Who's getting swept? (or no sweeps at all...?)

[BuLLeT1291]

Jets outscored blues 18-10 this year. You're on crack if you think a blues team with sub par offence will sweep the jets.

Pre December blues and post December blues are 2 completely different teams. We have anything but a sub par offense. All 4 lines are rolling right now and we have what? 13 forwards with double digits goals? Cmon now...

 

[DCDM]

No sweeps.

 

[Brock Radunske]

How does Tampa have votes?!

 

[Khelandros]

Calgary gets swept because of reasons.

If those reasons are goaltending, then you are correct.

How does Tampa have votes?!

Someone picked them to get swept. That's the only reason they could have votes.

People are just mad we’ve pretty much won the cup before the playoffs have even started. It’s difficult being the Golden State Warriors of the NHL.

 

[Zazzaro703]

I picked Tampa, Capitals gave the league the blueprint on how to beat them. Stay out of the box and hit them hard.... they fold like a bunch of cowards and get shutout. You’re welcome....

 

[IndustryLeech]

They're soft. Goaltending is a question mark. They are looking past their opponent. They have almost no playoff experience. etc...

Take your pick.

I don't think Columbus will get swept, they have a very good roster from bottom to top, and I think they can steal a game or 2.

Same with Toronto, their forwards are too good not to explode to win at least a game.

I'd pick Dallas just for the sake of picking one.

 

[tony d]

No sweeps this yr.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Leafs for sure. Garbage that will be swept.

If the 7th best team in the NHL is garbage what does that say for 2/3's of the league?

 

[M2Beezy]

Columbus and Colorado maybe San Jose Stlouis Toronto and Carolina

More I think about the more short first round series Ive predicted this year then normal

 

[Bedards Dad]

Carolina, Colorado, or Dallas are my guesses if anyone.




29 fans is far less than 19% of HF.

45 fans now. You don't need an answer from every single poster to have a valid answer. We are at about 200 votes so far, so its starting to become statistically relevant.

Looking past their opponent?? I think not.... Plus nobody is talking about Rantanen. Sure he will be back, but will he be effective? So they have 2/3rds of a line. Colorado has to score to actually win you know?

I'd wager that no one voting for Toronto truely believes they'll be swept. It's a vote meant to irritate sensitive fans, as a lot of posters think that it's absolutely hilarious.

No on seriously believes that a team with Matthews, marner, tavares, Nylander, Rielly, muzzin and Andersen is getting swept.
That's a team with 2 top ten centers, a Norris candidate and a top 5 goalie.

Its meant to piss off leafs fans.

Its unlikely but I could see it happening against Boston.

 

[Echo Roku]

I don't think Toronto will win their series either but 17% of HF thinks they'll get swept? Your bias is showing.

Or better yet, some people see polls like this as an excuse to mess with people that would actually take that seriously

 

[Echo Roku]

It says their fans are a lot less easy to mess with

You could literally say that for every series in both directions. Way to go out on a limb there..

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Avs for me.

If the Flames win the first game i think they can just cruise through the series. Probably not happy with their effort in the last 2 games of the season and whenever they've snapped skids they've been excellent at following it up with streaks this season. Better team, swept Avs in the reg. season with comebacks and everything.. I think it could just be too much.

Throw away the last 2 games of the season - especially against the Oilers. I think they played cautiously so as to avoid injury. Gaudreau was ONLY playing to get to 100 pts. Otherwise he would have sat too.

 

[BTP]

Boston

 

[Rubi]

Ha Ha... love the 12 people who voted that Calgary will get swept.

 

[Pilky01]

I have a hard time imagining the Leafs winning a game.

Lol wut

I think Washington should sweep Carolina, but not sure if they will
