After an agonizing period without hockey, finally now there is more hockey.
Meanwhile, your prediction boys got positively dumpstered in the second round, with just two correct predictions out of 12. Let’s do it again!

The first round of the loffs went exactly — EXACTLY — as we all expected. Sid, Ovi, and Connor all got eliminated, and John Tavares almost died.
Time for our round two predictions– even tho round one has not technically ended yet. We can wait no longer.

The best couple weeks of professional mens hockey begin tonight as the whatever-we’re-calling-the-first-round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs kicks off. But before the loffs can truly begin, we must first consult the oracle of the ages, a coin that magically correctly guesses the winner of playoff series about half the time.
Also me and Ian are doing our predictions.

It all comes down to this. The Dallar Stars have a chance to win their first Cup since Pantera was releasing new music. The Tampa Bay Lightning have a chance to win their first Cup since back when CO2 levels were under 400 parts per million. And Keith, who is a coin, must get the final right or else he’ll be below 50 percent.

The second round of the playoffs was a lot of fun, and not only because Ian went 0 for 4 in his predictions. Now the stakes get even higher, as we’ve got just two series to predict.

Aside from the unbearable pain of the Capitals playing terribly, the first round was every bit as exciting as I hoped it would be. Now the stakes get higher, even if we are no longer buried in games.
Prediction time!

The fake playoffs are over. They were stupid, except for when Toronto was sad. Here now come the real playoffs. Let’s embed that one tweet.
why watch overtime playoff hockey when you can simply snort cocaine and ride a motorcycle out of a helicopter

Let’s do predictions.

The third round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs was brutal. The San Jose Sharks, devastated by injury, failed to get the baffling calls necessary to defeat the St. Louis Blues, who now enter the final round for the first time since the mid-17th century. The Boston Bruins, who are neither big nor bad, stomped the Carolina Hurricanes in four vicious games, led, I’m sure, by the pure hockeysexual charisma of Marcus “Joe Hanson” Johansson.
Now, just a scant 49 years later, the Bruins and Blues have their rematch. Some experts are saying it’s a coin toss, so let’s, um, ask a coin.

With another dramatic couple of weeks, the NHL playoffs now roll into the third round. We had one sweep and one double-OT game-seven elimination, so as long as you could stay up late at night, you had a good round.
But the time for delighting in past is over. It’s time for predictions. It’s time for Keith, a coin.

Round one was buckwild. Every division champion got eliminated, we got some very unlikely sweeps, and we got some dramatic games seven. There’s no way round two can match it, but let’s make predictions anyway.
Let’s visit with Keith, a coin.
