twi Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 On the eve of this grand spectacle, I think I'm going with Washington, Pittsburgh, New York, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, Anaheim, Edmonton as my first round picks. Some thoughts: It's unfortunate for Columbus and Montreal (more so for the former) that a good to great season is rewarded by meeting a better team in the first round. While both of these teams can certainly win, I think it's these two who will be most disappointed and it's not really through any fault of their own. Boston - Ottawa will be a dreadful series. Clearly the worst two teams that made the playoffs. Toronto has to be kicking themselves that a 2-0 lead on the last day couldn't hold up (not a good sign for the playoffs either) so that they could avoid Washington. I'm not as high on Edmonton as a lot seem to be. Obviously McDavid is great but if you can bring him down just a bit that takes away so much from the team. All of the sudden Maroon isn't really a factor, or any of the secondary guys. Lately the successful playoff teams have rolled 2-3 scoring lines and I think that approach still works better than one super line. Also they benefited greatly from an obscene number of games where they were rested and the visitor was playing the second of two in two nights coming from Calgary. Still, they get by the first round. I suppose we'll see Chicago - Pittsburgh in the Final and another Penguins Cup. I would like to see the Capitals win over, uhh...let's say Nashville. Subban having a huge payoff would be fun to see.

Cosmic Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Feels strange to me that one of Boston, Ottawa, Montreal, and New York are guaranteed to be in the conference finals. Meanwhile, the three best teams in the conference are all stuck on the same side of the bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted April 12, 2017 Author Share Posted April 12, 2017 It's gonna be New York, too. It seems like year after year they go deeper than they should because better teams screw up.

OnWis97 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'm in. Apparently I did this last year, since an account already existed with my email address. Come to think of it, I may have won this last year. I won something...maybe it wasn't this though.
