can i copy and paste mine from another thread?

phew. being internally consistent is way to much fuckin work.

first round winners in my humble opinion sure to be proven wrong:

washington in 6 (caps ditch the 1st round bugaboo)

buffalo in 7 (obvious angle, miller will shut philly down and out)

boston in 6 (another obvious angle, tim thomas is just more reliable than carey price)

tampa in 7 (toughest series to predict, but gritty pens with no star power can hang for 7, but not enough to win)

vancouver in 5 (blackhawks set up for a miracle run....except that vancouver is really good and won't choke against them this year)

san jose in 7 (no choke for the sharks in round one, even though i really like the kings, but no kopitar)

detroit in 6 (homer pick, but should be a super fun series)

nashville in 7 (admit it, we all want to see weber CRUSH getzlaf, nashville finally wins a playoff series)

yay, now lets see how wrong i am!

The fact that so many people are picking the Sabres tells me 2 things:

1) Sabres are going to lose

2) People really hate the Flyers

lol, I definitely think the playoff series threads should remain stickied, but everything else should go, not my call though.

Philly didn't look great ending the regular season, even in their win against the Isles. You guys are on a roll, I'm glad we didn't get you guys in the first round.

my sentiments as well. Flyers have not played well the last 2 to 3 weeks. Sabres are going in with much more confidence in themselves and especially their goalies.

Regular season means nothing now.

Sabres are going to have their hands full in this series.

Same for the Pens, although I think it's mostly just #2 for the reason

Canucks over hawks in 5
Sharks over Kings in 5
Wings over coyotes in 6
Ducks over preds in 7

Caps over Ranger in 7
Flyers over Sabres in 7
Habs over Bruins in 6
Lightning over Penguins in 7

i think the 1st round matchups in the east will be more tightly contested with the caps and flyers on upset alert

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Washington over Rangers in 6
Flyers over Sabres in 5
Bruins over Habs in 5
Penguins over Lightning in 7

Canucks over Hawks in 6
Stars over Kings in 5
Wings over Coyotes in 5
Ducks over Predators in 6

Going out on a limb and taking every higher seed.
