St. Louis vs Minnesota Minnesota in 7
Nashville vs Chicago Chicago in 7


Eastern Conference

Montreal vs Ottawa Montreal in 5

my predictions:

First Round
Anaheim over Winnipeg in 6
Vancouver over Calgary in 7
Minnesota over St Louis in 6 (although I think this could go either way)
Chicago over Nashville in 5
Montreal over Ottawa in 7 (another close one that could go either way)
Tampa Bay over Detroit in 5
New York Rangers over Pittsburgh in 6
Washington over New York Islanders in 7

Second Round
Vancouver over Anaheim in 7 (most people would pick Anaheim, and thats probably what will happen, but im still picking the 'Nucks)
Minnesota over Chicago in 6 (again.probably not the popular pick)
Tampa Bay over Montreal in 6
New York Rangers over Washington in 6

Third Round
Vancouver over Minnesota in 7 (I know that if the Nucks make it this far there is no way they could win, but I am still picking them anyways)
Tampa Bay over New York Rangers in 6

Final
Vancouver over Tampa Bay in 7
(I think Tampa Bay is going to win the cup this year, probably against St Louis or Chicago, but i want to be the only one to pick Vancouver just in case a miracle happens)

I think we were both probably making our posts at the same time so couldn't have seen the other one - I'll ask Janice to merge the two threads

That makes sense.

Though the Rangers are my #3 Team...I went for my #2 team the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Columbus Blue Jackets are my main team since they are in Ohio's Capital City...but since they suck...I went for Pittsburgh!
