Kilza posted:Honestly, you should be hopeful. The Flames are pretty much the best match-up the Ducks could have asked for, given the Ducks dominance over the Flames over the past few seasons, especially at home. Providing there isn't some serious injuries the Ducks should have an easy time getting to the second round. Two words: Randy Carlyle.

I think the Leafs lose in 5, would be pleased if it went to 6 and really just don't want them to get embarrassed if nothing else. I'm not very confident they won't but playoffs are weird so who knows. Go Leafs, Sharks, Caps (after they beat the Leafs), Preds and Oilers. Boo Habs just for the hell of it.

Us getting Bob Cole is legit the worst thing about these playoffs.

The Capitals are very good. They've got a lot of the right storylines going... the smart move at the deadline to get Shattenkirk, the young guns coming into their own, Justin Williams doing his whole veteran thing, a goaltender who can steal games. A pretty great penalty kill. I am predicting at least one game lost principally to a dumb thing Brooks Orpik does. I can also see Tom Wilson murdering a guy, but that could be strategically useful.

So happy the Toronto series dodged this. grack posted:Yet I would 100% prefer to listen to Bob Cole over Romanuk or Randorf Yea Bob Cole is easier to withstand than Romanuk, easily. They both forget/mistake names and are behind the play by a decent amount but at least Cole's voice isn't grating and I don't think he repeats the same talking points every 10 minutes like Romanuk does.

Kenny Alberts sucks. I'll grant he can competently report the play and has an inoffensive voice, but has the personality of a rock. Shoulda used Pat Foley. NBC's commentary group is garbage, regardless of the sport.

the other game, they swapped Louie and Cassie and it was fantastic. Louie was down between the benches where he belongs, because then there's a chance down there he can get hit in the face with a puck.

Yeah that's exactly how I feel, it's frustrating to hear the play get miscalled but Romanuk has no excuse. What bothers me most about Romanuk is how often he veers into armchair GM/coach territory when filling in space.

The first year Cassie Campbell-Pascale started doing NHL games for CBC she was a colour announcer for a bit. I miss it dearly and wish they'd give her another shot but I can't say I'm surprised she's been relegated to sideline reporting.

I can't imagine the trouble of breaking into the boys club as much as she has. Watching the vancouver stream with the 17 year old trying to do play by play, and the kings game with some guy who didn't know anybody's names dryly describing the game like he's ordering a pizza was terrible. We're drat lucky in edmonton, even drew remenda is knowledgeable and fun sometimes.

I don't know how you guys overlooked it, but seeing Dave Strader a) calling games again and b) calling playoff games again genuinely makes me happy. e- Also, the list posted in that tweet is apparently Game 1 only and broadcasters are subject to change. Gord Miller said he and Ferraro were doing NYR/MTL 1-4 and then getting like NSH/CHI. Additionally, local blackouts of NBC telecasts are apparently gone in all markets except Boston and Pittsburgh, so you have your choice of NBC or your local RSN.

what series do you guys think will be the most fun to watch? i feel like i gotta binge on as much playoff hockey as possible and i'll be watching cbj-pens anyway. i'll probably watch leafs-caps to hate-root against the caps but fat chance that isn't a curb stomp series

Sharks have the "almost-made-it" chip on the shoulder and the Oilers have the next-next-one. McDavid is going to be playing all out, and that alone is worth the time to watch (before his legs give out)
