The first round of the NHL playoffs is done, and I have to hold myself accountable and check my predictions.
This is what I picked:
East:
(1) Montréal vs (8) Boston: Montréal
(2) Pittsburgh vs (7) Ottawa: Ottawa
(3) Washington vs (6) Philadelphia: Philadelphia
(4) New Jersey vs (5) NY Rangers: New Jersey
That's a 50% success rate. I'd have done just as well guessing. I didn't count on Martin Brodeur being so exhausted, and the Senators being so awful.
West:
(1) Detroit vs (8) Nashville: Detroit
(2) San José vs (7) Calgary: San José
(3) Minnesota vs (6) Colorado: Colorado
(4) Anaheim vs (5) Dallas: Anaheim
3/4. I really didn't expect Anaheim to play that badly...
Overall, that's 5/8, which is just a little better than 50/50. I'll take it!
The conference semi-finals are the following:'
Montréal - Philadelphia
Pittsburgh - NY Rangers
Detroit - Colorado
San José - Dallas
I say Montréal and Rangers from the East, Detroit and San José from the West. The Stanley Cup final will be Detroit-Montréal, and the Habs will win it.
Allez les Habs!
