    I'll do a homer pick, then. It's not likely but it makes me feel better.

    1st round
    Detroit vs Calgary: Calgary 4-3
    Anaheim vs Minnesota: Anaheim 4-3
    Vancouver vs Dallas: Dallas 4-3
    Nashville vs San Jose: Nashville 4-1

    Buffalo vs NY Islanders: Buffalo 4-1
    New Jersey vs Tampa Bay: New Jersey 4-2
    Atlanta vs NY Rangers: NY Rangers 4-2
    Ottawa vs Pittsburgh: Pittsburgh 4-1

    Eastern Conference Champions: Buffalo
    Western Conference Champions: Calgary
    Stanley Cup Champions: Calgary

        There are intangibles in the Anaheim pick: Giguere's first newborn child, just born the other week, is ill. He may be mentally not ready for the playoffs.

          Lets give this a shot-- MY Calgary pick is pure homerism and fandom. This Flames team has underperformed much of he year and have generally been so inconsistent that I don't know what to think any more. Can they beat Detroit . .. sure. The other element is recent Detroit "choker' label-- However that could now act as a motivator for them

          So I am picking "upsets" in 3 of the 4 western series. All I can say based on previous years is who the heck knows-- I mean last year Carolina and Edmonton ???

              Reasonable picks, and we'll accept them, Sparrowhawk.

              Now you just have to worry about beating the monkey. As do we all.

                Nice to see a couple new faces. Welcome to Apolyton's hockey community. Watch your heads when the Albertans get brawling.

                You have to pick Calgary. I think it's in the Official NHL Rules under the Fans Must be Loyal or The Franchise Will Move section.

                  Forget about the 'don't comment here' bit, btw. Silly idea.

                      well -- that was the main part of the pick. If Calgary had been at all consistent this year I would have no hesitation to pick them.

                      Detroit for me is the easiest of the top teams to pick against . While very good this year, they are old and they have a recent history of playoff crapouts

                          Dallas-Vancouver looks like it'll go to OT.

                          Go Dallas!

                            This could be a long playoff by the way it has started out.

                            Hope it isn't a busy day at work tomorrow
