^ I agree with most of that, although, I think Calgary has a good chance at getting past the first round. (in 7 with ALOT of OT.

)

Do you really need another hockey based thread?

TraceOddity · 09-04-2007, 05:02 PM

Sorry for the double-post, but WHERE'S MOOSIE???

It's no different than having separate threads for UEFA, the Champion's league or the World Cup. This thread's strictly for the Stanley Cup playoffs.

^ What she said. Last year we had a thread for the Playoffs too. http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/sho...hlight=stanley

My predictions are what I think will happen, not necessarily what I want to happen. I hope Calgary beats Detroit, and they definitely have the potential too. Pavel Datsyuk is Mr. Invisible come playoff times.

TraceOddity · 09-04-2007, 07:27 PM

^DEtroit's got more fire-power as far as goal-scoring goes as far as I know, but I'm optimistic. It'll come down to goalies, imo.(that's stating the obvious,lol.)

MrMagpie · 09-04-2007, 07:53 PM

haha....And Hasek vs. Kipper is a very interesting goalie match-up. It could really go either way.

Shaftell · 09-04-2007, 10:04 PM

Canucks and Dallas is going to be a super tough matchup. Battle of the goalies. Go Canucks Go!

amsterdam528 · 10-04-2007, 02:15 AM

I wouldn't be surprised if Buffalo swept the Islanders. They're missing their #1 goalie after all, and we've got the most potent offense in the league.

MrMagpie · 10-04-2007, 02:32 AM

I don't think a sweep is out of the question for the Sabres.

And Canucks Dallas should be a good matchup. But Marty Turco is Mr. Choke come playoffs.
