Move over, Maggie

You remember Maggie the Macaque. She's the prediction whizz over at TSN who picks - fairly accurately until this year - the winners of upcoming hockey playoff contests.

It appears Maggie has gained some competition recently. Meet Pepper, a poodle who shares the same unbridled enthusiasm for calling out victorious teams, though with a bit more incentive:

What's next, I ask: Narwhals? Ring-tailed Lemurs? Perhaps a Caiman?

Oh, and for the record, Florida beat the Pens 4-2 that night (April 5th, 2009). She's got spunk, that pooch, but no faith in the Cats.

Thanks, PoodlePicks!
