‘Soupy’s Sweet Science’ (By Harry Palm Press):

We are a mere  3 days away  away from the classic ‘Stanley’s Cup’, and by now the coaches have finished drawing up their big plays – BUT will it end as they predicted,  with their team hosting the cup? For the past several years I have taken a crack at predicting the finalist – and modestly I remind my sole reader I have been bang on each time.  The success has mostly come from predicting which team would end up in the championship game; whilst the prediction of which team would actually take the cup home has been a little off.  This year, I again intend to predict the teams who will make it to the BIG game; but I am also going to try and predict game by game and overall standings.

I’ve looked at the teams closely, and stand by the prediction it will be the Soupy’s Sex Symbols and Beep’s Honey Badgers in the final.   


Let’s review – Tunzie has crafted a fine team, but really lost a significant defensive boost with having Chico don the pads.  On the floor Chico is a great D man, with a fine shot from the point.  Relegating him to net as a result of all the goaltender injuries and Bearcats retirement may have hurt the team.  It will be interesting to see how Chico fares come the 4th-6th games, considering playing net is a lot different than running the floor…..While Chico may have played a few games between the pipes this season, and done well – to play for an entire tourny is a whole different matter….Tournament day will see a Soupy/Beep near sweep, with each team only losing one time a piece to the other.  Come the championship game, Soupy  will take it by 2 goals.

The Titans will go 2-4 and the Marlies will post a 1-5 record.

BY THE GAME (TEAMS IN ALL CAPS PREDICTED TO WIN)

BEEP/Tunzie +1
Matador/SOUPY +2
TUNZIE/Matador +2
SOUPY/Beep +1
SOUPY/Tunzie +1
Matador/BEEP +3
Tunzie/BEEP +2
SOUPY/Matador +2
MATADOR/Tunzie +1
BEEP/Soupy +1
Tunzie/SOUPY +1
BEEP/Matador +1

Regardless of how accurate I am – or NOT; here’s hoping ALL teams enjopy the biggest show of the season.
