East Round 1:

New Jersey -> Carolina
Phily -> Pittsburgh

Result: 50%

West Round 1:

Calgary -> Chicago

Result: 75%

East Round 2:
Boston -> Pittsburgh
Washington -> Washington

Result: 50%

West Round 2:

Result: 50%

Conference Finals:
Washington -> Pittsburgh
Detroit -> Detroit (We can consider this a lock at this point - 3-1 in the series.)

Result: 50%

Overall level of accuracy, about 60%. I think that might be a bit better than Maggie the Monkey's predictions on TSN, is it not?

I heard she was retiring after this season. Maybe you could get her job?

West

San Jose Over Ducks in 6
Detroit over Columbus in 5
Vancouver over St Louis in 5
Calgary over Chicago in 7

Possible upset would be Detroit losing to a hot Blue Jackets Goalie

East
Boston over the habs in 6
Carolina over the Devils in 7
Washington over NY in 6
Pittsburgh over Philly in 6

I agree with Stormblade though, somehow I don't think Boston wanted to play Montreal, they tend to get upset by Montreal way to often. Well at least for the first 99 years, maybe things will change.

Blue Jackets Goalie 100% but unfortunately that is CBJ only saving and if it does happen. I will be pleasantly surprised

Can't bet against the Habs. They beat Boston. It's kind of a karma thing.

Ask Phil and Bobby.

Prove me wrong...

And uh who the heck is Phil and Bobby?

All NHL predictions from Akufadumamai will now officially be ignored.

Not knowing who Phil and Bobby are shows that Aku's hockey knowledge stems solely from his time with EA's NHL series.

Aku, go back to your Xbox and leave the real world of hockey alone.

Psst- for a further skill test, who are Wayne and Mario?

Jerk!

And what's mine called...

He still has not replied. Orr maybe he is just ignoring you.

What about Esposito?

Let me take it one step further...
Paul
Marc
Grant
Pavel
Yari
Ray
oh what about the other Bobby?

Stormblade's picture

You just have to look up the rosters of the '70 and '72 Stanley Cup Champions. Of course, those were the only two years they didn't play the Habs.

But I do agree with most of your predictions.

Except that Anaheim isn't going to beat San Jose.

But I do not think that detroit will win. Their problem is that their goaltending sucks, just have a look at Osgood[bad]'s numbers this year. The team with the best goaltender always wins.
