2014 NHL Playoffs LD

Well, it seems a little late to be posting predictions for all of the series, but I will quickly post just a couple of thoughts.

I think, as much as it deeply paid me to say it, that the Habs will sweep the Lightning. Not because I think they are particularly good, because I don't. But with the loss of Bishop, and therefore their dependence upon Lindback and some dude whose name escapes me, I think this one will be over fast. Especially considering games three and four happen north of the border.

I think the Pens/Jackets series will go long, as will the Kings/Sharks. I'll take the Pens and the Kings in seven.

Bruins in five. There's no way that Jimmy Howard can replicate his performance from game one. And once the Bruins shake off the rust from a longer than desired delay, they will return to being a force, and this one will be over quickly and painlessly.

And of course, I'll take the Flyers in seven. Just so I can watch IDR meltdown

Also, Seabrook should get the series for that hit on Backes. Just vile.

As a Hawks fan I agree. It was a dirty hit without a doubt.
I wouldn't be surprised if he gets punished and if he does I won't complain.

It was disgusting. Almost as disgusting as the Hawks fans on Twitter saying it was a clean hit. Morons.

I hate fans like that.
If the roles were reversed those same fans would be bitching about the hit.
Just be honest about it.

Columbus with their first Franchise Playoff Win tonight. Hope for at least three more from them and we can say goodbye to the Pens.

Seabrook has a phone hearing tomorrow and if he's not suspended for at least 3 games I will be very surprised.

:thumbs:

I call 'em New York Rangers West.

Phone hearing means he can receive no more than five games. I'd hope he gets all five.

Game 2 tonight of Kings/Sharks. Man I'm nervous.

You should be, Quick played like ass in the first game.

 

[hatehabsforever]

Come on Flyers, hang in there!

 

[Septumus]

Seabrook has 3 game suspension.
I'm glad he got at least 3 games but I was hoping for the rest of the series. Of course it could be all over in 2 or 3 games and the rest of the series will be missed.

Tonight is the night if Tampa wants to get back into the series. Expect them to come out hard in front of the home crowd.

Unrelated note I just noticed that Lecavlier is playing against Martin St Louis and neither of them are on Tampa.

I just love playoff hockey.

 

[justinsayne]

FUCK YEAH!! Get home, turn on the Wings/Bruins game, & BOOM! they score their first goal of the game!! Alright get two more now!! GO WINGS GO!!!

 

[justinsayne]

Fell asleep, woke up to see Bruins scored 2 goals while I was out....

 

[justinsayne]

Bruins up 4-1 with just over 2 mins. to go, so naturally Lucic is gonna throw a temper tantrum cause he was offside & thus his empty-netter didn't count, what a bitch.

Don't worry about it, apparently Jimmy Howard dozed off too.

Now that's more like it.

GO BRUINS!!!

 

[Turd Ferguson]

Jimmy Howard remembered he is Jimmy Howard

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Chara's face. LOL.

 

[Septumus]

What a giant and beast of a man. I would not want to stare his slap shot down. As skater or goalie.

 

[Thriller Ant]

Brace yourselves, this may just be my homerism, but Don Cherry makes sense in this video:

 

[justinsayne]

Way to stay classy Montreal, way to stay classy...

 

[It's Damn Real!]

Montréal boo anything that isn't 120% pro-Hab. They boo injured players, they boo when their own skaters fall over without being touched, etc.

 

[justinsayne]

Quick has given up 13 goals in two games now? did he forget that it's his job to stop the puck or something?!

 

[It's Damn Real!]

I can't believe the Jackets collapsed... again. Up 3-1... lose 4-3. WTF!?

 

[Dream]

Yeah that was crazy. Pens scored 3 times in 2 minutes.

 

[It's Damn Real!]

It's like Bob and F7eury switched spots.
