Throughout the 2015 Stanley Cup Playoffs, we’ve gone round-by-round and predicted the outcomes of each playoff series. With the conference finals starting today, the BSH staff has predicted who we think will make it to the Stanley Cup Finals.
BSH’s second round panel
- Travis Hughes, who is looking for a new bandwagon with the Capitals eliminated
- Kurt R., who is actually good
- Collin Mehalick, who is actually bad
- Kelly Hinkle, who still has not quit this website
- Al K., who is very excited to write this year’s edition of the Jay Rosehill performance review
- Meseret H., who has no more .GIFs to give because the stupid Flyers aren’t playing anymore
- Charlie O’Connor, who is unsurprisingly beating all of us at picking hockey games
- Kevin Christmann, who is probably getting tired of us making jokes about his $30,000 ring
- Allison J., who was the first to notice that Taylor Leier looks just like Vincent Lecavalier because holy crap he totally does
- Mary Clarke, who gets a pass for going 0/4 last round because she just graduated @college
- Ben Rothenberg, who missed the initial call for predictions that was sent out
- Ryan Gilbert, who has been killing it with his angry Rangers fan RTs on Twitter this postseason
- Campfire Bot, our friendly chat room computer (see it make its picks here)/
