Question by mjr2013 --- Tigers in 2012!!: What are your NHL playoff predictions?
Right here is mine:
EAST QUARTERFINALS
1 Boston Bruins
vs.
8 Montreal Canadians
The Scoop: A rematch of last years matchup with the rankings reversed. This is turning into a good rivalry. Bruins will get their revenge. Boston in 7.
four Pittsburgh Penguins
vs.
5 Philadelphia Flyers
The Scoop: With the Penguins losing Hossa in the offseason, and their new coach currently being an "everyone's a winner!" sort of man, I never believe they are tough adequate to beat the Flyers. Flyers in 6.
three New Jersey Devils
vs.
6 Carolina Hurricanes
The Scoop: New Jersey is slumping, while Carolina is rocking. Brouder helps make this intriguing although. Carolina in 6.
2 Washington Capitals
vs.
7 New York Rangers
The Scoop: The Capitals are a one-man group (Alexander Ovechkin) and you can not win playoff games (or at least a series) like that. Rangers in 5.
WEST QUARTERFINALS
one San Jose Sharks
vs.
eight Anaheim Ducks
The Scoop: The Sharks have been relaxing in the previous couple months simply because they knew they were in. The Ducks, even so, have been playing playoff hockey for the previous 2 months to get in. Even so, the Sharks are just a much better group. Sharks in 7.
four Chicago Blackhawks
vs.
five Calgary Flames
The Scoop: The 'Hawks truly messed up when they showed that video clip montage at the last game. I believe however the Flames have messed up far more in the final six weeks. They have Sucked. They really have forgotton how to win and this will lead Chi-town to a win. Chicago in five.
3 Vancouver Canucks
vs.
six St.Louis Blues
The Scoop: The Blues do not have considerably offense... or defense... But they have a goalie!!! That can get them fairly far, but not far enough. I nonetheless will not like the method that puts the division leaders at one, 2, and three! (They ought to put it in order of factors and then if there is no person of one particular division in the leading eight, put them in 8th!!!) Anyway, Vancouver in 6.
2 Detroit Red Wings
vs.
seven Columbus Blue Jackets
The Scoop: This 1 will not be close. You have to shed before you can win (search at final many years Stanley Cup Last!) Columbus will become even much more p***** with Michigan. Detroit in a sweep.
EAST SEMI-FINALS
1 Boston Bruins
vs.
seven New York Rangers
The Scoop: The Rangers beat the Capitals since the Capitals arn't an all-around group. The Bruins are. Boston in a sweep.
five Philadelphia Flyers
vs.
six Carolina Hurricanes
The Scoop: Carolina will retain rolling via the Flyers. Hurricanes in 6.
WEST SEMI-FINALS
1 San Jose Sharks
vs.
four Chicago Blackhawks
The Scoop: The Sharks have skidded toward the playoffs (mostly due to the fact they had been in the playoffs 2 months ago!) but they arn't utilized to taking part in at a hundred%. Chicago is a young group that is utilized to it. Chicago in 7.
two Detroit Red Wings
vs.
3 Vancouver Canucks
The Scoop: What are Cunucks????? Anyway, plain and basic, they arn't as good as the Wings. D-Town in 5.
EAST FINALS
one Boston Bruins
vs.
six Carolina Hurricanes
The Scoop: Boston is impressive. They will simply beat the rolling Hurricanes. Bruins in five.
WEST FINALS
two Detroit Red Wings
vs.
four Chicago Blackhawks
