NEW.ERA Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 So I presume CBC will take Boston/Toronto even though they have an all canadian matchup staring at them in the face, so TSN will probably take MTL/OTT over VAN/SJ. I don't know about the TV coverage though. All I know is CBC has first pick of a Canadian matchup, TSN gets whatever is next, then CBC the other one.Predictionsssssssssss.Eastern Conference Quarterfinals#1 Pittsburgh over #8 NY Islanders in 6#2 Montreal over #7 Ottawa in 7#6 NY Rangers over #3 Washington in 6#5 Toronto over #4 Boston in 7Western Conference Quarterfinals#1 Chicago over #8 Minnesota in 5#7 Detroit over #2 Anaheim in 7#6 San Jose over #3 Vancouver in 7#5 Los Angeles over #4 St Louis in 7Eastern Conference Semi-Finals#1 Pittsburgh over #6 NY Rangers in 6#5 Toronto over #2 Montreal in 7Western Conference Semi-Finals#1 Chicago over #7 Detroit in 5#5 Los Angeles over #6 San Jose in 6Eastern Conference Final#1 Pittsburgh over #5 Toronto in 5Western Conference Final#5 Los Angeles over #1 Chicago in 7Stanley Cup Final#5 Los Angeles over #1 Pittsburgh in 7MVP - Jeff Carter  JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE|  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 In a cosmic sense, I'm glad the Lightning aren't in the playoffs, because the only picks I tend to get right are the ones I ultimately wish I got wrong.To wit:In 2011, picked the Bruins to win the East (and, actually picked a Bruins/Canucks Final, but had Vancouver winning). Bruins did win the East. They did so by winning a gut-wrenching seven game series over the Lightning.In 2012, picked the Tigers to beat the Yankees in the ALCS. I don't think I need to revisit that one.So, with no risk of backfiring, I'll be able to fire away wreckless abandon this time. I look forward to that.

cmm Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I'm not upset that the Islanders drew Pittsburgh. If the Isles plan on making a run at this, they'd probably have to play the Penguins eventually anyway. Why not open up with them, when Crosby is iffy for game 1 and might be a little rusty the rest of the series?That said, I expect the Penguins to win the series but I think the Islanders will be a pain for them and will make in interesting. They played the Penguins tough in 4 of the 5 games they played this year (winning only 1). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRenesis Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I didn't watch the NHL this season, but I see the Pens had a good record against the Isles, but it doesn't change the fact that they are the team I least wanted to see the Pens face. The Isles have matched up well against the Pens for a few years now and if they can force the Pens into the kind of rough play that they got against the Flyers last year, the Pens could end up facing the same result.

NEW.ERA Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 They're actually doing a schedule release show on the NHL Network at 11ET. So one more hour till we know the dates. Â JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Well, NBCSN is airing Minnesota/Chicago and Detroit/Anaheim on Tuesday night. That much has, seemingly, been confirmed. But, with the East completely unknown until the end of tonights' game, there is a lot of hand-wringing going on inside NHL offices right now to get proper schedules released.

ninersdd Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I would presume the Sharks start on Wednesday with that fact the Anaheim starts Tuesday night, and would not have the Pacific locations going against one another.

Sodboy13 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Because of course, they couldn't map out the possible plans in advance of the Boston-Ottawa result.That's not sarcasm. I'm certain this league wouldn't be capable of that level of forethought.

BigEd76 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Seems like Pittsburgh is almost a lock to come out of the East even without the crybaby, but since I want to see them collapse, I'll root for MontrealOut west, I've already seen Chicago and Anaheim win a Cup recently, so I'll root for Vancouver and St. Louis, even though I don't expect either one to make it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 The NHL puts on a "scheduling show" at 11:00pm on a freaking Sunday, burns through all the schedule announcements in the first 8 minutes of said hour-long show, and before announcing the Western schedules, tells viewers to just go to the website and look at them there instead anyway.And when you go to NHL.com and click on the Quarterfinals schedule, you get:#OITGDNHL On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.
