I honestly don't see Vancouver going all the way... the Sedin Bros have been bashed around all season, Daniel's down with a concussion for the foreseeable future, and Luongo's had a few spots where he's not been in tip top form... They're actually pretty vulnerable these first couple games of the series with Daniel Sedin having to ride the bench and a young inexperienced goalie to take over if Luongo struggles...

If the Canucks get over these first couple or three games even or ahaed, they should be in good shape... but you can't ever count out St. Louis, Detroit, and Chicago, they've all been performing great on the ice, in the last month especially.

I do agree that's it's the Rangers Conference Title to lose... I see the Finals being the Rangers and Detroit... I think the Wings are just too potent offensively and play very very physical... I think they'll just wear out the Canucks in the Western Con. Finals. But I think the Rangers are due... They've been ridiculous all season.

Glad to see you are picking the wings but I just don't see them getting past the second rd! Holland and Babcock need to get rid of some old legs and add some scoring!

Last year, Rangers winning those final couple of games to get them the 8th seed, really catapulted them for this season. As long as a team from Canada doesn't win it. **** Canada!

Go Flyers !!! I want my Flyers to win it all but i believe it will be the Rangers vs Predators in the finals .... Nashville plays excellent defense and Rinne is a beast in the net.

after the sabres got eliminated from the playoffs I don't care. Living a good chunk of my life on the US/Canada border I usually root for all the American teams because it annoys Canuckians when we win the Cup
