Road to the cup: ROUND 2

Im sorry but that picture is just absolutely awesome!


SECOND ROUND PREDICTIONS
East
Montreal Def Flyers 6 games
Penguins Def Rangers 6 games (STRETCH)

West
Wings Def Avalanche 7 games
Sharks Def Stars 5 games

East (Round 2 bold predictions)
Thats right...I picked the penguins over the rangers. Crosby and Malkin are just awesome so far this post season and well, so has Henrik. I'll take the edge for the Penguins who are younger and quicker, with a less goalie (who did well the first round, against a high powered offense) and say that offense this match-up is the way to win.
West (round 2 bold predictions)
the only thing I got here that seems bold is the wings taking the avalanche in 7. I think the wings will win, but when you look at it, Jose T. is playing well this post season and there is so much playoff experience on the avalanche...but look across the ice Osgood and Hasek...and look at all the rest of their team, they have the experience too. Look for it to go to 7 and in the 7th game i predict a 5-1 win for the wings.

East (Round 1 justification)
In all honesty, who thought that caps were going to lose, they were the hottest team in the league, getting in, slating the third spot, that series came down to one goal. I thought that one man, A.O. was going to get it. Flyers edged them out, it was a fun series to watch.
West (Round 1 justification)
Im sorry, but I cant ever count out the last years champs in the first round...in retrospect I would have picked them even if they didnt win last year, I figured the ducks could out duel the stars.
