National Hockey League 2007-08 Stanley Cup Playoffs


Recommended Posts

My picks, since we're doing that I guess hehe

1Montreal vs 8Boston = Montreal (I don't like them after this round however)

2Pittsburgh vs 7Ottawa = Pittsburgh (The Penguins have too much going for them, the Sens are spiraling downwards)

3Washington vs 6Flyers = Washington (I'm pulling for the Caps like no other team right now)

4NJ vs NY = 5New Jersey (Close one, but the Devils have Brodeur, and NY doesn't)

1Detroit vs 8Nashville = Detroit (Great team, but will they get production from Datsyuk, Zetts, and Hasek?)

2San Jose vs 7Calgary = Calgary (Very tough choice, but Calgary has a playoff team)

3Minnesota vs 6Colorado = Colorado (The Avs have more depth because of the deadline, and more experience)

4Anaheim vs 5Stars = Anaheim (Anaheim could win the cup again)

We have similar picks :p

You actually think that Nashville is going to beat Detroit? :|

Cup picks

West: Anaheim

East: Pittsburgh

Stanley Cup: Anaheim

I hope they don't though, cause I hate Anaheim.

Lets go bruins!

Yeah, go home Bruins! Oh wait, that's not what you meant, is it? ;)

I'll laugh when your Habs don't make it past the 2nd round.

I'll laugh if your team doesn't make it past the first round... oh yeah, they're not playing. :p

You expect to win the cup with a rookie goalie?

Dryden? Roy? They never won any cups in their rookie years?

Ok, my picks lol

1. Montreal Canadiens vs. 8. Boston Bruins = Montreal Canadiens

2. Pittsburgh Penguins vs. 7. Ottawa Senators = Pittsburgh Penguins (Sens have been going down hill)

3. Washington Capitals vs. 6. Philadelphia Flyers = Philadelphia Flyers

4. New Jersey Devils vs. 5. New York Rangers = New Jersey Devils

Western Conference

1. Detroit Red Wings vs. 8. Nashville Predators = Detroit Red Wings

2. San Jose Sharks vs. 7. Calgary Flames = Calgary Flames (Go Flames!)

3. Minnesota Wild vs. 6. Colorado Avalanche = Colorado Avalanche

4. Anaheim Ducks vs. 5. Dallas Stars = Dallas Stars

East = Montreal Canadiens

West = Detroit Red Wings (Though I want the Flames)

Cup = Montreal Canadiens (Once again, I want the cup here. I was to young the last time Calgary won lol)

Just as long as its not the ducks. I hate the ducks. Wish Vancouver however was in place of the Preds

you are from calgary and you like van... that doesn't make sense. and the ducks are amazing!

I like Vancouver for some reason lol They aren't my favourite team or anything (The Flames are), But they aren't too bad. I just really don't like the Preds or Ducks. I think its mostly because of the movies, but just really don't like them lol

@Joel

Fair enough we didn't make the playoffs, but we didn't have the horses to do much this year, we all know that.

I'm not saying that Price isn't a great goalie. Just looking at the past isn't going to make him a Dryden or Roy, even though he is playing in Hab country. Those aforementioned goaltenders honed their skills as rookies in a different age and it's much tougher these days.

Let's just say that Montreal wins the East (which I doubt), they will have to go against a West team that is built for the playoffs. Your team hasn't changed much from last year (you even lost Souray) and I'm not sure why everyone is expecting a cup. Teams like San Jose, Calgary, and Anaheim have teams that are built to win playoff series, teams that have toughness and grit. You go up against Anaheim and who is going to step up to the plate and play physical? They'll knock Kovalev and your talented Euros into next week. (Why do you think Vancouver is too soft, because we have too many damn Swedes!)

The West is a completely different conference, and when it comes playoff time, the West will win the Stanley cup again.

I don't hate Montreal, I quite like them actually, I just don't see them winning a cup. Rookie goalie, Koivu injured, little toughness.

Let me hear your thoughts too because, I'm just one person, and of course can be wrong ;)

Here are mine! Can't wait for tonight:

Montreal vs Boston = Montreal

Pittsburgh vs Ottawa = Pittsburgh

Washington vs Flyers = Washington

NJ vs NY = New Jersey

Detroit vs Nashville = Detroit

San Jose vs Calgary = Calgary

Minnesota vs Colorado = Minnesota

Anaheim vs Stars = Stars

^ really, the stars, i am going to enjoy throwing that back in your face...

ha, little toughness, i love it when people say that about us and koivu will be back very soon, don't worry. Boston thinks we ain't tough either and tries to hammer us, but we all know how that worked out all year, same with philly. We have the most balanced attack in the league and the most under rated defensive in the league. Komi is a machine and he is going to be 100 percent when he is back. Keep doubting my team, everyone has all year and i love it.

I agree the west is stronger, doesn't take a genious to see that, but i think montreal can take any team in the west one on one no problem, especially after they beat the crap out of eachother for a month and a half.

hah, the Bruins looked like deer caught in a whole bunch of headlights last night :rofl:

Caps game starting in 45mins, go Caps!!

Anaheim lost, but there has been some really bad officiating (including the Calgary game) in these playoffs so far.

GO HABS GO :)

Tonight's game was crazy. Definately not as easy as last game. The Bruins showed up for the game alot more confident and they never let go. The Canadiens will definately need to step up in their power play. It's great that they are able to beat the bruins so easily at even strength but with the power play goals on top of that, that would be amazing !

Habs will pass the 1st round without a doubt but it will be a whole different story against the Penguins !

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.
