    Bill Clement - Prediction - Islanders in 6

    ESPN has this typists work

    Intangibles
    The Islanders have a swagger. And they are back in the playoffs for the first time in eight years. They are young, confident and think they can beat anyone, including Toronto, a team New York beat in three out of four meetings.
    Why do most American hockey columnists suck? Can they not learn the history or understand the game?

    Bill, not to hurt your simple ESPN sportsman mindset, the regular season means jack-squat. Learn this and maybe you'll have job security before someone at your piss-poor quality (hockey-wise) network actually discovers that hockey isn't just a sport, but the ultimate team sport.

    ----

    For those of us who understand hockey, we know the two factors of this series is Cujo being able to play at his incredible level, and can Alexi Yashin be a force, or he continue to be a playoff farce.

    ----

    Why do I bother?

    Prediction - Ottawa in 5

    You'd think the poor sap would learn

    I could counter point 'til I'm blue in the face. Bill doesn't seem to realise that on paper Ottawa has for the last few years looked better than the Leafs. Yet somehow, the Leafs seem to pull out the wins?

    Bill, I'll let you in on a little secret to NHL play-offs? Toronto is second to no one when it comes to desire... sadly the Wings are a close second and are second to no one in talent, but that's another series.

    It may take the Leafs 6 or 7 games, but they will not bow out to the Sens... even if things remain the way they are now.

    Let's see how my boys do in Game 2.

    I have to admit they looked really terrible last night. I mean the score was 5 - 0 but it wasn't really that close.

    When they win Game 2, our faith will be restored.
