NHL Playoff

Ottawa over Tampa: 4-2 The Sens are just too good, it would be over sooner if Hasek was playing and in top form. Grahame and Burke both have been too inconsistent for the Bolts. Detroit over Edmonton: 4-3 Oilers will put up a good fight as usual, but Red Wings have the experienced players and younger players both producing. San Jose over Nashville: 4-1 Mason has been hot, but he's just a rookie with a few games under his belt. SJ has been HOT HOT HOT with Thornton and Cheechoo. Anaheim over Calgary: 4-3 Another hard fought battle, the Flames have Mikka, but I like how the Ducks went from prentenders to contenders late in the season. Selanne had one of his best seasons in a long while, and they have great team speed! Carolina over Montreal: 4-2 Both teams have starting rookie goalies, but Gerbers been playing since the start of the season, while Huet has only played a third of one. I like Carolina's offense over Montreal's even without Erik Cole. NJ Devils over NY Rangers: 4-2 Another goaltending battle, but Broduer and the Devils are on an 11 game winning streak to end the season; talk about SCORCHING HOT! The Rangers started off flying but slowed down a bit, allowing the Devils to catch them in the very last day of the regular season. Buffalo over Philadelphia: 4-3 Another rookie goaltender, but Miller's been good all season, much of the reason for Buffalo's record. Philly's two goalies have been somewhat inconsistent. Forsberg's health could be a concern. Dallas over Colorado: 4-3 One of the toughest ones to call I imagine, Stars have Modano, the Avs Sakic has picked up his play near the end of the season. But when it comes down to goaltending, Turco has been good all season, while the Avs got rid of their #1 at the trading deadline for Theodore, who hasn't proven himself yet this year since his injury keep him out for most of it. I know I only picked 1 Canadian team to advance , but jit's all in good fun. Hopefully they will all make it. This will be an interesting playoffs, anything can happen in a 7 game series.
