Penguins are going to win. MARK MY WORDS.

Stupid.

I hope Canucks lose in game 7 again. See their "great fans" riot again.

They're definitely my pick.

Nothing else to do than to cross my fingers and hope for the best. Not feeling very confident, I don't think the Kings have enough maturity to beat a team like the Canucks.

Nashville. You heard it here first.

And last.

I can see them winning one or two rounds. Beyond that will be tough.

This may be the best playoff yet seeing as how any team has a chance. Sure I wouldn't put any money on a Florida or Washington, but in the playoffs anything can happen.

I really don't have a top pick yet. I think Pittsburgh will be a force if healthy, but a 7 game series against the Bruins or NYR may be too physical for them. We shall see.

Yeah, my reasons for cheering for teams is arbitrary so I go for an arbitrary that's easier to keep track of :-)

Although usually it ends up being like tennis where I cheer for the people that are the most entertaining/exciting to watch.

If Ottawa or Vancouver were to win, the cup would go from Swede to swede on each team. Sure, they both have good Canadian players, but much more European born. Which is not a problem really, except that we want the cup to visit and stay in Canada not be in Sweden and finland and Russia all summer long. If a team like Boston repeats, the cup will barely leave Canada. Maybe I'm stupid, but that's how I see it.

In that case I should cheer for Dallas because they have a player from Vic-... damn.

Don´t say that, they´re strong on the back end, and the cup winners the last couple of years have been particularly strong on defense and in goal.

Every cup ever was won on strong D and goaltending.

New York in 6
Boston in 5
New Jersey in 4
Pittsburgh in 7

Vancouver in 6
St. Louis in 6
Chicago in 6
Nashville in 7

Woo, not a sweep! At least not the bad kind :)

Mike Richards was dominant.

Dustin Brown and Anze Kopitar were also forces out there. If it wasn't for Bobby Lu, that game would of been much worse.

I fell asleep in the 3rd period, and missed Phillys epic comeback and the eventual OT winner. My roommate is a BIG Penguins fan, so it felt good on a personal level seeing the mighty Crosby and Malkin disappear late in the game.

The Kings twitter page says: You're welcome rest of Canada.

thank you LA!

Now that's plain funny

More people arrested last night in Vancouver following their loss. 2 people arrested, and 6 tickets given out. Good job boys! Really gives us Canadians a good name. I hope LA sweeps them and Vancouver self implodes.

Glad they lost. Watching the first period, I seethed with disgust and felt vaguely cheated that they actually had a lead. If Luongo hadn't made a dozen awesome saves that would've (and should've!) been a lot less close of a game. (dat glove in the first 5-10 mins) Was there ever a 5-on-5 point where the Kings didn't have an easy time getting out of their zone and staying in the Canucks' zone? Not only that but Biron Bitz tried to fucking decapitate a guy. Also the contrast of everyone else hitting people as much as possible while Henrik wasn't even finishing his checks was pathetic and hilarious.

shape up dudes, shape up

Also the jump in energy from regular season games to playoffs makes me think that they really need to make regular games count for more.
