2024 Playoffs Discussion / Predictions

Post by Hockey Widow »

Round one gets underway on the weekend. We know the East is set.

Boston over Toronto in 6
Florida over Tampa in 6
New York over Washington in 5
Carolina over NYI in 6

Too early to predict the West. The seedings may be set after the Dallas game if they get get at least a point off of St. Louis.

The first round is usually the most exciting and brutal. Some good matchups for sure.

They've got Pyotr Kochetkov and of course, Spencer Martin :)

I'll say this about Bo Horvat...he's solid in the playoffs. I'll take the Isles for the upset

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

He thrives in an environment where he doesn't have to fight for his teammates

Since this is for bragging rights, I assume that's predicting with your head.

But on an emotional level, whom do you think Canucks fans should hate more?

I am historically a Boston fan and have no problem cheering for them.

That’s a great question RG…

I think it’s a forever laff hate fest

I think the booins will wear off to some degree at some point… likely when Marchand is gone it’ll lessen.

But TO is forever 8-)

Eastern Conference:
Florida/Tampa - Florida in 7. Tampa has star power and muscle memory, but Florida's too deep.
Toronto/Boston - Boston in 5. Toronto has forwards, but Boston has D and a goalie.
Rangers/Washington - Rangers in 6. Washington will be plucky, but the Rangers are too stacked.
Carolina/Islanders - Carolina in 5. Snooze. Fest.
Love the Sport. Love the Team.

Hate the League.

But, the Coilers and Bostards both are tied for 2nd place.
