      • Number of people predicting the outcome of the second round: 16
        Number of those 16 predicting a sweep of any series in teh second round: 0
        Number of series that could potentially end in four straight: 3
        Number of points that NYE will forget to award for those picks if they are 4-0: 0 (though he may miss some for winners )

        Not sure any will actually sweep, but could anyone have predicted 3-0 in three series at this point ? I know I would have laughed if anyone said it would happen! Maybe everyone will be watching the Flyers beat the Habs because that might be the only series left to watch

                • I don't wanna say I told you so, but I questioned the Huet/Price trade 'cause I'm not sure it's good to put such a young, inexperienced goaltender in the playoffs for a deep run.

                  Also, I think the Habs were overly dependent on the PP throughout the season. In the playoffs, powerplays are far less important and the ranking of the PPs always changes dramatically. I find that teams with solid special teams in the regular seasion (eg, MTL) don't practice them much going into the playoffs. Whereas other teams practice a LOT, and tailor the PP/PK towards the style of their competitor.

                  Look at Calgary -- brutal powerplay in the regular season but #1 (or close to #1?) in the first round of the playoffs. Habs had #1 in the regular season, worst in the playoffs.

                  • And yet, the Habs are in the 2nd round, but the Flames....


                    Habs are only down 2-1. They are FAR from out. And they outplayed the Flyers in games 2 and 3. Don't write them off yet

                        If the Flames played Boston, I'm pretty sure they'd be in the 2nd round...

                        Probably in less than 7 games...
