2012 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs

[X_box_X]

Vancouver 4-1 LA
St Louis 2-4 San Jose
Phoenix 4-3 Chicago
Nashville 4-1 Detroit
New York 4-0 Ottawa
Boston 4-3 Washington
Florida 1-4 New Jersey
Pittsburgh 2-4 Philadelphia

I will literally spew if those results happen.

Thanks for making me look like a stooge, Brades.

My tips re done.

East
New York 4 - 2 Ottawa - Great turnaround from the Sens but Rags too good in 6 closely contested games.
Boston 4 - 1 Washington - Just don't rate the Caps much anymore.
Florida 1 - 4 New Jersey - Goaltending the difference here.
Pittsburgh 4 - 3 Philadelphia - Pens in a brutal 7 game series. Can see this being very high scoring.

West
Vancouver 4 - 2 Los Angeles - Will be a tight series. Kings will need something big from Richards to support Kopitar but I can't see it.
St Louis 4 - 1 San Jose - Blues almost unbeatable at home, very strong on the road. Sharks will make a go of it and make a 4-1 loss as tight as possible but they won't really be in it.
Phoenix 2 - 4 Chicago Come on Smitty I hope you can do it for the greater good of the hockey world. Brain says Hawks in 6.
Nashville 3 - 4 Detroit - 2 reasons. First, homer. Second, Wings almost healthy after a disastrous last 6 weeks with injury so we finally have a team out on the ice that can actually win a game. Mule needs to start kicking.

Best predictions I have read here.

I agree with all your results from a win-loss perspective. I do, however, think Ovekchin can lead the Capitals into a respectable game seven loss.

I also think Detroit takes care of business in game six, winning the series 4-2.

I like how no-one is giving Florida a hope in hell of winning their series. Will laugh very hard if Fatso and Kovy fail during the series and the Devs lose.

I said Panthers in 6

Badminton on instead of a first game of the playoffs.

Nice work FoxSports.

Even worse, NRL replays on FS2.

Took Crosby all of 3 min 43 sec to open the scoring for the playoffs.

 

[danzan22]

So i bought NHL GCL just for the playoffs and am now being told that my local stations are covering it?!? I can't see anything on foxtel, so i would like to see this station which covers it.

So happy right now. Sid scores, Duper's point streak continues, Cryers are getting upset and whining. It's just an awesome start to the series.

 

[Drummond]

Babcock is a *.

Scratching Nyquist over Emmerton?

Give me strength.

Love that playoff hockey has returned.

East
New York 4 - 2 Ottawa - King Henrik has just been too good this year and who can trust Mr. Anderson
Boston 4 - 3 Washington - I'd love the Caps to win, but they just don't look like a great team
Florida 2 - 4 New Jersey - Florida? Really? 38-44 record
Pittsburgh 4 - 3 Philadelphia - Best matchup of the round. If Crosby gets into too many scrums it may be 4-3 the other way

West
Vancouver 4 - 1 Los Angeles - the Kings can't score.
St Louis 4 - 3 San Jose - Toss up. The waning Charks will be hungry, but the Blues have played great hockey this year
Phoenix 2 - 4 Chicago - Toews return will make a big difference to the Hawks, even though everyone will get sick of watching him
Nashville 4 - 3 Detroit - wishful thinking I expect, but Rinne might just steal this one

At least we get Kings/Nucks later

 

[SebastianVettel]

We're not calling offsides anymore? That call was beyond sickening.

Just hopeless.

 

[scottyjc]

How was the ring of the pipe from Staal!

 

[Drummond]

Wow what a play by Philly. Tie game.

Schenn having a huge game.

 

[The Passenger]

wtf!! left my desk at 3-1. fetch an apple from the fridge, quick chat about some work shite... sit down and 3 all

 

[TheStinger]

Darren Helm looks like has a gash on his arm and he had to go to hospital. Laid a hit and the Pred's players skate came up and got him on the arm.

 

[Bring back Moloney]

First game in & I already wanna kill myself!!!!!

 

[SebastianVettel]

This team with a lead.....

Paul Martin, **** off.

 

[TheStinger]

Yeah Martin has been lolly gagging for the entire game. Make a hit, skate harder, just do something you lazy git.

Damn, he can't take a trick.

 

[Drummond]

Playoff OT, sooo much fun (when it's not your team ).

This game is ridiculous, bury your chances!!!

 

[The Passenger]

****en bollocks

 

[Drummond]

Game over. Freaking idiots.

 

[SebastianVettel]

****ing duds.

 

[TheStinger]

How do you blow a 3-0 lead at home? Just crud defending.
