Post subject: | NHL Playoffs 2019 |
I'm very close to being a chalk-playing bitch! 3 of these picks will be wrong. EASTERN CONFERENCE Tampa Bay Lightning (A1) vs. Columbus Blue Jackets (WC2) Tampa in 5- Bob steals a game. Should be entertaining but Tampa is just too good. Boston Bruins (A2) vs. Toronto Maple Leafs (A3) Boston in 5- Wanna say a sweep but Boston will do something stupid one game and give Toronto a lot of PP time. Andersen has been playing poorly. Hope this series gets nasty. Washington Capitals (M1) vs. Carolina Hurricanes (WC1) Washington in 6- Business as usual for Washington New York Islanders (M2) vs. Pittsburgh Penguins (M3) Pittsburgh in 5- The Pens are peaking at the right time. Murray is playing well. WESTERN CONFERENCE Nashville Predators (C1) vs. Dallas Stars (WC2) Nashville in 4- Meh Winnipeg Jets (C2) vs. St. Louis Blues (C3) Winnipeg in 7- Would love to see the upset here. I don't think Hellebuyck is good enough to win a Cup. Calgary Flames (P1) vs. Colorado Avalanche (WC1) Calgary in 6- A series I have absolutely no time for. San Jose Sharks (P2) vs. Vegas Golden Knights (P3) Vegas in 7- If San Jose only had a goalie…. Wish this series wasn't played in the Pacific Time zone. |

I will be at least slightly shocked if Tampa doesn’t run roughshod straight to The Cup. |

I think all of the lower seeds in the West have a legit shot in Round 1, but from there, it's a toss-up. Either way, barring injury, I don't see anyone in either conference beating the Bolts. |

I certainly don't think that's going to happen this year, but I don't see why they can't drop a best-of-seven to Boston, Pittsburgh, or Washington, or get goalied by the Isles in the conference final. I'm still a little skeptical of the Bolts; they should have won one by now but they haven't. |

Jackets up 2-0 in the first |

Minooka Meatball wrote: Jackets up 2-0 in the first Yes. YES. You gotta love this from the perspective of keeping any team from bumping off the '13 Hawks as the best season of a generation. Drop in on Pens-Isles if you haven't yet, the Nassau crowd is electric. They're erupting over Pittsburgh icing it. |

The Nassau Coliseum really is the platonic ideal of an NHL venue: it's a dank old building (even with the recent cosmetic work) full of ornery suburbanites listening to shopworn Rolling Stones and Rush songs through a crappy p.a. system. Sucks that they'll have to play any further rounds in Brooklyn with their slushy PVC-cooled ice and their dead crowds. |

Jackets 3-0. If this holds, I sure hope there isn't a repeat of last year... |

Great Christ, Jackets just smothering the Bolts - should have been the other way around. 5-1. Game is over at this point. |

Tampa has Columbus right where they want em, once the Bluejackets return home and remember, "oh, yeah, we're Columbus, we don't win playoff series" Vegas took a 3-0 lead and chased Jones 6 minutes in...and then proceeded to cough up that 3 goal lead by the end of the 1st period. Jets-Blues tied 3-3 after 2 periods. Jets out-hitting the Blues 62 to 37 in the series. Blues PP zero for 6 in the first 5 periods, Jets 2-4. Laine's scored as many goals in the last 2 games (2) as he did in the previous 20. |

Columbus is looking great. Vasi is letting in soft goals and everything Torts is touching is turning to gold. Very happy with the Blues as well. What a turnaround this season. Looking forward to the Toronto/Boston tilt today. |

Hey look - It’s Mike Smith! Didn’t know he was in Calgary; thought he was out of the league. Makes me want to see the Flames lose now. |

I thought he’d get two but the NHL is loathe to suspend stars in playoffs. On the other hand, Nazir Kadri might of started his vacation tonight. |
