Topic: Stanley Cup Playoffs 2019

Playoffs started today. Who you got?

Here's my prediction:

[Player One]

Whoa! You think TBL is getting knocked in the 1st? Bold prediction

I mean they did choke in game 1 and blew a 3-0 lead.

Fair.
I didn't watch much hockey again this year so all I'm hoping for is the Leafs and Bruins getting knocked out in consecutive rounds (because I'm a petty Mtl fan).

[Markkenko]

19 goals scored in the final!? Daaamn, by that standard it's going to be a 4 or 5 game series for Boston haha!

I have a few brackets. I'm mostly intrigued to see what Tampa can actually do, if the Isles can get past round two, and if Nashville can go all the way. I'd love to see St. Louis go all the way, but I just don't see them getting by Winnipeg, then Nashville, and then Vegas or Calgary (if that's how it plays out...).

Should be a great playoffs though!

My pick is still Tampa (even after their game 1 collapse).

Crap, I changed my bracket last minute before the playoffs started that the Jackets would take it in 5 instead of 7 games. Who knows what will happen.

That's just wild. If Columbus does in fact get through (which i'm absolutely rooting for at this point), that's probably 70% of brackets busted right there.

I was hoping for a Winnipeg/Calgary conference final, but the Flames aren't looking so hot at the moment. Hoping the Jets can carry momentum from Game 3.

ugh i didnt even bother watching the game last night, we got slaughtered with 3-0 in the first period. Guess i shouldnt have cut the tag off of my jersey that i bought three days ago

The @bluejacketsnhl’s series victory over Tampa Bay was selected by only 3.5% of entrants in the 2019 #StanleyCup Playoffs Bracket Challenge presented by Jägermeister - with only 0.24% choosing a CBJ sweep.

uckfay me, right? Yeesh, couldn’t adapt to the pressure cbj was applying I guess

Sooo....

Tampa: Gone in 4
Calgary: Gone in 5
Nashville: Gone in 6
Washington: Gone in.... 7?

So far, I have gotten one pick correct. The NY Islanders in a sweep. I'm all for having the Canes take the caps tonight.

Tomorrow*, and I’ll be cheering for the Caps hah.
Should be a good couple of Game 7’s tonight though!

Yeah I forgot to do my bracket this year with this being my busiest tax season to date.
Informally I talked it over with my buddy and I had Cal - TB in the final with TB winning.

Otherwise the only teams I had moving on or still alive are blues (though I wanted Jets - Cal semi), Boston and Wash.
Kinda glad I never did an actual bracket.

Same; I would have picked NSH, WPG, CGY, SJS, TBL, BOS, WSH, NYI if I did. 3 or 4/8 in the first round.

Yeah forgot I had SJ too, losing to Cal tho

[RhinestoneChow]

Well my guess of who's playing in the finals is correct. Everything in between was wrong haha.

I looked at your bracket and had to do a double check on the date, calling the Blues to the finals is impressive. But then I saw ever other pick was wrong pretty much in the first round lol. This has been a messed up playoffs this year. A shame the Flames looked so bad. Go Raptors!
