NHL Playoff Predictions 2011

Before I forget, here are my 2011 NHL playoff predictions for round one!

Eastern Conference:

Washington Captials vs. NY Rangers - Caps in 6 (Caps choke every year, but I don't think Lundqvist can handle the Caps offence the whole series)

Philadelphia Flyers vs. Buffalo Sabres - Flyers in 7 (Sabres got Miller, but again one goalie won't be able to stop the Flyer's offence for seven games)

Boston Bruins vs. Montreal Canadiens - Bruins in 7 (This series is going to be a bloody one, I'm excited. I just think Chara and the Bruins will be to big and tough for the Habs. A great goalie match up between Thomas and Price as well)

Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Tampa Bay Lightning - Pens in 6 (Tampa is too young, and the Pens have been playing great even without Crosby)

Western Conference:

Vancouver Canucks vs. Chicago Blackhawks - Canucks in 6 (CANUCKS!! Revenge on the Blackhawks finally!)

San Jose Sharks vs. Los Angeles Kings - Sharks in 6 (I love the Kings, but they're still too young and the Sharks maybe won't choke this year)

Detroit Red Wings vs. Phoenix Coyotes - Red Wings in 7 (From past experience, you always choose the Red Wings...they also beat the Coyotes last year in round 1)

Anaheim Ducks vs. Nashville Predators - Ducks in 7 (Nashville has strong defence, but Corey Perry, done.)

Overall, my pick is the Vancouver Canucks for the Cup! They won the President's Trophy with 117 points this season! With Luongo, the Sedin twins, Kesler, Burrows, Edler, Bieksa, Hodgson they're stacked....wooooooooooooo! Go Canucks!!
