Guardian Posted May 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2006 Western Conference Final Game 3 score: Edmonton: 5 - Anaheim: 4 (Edmonton leads series 3-0) (Note: It was one wild game. At one point, in the third period, Edmonton had a 4-0 scoring lead against Anaheim! It goes to show you that any team cannot be complacent at all, even with such a scoring scenario as this.) :shocked: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave199 Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 I'm very surprised by Edmonton's performance. An 8th seeded team looks poised now to advance to the Stanley Cup Finals. It's sorta funny because their province mate Calgary advanced to the Stanley Cup finals the last hockey season beforehand. Here's hoping that the Oilers will be the first Canadian team to win the cup since the 1993 Montreal Canadiens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian Posted May 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2006 Yeah, dave199. I have forgotten about whether Edmonton got into the playoffs in 2004 or not. Anyway, it will be great to see Edmonton in the Stanley Cup finals again after the team's win in 1990. Western Conference Final Game 4 score: Anaheim: 6 - Edmonton: 3 (Edmonton leads series 3-1) Oh, well. It could have been a sweep, but when you had Anaheim score 3 goals in the first period, it may have been trouble for Edmonton to pull it off.

Guardian Posted May 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 It will be another Canada/US Stanley Cup final! Game 5 of the Western Conference Final is just over and Edmonton has won 2-1 over the Anaheim Mighty Ducks. This win gives Edmonton the series 4-1 and the ticket to the Stanley Cup final. Will it face the Buffalo Sabres or the Carolina Hurricanes? Only time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian Posted May 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 While Edmonton is waiting for the other opponent to step forward, two more Eastern Conference Final games were played. Here's how they went: Game 5 (Sunday, May 28): Carolina: 4 - Buffalo: 3 (OT) Game 6 (Tuesday, May 30): Buffalo: 2 - Carolina: 1 (OT) The series is tied 3-3.

dave199 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Should be a good game 7, winner goes to the Stanley Cup Finals. I'm still betting on the Carolina Hurricanes. They'll have home-ice advantage on their side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll have home-ice advantage on their side. Which ever team from the Eastern Conference wins, it will have the home-ice advantage anyway. Edmonton ranked at the beginning of the playoffs in eighth place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave199 Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 As I predicted, its a Carolina - Edmonton Stanley Cup Finals. The best of luck to the Oilers, hopefully they can bring the Stanley Cup back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 The moment has come. Tonight, the contest for ice hockey's ultimate prize begins between Carolina and Edmonton. Will Edmonton get Canada the Cup back to Canada, after 13 years and after they got it in 1990? Or will Carolina did what Tampa Bay did the last time: have its first one?

That needs to be grammatically corrected..haha Anyways, it's a tough call on who wins. Both teams are very talented and on hot streaks. My support will be behind Edmonton.

It was Edmonton. TSN has the monkey that spins the wheel to predict the winner. That monkey seems to be a psychic since 85% of the teams he's selected have gone on to win their series since TSN had started this a few years back. Take it for what it is but this bodes well for Edmonton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
