*You must also pick the team you think will win the stanley cup. This pick must also be made before the playoffs start.
If the team you chose does not make it to the finals, you may still pick one of the two teams involved, but a correct guess is worth less.

*Scoring is as follows:
-Correctly guessing the victor of a given matchup: 5pts.
-Correctly guessing the Stanley Cup Finals Victor: 15 pts.

I'm hoping Philadelphia wins the cup, but not expecting it... although I do think they will get to the finals, now that they are healthy.

ALSO, I have changed one of my votes. I'm gonna pick calgary over Vancouver. I don't think they are gonna get anywhere without Bertuzzi.

I somewhat disagree. I honestly do think that Calgary will win the series, but it will be extremely close. in bert's absence, the rest of the team is really stepping the fuck up and becoming less dependent on that one power line.

Dallas is going to win over Colorado...changing my mind!

What's up Royston? Hows Alberta?

Melrose Let Down · 04-07-2004, 08:41 PM

The first game is 2 hours away. Too bad I have to go to school, then work. I will be taping tonights games.

Lowgain · 04-07-2004, 08:42 PM

I don't watch hockey

Royston · 04-07-2004, 08:43 PM

alberta is dope. it sucked for the first couple days because i was living in a car, but i've got two jobs now, working in a slaughter house and doing pipeline locating. i'm also really enjoying being legal age and the 6 dollar six-packs. at the end of this month, i'll probably be getting my own apartment, so anyone who wants to come chill with me in calgary can do so.

Allergic 2 Life · 04-07-2004, 08:44 PM

thats TYYYTE i might goto alberta with some friends in the summer! OMG.

do you live with anyone right now?

Blind · 04-07-2004, 08:49 PM

Omg, whoever said Ottawa will beat Toronto is really gay. Ottawa will choke, they always do.

Royston · 04-07-2004, 08:50 PM

yeah, i'm living with three other guys right now:

chris (smeagol)
adam (tugger)
jeremy (germ dog)

all a bunch of lazy brokeasses.
