00:00And we are two weeks away.
00:02Stanley Cup playoffs start two weeks from tomorrow.
00:05That's Saturday, two weeks away.
00:07And this is what you would get if it was today.
00:10Tampa against Florida in the first round,
00:12Carolina and New Jersey.
00:14Toronto would play Ottawa.
00:16Washington would play Montreal.
00:18You would get Dallas, Colorado in the West,
00:20LA Edmonton for the 900th year in a row in the West.
00:24You would get St. Louis playing Vegas
00:26and Winnipeg against Minnesota.
00:30Yeah, I mean, so give me the West again.
00:33The Jets are playing who?
00:35Dallas is playing Colorado.
00:37Vegas is playing who?
00:39Vegas would play St. Louis right now.
00:42Wow, they'd have their hands full.
00:43That's what Denny said, right?
00:45And then LA and Edmonton, which will be what?
00:47Four years in a row of that.
00:49Yeah, they've seen each other a lot.
00:52But the thing is, can LA finally beat them?
00:55Seems like Edmonton beats them every year.
00:56Can LA finally beat Edmonton in the playoffs?
01:00They've had a lot of problems with them.
01:02Didn't Drysado just get injured?
01:06Both of those guys have been banged up here or there.
01:09But I think that this LA team is better
01:11than the last few years.
01:12I think it's a better LA team.
01:14They got a shot.
01:15That's what they do out on the ice.
01:16So I think they do have a shot to maybe crack that egg.
01:19They're only three points back of Vegas for first now.
01:22So I wanna ask you, do you think that the Devils
01:27without Hughes, cause they're still going to the playoffs,
01:29have a shot at all against Carolina?
01:32I think they have no shot.
01:35That's a no-shot.
01:37Now, Carolina always pike.
01:42They always pike in the playoffs, Carolina,
01:45but they beat the teams they're supposed to beat generally.
01:47So without Hughes, I don't see how the Devils have a shot.
01:51And what about Panthers and Lightning?
01:54Who do you like there?
01:57Man, it's tight.
01:59It's brutal.
02:00You know, I really am gonna,
02:04I've got to keep subscribing to that.
02:06I wanna go after Florida because-
02:07Love Florida's better.
02:09They're better.
02:10I think Florida's better,
02:11but I think I would take Tampa in the series.
02:14Like, I'm gonna keep going through them.
02:16I just don't believe they're doing it three years in a row.
02:19They've been to the end two years in a row.
02:22This could be an early exit.
02:24If they were playing someone else,
02:26maybe they'd win, but against Tampa, hated rival.
02:30Two other teams have been playing each other every year.
02:33I think Tampa could get them this year in that first round.
02:36And lastly, Dallas and Colorado, who do you like there?
02:39They're both so good.
02:44Man, I wish they weren't playing in the first round.
02:46That's like a West final type of matchup.
02:48It is.
02:49You're gonna get in the first round.
02:52I think as much as I think, I have Colorado tickets,
02:55but I think Dallas is better than Colorado now.
02:58I do think Dallas is better than them.
03:01I don't know, man.
03:02And the goaltending's better.
03:03I think Colorado's lethal.
03:05And I'll give you the goaltending, I'll give you that,
03:10but I think it's gonna be,
03:11the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs
03:13is gonna be better than the NCAA tournament.
03:15The NCAA tournament was not good until the regionals.
03:20That's all there is to it.
