2013 Stanley Cup Conference Quarter Finals

As always post up your predictions and I will keep tallies.

(1) Chicago 4-1 Minnesota (8 )
(2) Anaheim 3-4 Detroit (7)
(3) Vancouver 4-3 San Jose (6)
(4) St Louis 4-3 LA (5)
Can you tell I can't call the West?

(1) Pittsburgh 4-2 NYI (8 )
(2) Montreal 4-3 Ottawa (7)
(3) Washington 4-3 NYR (6)
(4) Boston 4-1 Toronto (5)
Or the East!

Chicago 4-2 Minnesota
Anaheim 3-4 Detroit
Vancouver 4-1 San Jose
St Louis 2-4 LA

Pittsburgh 4-0 New York Islanders
Montreal 4-1 Ottawa
Washington 1-4 NYR
Boston 4-3 Toronto

The Bruins will go to a game 7 with the Leafs and then beat them in overtime with someone like Chara absolutely smashing the back of the net off from the point.

Chicago 4-1 Minnesota
Anaheim 2-4 Detroit
Vancouver 3-4 San Jose
St Louis 3-4 LA

Pittsburgh 4-2 NY Islanders
Montreal 4-2 Ottawa
Washington 3-4 NY Rangers
Boston 4-3 Toronto

Here are my ridiculous predictions

Chicago 4-0 Minnesota
Anaheim 2-4 Detroit
Vancouver 4-2 San Jose
St Louis 3-4 Los Angeles


Pittsburgh 4-1 New York Islanders
Montreal 4-2 Ottawa
Washington 4-3 New York Rangers
Boston 4-2 Toronto

Chicago 4-1 Minnesota
Anaheim 2-4 Detroit
Vancouver 4-3 San Jose*
St Louis 4-3 Los Angeles


Pittsburgh 4-1 New York Islanders
Montreal 4-3 Ottawa
Washington 4-3 New York Rangers
Boston 4-2 Toronto

* Due to both teams' propensity to choke during the big games, game 7 of this series will go to thirty-three OT periods before the referee takes pity on them and tosses a coin to decide a winner.

Chicago 4-0 Minnesota
Anaheim 3-4 Detroit
Vancouver 2-4 San Jose
St Louis 1-4 Los Angeles


Pittsburgh 4-1 New York Islanders
Montreal 3-4 Ottawa
Washington 4-2 New York Rangers
Boston 3-4 Toronto

Like Rockandroller said, Boston/TO will go to overime, possibly multiple and Orr will score a screamer. Or a Chara slapper will bounce off his noggin and trundle past a bemused Rask.

As per usual I will get 90% of these wrong...

Chicago 4-1 Minnesota
Anaheim 2-4 Detroit
Vancouver 2-4 San Jose
St Louis 4-3 LA

Pittsburgh 4-2 New York Islanders
Montreal 3-4 Ottawa
Washington 3-4 NYR
Boston 4-1 Toronto

Chicago 2-4 Minnesota
Anaheim 4-2 Detroit
Vancouver 2-4 San Jose
St Louis 2-4 LA

Pittsburgh 0-4 New York Islanders
Montreal 1-4 Ottawa
Washington 4-0 NYR
Boston 4-1 Toronto

Surely that's just wishful thinking?

Nope. Pittsburgh traded for too many losers down the stretch. Morrow, Iginla, the sharks dude, the carolina dude.... bunch of losers.

Dang! I was going to use my 1000th post for something interesting or thought provoking, now I have Colton Orr's noggin on my landmark

Come on Buff. How did we all do? (Not very well I guess).

I've done pretty well if I don't say so myself. CHI in 5, PIT in 6, BOS in 7, NYR in 7, was one game off on DET and LA, got Habs and Sens backwards, and foolishly gave the Canucks 3 games.

Let me grab a sarnie and then I will sit down and do it.

Round one results

Chicago v Minnesota - 8/9 (89%)
Anaheim v Detroit - 8/9 (89%)
Vancouver v San Jose - 4/9 (44%)
St Louis v LA - 6/9 (67%)

Pittsburgh v NYI - 8/9 (89%)
Montreal v Ottawa - 2/9 (22%)
Washington v NYR - 3/9 (67%)
Boston v Toronto 8/9 (89%)

West: 26/36 (72%)
East: 21/36 (58%)
Overall: 47/72 (65%)

Sometimes I frighten myself.

6 out of 8 is better than anything else I try to predict!
