At this rate, Chicago might not even make it out of round one! Nashville is really putting them to the test.

The Penguins might still make a run for it, I doubt Ottawa / Montreal / Toronto will advance that far. Still feeling the Capitals but the Leafs are giving them a run for their money.

Out west - Edmonton might beat San Jose. McDavid is beastly!

Market - I think you're a Calgary fan - hope they can get past the Ducks and into round 2!

Me too, bud! It's just so frustrating watching your team out play the opponent, yet not come out with the win.

Cup winner will...

Probably not be Pittsburgh... can't see them winning 3 years in a row.
Not Toronto
Not New Jersey
Not Columbus
Not Minnesota
Not Winnipeg
Not Anaheim
Not Dallas

Maaaybe.. Tampa Bay can take it, maybe Nashville, maybe Boston.

Want to add San Jose and Washington to that list but these teams seem to lose when it counts most so.. no.

Ovechkin to win the Rocket trophy.

Let's see what happens!

As for series predictions...

Western Conference

Nashville>Colorado
Winnipeg>Minnesota
Vegas<L.A
Anaheim>San Jose - Probably a close series

Eastern Conference

Tampa Bay>New Jersey
Boston>Toronto
Washington>Columbus - Probably a close series
Pittsburgh>Philadelphia

Hnmm.. looks like the only upset i see happening is LA beating Vegas...

I want Winnipeg to take it!! ...now we just wait and see if they can.
It would be nice if Toronto beat Boston. But I don't really see that happening. If it does, they will probably get knocked out round 2.
I'd like to see Vegas break some more records! How about a conference championship? It could be pretty entertaining if they get to the final

Winnipeg actually has a shot here, but I don't think they will get it... just a gut feel.

I don't think Toronto can get past Boston. I do think Vegas will beat LA now that we're 3 games into the series.

Also - Washington sucks.
