What are your picks for the cup this year. who's gonna take the points in the east. who's gonna take the points in the west. who's gonna make the playoffs, who's not. ??

My pick for the cup....PHILLY of course. vs. Calgary. Philly in six!! :thumbsup:

[nevaquit01]

it won't be philly. lol

[LazySmoking420]

Dallas

[mike jones]

detroit vs carolina

unless my SJ sharks find a way to get into that 8th seed... they always find a way to pull off that 8th seed upset hehe

[beachguy in thongs]

Penguins in 6.

[da haze meister]

umm... i was exposed to alot of hockey living in philadelphia, but i always found it boring.
buffalo bills.

[nevaquit01]

haha penguins! detroit will win another cup, they are by far the most dominant team right now.

[higher4hockey]

^ i dunno man, carolina or ottawa could easily give detroit a run for their money.

[Universer]

If Ottawa has their defensemen (especially Chara) healthy, they could be a monster in the play-offs, even without Hasek.

I'll say Ottawa versus Detroit.

[pabloescobar209]

Penguins in 6.
Years?

[mike jones]

^ decades? haha

[pabloescobar209]

^ decades? haha
Eh it's not that bad... I mean yes they are the worst team in the NHL but we aren't that bad, we just never play as team, and its hard to win a team sport without doing that... we also need a good coach, no more of these shit heads that don't know dick.

[beachguy in thongs]

No, maybe years. That Crosby guy is a lightning rod.

[pabloescobar209]

No, maybe years. That Crosby guy is a lightning rod.
Sid the Kid.. and yes he makes the rest of the team look blind, deaf and dumb.

[higher4hockey]

As much as I depsise the pens, i think next year they'll put up a fight. they're a young inexperienced team, give em a year or two and they'll be good!

[pabloescobar209]

That's what makes it so sad though... Sid is the youngest most inexperienced person on the team, and he leads the team in every offensive stat... go figure.

[mike jones]

sid the kid is great, but ovechkin is unbelievable

[OrangeKush]

I'll say Ottawa versus Detroit.

Me too, with Detroit taking the cup in 6.

[Its a Plant]

Speaking of lightning rods, what about the champs? They will repeat this year, I have faith. Can't forget about Richards, Vinnie L. and St. Louis! No one faster than Martin!

[pabloescobar209]

I was at the game in Pittsburgh... It was a saturday game like 5 years ago vs. Philly, and Kasparaitis lays out Lindros, and Lindros can't even skate back to the bench... we won that game 6-2, best Penguin game I have ever been to.

[higher4hockey]

if anyone is watching the buffalo/ottawa game you might want to reconsider your picks of who's playing for the cup !!! the sabres are playing like a team possessed.

[mrtbone55]

Philadelphia has a chance as soon as they get rid of Bobby Clark. He was a hell of a player but can't manage a team for Shit....:dance: :dance:

[Smoking Ganja]

^ I hate bobby clarke but hes any amazing GM
Philly has good young talent in Carter and Richards

If Emery can handle the playoffs and play well than I think Ottawa has the best chance at the cup (I really hope they dont win though)

As for the Penguins, they have Malkin dont they? I'm actually not sure but i saw a sports thing about the possibility of Malkin and Crosby playing together. How sick would that be. Also, Marc Andre Fleury should blossom into a real NHL goaltender soon, and if they keep playing like shit, they'll just keep drafting good, young players... it's only a matter of time before they're playing well again.

[stonedtom]

mike jones has the right idea GO SAN JOSE if they dont make it ill say Ottawa

[higher4hockey]

anybody watching the frozen four ? my money is on Maine!

[Its a Plant]

I am pulling for them boys from South Dakota personally. Too bad more college hockey isn't on Tv, it's fun to watch and played at a pretty fast pace.

[God v2.0]

"you ever seen midnight express? well its like that but with hockey sticks!"










im blazed, and hockey sucks, because im not good at it. i do however play a mean game of "kick the puck around the rink with your skates"

[higher4hockey]

North Dakota and Boston College were duking it out today, wasn't a bad game, if ND had played with a little more discipline i think they could have taken bc.

[d00d989]

reeeeedddddddwwwwwwwiiiiiiiiinnnnnnngggggggggsssss ss!!!!!!!!!

oh and if your talking about college hockey, theres one thing i gotta say
