I would NEVER pick the Hurricanes over the Devils, you never bet against Marty Brodeur in the first round, espeically when that team won all those games with backup goalies most of the season. The Devils are the team that will give Boston the hard time, not Washington. Ovechkin will wear down and they don't have the goalies, and the battle of Pennsylvania will take its toll on the winner.
I'm not unhappy about it at all :bounce: Ducks ruled their second win !!Quote:

Hey, not a single mention about Juniors.... Like how Finland whiped Canada's arse in Championships by taking the bronze in a shoot-out :D
It's the under 18's...the ugly step child of the World Championship levels. The World's are not a big deal to us over here, since most of the top pro's are busy with NHL playoffs, and us Canadians get cranked only for the Under 20's (WJHC).Quote:

Also BTCC, congrats to your British team. It does seem you guys are starting to come to the top of that pool. Maybe 10 years from now they are in the A pool at the Olympics and World Championships.
Go Flames go :dozey:
Well, at least OJ finally what was suppose to do in the team....
Habs out, hurray....
Schmenke...look at the bright side. One, you are cheering for a team close to you. Two, the Hab's were life and death to make the playoffs, so it isnt' like you didn't have time to prepare for it. Three, Gainey will have half of these stiffs gone next year and you get an almost Brand spanking new team next year. What is more, you could have a Quebec owner ( although Gillett has been a really good owner really ) who might change the direction of the club.Quote:

As for me...I was going to root for Calgary at the start of the playoffs and the Bruins were always a favourite in this burg since we were once the junior team affiliated with the B's ( hence the Orr, Middleton, O'Reilly, Cashman, Awrey connection)
Sharks (and thornton) dissapointing again. The moment the important times come, he disappears.
It is the reason he will NEVER be any more than a bit player on the Canadian Olympic team next year, if he is asked to come out for it at all. Many in the hockey community figured this was the year he had to put up or shut up. He has shut up it appears. He would make a perfect Montreal Canadien....lolQuote:
