Stanley Cup Playoff Predictions 08-09?
Here's mine as of 12/26/08:
IN THE EAST:
Flyers beat Pittsburgh
Boston beats Capitals
Flyers over Boston
( I chose this because i think the only reason the Flyers are overlooked is because the poor 0-3-3 start. But really no one can be the three headed monster they have and the amount of Defensive Depth they have is unbelievable, watch out for these guys.)
IN THE WEST:
San Jose over Detroit
Chicago over Calgary
Chicago over San Jose
( Chicago looks like the sure winner from the some-what talent lacking west. Their surge of young talent is what will make them the West winners. Though don't be surprised if they get beat out by Detroit or San Jose, just because young talent is great but a team of vets who have done it and been there before (Like Detroit) will be more prime in the situation)
IN THE STANLEY CUP:
Now this is important: The Flyers have been unbeatable at home so far this year, if they get home-ice advantage i would predict them the winners 4-3. But if they don't i would predict a game 7 where it would pretty much be a coin flip.
So i wanna know, what would you unbiased picks be? I'm a Maple Leafs fan and hurting real bad this year, just decided to have a little fun with my picks for the playoffs.
