EA Say Canucks in 7
According to EA, back in October 2010, when they ran their simulation engine, the Canucks won the President’s Trophy and met Boston in the finals, winning in 7 games with a heroic effort by Daniel Sedin.
Yeah whatever you probably say, but apparently the EA simulation engine predicted 13 of the 14 playoff series this year and narrowly missed a perfect record as San Jose edged Detroit in their game 7.
That is a little creepy I must say. Although if I were a betting man I would seriously consider following their prognostications.
They are going to run their simulation engine again on Monday with updated info. If Boston wins I don’t want to know about their prediction.
But if I was to make a prediction I would say the Canucks will win in 4 games. We won the first series in 7, the second in 6, the third in 5 so naturally we will win this one in 4.
Okay, maybe that is optimistic but I am sure we are the better team. We have great special teams, they don’t, especially their power play which has been abysmal. We were the highest scoring team in the league this year and allowed the fewest goals and we proved against Nashville that we can play that defensive, boring hockey that Boston is going to try against us.
Let’s go Nucks!!! You can do it. This is for all the marbles. A Stanley Cup for Vancouver will make the Olympic gold in hockey look like a novelty act.
