I predict (if you remember I did pretty well last year on that):
Washington vs. Montreal: No contest, Washington in 5 (maybe 6). Interesting to see two teams with inconsistent goaltending/defense. (TIED 3-3)
New Jersey vs. Philly: I would have to say Philly in 5 (maybe 6). NJ magic isn't special any more and Marty's been up and down all year. (PHILLY IN 5)
Buffalo vs. Boston: Boston always had high hopes but injuries and lack of production from the guys that matter, they're going down. Miller > Boston. Buffalo in 6-7. (BOS IN 6)
Pittsburgh vs. Ottawa: Reluctantly Pitts in 6. (PITTS in 6)
San Jose vs. Colorado: Definitely a great series. I want to see Colorado go far in the playoffs but they seem to lack experience. Probably San Jose in 6-7. (SJ IN 6)
Chicago vs. Nashville: I like the Hawks and they will go deep. I want to say Chicago in 6 if they can stay healthy. (CHI IN 6)
Vancouver vs. LA: Vancouver depends on one line and one goaltender, has worked out well for them thus far. Don't think LA has the experience. I would say Vancouver in 5-6. (VAN IN 6)
Phoenix vs. Detroit: Detroit has been pretty inconsistent. I'm going to have to go with Phoenix in 7. (DET IN 7)

Phoenix is promising.
Lotta young talent and a great goalie.
Shocked that Boston coulda pulled it off.
Glad Savard is back.

all they talked about around here on WEEI(sports radio) is how buffalo is Boston's best match-up and how they have a chance to beat them. any other team they probably would have been done in 6. now all they talk about is being happy that they won and they got the 2nd draft pick this year cause they probably aren't going any further. :chuckles:
