Playoff Predictions - Round 3

You just can't see me...

I know I haven't posted in a couple weeks, but I have still been around...

I will try to post some thoughts and such this weekend or something, but for now, here is my quick analysis on the third round of the Stanley Cup playoffs that start tonight...

Only two series this time, so it should be a lot easier...

(1) Detroit Red Wings Vs. (2) Anaheim Ducks

In all seriousness, when you type it out, Mighty Ducks actually rolls off the tongue easier... and yes I do know what I just said (typed). I think Anaheim is a much more well rounded team than Calgary or San Jose were, so I think they will take this one. And they have their own little pain in the ass player in Sammy Pahlsson, so I'm very curious to see how the Wings respond to that type of player... Anaheim in 7

(1) Buffalo Sabres Vs. (4) Ottawa Senators

Ottawa has looked really good all playoffs against tough competition, while Buffalo had some tough games against the other two Empire State teams. I've never thought that Miller was all that solid of a goaltender, although that may be a bit of my Canadian bias. I say that the Senators keep rolling and carry Canada's Stanley Cup hope to the finals... Ottawa in 6

Oh, I'm WELL aware of what I typed... I was comparing Mighty Ducks to just plain Ducks... I think that the name change was ridiculous regardless of what happened with Disney... ; )
