The conference finals are over and the two teams are ready to play for what they have been training to win since october. Those teams are Ottawa and Anaheim.

Conf Finals Predictions:

BUF/OTT - OTT wins in 5 (my prediction BUF in 7)0pts

DET/ANA - ANA win in 6 (my prediction ANA in 6)5pts.

For a total of 5 out of 10. A 3 round total of 29/70.

Stanley Cup Prediction: ANA/OTT - Winner - OTT in 5. Keep your fingers crossed for the cup to come back to Canada!

These predictions were still a bit 50/50 but no matter, the 2nd round is done and its time to tally up my score.

BUF/NYR BUF wins in 6 (my prediction - BUF in 4) 1pt

NJ/OTT OTT wins in 5 (my prediction - NJ in 7)0pts

DET/SJ DET wins in 6 (my prediction - SJ in 6)0pts

ANA/VAN ANA wins in 5 (my prediction - ANA in 5)5pts

thats a total of 6pts out of 20. (not that great but at least its something.)

for a 2 round total of 24/60

Now its time for the Conference Finals Predictions!

(1)BUF - (4)OTT    Winner - BUF in 7

(1)DET - (2)ANA    Winner - ANA in 6

 Lets see if I can do a bit better with these predictions now.....

Well some of my predictions were close. Some games simply baffled me. I have no idea how some of those series were so lopsided. Anyway I'll give my predictions for the second round after a brief overlook at how well I predicted them. I've randomly decided to give myself points for how close I was.

BUF/NYI - BUF win in 5 (my prediction: BUF in 4) 3pts        

NJ/TB - NJ win in 6 (my prediction: NJ in 5) 3pts

ATL/NYR - NYR win in 4 (my prediction: ATL in 7) 0pts    

OTT/PIT - OTT win in 5 (my prediction: OTT in 6) 3pts

DET/CAL - DET win in 6 (my prediction: DET in 6) 5pts    

ANA/MIN - ANA win in 5 (my prediction: MIN in 7) 0pts

VAN/DAL - VAN win in 7 (my prediction: VAN in 6) 3pts   

NSH/SJ - SJ win in 5 (my prediction: SJ in 7) 1pt

Total: 18 out of a total-40 ( which would be hard to get.)

I based my point system on no. of games away from actual ones played and who actually won the series.

And now for Round 2 predictions. (these are the better of the 16 teams so it's going to be alot harder to predict.)

(1)BUF - (6)NYR   Winner: BUF in 4

(2)NJ - (4)OTT     Winner: NJ in 7

(1)DET - (4)SJ      Winner: SJ in 6

(2)ANA - (3) VAN   Winner: ANA in 5

Now we play the waiting game to see who makes it to the conference finals.

After the first round is over I'll give my predictions on the second round.

A couple of weeks ago I started playing FFVII again. I decided that I hadn't played it in a while so I think I'll beat the game for the 12th time now. (no joke...I love the game so much that I've been counting.) I've been playing it for about 45 hours now and I'm about to go to the temple of the ancients. (WHAT? It's taking you that long??) That's what most people would say, but the thing is.....all my characters are at lvl 99. ( and without cheating too ) I also have about 150 million gil. At this point money is now irrelevant, but it's fun to get the number as high as possible. The save screen doesn't even show the actual number it shows numbers and weird boxes. Now you can probly figure out how I got so much money...just master and sell the "all" materia. I had five of them at the current time. Then I sold the mastered ones and for some reason...... I only had four left? I had absolutely no idea how it happened. I looked at the newly "born" materia......and I also only had four. Well, I guess somethings are better left unsolved.
