They've certainly benefited from the Nash trade far more than New York. The Rangers had to trade away some real role players, Dubinsky especially, and its shown this year. And the fact they also lost Prusty has shown as well. He's been a huge part of Montreal's success this season.

Yes, I know that story. I think that's what really prompted the league to put up nets around the boards.

7. Senators > Canadiens in 7
6. Rangers > 3. Capitals in 7
4. Bruins > 5. Leafs in 5

1. Blackhawks > 8. Wild in 5

Caps in 5


Bruins in 6


Agreed

Ducks in 7



Before last night I would've agreed, now I'm taking my 'Nucks in 7


Kings in 7

I'll see how my first round picks pan out...

Wow, Isles come back from 3-1 down & beat the Pens 4-3, no sweep

How 'bout that short handed goal, and the empty net topper in last nights Hawks game?!

Hawks: 2-0

Pittsburgh won in OT, yeah! :thumb:

Man, the Habs were embarrassing tonight. Good on the Sens for beating them up on the scoreboard and on the ice.

Interesting first few games of playoff hockey. VERY surprised at how well the Isles have played. I still don't think they have a chance, but they're exposing Fleury and the Pittsburgh D badly right now.

Absolutely loving that Blues/Kings series. That is exactly what playoff hockey is all about. Tight, hard-hitting games with amazing goaltending.

Bruins pulled a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde act in the first two games. Excellent first game, awful second game. I hope Jagr was still overcoming the flu bug because he has been absolutely awful so far.

Canucks are taking a colossal dump in San Jose <_<
