The second season is just about ready to start! Now, the right fun begins!
Eastern Conference First Round:
- Boston v. Montreal: Tough call, loyalty v. what is the right pick. So, I am going with the Bruins. If the Havs win I will be happier. Boston is too tough.
- Washington v. New York Rangers: Time for an upset pick – I’m going with the Rangers!
- New Jersey v. Carolina: Have to give the nod to the Devils.
- Pittsburgh v. Philly: Toss up, but I am going with the Penguins.
Western Conference First Round:
- San Jose v. Anaheim: Sharks have looked good all season, very dangerous match up. I am going with the Sharks.
- Detriot v. Columbus: Hockey town in a sweep.
- Vancouver v. St. Louis: Looking at this one as a good series, but the Canucks should win.
- Chicago v. Calgary: Another 4/5 series that is a toss up. I like the Chicago feel good story. Have to go with the Blackhawks in a 7 gamer.
Round 2 and semi-finals – Eastern Conference
- Boston v. NY Rangers – got to go with NY Rangers. My heart winning out!
- NJ Devils v. Pittsburgh – Devils should win this one. Defense is too tough.
- Devils v. Rangers – Winner of the Eastern Conference will be the NJ Devils.
Round 2 and semi-finals – Western Conference
- San Jose v. Chicago – staying with the favorite – Sharks!
- Detriot v. Vancouver – again staying with the favorite – Red Wings.
- Sharks v. Red Wings – now this is the match up that most want to see. The number 1 and 2 teams going at it. I have to give the Sharks a slight edge.
Finals:
- New Jersey v. San Jose – definitely an interesting match up. I predict the Devils winning in 6 games.
Your thoughts?
So – Looking back at my finals picks.. I suck. Both lost in the first round. Boy, am I glad I kept my money in my pocket!
