1. Pittsburgh v Ny Islanders - Really interested in this series to see if Fleury falters again in the playoffs. But with Vokoun a quality backup, i dont see an upset. Pens in 6.
2. Montreal v Ottawa. I'm predicting an upset here. Carey Price has been very poor lately and Ottawa are getting healthy at the right time. Ottawa in 4.
3. Washington v Ny Rangers. Ovi is in beast mode and not even King Henrik can stop him. Caps in 5.
4. Boston v Toronto. This one will be epic and go to 7 games. Boston playoff experience will give them the edge via Jagr game 7 OT goal.

1. Chicago v Minnesota. Hawks in 4, Minny is just making up the numbers.
2. Anaheim v Detroit. Really tough one to predict for me. Detroit in 7. BB run and gun style doesnt really work in playoffs too well.
3. Vancouver v San Jose. Nucks in 6 in a low scoring series.
4. St Louis v Los Angeles. LA in 4. Elliott will choke!

With my Coyotes gone (possibly forever ), I'm jumping on the Leafs wagon.

Going to be a very short ride, four nights.

 

[sens]

Going to be a very short ride, four nights.

Nah I'd say 7 nights.









3 days off in between

 

[giggler99]

Pens should clean up the islanders no worries, but expect some firey contests and a few fights, a long history of hatred between the two teams. Can't wait!

My predictions

Eastern Conference Quarter Finals
1. Pittsburgh v 8. NY Islanders - Penguins in 6 games
2. Montreal v 7. Ottawa - senators in 5 games
3. Washington v 6. NY Rangers - Rangers in 7 games
4. Boston v 5. Toronto - Bruins in 5 games

Western Conference Quarter Finals
1. Chicago v 8. Minnesota - Blackhawks in 5 games
2. Anaheim v 7. Detroit - Redwings in 6 games
3. Vancouver v 6. San Jose - Canucks in 7 games
4. St. Louis v 5. Los Angeles - Kings in 7 games

I've gone and done that bracket pick thing on NHL.com. Have the Hawks and Pens going to the Cup as they have definitely been the two best teams all half season. But you just never know with the run to Lord Stanley's chalice. A hot goalie here and a MAF meltdown there (I can admit it) and things can go pear shaped pretty quickly.

Uh oh. Backstrom limping off the ice for Minnersoda. Looks like Harding will get the start.

 

[catters078]

St Louis should be up 4-0 on LA.

Absolutely dominated but Quick keeps it close.
