The Wild and Vancouver are going at it right now, and unfortunately, the Canucks are leading 2 to the Wilds 1.

/me does a little dance around the room....
And the Wild pull an AMAZING comeback after being down 3-1 in the series. So let's recap, Matt and I are 4/4 in predictions and DJ's second team the Stars and dreams of an all Canadian final are out the window. Predictions for next round? Right now I am satisfied and I don't really care what happens beyond this but ideally I would want New Jersey to beat Ottowa and Minnesota to beat the Ducks. If the Ducks win (which would be fine with my Californianess) then I'd cheer for them too. It's all about the West baby! |
I really do not want to say this, but the west is going down this year. The Wild and the Ducks?! That is such a joke.
East Wild over the Ducks in 7 (Probably a down 3-1 comeback :p) West Senators over Devils in 6 |
Hahahahahahaha! DJ - Never doubt the Hockey god and Godess!
East: Ottawa vs. New Jersey - This is a hard match up to call. Between the teams they have played, and both their styles of play, they are about even. Ottawa is playing for a right to stay in Canada (money issues) and New Jersey is just playing for the cup. I'm gonna have to say New Jersey thanks to a coin flip.. New Jersey in 7 West: Anaheim vs. Minnsoeta - Wow. Who ever thought that these 2 teams would make it past the quarter finals? The Ducks have had a little while off compared to the Wild. The wild are all beat up thanks to Vancouver, while the Ducks have been resting. Mabye too long the Ducks have rested. This is also hard to call. They both have excellent goal tending, but I'm gonna have to say Ducks will win it thanks to their style of playing. Ducks in 5 |

You are no hockey god :p You think the Devils will still win even though the Ottawa Senators are playing for the right to remain as the Ottawa Senators? I think you are nuts, but time will only tell... Hey if the Sens lose and get moved we will get to see the new Houston team play while at the championships next year :D :p |
Wild in 1.
:D |

Here is my final prediction: Ducks vs. Devils: Wow. What a year the Ducks had. From 7th seed to the finals. NJ is tired from the long series with the Sens. Ducks may be rusty thanks to the 12 or so days off they have had, but they should be back in 1-2 games. Both their playing styles are pretty much the same. Fast. The Devils are more of a physical team, but the Ducks showed they can take a check or two when they played the Stars. Ducks in 5 ::Edit:: So far for my predictions - I am 100%. Take what ever DJ says w/ a grain of salt! |
One word: Jiggy!

Ok I haven't had the best of luck in calling these playoff series this year, but the ducks have so many coincidences to the 1996 Florida Panthers. What does this mean? The 1996 Florida Panthers and the 2003 Mighty Ducks have the same GM. Also The Florida Panthers were not expected to make it to the finals, they beat the heavily favored Pittsburgh Penguins in 7 games. The Panthers had very little outstanding talent...the only reason they survived is because of the superb play of their goalie, John Vanbiesbrouck. The Panthers made it to the finals and then they were beaten down badly in 4 games by arguably (ESPN said this) one of the greatest Playoff Teams of all time (Colorado Avalanche ;)) with a goalie who had a few cups already. Even though Giguere and Brodeur ranked 1 and 2 respectively, Broudeur already has 2 stanley cups since 1995 (1995, 2000). Broduer has the experience and the Ducks are setting themselves up for a total meltdown. When Tuesday hits, the Ducks haven't played a team in 10 days. Which means Giguere hasn't seen a shot from an opponent in 10 days. The Ducks are going to be over rested and about as rusty as and 81 Chevette.
My Final Prediction Devils in 6 |

Anyone else find it funny/cool/interesting that the Nets and Devils are both in their respective finals? ESPN said it was the first time the NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Finals have been in the same arena since 1994, when the Knicks and Rangers had that honor. |
I just don't see the Ducks losing the Cup this year. New Jersey will put up a fight, but the way Anaheim's been playing, I just have a feeling that they won't lose.
Anaheim in five. |
So from this all, I learned that my best bet is using flawed logic to make my predictions so this is why the Ducks will win the Stanley Cup.
*If they're good enough to beat my beloved Wild who are from my homestate of Minnesota. If my team can't win, I want them to win. *The team was created based off of a movie that was based in Minnesota, ergo they redeem themselves for beating the Wild. *They're from Southern California, as am I. Give us a little something...the Lakers couldn't hack it, we don't have a football team, and we'll see if the Angels can pull of another miraculous win again. *West Coast Pride! *The simple fact that it will greatly anger DJ is good enough for me :) |
Anaheim in 6
