As you can tell by my user name, I am a HUGE hockey fan.
I will have to go back and catch up on this thread but just wanted to get my 2 cents in.
I am a true blue Toronto Maple Leaf fan, but can't stomach them, this year. My heart will always be with the leafs but Calgary is my team of the moment.....now for my picks,
Habs...although I am not a habs fan....sorry guys....I do want you to win this series....only cause I detest Doug Weight.....and don't want to see them advance.
Oilers.....only cause they are they are the Canadian team and my son is the biggest Detriot/ Stevie Wonder fan there is so makes for interesting game nights.
Buffalo....just cause they are playing Philly.....to see them go 4 straight would be wonderful for so many reasons, mainly Bobby Clarke, lucky for him he is married to the bosses daughter....lol
Calgary....is my pick to win the cup this year, I like so many things about this team, I think they will only get better as the series progress
Colorado/Dallas....who cares..

Love Sakic and Modano so haven't a fav for this one.
Nashville..... I don't think they will come through this.....I think the sharks will take them but I would like to see Nashville win.....someone remind me why Kariya didn't make the Olympic team???
New Jersey......but I also don't really care about this series, now Jagr is gone I don't think the Rangers stand a chance.
Tampa Bay....Alfredsson.....yuck could someone just smack him around a bit, loved it when Tucker smacked him around the other week....I wish I had it on record so I could watch it over and over again.

Also Chris Neil....please....ya he has some points this year but how could you not being on that high powered offensive team.....he should be sitting in the press box with Brashere (sp).......I still think tampa will pull this off.
So those are my picks.....please don't flame me all is in fun. Just love to watch a good game. As long as Philly or Ottawa don't win the cup, I don't care who wins as long as they are good games.
Go Leafs Go.....ooopppsss wait......that will be next season....
