How terrible are the NHL analysts?

Question

I watch/listen to quite a bit of NHL coverage and EVERY "expert" was ranting and raving how Tampa Bay would have a walk in the park against the Blue Jackets and would either sweep them or win it in 5. NOT 1 expert that I've heard ever mentioned that they'd have their hands full in this series.

Just goes to show you that most of these on the air don't know jack.

I don&#x27;t think anyone, besides the Jackets and their families thought something like this was possible

To be fair, it didn&#x27;t matter if you were a pro analyst or not, we ALL thought Tampa would win in 5 or less.

I agree with you Lippsman and weeble5672 no one seen a sweep coming. It was something that rarely happens. Tampa went down the stretch playing meaningless games. Columbus was in playoff mode for the last month of the season. It&#x27;s no excuse for Tampa. Columbus deserves all the credit they out played Tampa in every part of the game.
