<p>Best two months of the year, right here. Unfortunately, my poor Leafs didn't make it, but feel free to discuss any the matchups below!</p>
<p>Predictions for East</p>
<h1>1 New York Rangers vs #8 Ottawa Senators - Rangers in 6</h1>
<h1>2 Boston Bruins vs #7 Washington Capitals - Bruins in 5</h1>
<h1>3 Florida Panthers vs #6 New Jersey Devils - Panthers in 7</h1>
<h1>4 Pittsburgh Penguins vs #5 Philadelphia Flyers - Flyers in 7</h1>
<p>Predictions for West</p>
<h1>1 Vancouver Canucks vs #8 Los Angeles Kings - Canucks in 6</h1>
<h1>2 St. Louis Blues vs #7 San Jose Sharks - Blues in 6</h1>
<h1>3 Phoenix Coyotes vs #6 Chicago Blackhawks - Coyotes in 7</h1>
<h1>4 Nashville Predators vs #5 Detroit Red Wings - Predators in 7</h1>
<p>Leafs fan in Anchorage? Kinda odd, seems like you’d be a St. Louis Blues fan considering the Alaska Aces are their farm team and there are no NHL teams remotely close to Alaska (except for the Canucks but that is a long distance still).</p>
<p>Also you really think the Panthers are going to beat the Devils? I’m a Rangers fan so I don’t like the Devils but I think they deserve more credit than that.</p>
<p>Rangers over Senators in 5.
Bruins over Capitals in 7 (I think this will actually be interesting).
Devils over Panthers in 6.
Penguins over Flyers in 7.</p>
<p>Canucks in 4 (I have little faith in the offensively struggling Kings).
St. Louis Blues in 5.
Blackhawks in 7 games over Coyotes.
Nashville and Detroit always have a great matchup, I won’t make a call.</p>
