I'm thinking Detroit in 5. Anyone else? | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/17/2006 8:45:23 PM | Detroit in 4. Edmonton wont even score more then 6 goals in thoes 4 games lol.
New Jersey will be representing the East. no doubt about that. Brodeur is the only goalie out of the 8 who has the experience, and thats enough for them to get by.
maybe a rematch of Devils vs Stars this year. | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 5:12:20 AM | | Edmonton might steal one but Wings shouldnt have too much trouble with them unless Legace somehow chokes. | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 10:37:50 AM | | Buffalo is gonna be the team to watch out for.......very under-rated team this year | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 11:51:34 AM | It'll be hard for any team in the West to get by Detroit...my dark horse to come out of the west is San Jose. They have pretty good goaltending and lots of talent up front.
Out of the East I like Ottawa...if they make it out of the first round. If they start playing like they did at the beginning of the season with everyone healthy they'll be tough to beat even with Emery in goal. Darkhorse out of the east - With a goalie like Brodeur I'd give it to NJ at this point. They are playing playoff hockey right now and they have arguably the best playoff goalie ever. | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 7:14:17 PM | OK, here are my predictions:
Western Conference: Detroit over Edmonton in 5 games. Dallas over Colorado in 6 games. Calgary over Anaheim in 6 games. San Jose over Nashville in 5 games.
Eastern Conference: Ottawa over Tampa in 5 games (but I'm a Tampa fan so Tampa over Ottawa in 7 games). Carolina over Montreal in 6 games. New Jersey over New York Rangers in 7 games. Buffalo over Philadelphia in 5 games.
Anyone else care to venture some guesses? | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 7:26:07 PM | Riot.. I like most of your predictions But ,Ottawa will beat Tampa (in 6) I think NYR will beat The Devils in 6 And 7 games for Buffalo to get over Philly. | |
|
| |
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 7:51:43 PM | Edmonton in 6 on home ice............................biggest upset of the season.....wooooohoooo.......(i'm taking bets boys and girls :)...................... | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 8:44:32 PM | I'd like to see an old school Calgary-Edmonton match up..just like the old days  | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 8:52:53 PM | Det over Edm in 4 Dallas over Col in 7 Cal over Ana in 6 SJ over Nash in 7
Ottawa over tampa in 6 Car over Mon in 5 NJ over NYR in 4 Philly over Buff in 6 | |

| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 9:58:03 PM | Edmonton will NOT go in four straight. I say it will go at least 6. Plus, my Habs will take at least 2 from Carolina; but the way Carolina has been swooning of late, it could go 7. Speaking of swooning, I don't think the Flyers will go very far. In fact, I think Buffalo will surprise them in 6 or 7. | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/18/2006 10:41:36 PM | Now that my beloved Leafs are finally mercifully been put out to pasture...............
OK, here are my predictions:
Western Conference:
Detroit over Edmonton in 6 games...........(Edmonton will steal 2 at home)
Dallas over Colorado in 6 games..............(Before Colorado traded Goalies, I would have taken them in 6)
Calgary over Anaheim in 6 games........(Theres a possible upset here, Anaheim is young and extremely fast, the new rules will make it hard for Calgary to clutch and grab).
San Jose over Nashville in 6 games......(Reverse this pick if Nashville hadn't lost their Goalie for the season).
Eastern Conference:
Ottawa over Tampa in 5 games....(Hopefully the real Senator team will show up).
Carolina over Montreal in 6 games....(This is my other gut feeling upset, if Huet gets hot in net, don't be shocked if Montreal takes this in 6 or 7).
New Jersey over New York Rangers in 7 games......(do the math, goaltending is the difference).
Buffalo over Philadelphia in 7 games.....(This will be a war whoever wins will be ripe for the picking in round 2). | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/19/2006 7:05:25 PM | Eastern Conference:
Tampa over Ottawa in 5 games....(No Hasek no team).
Carolina over Montreal in 7 games
Rangers over NJ
Buffalo over Philadelphia  | |

| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/19/2006 10:15:04 PM | I'm glad to see there are others who believe in TBay. I was getting frustrated with their abysmal goaltending. I hope that won't be an issue come playoff time. I would really like to see the Sens get a first round sendoff!  | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/19/2006 10:46:29 PM | | no one would love to see the sens bow out in the first round but Grahme in net....trouble is brewing for tampa and theres no time to fix it | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/20/2006 5:01:12 AM | EASTERN CONFERENCE
TAMPA BAY vs OTTAWA ( ottawa in 7,the champs,wont let go easy) CAROLINA vs MONTRÉAL ( montréal in 6,hey ,were talking about the habs here ) NEW-YORK vs NEW-JERSEY ( new-jersey in 5,jarg,cant do everything all alone ) PHILADELPHIA vs BUFFALO ( buffalo in 5,the difference will be between the pipe's)
WESTERN CONFERENCE
EDMONTON vs DETROIT (detroit in 5,this is a no match ) COLORADO vs DALLAS (dallas in 5,theodore is done ) ANAHEIM vs CALGARY ( anaheim in 6,this will be the upset in the first round) SAN-JOSE vs NASHVILLE (san-jose in 6,thornton,cheechoo,marleau,to strong) | |
|
| Hockey Playoff Predictions Posted: 4/20/2006 7:21:37 AM | First off I am a huge Oilers fan, I think Edmonton has the team to beat Detroit but I still dont think they have the goaltending to do it. I would love to see them upset the Presidents Trophy winner but its gonna be a tough one!!
WEST Detroit over Edmonton in 6 games Dallas over Colorado in 5 ( Dallas is the gonna be tough to beat) Anaheim over Calgary in 7 ( If Anaheim finds a way to score Calgary doesnt have enough offense) San Jose over Nashville in 6 ( Good series but gotta go with big Joe)
EAST Ottawa over Tampa in 5 ( this might be a high scoring series) Carolina over Montreal in 7 ( Montreals goaltending is just too shaky) Jersey over Rangers in 6 ( Brodeaur will shine) Buffalo over Philly in 5 ( Philly will make it physical but Buffalo is just built for the new NHL) | |

i live in whitby and if they somehow go to seven, be my guest and come over here lol, but i highly doubt you will. I want Tampa to win..even sweep them..but Grahme...no go for the lightning. They are gonna have to win by scoring 5 or 6 goals each game | |
