Congrats, E.J.!

Your GM was being politically correct at the lottery, but I gotta think Seth Jones is going to be in an Avs uniform next fall.

Yea, I would be surprised if the didn't take Jones.

Recently read an article that taking a D man 1 has rarely worked out(looked like the right pick) and they tend to be a difficult read as to how they'll turn out(vs other top D in their respective draft), vs F's....

Understood, but Jones seems like a special player.

Looks like the Hawks did themselves a favor for the future when they picked up LeBlanc, the Hobey Baker Awrard winner.

My version not accounting for any suspect officiating which is always a possibility

West –
CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS vs. MINNESOTA WILD - 'Hawks
ANAHEIM DUCKS vs. DETROIT RED WINGS - Ducks
VANCOUVER CANUCKS vs. SAN JOSE SHARKS - Sharks
ST. LOUIS BLUES vs. LOS ANGELES KINGS - Kings
East –
PITTSBURGH PENGUINS vs. NEW YORK ISLANDERS - Pens
MONTREAL CANADIENS vs. OTTAWA SENATORS - Habs
WASHINGTON CAPITALS vs. NEW YORK RANGERS - Caps
BOSTON BRUINS vs. TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS - Bruins

Screw you EJ!

I think Sharks Canucks could go either way I have to go with Nemo and my boys.
While the Blues Elliot is hot, but LA went 3-0 against the Blues this year and Quick is playing well enough that with LAs skill and grit I cant pick the Blues.

You want to bet on the Wings Ducks series?

Not confident in the Wings to put even 1 cigar on them...but I still like them over the Ducks!

Games tonight have all been very good and showing all teams have a chance. I thought the pipe shot was going in for the wild. Also thought they got hosed on toews hooking call. Still awesome OT.

I'm going to have to be institutionalized after all the one goal losses to the damn Hawks this year.

I have 5 in common with you, E.J., including a couple of the same "upsets". I will post mine after the games start, I am in a pool on another board and don't want to reveal my picks until that's closed.
