Back in October I shamelessly took the Lazy Blogger approach and did a season prediction post. Now I'm going one step further and looking back at what stupid things I had to say.
Here are the playoff matchups from our close friends at NHL.com.
Here were my predictions.
No it isn't.
Here are the playoff matchups from our close friends at NHL.com.
Here were my predictions.
- I accurately picked 1 of 16 teams + their seed, and that was the Penguins finishing at #4 in the East.
- My explanation for the Coyotes pick is that I have gonorrhea of the brain.
- I guessed that Brodeur would get injured and the Devils would miss the playoffs. Then he did get injured and they finished 3rd.
- I had the Habs and B's playing in the first round, but in the wrong order. What a season Boston had -- if the Wings choke I mean lose before the Finals -- I'm pulling for the Bruins. I predict that they're going to sweep the Canadiens in three games, causing Montreal to shut down hockey operations and turn the Bell Centre into a tampon production factory.
- If you picked the Blues to make the playoffs before the year started, you should be working for the government. I'll be pulling for them to upset Vancouver in hopes of a second round match-up. Part of that is the nostalgia of a Wings/Blues playoff series, part of it is the travel -- but really it's mostly just the nostalgia.
No it isn't.

Blues only possible in Conference Final (if (!) they advance and we do, we play ANA and Blues play CHI/CGY or SJ plays Blues and we CHI/CGY)
You are correct sir/ma'am, thanks.
"No it isn't"
I never found humor in those three words until this morning when I read them as the caption for that picture of the delusional Nashville fans. That made my morning, just like the Wild made my weekend when they waxed Bubba 8-4 on Friday.
Yeah we were talking about the Preds last night, and are glad they're on the outside looking in. Not because we fear them, but because they just aren't any fun to play ... they've got just the right make-up where, on paper, the Wings should destroy them, but in reality they're too pesky to lose easily. That's a recipe for mass frustration.
