Although our Islanders are not there here are my predictions for the playoffs.

Sabers upset the Flyers; Why? Goaltending edge to Buffalo

Canuck over Chicago, Why? Finally Luongo gets his cup.

Detroit over Phoenix: Why? Detroit has too much depth for the Coyotes to overcome.

San Jose over the Kings: Why? The Sharks are good enough to make it to the conference final. But will they?

Ducks over the Predators; Why? Ducks are playing good hockey right now. Too much for Nashville to handle.

Capitals over the Rangers; Why? It’s the Rangers, THEY MUST LOOSE, I’m an islander fan did you expect me to say anything else?

Canadians over Boston; Why? Historically Montréal has had their number, that won't change this year. Expect a tough seven game series.

Tampa Bay vs. the Flightless birds: PIK'em, With Crosby playing I'll take Pittsburgh, with out Crosby, I'll take Tampa Bay.
