Maggie the Monkey returns to the NHL on TSN
<TABLE cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=1 width=627 bgColor=#fbf4ea border=0><TBODY><TR><TD>
In 2003, she quickly became a hero in the hockey world, picking the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim to reach the Stanley Cup Final with the spin of a wheel. Having picked other big winners through three rounds of the playoffs, Maggie enjoyed new-found fame as the sport's wisest prognosticating primate.
The Stanley Cup simian was not as successful in her 2004 postseason run, though she did pick the Tampa Bay Lightning and Calgary Flames to meet in the Final. Maggie then picked Darryl Sutter's squad to take it all, but Lightning head coach John Tortorella had other ideas as Tampa Bay won the Cup in seven games.
The NHL lockout gave our little friend some time to recharge, and now she's ready to start all over again for the 2006 Playoffs.
Follow Maggie's selections on the NHL on TSN and TSN.ca, and see how she fares against our panel of hockey experts - Bob McKenzie, Pierre McGuire and Darren Pang. Playoff analyst Bill Berg, seen nightly on NHL Network's NHL on the Fly Playoff Edition, also makes his selections.
