It’s the Stanley Cup finals and this is the first time I’ve deemed it necessary to discuss Hockey. Only because I want to see if I’m right when I put together a prediction and this helps me not forget.Things I Know about the Oilers
They are an 8th seed. This doesn’t happen in the NBA, 8 seeds nowadays suck, so good for the NHL that they were a big surprise.
The Oilers were among the many to fleece the Bruins front office with trades grabbing Samsanov from the GM. Too bad hockey doesn’t get a ton of press else the GMs for the Bruins would take away some heat from Isiah Thomas.
The Oilers in order to get away from the attention in Edmonton, spent last week practicing in New York. Yes, to avoid distraction they went to NYC. Just shows you how big hockey is in New York after the Rangers get bounced.
Things I know about the Hurricanes
Way cooler when they were the Whalers. Way cooler.
Rod Brind’Amour wins a lot of face offs, so says my fantasy hockey team.
The Hurricanes were a high seed and fought for the best record in the NHL all year long.
The Hurricanes should use BrassBonanza as their theme song.
Prediction
Whalers, I mean Hurricanes in 5.
