    Pretty self explanatory

    Western Conference (sorry fellas I'm out West)

    Rd 1
    #1 Vegas Golden Knights vs Winnipeg Jets
    #2 Colorado Avalanche vs Seattle Kraken
    #3 Edmonton Oilers vs LA Kings
    #4 Dallas Stars vs Minnesota Wild

    Eastern Conference
    #1 Boston Bruins vs Florida Panthers
    #2 Carolina Hurricanes vs NY Islanders
    #3 NJ Devils vs NY Rangers
    #4 Toronto Maple Leafs vs Tampa Bay Lightning

    First off I'm not a fan of the format would much prefer a 1-8. The idea that you want to create division rivalries is lost when for the 2nd year in a row you've got cross division matchups in the West.

    I've got Vegas (I'll for sure be at games 1 and 2 and possibility I'll be in Winnipeg for 3 and 4)
    Edmonton
    Colorado
    Dallas

    Boston
    Islanders
    Devils
    Tampa

    I have the same picks. I’m going to go with Edmonton to win it all but if a team is going to beat them it could be the Kings.

    There are 3 things guaranteed in life. Death, taxes, and the Maple Leafs playing like turds in the playoffs.

    Dangle is the best...

    All the road teams won game 1 in the West which hasn't happened in like 30 years

    Vegas absolutely demolished by Winnipeg and they got booed as well. Hellebuyck didn't even need to steal the game. The Pierre-Luc Dubois and Kyle Connor line were flying all night and Vegas who are a good transition team stifled after the first 10 minutes. Even crazier stat but Morgan Barron took a skate under the visor, had to get 75 stitches and returned with a cage on his face played 10:44 and still had more shots on goal than Mark Stone and Jack Eichel combined

    Panthers vs Bruins will be one of the more exciting games to watch Friday Night. It will be a bloodbath. These teams do not like each other, chatter in the media, now the hit on the ice possibly resulting in a suspension, amojng other things. Tune in to the bloodbath @Sunrise Florida

    High stick on Miller should be in there. The blood dripping off his face while he rushed off the ice could have been used to great effect :cool:

    Every series is tied 1-1 with the exception or Carolina/Isles and Rangers/Devils

    I hope the Lightning can come back from 3-1 down. If they do, then the Steve Dangle meltdown will be epic.
