NHL CFC Playoffs Pool III

Tonight - the ultimate showdown. We shall prove why there are so many leaf fans.

(and Im more worried about losing to nashville than calgary winning)

As long as the next canadian team to win isnt the canucks (detroit cant win either but I can like florida again!) I'm happy. And it WILL be soon.
NSH vs OTT '07
TML vs COL (not CBJ) '08!
 
Nah the Habs will win it all.

25 my freinds, 25.

you are all invited to participate in the riot after the Habs win it!
 
Montreal is going to be hellish tonight. :shake:

It's a good thing I don't have a Leafs jersey, because I'd be tempted to wear it, and then it would get all bloodied and ruined.
 
Count me in with my limited hockey knowledge.

You don't need to know a lot to do well. After all, Maggie the Monkey finished third last year, and all she did was spin a giant wheel.
 
I'm in (10 char)
 
Message to all of you who know who you are: ITS ON!

!!!.

Do any of you remember in 2004 when Theodore played Raycroft to win in 7? They were amazing then. Now with my two favorite teams, they suck...
 
Since all but one matchup is decided, I'm going to go ahead and post my picks. I'll edit this post when Buffalo's opponent is known.

East
(1)Buffalo 4 vs. (8)NY Islanders 1 - A streaking Islanders team manages to win a game in what very well could be a sweep
(2)New Jersey 4 vs. (7)Tampa Bay 1 - Brodeur leads the Devils through a quick five game series
(3)Atlanta 2 vs. (6)NY Rangers 4 - Atlanta fails to make the most of their first trip to the playoffs
(4)Ottawa 4 vs. (5)Pittsburgh 2 - Pittsburgh puts in a good effort, but Ottawa ends up the better team

West
(1)Detroit 3 vs. (8)Calgary 4 - Detroit chokes in the first round once again
(2)Anaheim 3 vs. (7)Minnesota 4 - Minnesota sneaks past the Ducks in seven games
(3)Vancouver 4 vs. Dallas 2 - Turco chokes while Luongo leads the Canucks to the Semis
(4)Nashville 3 vs. (5)San Jose 4 - San Jose takes the rematch, but the Predators make a much better showing than last year
 
I'm really not sure. But a bunch of our population only lives in the Yukon for a while. People who want a fancy job or a high education leave, people who want work in an 'exotic' environment come in. So lots of Ontarians have arrived here.

Also, Toronto and Montreal have very large fanbases throughout most of the country.
 
(1)Buffalo 4 vs. (8)NYI 1 - Buffalo. By a lot. NYI's momentum wins them game one. Exhausion loses them eveything else against a fast Sabres team.
(2)New Jersey 4 vs. (7)Tampa Bay 0 - Tampa Bay doesnt get close to enough of anything and falls in a sweep to NJ.
(3)Atlanta 4 vs. (6)NY Rangers 3 -Lack of playoff experience hurts Thrashers, but they come up (barely) to move on.
(4)Ottawa 4 vs. (5)Pittsburgh 2 - Pittsburgh has a very diverse team, with everyone either old veterans or young guns with no playoff experience. They mistakenly play the veterans too much, and lose in 6.

West
(1)Detroit 2 vs. (8)Calgary 4 - Calgary begins their path of making a canadain team represent the west AGAIN (not vancouver, I would cheer for pittsburgh over them)
(2)Anaheim 4 vs. (7)Minnesota 3 - Minnesota holds out well, but eventually falls in 7.
(3)Vancouver 3 vs. (6) Dallas 4 - cannot EVER say Van to win. I refuse, it is against my morals and ethics.
(4)Nashville 4 vs. (5)San Jose 2 - Always one for playoff upsets, San Jose does well but fall short.
 
East
(1)Buffalo 4 vs. (8)NY Islanders 1
(2)New Jersey 4 vs. (7)Tampa Bay 0
(3)Atlanta 3 vs. (6)NY Rangers 4
(4)Ottawa 3 vs. (5)Pittsburgh 4

West
(1)Detroit 4 vs. (8)Calgary 1
(2)Anaheim 3 vs. (7)Minnesota 4
(3)Vancouver 4 vs. (6)Dallas 2
(4)Nashville 4 vs. (5)San Jose 3

I'll edit it in my East picks when Toronto/NYI is settled.
 
@j_eps- Your refusal to support the Canucks will be your undoing... :p

Picks coming after the TOR/NYI thing is settled.
 
I would sooner support Detroit! No I wouldnt. If the playoffs were Detroit vs Vancouver id support Vancouver. THey are only #29 on my list.
 
Right, I was wating for the fat lady to sing before I made my picks, and now that she has I'm ready to go.


BUF/NYI - Buffalo in 6
NJ/TB - New Jersey in 7
ATL/NYR - Rangers in 6
OTT/PIT - Pittsburgh in 7
DET/CAL - Calgary in 6
ANA/MIN - Anaheim in 6
VAN/DAL - Dallas in 7
NAS/SJ - Nashville in 7
