If TB plays to their abilities, they take it in 5. If they try and mail it in, they'll be out real quick.

Wait! What happened to TB in 3? Oh wait. That was some other poster. :D:D:D:D


Realistically, I don't think the series ends in 5.

I think it ends in 6. Now whether it's the Devils or Bolts, I don't know.

Nah, it actually isn't irrelevant at all if you know the story behind the build up to the 95 cup

Now, I doubt the Lightning are actually gonna plan their parade route NOW but you are saying the Devils have no chance like the Detroit and national media did then.

And then the Devils routed the Wings

Hell, many people said the Kings had no shot in 2012 as a 8th seed if you want a more modern example.

"No shot" is a fairly arrogant term by *fans* who are ignorant of history

You guys are too much. I don't pick your team to win, and you get offended.

Ok, I change my prediction, Devils in 4. :shakehead

So did the Red Wings in '95.

My point being is that Playoff Series aren't won on Paper.

Hahahaha, another Devils fan bringing up something from almost 25 years ago. Oh ya! Back in 1936 the Wings beat the Leafs in the Final! And the Leafs had the better roster! So underdogs can win! It happened in 1936!

This is too funny.

Hey man, pick what you want. I'm just saying that if you genuinely believe the Devils have no shot or even a team like the Avs have "No shot" then I would say you are looking at things with blinders on, at best

I don't mean it as a slight to NJ, but I just don't think they can hang with TB IF (and with how they've played the second half of the season, it's definitely a really big if at this point) they come out and play a full 60 minute game.

TB is very susceptible to trying to sleep through 2 periods in games before turning it on. That can't happen in the playoffs.

Should be a good series with a lot of speed.

Tampa in 6.

Will root for the winner of this series to go to the Cup.

Tampa clearly has the better team on paper, but we proved we could skate with anyone this season and even went 3-0 against them, so it's winnable. Tampa is the obvious favourite of course, but you can't count anyone out in the NHL with how much parity there is.

Devils in 6!

I have a long history of picking NHL playoff series as well as NFL games and MLB playoff series and am very good at it. My picks for this matchup is as follows:

Lightning in 4 (sweep special)

Tampa should win this one in 6, maybe 7 but at the same time, part of me thinks that they could be this year's biggest upset given how they have played in the last month or so.

Regular season is meaningless in the playoffs.
