#1 Posted: 3/29/2012 7:14:09 AM 8 buffalo at 1 nyr
7 ottawa at 2 boston
6 jersey at 3 florida
5 philly at 4 pitt
semis would be:
6 new jersey at 1 ny rangers
4 pitt at 2 boston
east finals would be
6 new jersey at 4 pitt
4 pittsburgh wins east
im pounding pitt to win the east i love this bet, 4 of these teams suck in buffalo, ottawa both those 2 cities are choke artists, then you can eliminate florida they not that good their division sucks, and eliminate philly cause they will struggle with pitt
that leaves 6 nj at 1 ny rangers and 4 pitt at 2 boston
look at what rangers have done this year vs those 3 teams left nj pitt and boston not good, they are 3-0 vs boston, but 3-3 vs nj and 2-3 vs pitt. I DONT SEE ANY WAY RANGERS WIN THE EAST NO WAY THEY GONNA LOSE TO NJ OR PITT FOR SURE
that leaves 3 teams left NEw jersey on the road in the east finals vs either pitt or boston. well boston is unbeaten vs jersey this year, jersey cant match boston no way, and if they play pitt they 3-3 vs them this year, but pitt home ice i would eliminate jersey to pull the upset all the way to the cup. i say jersey loses to pitt in 6 or 7 games in the east finals. if pitt gets hot maybe they knock jersey out if 5
if boston can beat pitt, boston will make it to back to back st anley cups but i dont see it. I DO SEE THE WINNER OF THE SEMI FINALS BETWEEN PITT AND BOSTON BE THE CHAMP OF THE EAST CAUSE JERSEY AND RANGERS WILL CHOKE TOO, but i see pitt beating boston in that series, and beating the devils in the east finals
I DONT KNOW ABOUT DA WEST THATS ALOT HARDER THE SEEDS ARAE NOT LOCKED YET
the only way i see garbage moving in the east is between the 7-9 spots and that pretty non meaningfull, if wash gets into the 8 seed maybe they beat the rangers early but they aint going all the way to the cup
this looks likes pitt division to lose, unless they play like to tal garbage i dont know how they not gonna win it.
i wonder if bookies open pitt favorite to win the east even though they a 4 seed they wont do that will tehy? rangers and boston still be favorites over pitt?
i dont bet regular season nhl but playoffs i will , i have done good picking atleast 1 cup team lately and west seems hard to pick, but in the east i like 4 seed pitt |
