NHL Playoff Predictions!

seaNsk · Post by **seaNsk** » Sun Apr 08, 2012 1:03 pm

Every year on another forum I frequent, we do hockey predictions. I figure if people want to do it, they can and if not oh well. Kind of fun and it promotes some hockey shit talking, which in my opinion is something 1911 lacks.

Lets see who is the smartest hockey guru in the DoD community.

Scoring:
1 point for getting the winner correct
2 points for the correct amount of games
0 For being incorrect.

On to the preds...

They don't play defense anyway so it doesn't really matter who's in net.

The Caps are supposed to be using their third goalie for the first round, not sure if Neuvirth (2nd Goalie) will be able to play at all the first round. Despite him being the third goalie he is actually pretty good though, I have seen both him and Neuvirth play and I honestly think he is the better of the two.

Here's your first awful call of the playoffs. No offsides and the goal was scored, and it's what rallied Philly to get back into the game.

But it's only game 1 sweet cheeks.

Well, the pens 3rd goal was off a blown icing call. So technically that was the first awful call. So it goes both ways.

How about that bs no call for icing that led to a goal? Calls go both ways brah. I called hartnell scoring the tying goal to the bar, thought I was psychic for a minute, sooo close.
Edit: Didn't read john's post before I posted. What he said. I can now forgive jgale for not shaking hands at the ny lan.

Can they finally stop underperforming? The philly boys will help you out a lot, but la needs to play better than last night. DIdn't they get like more than a periods worth of PP by the 3rd, and it was still tied? Still rooting for la, but COME ON.

And to add, The officiating has been really awful this playoff season. Lots of people believe that Shea Weber should have been suspended for the punch and hulk face smash on Henrik Zetterberg at the end of game 1 (Preds/Wings). Then to see them playing around with it @ practice after the ruling (2500$ fine).

Your Thoughts?

im glad they didn't suspend him. got caught up in the moment at the end of the game, zetterberg was ok, etc.
