[NHL] 07-08 Playoffs

The matchups, my picks for round 1 in bold

Eastern Conference
(1) Montreal Canadiens vs. (8) Boston Bruins
(2) Pittsburgh Penguins vs. (7) Ottawa Senators
(3) Washington Capitals vs. (6) Philadelphia Flyers
(4) New Jersey Devils vs. (5) New York Rangers

Western Conference
(1) Detroit Red Wings vs. (8) Nashville Predators
(2) San Jose Sharks vs. (7) Calgary Flames
(3) Minnesota Wild vs. (6) Colorado Avalanche
(4) Anaheim Ducks vs. (5) Dallas Stars


I'm betting sharks/flames will be the most entertaining matchup of the first round.

Glad to see someone else picked Calgary to upset, my friends all laughed at me when I picked them.

Just a little side note. Tampa Bay won the 1st pick in the Draft Lottery.

Not sure if this is sarcasm or not. While I'd like to see Washington go deep, they're not all that great of a team. If Ovechkin can get shut down even for a game or two, that'll be enough to punt them. Like it or not, if one player either scores or assists on nearly half your goals, you're probably not going to be successful.

That said, Ovechkin may well be unstoppable for a round or two, so they might well surprise a team or two.

Well, I don't think anybody is picking them to win the Cup, but to beat the Flyers? easily.

Maggie the Monkey picked the flyers!

The fighting Ovechkins could beat the flyers but certainly not easily, it's not like the capitals are bringing a wealth of playoff experience to this matchup.

Liver League 2008

http://minervafoundation.ca/liverlea...eagueRules.pdf

Really cool hockey pool I enter with my bro and a few friends. The way points are done makes things very interesting: two years ago naturally anyone who had Oilers cleaned the fuck up because of the double points (Pronger and Roloson were worth a ridiculous amount of points), while last year it was much more of a mixed bag since front runners made the finals.

Fuck who am I kidding? I go because the place is overstaffed with hot waitresses so they can sit in your lap and call out your picks for you.
