In the East: **Sabres** VS. **Islanders** - Sabres in 4. No Dipietro, no way. **New Jersey** VS. **Tampa** - Jersey in 6. Brodeur vs. Denis/Holmvquist. lol, come on. **Atlanta** VS. **Rangers** - Atlanta in 7. The Rangers have been hot lately, but I really think Hossa and his crew will take this one. **Pittsburgh** VS. **Ottawa** - Pittsburgh in 7. I’m very, very excited to watch this series. It could go either way, but I’ll be surprised if it doesn’t go to game 7. In the West: **Detroit** VS. **Calgary** - Calgary in 7. Kipprusoff is a stud, and Detroit’s numbers are yet again inflated due to them being in the worst division in the league. **Anaheim** VS. **Minnesota** - I’m not really sure about this one. I want to say Anaheim in 6, but if Gaborik decides to take over, I think Minny can take this series in 7. **Dallas** VS. **Vancouver** - Luongo in 6. **Nashville** VS. **San Jose** - SJ’s lineup says that they will take it in 5, but their inconsistency says this series will go to game 7. I am also undecided about this series. But I’m going to guess that Nashville takes it. ---

[quote=“Tunerfreak,post:4005,topic:25170"”] yea [/quote] I watched it on adelphia all last year, and I’d say your guess of 10 seconds is pretty close. Probably a little less, but whatevs. DVR that shit and match it up. ---

Update on Dipietro. > **[Official Site of the National Hockey League | NHL.com](https://www.nhl.com/errors/not-found)** > > The official National Hockey League website including news, rosters, stats, schedules, teams, and video. > NY Islanders Game Breakers > DIPIETRO > Rick DiPietro: Expected to be in goal for Game 1 of the series after missing nine of the last 13 games of the year with concussion woes, DiPietro is the Islanders’ most important player. It was a struggle to win games without him down the stretch and his expected return will give the Isles an emotional lift, in addition to leveling the play between the pipes in the series. DiPietro has never won a playoff series, but in his last cameo – in 2004 against the Lightning – he showed flashes of brilliance, including his first career postseason shutout against the Bolts. This season, the 25-year old went 32-19-9 in 62 games with a 2.58 GAA and a .919 save-percentage. I’ll change my previous prediciton of a sweep to a 4-2 Buffalo series win. I think DP might steal a couple games. ---
