I called it a week before the playoffs, that the Ducks would beat the Sharks.
Look out for the Killer Ducks of Anaheim. |

if DET lets ANA get the go ahead early on then it's over in hockeytown. DET will fall the way of SJS. I am anxious to see Hiller stand up to Zetterberg, Hossa, Franzen, and Co though. This will be a very interesting and brutal series! I wonder how well Osgood will be against ANA, let alone DET defensive line. Once again this is why it'll be great to see Hiller against the scoring machine known as the Wings.
Hopefully the DET forwards (Holmstrom, Cleary, Franzen) can get in tight and make ANH take penalties trying to clear them out. Meanwhile, the snipers (Datsyuk, Hossa, Zetterberg, Lidstrom, Rafalski) can pepper away at the openings. ANH's top line will face Nick Lidstrom and probably a combo of Ericsson, Rafalski, Kronwall and Stuart. If they can stay in front of them, slow them down and frustrate them, Osgood will have a chance. If they don't, he will be in trouble (IMO). Detroit defensive zone clears will be critical. If ANH keeps it in and bombs the net from the point, it will hurt DET, especially if ANH gets a rush and traffic in front of Ozzie. ANH will absolutely need secondary scoring to compete if DET cracks Hiller. It should be a 5-6 game series, so getting the first two wins will be crucial. |

So let's see, if both WAS and NJ win tonight, PIT will face BOS. Wow, that would be a series...

as for Hiller, who would have thought a 27yr old goalie would be that good and ready for primetime he definitely is bound for greatness. |

I'm looking forward to DET vs. ANH. Should be an interesting and brutal series.
Wonder if ANH'll pull an '04 flames and go all the way... would be interesting to see Quote:
Not trying to rub it in but where do the Sharks go from here? I mean, the Wild missed the playoffs, but I'm pretty excited about getting a new GM and coach to build off the core of young players we have. The Sharks...I don't know what to think. I really thought they went out and got the missing pieces this year. Sharke already covered his team. The flames need to do 3 things - 1. GET A BACKUP GOALIE!!! 2. find a better fourth line, we need just a little more depth to our backup lines (one of the reasons I'm sad Lombardi is gone) 3. this is more iffy, but I think Olli has to go. Before the deadline we were on fire (no pun intended) but ever since the front line has been a disaster. Whoever it was who said locker-room cancer seems to have been on the money. AH well, it looked good on paper... And with that, my flame's discussion ends. (at least until may ) Quote:
I'm really not looking forward to the Wings facing ANH. It's not that I think they can't beat the Duckies (quite the opposite), but more what their health condition will be after being gooned throughout the series. Hopefully, the Wings can at least make them pay on the PP, and get ahead early in the games and series to keep the goons at bay, and keep the series short. A longer series definitely favors ANH. If you've taken too much time off, they'll make you pay. Quote:
Beating Khappy isn't an easy feat, so don't let them get ahead. |

you are dead on! everything said about Avery actually applies to this deuche! he is one of the biggest primadonnas and difficult athletes out there. Quote:
the man is a hockey God! he is by far the most impressive goalie I've ever seen live. Luongo is sick! |

Detroit versus Anaheim.
Offence versus Defence Luckily, Detroit knows how to get under Pronger's skin

as this is a Canadian sport, I move that offence be spelled O-Fence in this thread.
