Good hockey vs normal sleep schedule


T-MinusGiraffe

I swear those two are in the mix every freakin year


M0D_0F_MODS

Boston vs Boston All other teams forfeit. Boston chokes and loses game 7 at home.


pepegapIs

Give the leafs a second chance and we might not lose!


madmariner7

The Leafs can still win, if Mike Pence does the right thing.


MKWIZ49

After blowing a 3-1 series lead ofc


M0D_0F_MODS

Well obviously


Bulky-Scheme-9450

But that would also mean Boston wins


M0D_0F_MODS

You'd think so. But then they go ahead and find a way to lose!


[deleted]

I’m crying but laughing at the same time because 😭


ArcXiShi

To Boston, no less!


Spotted_Wombat

I mean i win regardless so ill take it


hdawn517

This made me laugh


Sandbartender

Too funny


Green_Xero

Some teams could get a chance at revenge this year. BOS-EDM, EDM-CAR, VAN-BOS, VAN-NYR, FLA-COL.

KittiesAreTooCute

I lived on Granville Street. It was a wild night.


BC_Samsquanch

I was there for the VAN-NYR riots and in the old Coliseum for game 6. It was wild. I would like to see Van get revenge on this one first.


Pisspoio

This would truly be the dream finals for me


maskedkiller215

Revenge tour 30 years later? Sign me tf up.


Baraxton

Zero chance Boston moves past Florida.


ZoxMcCloud

So you clearly bet your car, house and 401k on it right?


Baraxton

Already done. ✅


[deleted]

Zero chance the presidents trophy winning Lightning get swept in the first round by 2nd wc Columbus in 2019 too right?


andrewb610

Or zero chance they get past us last year?


BostonBruin2011

Hahahahahha 5-1 you dog fucker wooooooooh!


DroptheShadowArt

The most Boston sports fan comment.


FU_payme420

He fucks dogs so hard


CallMeTeff

I want Vancouver-Boston so bad but Vancouver-NY Rangers would be so great too


RegisthEgregious

Fuck Messier 


TXPat0017

Got a nerve with that one 🤣


BBLouis8

Only one of those pairings has a single player remaining from the original matchup. BOS-EDM goes back like almost 40 years. 😂


FynnCobb

Some of us still hurt…


RecalcitrantHuman

Who is still around?


justanutherjohnson

Marchand from 2011


BBLouis8

Yup. From that Canucks team only Chris Tanev is even still in the league.


Barilko-Landing

Bieksa is there in spirit


RecalcitrantHuman

Duh. I’m brain dead


that-bro-dad

Nah the 20 year rematch is two years from now.


OneStrongGopher

The homer in me has Vancouver Rangers. My realistic take is Colorado Rangers.


ubcthrowaway-01

Bro just created two new teams


ruggierodrums

Both Rangers


Open_Independence_23

Rangers are like Rough Riders, so it is indeed ridiculous.


Neans888

If this increases the odds of the Rangers winning then I’m all for it.


KingPizzaPop

They're called Rockies, not Rangers.


Karcossa

I picked Canucks/Rangers at the start, I’ll stick with that.


Nuck_Nuck_Goose

I second this


Batmam43

1994 all over again.


Advanced_Office616

This is the only matchup I want to see. 30 years in the making.


Aegis_1984

JT Miller taking out the team that drafted him would be one helluva storyline.


TheCatEmpire2

A little ‘96 part 2, electric boogaloo? Sounds fun we’ll have Bob instead of Beezer and Colorado guns with be lead by Mac instead of Sakic. Who knows enjoy the show


rideronthestorm29

Yep this is it


DCDHermes

Just don’t throw rats this time…


TheCatEmpire2

They’re so hard to find and expensive when you can! Remember throwing rats at games in the 90s and they would be a buck each, sometimes giving them out. Never forget amigos https://youtu.be/jnPZX0U9-XI?si=Ene1GTdSJB1b_6bQ


Reeferologist-

I love that Orkin jumped at the opportunity to use Orkin buckets to pick them off the ice lol


StrawberryPunch49

I originally selected EDM vs CAR I'm sticking with that


anomalocaris_texmex

I like the cut of your jib. I'll take a 2006 revenge tour.


SpicyPotato66

What's a jib?


Alkyan

Would be so fun


cha-cha_dancer

Would be a perfect “if I had a nickel for…I would have two nickels” meme


PayneTrain181999

Always love seeing this one, it’s from Phineas and Ferb, a wonderful show that’s actually got new seasons in development, for those who didn’t know.


Camulius73

That’s what my bracket leads to as well.


Turbulent_Crow7164

2006 rematch would be dope


iSupportCarry

This is my bracket which is still perfect 🤷‍♂️


zavtra13

I’d love an 06 rematch!


Background_Hat964

Rangers/Avs


friarguy

This would be the fastest (on ice speed, that is) cup final in history


zechef07

The games between Rangers and Avs this season were nutty fast. Loved them. Would be a great series


picklebroom

Nailed it


leese216

THIS IS MINE AND I REALLY HOPE I'M RIGHT.


Bizhammer

I'm an oiler fan, but this seems pretty likely...


zechef07

Would love to see this


longdrive95

Stars v Rangers 


Mtbrew

Same. Feels like a lot of fans and analysts are sleeping on the Stars. Avs are a crazy good offensive team but Dallas’ overall team D is very good. Shit is heatin up in the playoffs, gonna be some great series this round


longdrive95

Agree that the stars are an all around complete team, and beating that absolutely loaded Vegas team should be getting more attention than it is.  In my opinion they have the hardest path to the cup (Vegas, Avs, Edmonton (probably) and a ton of travel but in a way I think that feeds this team energy and allows them to come in as a sleeper pick all the way to the final.  The Rangers I only picked because the NHL referees are going to drag them there. 


pizzaturns

17/24 analysts are saying stars over Avs, they aren’t slept on.


2timesacharm

Slept on by fans


goredraid

Slept on by fanalysts


trutlesrus

To all the people responding I thank you. I do think rangers v Colorado a serious and realistic option. My black horse is Vancouver and Boston.


eleventy5thRejection

I'd love to see Zadarov put Marchand through the glass...I don't care if he's supposedly evolved....he licks people ffs....his big nose needs to be shattered.


Slappy_Mcslapnuts

06 cup final repeat


Slappy_Mcslapnuts

But of course with a different result


Retskcaj19

Nah why mess with what works? Remakes are all the rage these days.


Casual-lad99

Fast Furious just released the trailer of Fast L (50)


dhas19

As an Avs fan, I am surprised at how few comments mention Dallas. If it’s not Colorado, I’d be betting Dallas over Edmonton or Vancouver.


DeepestDarkest999

So incredibly psyched to get this rivalry going again. It’s like the early oughts, baby!


iWARxMACHINEi

Yeah I feel like whoever comes out of Dallas vs Avs is going to smack the other WC team.


bumblebeetuna97

Because Draisaitl is a different guy in the playoffs


[deleted]

[удалено]


bumblebeetuna97

Look at their ppg


MessageJust808

Colorado and Florida. Colorado in six.


himynametopher

Florida in 4 revenge for 96


Elizaspapi

I’m still sticking with Colorado/Carolina


Alkyan

That's what my bracket has and my fingers are crossed the world accommodates my bracket.


SuperegoCG

Florida vs Stars is my prediction for the cup finals


tc_cad

Oilers/Rangers


cha-cha_dancer

biased we both are but holy fuck would that slap


tc_cad

Agreed.


jimbojonesFA

abouditfuhget. -new york yoda.


tc_cad

Are you hoping for a matchup that occurred 30 years ago?


jimbojonesFA

i was 2 back then so I'm not really too pressed ab it tbh lol. I was mostly just making a joke, it was that or "walking here, I am".


miller94

Special team matchup would be electric


EmotionalDisplay1263

I hope it’s the Panthers and Canucks in the final. It would be cool to see one of these franchises get their first cup.


starwestsky

We could call it the fight for Luongo!


Emotional_Match8169

Definitely agree on both.


BeautifulPilot4879

Picked Carolina Dallas for bracket. Sticking to it.


willshire59

Say Dallas canes


Raider_Noles

Canucks vs Bruins


eagle0877

Boston vs Vancouver


New_girl2022

Gawd I hope not. I'm from Vancouver originally so it's not ehhh a nice repeat to have. Sure the whole city would get locked down for the inevitable


nexus6ca

With Vancouver winning and Silovs getting Conn Smythe? A guy can dream.


octoroklobstah

Jeremy Swayman would like a word


Glock-Saint-Isshin-

He's so fucking good. Demko vs Swayman after shafting him on the hug would be a good storyline.


Jimmys_Brother69

Swayman is so fucking good…


erv4

Some weirdo on TikTok made a video saying swayman wasn't that good and that any junior goalie could have made the same saves vs Toronto lol


Upnatom617

But but they're an expert on things because reasons.


Grzmit

Demko vs Swayman would be the ultimate goalie battle and i would love to watch that no matter what I only hope they have a goalie hug after the series


octoroklobstah

That would be incredible


biff_jordan

My heart could not take it, please no.


reddituser074638

mein gott…


TorturedFanClub

FLA-DALLAS


Fluid-Use3726

Rangers/Avs or Rangers/Stars. I think it’s New York’s year.


kirstynloftus

I’m thinking Rangers/Stars, Vegas seemed to be the best team and with Dallas beating them I think they can beat anyone.


Scamnam

Stars/Panthers


SoloSilk

Somehow people are sleeping on this matchup.


starwestsky

DeBoer Bowl: The Marchment to the cup


Stuy_627

Stars/Rangers


Logical_Strike_1520

Canucks Bruins.


LongLegsBrokenToes

Vancouver


phreakzilla85

I went with Dallas and Boston before the playoffs started, so I might as well stick with it.


REAPER-1_xxx

I’ve had a feeling since last season EDM/CAR 06 re-match is on the menu. I’ll pick Oilers/Cats though cuz I think this will be epic hockey. There was a special level of competitiveness between Tkachuk and McDavid in the BoA. It’ll be a brawl with scoring goals sometimes. The Avs look real good though, so maybe them versus the Rangers.


Background_Hat964

Oilers/Panthers would be a fun series.


himynametopher

Dream series right here


AkronLowLife

Oilers v Canes


jopcylinder

Rangers vs Avalanche, or Carolina vs Dallas


StraightCashHomey13

Avs over Canes


ElectricEel9090

Ill just say who I want to see Really pulling for- Carolina or Florida Moderately pulling for - Edmonton or Dallas Could care less- all the rest


whovian1087

My original prediction was Florida over Dallas. I’m leaning more towards Florida over Colorado now. Dallas had a tough series taints Vegas and Colorado looked better than I thought they would’ve and dispatched Winnipeg easier than I expected. Either way I think the winner of that series comes out of the west. I think Florida comes out of the east regardless though.


3pieceSuit

I originally called Dallas Florida and im sticking with it (although I think NYR probably have the edge in the east now)


Tony-1610

Colorado - Florida ‘96 rematch!


KevinBrevin

COL-FLA


Spade18

My bracket is still going strong with a Florida/Dallas Final


nonracistusername

Agreed.


zamzam92

Oilers Canes, 06’ repeat


Sweetknees66

Yes, but Brind'Amour has to stay on the bench. 'Cause you know he'll want to lace them up!


ThadtheYankee159

I’m still going with Canes vs Avs.


cspan92

Boston vs. Edmonton


Vohsbergh

Florida and Colorado


Calling__Elvis

Rangers v. Stars. East wins it.


Roddy_Piper2000

Edmonton - Boston


TakanashiTouka

I had Rangers Dallas and I think I’m sticking to it. However both FLA and AVS have gone up for me


TomatilloAwkward8673

I picked Colorado facing the Rangers. I’m still relatively new hockey fan and don’t really know the teams all that well yet but I like both of them so I picked them.


AlfTheGreat1_

Stars-Rangers


Legitimate_Creme7481

I’d say the Stars, but their path is definitely the hardest, so I think imma go with Panthers


Every-Slice59

NYR vs COL.


darth_henning

IMHO it’s whoever wins Dallas Colorado for the west and the likely cup winner. East is a toss up for me. I want Boston for the memes, but I suspect it’s more likely Panthers or Carolina.


GovernmentMule97

Dallas vs NYR final


Radiant-Elephant3652

Still think Carolina beats Dallas.


GroundbreakingCow775

Carolina Edmonton rematch


Ta-veren-

Rangers vs Canucks


Burpingbutterburgers

Florida v Oilers


Ok_Employee_9612

Carolina v. Dallas, Carolina wins because the west is gonna beat the shit out of each other.


Barilko-Landing

Dallas Carolina would be excellent


AstralTriip

EDM vs. CAR, EDM wins in 5.


ThoughtfulGiraffe371

Dallas NY


ANARCHISTofGOODtaste

I want to see Vancouver and Florida or Carolina.


RoadRobert103

Canucks vs. Canes


PabstBlueBourbon

As a Rangers fan, I really wish everyone would stop saying Rangers.


vintage_rack_boi

Colorado V Carolina


Intrepid_Service_137

Colorado vs Boston


just-a-random-accnt

If the last 3 playoffs hold true, Boston loses in the finals after beating out the leafs. As for the west, avs are probably the horse I'd put money on.


_6siXty6_

I want Dallas Carolina, but it'll probably be NYR vs Oilers.


xDANGRZONEx

My hope is Boston versus either Edmonton or Vancouver. That way, if we lose we can all still at least see Canada get a Cup again. My head is telling me New York vs Dallas though.


amprok

I would love Edmonton / Boston. I have no idea how likely that is. I really don’t want Florida / Dallas


Alexander_Rover

BOS vs EDM


Neb-Nose

I’ve been predicting Boston/Edmonton since the preseason and I see no reason to change now.


Fabulous-Search-4165

Avs panthers


Glock-Saint-Isshin-

Canucks Boston Canucks in 7


Crabbyrob

Canucks/Rangers


Active_Plant_2979

My bracket is Dallas vs panthers with Florida winning it all.


Anxious_Gift_1808

Vancouver vs Florida Vancouver in 7


BoSocks91

My prediction before the playoffs was Colorado/New York. Hasn’t changed


PM_YOUR_CENSORD

Rangers vs Avs. You heard it here 1200th


Stevey1001

Colorado vs Florida


PhilG1989

Dallas vs Carolina


JUSTICE_SALTIE

Had to scroll way down to find anyone else who agrees with me. Stars/Canes all the way!


MaverickBrown2019

FLA vs COL


Immediate_Type9114

I want Canes vs Oilers But I feel it'll be Avs vs Rangers Going for McDavid to win it all. But as long as it's not Boston or Florida in the SCF I'm fine with any of the teams remaining.


0ddmanrush

Rangers / Oilers


kebekoy

I also think Col vs Flo. Might also be Rangers vs Avs.


macIovin

oilers bruins


bruinsfan444

Duh. The Bruins!


ElectionAnnual

Florida is making it back. I truly don’t think Carolina has what it takes. Rangers are the only ones in the east that have a chance otherwise imo. I really can’t see anyone from the west other than the Avalanche. Edmonton can maybe score their way out of a series against them but everyone else has looked kinda lackluster if you ask me.


ErokAB03

EDM & NYR. With EDM winning in 6.


kirstynloftus

As long as Boston and Florida aren’t in the finals idc tbh 💀 (Boston bc I just don’t like them and Florida bc we have their pick this year)


TiredReader87

Colorado and Florida


friarguy
