The Mighty Ducks are undefeated in the playoffs still. That's cool, I always like an underdog to do well. And the Devils shut out Lightning, but this is only the first game, anything can still happen.

GO DUCKS!




*is looking forward to the nucks game tonight*

*grumbles about stupid west cost teams with games that start at 10:30*

ah well. i'll stay up anywho. GO WILD!!!

Well...I had a feeling that Ottawa would be way too fast. The only reason the Flyers scored two goals was because the Senators waited so long that they had to get back up to pace. I hope the Flyers play a little better in the next game, but I won't be pissed if they lose, because Ottawa is just a great team, better than the Flyers.

Yeah, the Senators are damn good. I bet that series will be awesome, Philly is one of the very few (along with New Jersey IMO) teams that have a chance at beating Ottawa in the East.

Anahiem taking into FIVE overtimes, being outshot, outhit, bla bla bla same as their first game in Detroit, and once again they win. They should have won in regulation but didn't because of that bull**** Arnott goal off the waived-off icing, they should have won in third OT but didn't because the right post was like half a centimetre out, which I think happened AFTER the puck went in anyways and even if it did come out before, it in no way had any effect on whether it would have been a goal or not, but they won it anyway. Wooo! I hope Ducks sweep the Stars too.

And go Vancouver! They're down 1-0 right now to Minny, I think this could be another long series. I believe I did say "Minnesota will suprise a lot of people" in my prediction for round one (of course, I predicted they'd lose to the Avs though :) ).

Ottawa in 5
New Jersey in 5
Dallas in 7
Vancouver in 5

Too late stu. Posting your predictions after the first games have been completed is hardly fair:D



Canucks just scored. 1-1

Sweet move by Bertuzzi, but no-goal. That was VERY close, when the puck was rolling it looked like it was completely over the line at one point to me, but ah well. Go Canucks!

Damn, the puck was over the line. Oh well, posting this just after Klatt's OT goal. Great game. I'm not worried about the Canucks performance really. They outplayed the wild. Just some bad breaks.


hurra.:D

well. after they explained it enough.

thier reasoning for the rule DOES make sence.

your right it prolly wouldnt of affected this goal.

but i was thinking the rule was for incase the puck slides under. had to think about it for a sec because the top bar would also go up. and they cant determine with complete certainty that that puck wouldnt of hit the top bar if the net had been down all the way.


but they won anyway so its all good. good things come to thoes who are patient

Wow...Ducks up 2-0, again...This is awesome.

First it was the Angels in baseball, and they were a wildcard team so they weren't expected to go far. Now it's the Mighty Ducks, they are ranked 7th, so they weren't favored either. This was all very unexpected.

Damn I love the Mighty Ducks. I hope the embarass Dallas. SWEEEEEEEP is coming, I can feel it. It's gonna be awesome to have Colorado, Dallas, and Detroit all out in the third round hopefully.

It was the first time in history i think that a Original six team wasn't in the second round of the Playoffs.

What a odd time Indeed.

Kariya is the only player in the top 11 most paid who is still in the playoffs.

wooooo GO WILD!!! shoulda won Game 1 also. but hey, thats the way the puck bounces. hehe.

Dissapointed in the vancouver fans at the end tho. throwing soda and thigns onto the ice. Very Unclassy...... or as the Announcer on ESPN said.... 'Idiotic'
i expect that from colorado fans. but expected vancouver fans to be above that.

good game tho. hopfully the wild can give another good showing at home for thier home fans. GOOOO WILD!

and ducks... lol. man, they working thier ass's off. gotta hand it to em there. thats where the Wings lacked this year. they didnt want to fight for it. Ducks fighting every inch of the way. i'll be surprised if they win the next 2 tho. i think Dallas will find a way to win game 3

what? I can't participate? bullsh*t...I made those exact same predictions in a family pool two days previously...

I swear...why would I lie? I got them in here as soon as possible...

c'mon.....Null? :distress:

Anaheim is going to be the Stanley Cup Champions after beating Detroit,Dallas,Minnesoata and then Ottawa.

Flyers will win it all...

yes, but them were the rules in the first post. and have been that for the past few years that we been doing this.....

i didnt give dragonfly any points in first round.
id have to go back and change it for his points too.

:(

Altho bro, you can make it up in finals. tis a betting round. heh. you can bet any points you earn thus far.

perhaps i should start working out just a penalty for however many days late. like a deduction of points and not a total 0 for the round.

Damn straight! If anyone's good enough to beat the Leafs, they must win it right? ;)

dammit man....I made those predictions at the start of the first round, and posted them as soon as I could...in fact, I didn't even watch the first night of games

Maybe you should give me a point for every prediction I get right, and no bonus point if I guess the number of games right?

i thought about that. hehe. bu then again you might not have gotten any of the bonus right anyway. :D lol

what about taking 2 points away from my score for the round?

giving me zero for getting my predictions in a bit late is rather harsh :unsure:

Yet you said nothing when the other dude didn't get his points.


:unsure:

if i do something for stu..... id do the same for the other guy. i dunno. Should make a pole... of who thinks late posts should get some points. but not full.

You should make a poll.... a PoLL... lol


Yes, give them halvsies or something.

[EDIT]

since is not entirly fair to everyone if ppl that post late get full points. because after one day they would have a slighttt advantage of knowing the losing team wont sweep the other at least...

So..

after 1 game............ 75%

after 2 games.......... 50%

after 3 games........... 25%

4 or more... None.


So dragonfly gets 3 pts now.

(sorry for the edit. i thought about it and think this one makes more sence. ;) )

I'd have just given them the points anyways, we need as many people as possible to make it competitive. As long as they get some points for being late it's good though...

And back to hockey now, **** Dallas! I hate them. Ruining Anahiem's streak... Now they can get eliminated right in Dallas, that would make my YEAR.

ah. But as i predicted Stars would win that one..

I also predict the fall of the Ducks will follow.


Streaks are sometimes hard to break. their streak is over. Now watch as the 'mighty' fall. ;)

:( :( :( .......the flyers lost in OT. I actually was online, and then I decided to focus on the game and I said to myself that right at that moment Ottawa would score.....I know it's just coincidence, but it just sucks. The Flyers will come back.

lol... If Flyers make it past Otawa, I do not foresee them losing to any of the remaining teams... Possibly Dallas... But it would be one hell of a finals.
