Is picking in the playoffs harder then the regular season?

I'm wondering if you guys feel the same way. Do you find it harder to pick in the playoffs than in the regular season. With so little games I find the lines are too good and there's not much value.

I haven't layed on as many games as in the regular season. I find too many are toss ups and hard to predict.

I think it's much harder especially in pucks IMO.

Mike Keenen said it best many years ago. He was quoted as saying "just as long as my team makes it into the playoffs we have just as good of shot at winning the cup as the first place team".


Most Hockey teams just put it on cruise control thru the season, and turn it up come playoff time.
