NHL 09 predicts a Chicago/Boston final with Boston taking the cup. But then again, last year they were totally wrong, predicting a Montreal/San Jose final. They seem to have more luck predicting other sports.

The Penguins were facing elimination in Game 5 last year, and they scored the winning goal in triple OT when at any time the Red Wings could have scored to end the series.
They are really missing the real one-second difference in that in Game 6 with literally the closing seconds, Crosby almost scored, and Hossa on the rebound which would have sent that game into OT as well.
It almost sent me out of a 4th story window as well, haha.
The Red Wings completely and utterly dominated them last year in the first two games (I was at game two in Detroit). To the point that everyone thought it was going to be a 4 game sweep. The Penguins made it a series, at least an exciting enough one for people who are neither fans of either to watch.
They should show the heartbreak of the one second to the Penguins, and the jubilation of the Red Wings in Game 6.
Game 5 only works because well ... who doesn't like the Penguins, haha.

It did just happen and it was pretty sweet. Glad to see Pens win, they deserved it and it was going to happen sooner or later.

Yup, Caps vs. Bruins would be great. My two favourite teams in the East.

Crosby gets a hat trick as well!?! Christ that was a crazy game.

I'm going out on a limb here and predicting in the first round Detroit will prevail over Columbus.

Or they should do that one second makes all the difference when Marc-Andre Fleury comes out onto the ice leading the Penguins in their introductions for Game 1 in Detroit ... and falls flat on his face.
- I REMEMBER THAT!nicole_marie
- Haha yea. That could have completely lost all the jitters the Penguins had ... or have them blown out 4-0, then 3-0.flavorful

If Montreal win the first game tomorrow, i predict they will win the Stanley Cup.
I know. You'll see.

Wings look stronger and are better balanced. Every line has a high scoring player. Right now I think the Wings would be the favorite in a Pens series. Pittsburgh needs some secondary scoring, hopefully from Staal. I don't think he has scored in this series.

I'm going to stay consistent with my words that Detroit is a great team. It's a best of 3 now, with them having 2 at home.
GO PENS GO!!!

I'm just hoping Pascal LeClaire can be the goalie the Sens have always needed. *sigh*
