I'm not feeling too good about picking Philly in the finals after that game...


I say the rivalry might halt the Pens from a blow-out of the series. But yeah... Pittsburgh had a pretty solid second half of the season. If it wasn't for a long stumble getting there, they might be higher up on the rankings. I mean, they placed 5th in the East after scoring at least a point in about 90% of their games since February. They could've easily been near the top if their first half of the season had been that good.

Edit: Once upon a time, my Dad (a big Habs fan) was so sure of the Habs winning the Cup in the late 90s (they had made it to the Conference Finals in one of those years) that he painted "Cup Winners" on a Montreal hat. Then they proceeded to lose every game left in that series and haven't been the same since.

So... I shouldn't be making cock-sure predictions about the Pens beating Philly.

Maybe the Sharks will get a head start on their collapse by going out in the first round.

Bruins and Habs both look good. Could be a long series.

It's about quality, not quantity. I thought I already had this discussion.

I find it pretty incredible that Washington lost both their first two games. They seemed like such a strong team going into the playoffs, and they're playing the Rangers who have struggled near the end. And to lose both the first two games at HOME is just so weird to me. I'm wondering how they could possibly win this series now...

Peace,
Mike

Washington's just shooting from everywhere. It's easy to get a lot of shots when you're not really trying to score goals.

Though Lundqvist has been superb.

The Caps are fucked. They're the Penguins of two years ago.

I watched half of the second period of tonight's Red Wings/Blue Jackets game. It was like the Red Wings were playing against a Pee-Wee team.

Does Columbus really have 7 penalties in the 3rd period?

Detroit's playing a team that's never been in the playoffs. It's not like they're really being challenged.

Flyers needed that one.

I hope at least some of these series will be close. I have bad memories of last year, post-round one, when nearly every series was a blowout right from the start.

Hey, I said nice-ish things about the Red Wings a few posts up. They were more anti-Columbus than anything, but I still complimented Detroit.

San Jose and Washington can't handle the playoffs.

The Caps were told the playoffs didn't start until this week.

The Habs were told the playoffs don't start until 2014.
