SPACE FACE! SPACE FACE!

I'm curious, does anyone ever compile how well the 'experts' do at this? I remember reviewing all the first round predictions for ESPN/NHL/Sportsnet before the series started just to get an idea of where consensus was, but I'm too lazy to go back and check them all again. I did a quick pan over on Sportsnet and none of them got 8/8, though Damien Cox got 7/8.

Lightning in 7
Ducks in 7 (i think that is what i put anyway)

actually kind of thing that the hawks are going to win in the west, but i went with the ducks at the beginning of the playoffs to come out the of west so i guess i'll go down with that ship

also pretty sure the conference finals are the teams i picked going into the playoffs and i've only gotten one round "wrong" so far (habs/senators and i always pick the canadiens to lose)
