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!

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 !

    • Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 by Razvan Serea Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) is a utility for completely removing AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL graphics drivers and related packages from your system, attempting to eliminate all leftovers (including registry entries, folders and files, driver store). Though AMD/NVIDIA/INTEL drivers can usually be removed via the Windows Control Panel, this uninstaller tool was created for situations where standard uninstall fails, or when you need to fully remove NVIDIA or ATI graphics card drivers. After using this driver cleaner, your system will behave as though it’s the first time you’re installing a new driver—similar to a fresh Windows installation. As with all such tools, we recommend creating a restore point beforehand, allowing you to undo changes if issues arise. If you're having trouble installing an older or newer driver, try it—there are reports that it resolves such problems. Recommended usage: The tool can be used in Normal mode but for absolute stability when using DDU, Safemode is always the best. Make a backup or a system restore (but it should normally be pretty safe). It is best to exclude the DDU folder completely from any security software to avoid issues. You do NOT need to uninstall the driver prior using DDU. Requirements: .NET Framework 4.8 Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11 (32-bit or 64-bit) Note: Using on Insider Preview builds is at your own risk. Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) 18.1.5.5 changelog: Added 'Reset to recommended' button for the Options. General fixes and improvements.

WACUP 1.99.51.24568 Preview changelog: Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when doing some of the drag + drop actions within the media library window Fixed a loading crash seen related to a problem with some of the artwork cache image files being restored which should now be better handled allowing for the bad image to be removed without it failing Fixed a deadlock seen from the recent crash reports when the internal metadata cache clearing is triggered which could block the main ui thread for too long with this now being moved to a background thread Fixed some performance issues with some of the methods related to determining artwork support which mainly affected the local library import / refresh (this is still slower for some compared to other players because there's more data & artwork aspects being checked for which means doing more processing on a single file despite the best of attempts to reduce duplicate / heavy processing where possible) Fixed a crash with the JTFE based missing files hotkey which no one seems to have used for an age for this to appear (maybe it's time to seriously consider stripping out features that aren't being used) Fixed how some of the file types which use extra information to reference their sub-songs is handled which was preventing some from being correctly resolved back to their base file (noticed fixing above) Fixed an issue with the handling of files with underscores in their filepath which wasn't being correctly handled causing some of the filename to be lost when shown as the title if title reading is delayed Fixed a few things that might be behind NotSoDirect not being stable for some setups though am still not certain that the changes done for this are going to fully resolve the problem from the crash reports Fixed the OS toast handling when there's no prior shortcut in the OS start menu to now create the shortcut (needed to allow the yes/no buttons for the new build / post-release toast) to be done as a hidden one so it's less likely to cause annoyance for those not wanting to see it whilst still allowing this less than ideal OS api implementation requirement to be met to avoid toasts without the needed buttons Fixed a regression when moving from taglib1 to taglib2 which broke some of the handling in place to allow for external programs to still access files when wacup has a held open cached instance of the file Everything else Updated cppwinrt (gen_win10shell.dll) to 3.0.260520.1 (26 May 2026) Updated libcurl (libcurl.dll) to 8.2.1 (24 Jun 2026) Updated Monkey's Audio (in_ape.dll) to 13.15 (28 Jun 2026) Updated mpg123 (mpg123.dll) to 1.33.6 (6 Jun 2026) Updated OpenSSL (libcurl.dll) to 3.5.7 (9 Jun 2026) Updated pugixml to 1.16 (16 Jun 2026) Updated taglib (tag2.dll) to 2.3.0 (11 May 2026) Updated vgmstream (in_vgmstream.dll) to the latest Git commit from 28 Jun 2026 Download: WACUP 64-bit | 9.6 MB (Freeware) Download: WACUP 32-bit View: WACUP Website | Screenshots Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
