Ginger Donkey Hockey Predictions for NHL Conference Finals
Conference Finals Match-Ups
Western Conference
Dallas Stars Vs Vegas Golden Knights
Eastern Conference
Carolina Hurricanes Vs Florida Panthers
Review of the 2nd Round
Western Conference
Vegas over Edmonton in 6 games.
Dallas over Seattle in 7 games.
Eastern Conference
Florida over Toronto in 5 games.
Carolina over New Jersey in 5 games.
Proved to be a very interesting second round. All series were hard fought. For fans from Canada, disappointing is an understatement. Both the Edmonton Oilers and the Toronto Maple Leafs were dispatched to the golf course. They were the only two Canadian Teams to advance to the second round, and both had the high expectations of fans and experts alike.
The biggest surprise had to be the Florida Panthers. They defeated the Leafs in 5 games. Florida barely squeaked into the playoffs. David and Goliath match-up in the First Round vs the Presidents’ Trophy winner Boston Bruins who had a record 65 win season. They upset Boston in seven games.
Perhaps Florida should be taken more seriously.
Seattle was surprising given they are a second year franchise. Pushed Dallas to the limit.

Thank you for checking in with GDH, where our hockey fans are having fun.
Greetings. In introducing myself, I must relate that family is most important. I am a husband, father and grandfather. Beautiful extended family. I was born in the 60’s. Graduated from Laurentian University in Sudbury in 1985 with a degree in Social Work. Recently retired.
Sports has been and continues to be my foremost outlet for stress. I have been a coach/ trainer on over 40 youth teams, including hockey, baseball and soccer. Hockey is my number one sport. Began playing as a young child and continue to play several times per week. Huge Fan. I am not an expert per say when it comes to having close contacts to the hockey world. Still have expertise as a Fan. I have probably earned some form of “Hockey PTSD” over the years with the highs and lows of the cheering for the Leafs. I want to respectfully share my opinion and respectfully view your opinions. Should be fun. Keep your stick on the ice.
Take Care and Stay Safe.
