Playoff Predictions

So I know I missed out making predictions for the first round, but I'll post my second round onward predictions for the NHL playoffs, and as well for the NBA once they finish up their first round.


Boston Bruins vs Carolina Hurricaines

This series is going to be closer than people think , Cam Ward is a great goalie in the playoffs and I feel like he is going to steal a game on his own. Carolina is also a great team at home. With that being said, Boston is the best team in the Eastern Conference and I feel are too deep for Carolina to handle.

Boston will win this series in 6 games.





Pittsburgh Penguins vs Washington Capitals

This series has a lot of hype built up because of the Ovechkin vs Crosby/Malkin match up, and I, along with the majority of people are most excited for this series. With that being said I believe that Pittsburgh will steal a game on the road and be unstoppable at home.

Pittsburgh in 6


Detroit vs Anaheim

I, for one am ecstatic that Anaheim had beat San Jose in the first round of the playoffs, they're a lot better team than their record gives them credit for. With that being said, Detroit is at the top of their game right now and will beat the Ducks and get into the West Finals.


Detroit in 7


Chicago vs Vancouver


This series is very interesting, Vancouver doesn't have a great offence, but the best goalie in the playoffs right now, whereas Chicago really has nothing to lose. With that being said, I think Luongo will steal 2 games for the Canucks which will bring them to the West Finals.

Vancouver is 6
