[OT-NHL] The Annual NHL Playoffs Thread: 2003

[Paragon]

I can't stand the Rangers, mainly because of Sather, also Lindross, Bure (etc. other over paid under producing players)

Gotta go with Dallas, Turks back in net, it's all good)
I love the Sens in the east. Bring the Hammer Chara!!
I would be torn to see them in the final, but Dallas is my team.

GO STARS!!!!

I'll go out on a limb here, and say... Leafs vs Canucks in the final.

I live in Texas and I like the Stars, but I do not think they can outlast the Wings. I imagine we'll see soon enough. Leafs - Canucks? Ohh, Ontario, riggghhhhtt.

I am still holding out hope that the Rangers will make the playoffs.

I have to go with the hometown Sens as well. I just hope they don't meet the Leafs in the playoffs. Four years in a row would be just too much.

The keys to Ottawa's success: 1) Hossa, Alfredsson and Chara staying healthy. 2) Bonk playing up to his potential. 3) Lalime playing his best game. 4) The Red Wings age catching up with them in game 6.

On Sather:

I was bemused a few years ago when Sather managed to sign a certain Czech left winger for his Oilers. The headline read: "Sather makes deal with Satan." After his stellar success of the 80s and precipitous drop of the 90s who could blame him.


"I'll go out on a limb here, and say... Leafs vs Canucks in the final."

On CBC Radio One the other week the announcer finished up with the hockey scores and noted that based on that day's standings his prediction for May would be that the Sens and Canucks would be competing in the Stanley Cup finals and the Canadian media would have blanket coverage of the Leafs chances for next year.

It would be funnier if it weren't true.

Cheers

HAHAHAHHA. As a Hockey fan AND a DnD fan, this thread is great. I'm a Blues fan (got a lot of family in St. Louis). Of course they'll do what they've done for the last quarter century, lose.

Flyers fan. I'm glad the Rangers aren't going to make it. That makes WFAN much more fun to listen to.

'Nucks to the Cuuuuup!

Naslund, Bertuzzi, Jovo, Cloutier... so long as these guys stay healthy they have a shot. A Nucks / Sens Stanley Cup final would indeed be sweet.


A'koss.

I'm cheering for the Leafs. In fact, I'm going to get an epic bard (eg Celine Dion) to sing for them.
