followed Hockey back when Orr and Esposito were on the Boston Bruins and there were like 10 teams in the league and they didn't wear helmets or anything. In fact I was in sixth grade and thought the fights were way better than Saturday morning wrestling LOL.

gotta love the playoffs!

ROFL, someone hand the man a tissue, jesus

Yeah, isn't it like only the last place team in each division doesn't make it in Hockey and Basket balls. Like if you're baseball or football fan you have to actually earn your spot, but in Hockey and Basket Ghetto Ball they should actually give out trophies to the last place teams cause that is an accomplishment. LOL

I love Flyers but I wish Coyotes wins.. They will (might) be our team next year :thumbsup

Round 1:

Rangers in 7
Boston in 6
Devils in 5
Pittsburgh in 7

Vancouver in 6
St.Louis in 6
Chicago in 5
Nashville in 7

Round 2:

Rangers in 6
Boston in 7

Vancouver in 5
Nashville in 6

Round 3:

Rangers in 6
Vancouver in 7

Finals:

Rangers in 5

How many teams in each division don't make the playoffs, just curious?

hey that looks like one of the Sedin sisters, I wonder If Canuck fans gonna litter the ice and burn the city again this year.

Seriously !!! Canuck players are the biggest divers and whiners in the history of NHL. WOW

Shouldn't you get a trophy for not making the playoffs if every other team in your division does?

Anyone but the Canucks or Ottawa.

Hey, according to Brian Burke, weren't the Leafs supposed to be competing for the cup by now? What a fat, red-faced Irish failure that useless, arrogant asshole is. After four years, the team is worse than when he took over...

Where is John Ferguson Jr when you need him?

On topic: I'd like to see someone win the cup who's never won it before. Except for Ottawa or Vancouver, that is

Florida or Nashville. Nashville it is...

Rangers take It, King Henrik gets the Conn Smythe :pimp

Playoffs. What a joke. They should just total the wins or I don't know what. No sport should have every time but one in a division making the playoffs. That's as gay as saying "ALL CHILDREN ARE SPECIAL" lol

haters gonna hate, you post more than anyone else in this

who want to make movie about ice hockey?i need finances have wow plot for ice hockey movie. May be in 3-d if some have vision lmk

Bump that!

No idea this year. The teams all have fire power. Anything could happen. Should be some great hockey though.

GO WHALERS!!!

New Jersey Devils
Pittsburgh Penguins
Washington Capitals
St. Louis Blues
Nashville Predators
Ottawa Senators
Boston Bruins
Florida Panthers

How's that working out for ya? Up 3-0 at home and still LOSE. Pens fail at hockey.:thumbsup

(and Cindy Divesby's a total beeeaaatch)

Pens got robbed. Briere was three feet over the line offside on that first goal.

Still, the Pens played like crap in allowing those other two goals, but if the ref makes the call the game likely turns out different.

"if the refs make the calls?..."

You're kidding, right? Penguins were diving all over the place like faggy Greg Louganis. Flailing their arms up in the air like European footballers. And because Sindy is the posterchild for the NHL the refs were falling for it time and time again...

If the refs made the calls it would've been 4-1 flyers.

Rangers in 7 (Ottawa will push them and did great regular season)
Bruins in 6 (Wash hasn't played as well as they should but are jammed with talent)
Devils in 5 (This is the biggest joke matchup - I hate the div rulings)

Pens in 6 - seriously? You're taking Philly? Pens are down a game and my opinion stays pat.


WEST

Kings in 7 - I think Van is tired and don't have the same pop without D Sedin. Quick can also out play Lou

Blues in 6 - Shark vets MAY push Blues but I'm being generous by saying 6.

Nashville in 6 - This is Nashville's year imo. Radulov gives them an extra dimension, Fisher is a stud, Rinne is solid and they've just got so much depth + a great system.

Phoenix in 6 - I think goaltending will be the story here. Also, Toews is the heart and soul of Chicago and isn't fully healthy.


Finals

Penguins vs Predators

Winners: Pens in 6
