Wouldn't it be neat if Vancouver and Montreal met in the finals? Won't happen because the fix is in. The NHL wants 2 U.S. teams in the finals for the American TV audience.
Rediculous comment.
Think of how many people would have to be in on the conspiracy.
And, you want them all to remain silent for the rest of their lives ?
Rediculous.
If a fix was truly in, don't you think that Washington would have beaten the Montreal Canadiens ?
Just watch and see. If Vancouver and Montreal are in the finals, I will edit my post.
Gotta agree with Pencil on this one.
Individual sports like boxing can be fixed but team sports are next to impossible.
Plus the best way to guarantee certain teams get in every year is to not have a salary cap.
Like my beloved Yankees.

Ok, let's face the facts. The Commissioner (look what he did to that RIM guy) is anti-Canadian and that attitude goes down the rank from there. He and his peons want TWO American teams (hopefully big market like Philadephia) in the finals and that is exactly what will happen. Watch the officiating very carefully. (Did you notice how the officials got New Orleans into the Super Bowl? It can be done.)
That's not completely accurate. Gary Bettman was instrumental in establishing the revenue sharing plan (Canadian Assistance Plan) the N.H.L. ran through the late 1990's and early 2000's.
Without this plan, it is possible that Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, and Ottawa all would have lost their franchises. He was instrumental in finding new ownership in Ottawa when the team was bankrupt, keeping the team in the city.
The biggest scandal is sports will be in the TMLs ever make it to the playoffs and win the Stanley! That would a conspiracy story for the ages.
Montreal over Pittsburgh in 7
Boston over Phily in 6
I'd like to the Blackhawks in from the there playing Montreal in the Finals

It would be more of a fix if Vancouver and Montreal should meet in the final. Vancouver has a 25% chance while Montreal has .01% (only because "you never say never").
my picks also...
I was going with Philly in the series until all of the injuries started to hit them at the end of the last series.
Vancouver in 6
Detroit in 7
Pitt in 4
Bos in 5
Boston is getting healthier and Philly is getting beat up. depth is important in rounds 2+
Injuries to the Flyers, damn I forgot about that. It hit me when watching yesterday's game.
I am now leaning toward the Bruins in six or seven. Nice come back performance by Savard.
Here is an idea. Why not split the NHL into the Canadian League and the American League? The winner in each league will play each other in the "World Series (of hockey)".
Maybe because there are only 6 Canadian teams, just off the top of my head.Here is an idea. Why not split the NHL into the Canadian League and the American League? The winner in each league will play each other in the "World Series (of hockey)".
