            Detroit vs Nashville
            Detroit in 6

            San Jose vs Calgary
            SJ in 5

            Minnesota vs Colorado
            Colorado in 6

            Anaheim vs Dallas
            Dallas in 7 (by the way, this will be the most interesting 1st round matchup)

            Montreal vs Boston
            Duh. Montreal. I'll go for 4 games. Montreal beat Boston 8 times this season, and multiseason they've won 11 or 12 times in a row. Boston won 1 point off Montreal this season.

            Pittsburgh vs Ottawa
            Pittsburgh in 6

            Washington vs Philadelphia
            Philadelphia in 7. Huet will choke.

            New Jersey vs NY Rangers
            NJ in 6

            Eastern Conf.
            Montreal (homer pick)

            Western Conf.
            The Sharks

            Stanley Cup
            The Sharks.

              If Philly beats Washington I'm going to be buying Flyers tickets and driving the 90 minutes to Philly every night Montreal plays them.

                          BTW, for those who haven't been paying attention, San Jose has won 38 of the last 40 points of the regular season...

                          They're the hottest team right now, even more so than Detroit.

                          The West is insane this year.

                            We only picked 5/8 the same. I took Dallas, NJ and Philly. You took Anaheim, NYR and the Caps

                            We did pick the same Conf. and Cup winners though...

                            And two of the 3 we disagreed on I think will be the two best series.

                              Well, the SJ/Cgy series may turn out better than we think.

                              Calgary is 3-1 vs SJ this year and has never lost a post-season series with them...and it is Sutter's old team if that means anything.
