I like that I pay for Center Ice but still can't see the La/Chi game.
Thanks NBC! It's important to use NBCS for bad college bball anyways.

Not true. Live in America, have Directv, and then tell all games are being shown.
With CI only 2 of 3 are on. The NBC - Sports network is showing ivy college bb and not the other hockey game.

Eklund,

your entire west predictions are nothing short of a complete joke.

NSH loses Suter and a few goal scorers and you think they will hoist the cup?!?!?!

- FourFeathers773


Who are the goal scorers that NSH lost? Tootoo? Obviously you haven't see the depth of NSH's prospects. We were 9th in the league in scoring last year and return 11 of our top 12 forwards, 5 of our 6 D, and we still have Rinne.

Why does Mr Eklund hate the Red Wings so much? Every season recently he's had them missing the playoffs.
Disagree with the winner of just about every division.

With the short season, the races will be ridiculously tight. The top 7 teams in the East will be seperated by only 6 pts and the top 7 in the West by only 4pts! My picks are as follows:
EAST
1. Carolina 63pts
2. Philly 62pts
3. Boston 61pts
4. Rangers 62pts
5. Pens 61pts
6. Caps 59pts
7. Buffalo 57pts
8. Florida 54pts
9. Jersey 52pts
10. Tampa 50pts
11. Mont. 49pts
12. Jets 48pts
13. Leafs 47pts
14. Isles 46pts
15. Sens 45pts
WEST
1. Canucks 61pts
2. Blues 60pts
3. Sharks 60pts
4. Preds 60pts
5. Wild 58pts
6. LA 57pts
7. Chicago 57pts
8. Detroit 54pts
9. Oilers 53pts
10. Yotes 52pts
11. Ducks 51pts
12. Stars 49ps
13. Avs 48pts
14. Flames 41pts
15. Jackets 40pts

PLAYOFFS
EAST
Carolina over Florida in 6
Philly over Buffalo in 6
Boston over Washington in 6
Rangers over the Pens in 7

Rangers over Carolina in 6
Philly over Boston in 7

Rangers over the Flyers 7 (man I hate typing that!!)

WEST
Detroit upsets Vancouver in 7
St Louis over Chicago in 6
LA upsets San Jose in 6
Nashville over Minnesota in 6

St. Louis over Detroit in 6
Nashville over LA in 7

St. Louis over Nashville in 7

FINALS
As a Flyers fan this hurts, but my head says:
Rangers over the Blues in 6

God, I hope I'm wrong!!!!

Probably had something to do with the 40 min circle jerk to lead up, I think being docile would be expected.

With what goaltending and defence ?
- arnpriorguy


Matt Carle, Victor Hedman, Eric Brewer and Sami Salo is a pretty formidable top-4. Don't know how much Predators hockey you've watched, but Lindback is solid when he gets consistent starts.

I understand all the negativity towards the Habs this year, but its all because of last year results. I believe the Habs have a great chance at the playoffs if these 4 things happen

1. P.K Subban is signed within a week
2. NO INJURIES-never gonna happen - LESS INJURIES looking at you Markov/Gionta
3. Powerplay is better


Lets get something straight here,
1. people say Montreal has a AHL compared defense... Last year the Habs finished 11th best i believe in GA/G. They lost Hal Gill and Chris Campoli this year. Does the loss of the players make us that much worse?

2. The Habs had 2nd best PK in the league last year

3. 16!! yes 16!! Overtime/ Shootout losses, split that in 1/3 and its big difference

4. Last year was the worst year i can remember for our bleu, blanc et rouge, They played a large portion of that without there leader, Brian Gionta, if he can get back to his regular stats then the habs will have more scoring.

5. A.GALLY!!

6. 3rd/4th line depth. Moen/B.Gally,Eller,Bourque
White/Moen,Prust,Armtsrong

7. Did I mention that Scott Gomez is gone! wooohoooo

I predict the habs in 7-10th this year. Maybe I'm being biased, but have any of you seen the lineup??

MP,Little D, Cole
A.GallY , Pleks, Gionta
Moen/B.Gally,Eller,Bourque
White/Moen,Prust,Armtsrong

Gorges, P.K
Markov, Emelin
Diaz, Kaberle

Okay Kaberle's a wuss, another P.G era mistake, but where the hell is awful D
How do you have awful D and have 11th best GA/G.

you knw what i think??

- JesusPrice31


you must have spent a lot of time writing that post. here's my rebuttal:

habs finished last in the east last season. offseason additions: colby armstrong, brandon prust LOL

that took me less than 10 seconds to write.

The Ranger top offensive scorer will NOT be one of the big three, but rather be a surprise.

Rupp?

- GioRock


I mean if Ek was insinuating that it could be Callahan i wouldn't exactly sneeze at the possibility, but I wouldn't really refer to it as a surprise either.

It's like when he said last year that the Kings "could" win the Cup and now he is taking credit for predicting that they would win the Cup.

I see an often injured dman in salo brewer is past his prime and hedman needs to work on his defence and lindback has never been a starter so unproven sorry but I can see them having trouble with pretty much everyone in the division this year

Wait a minute, you're from Arnprior, and the spelling is pretty much perfect (except no capitals on surnames and no punctuation and a run-on sentence)?
