Re: ECAC Pick the Playoffs 2010

Seems like we (yes, I'm guilty, too!) do this every year. It's tough to predict who's going to win, so we all like to pick series to go 2-1. The reality is that even with two perfectly evenly matched teams, there's still a 50% chance that the series will be over in 2 games (i.e. that the game 1 winner also wins the second game), and any mismatch at all just increases the chance of a sweep above 50%. It seems like there are relatively few game 3's each year, which would back up this reasoning - anyone out there have time to check the stats? You'd think we'd learn...

I would think we would have greater odds of 3 game series this year, due to the fact that none of the eight teams in the first round swept the season series with their respective opponent. The scores of the head to head regular season games were all very close. home ice advantage does play into the scenario, but I think we will see one of the most entertaining and tightly contested ECAC playoffs in years.
