                                totally forgot about that game and hit...one of the best hits ever.  Although, stevens taking out lindros and kariya were incredible hits too.

                                You heard it here first: Rangers over the Caps in 7 (and yes, I am biased) ... just wish Callahan wasn't injured, but I guess Drury will have to step up bigtime, but the chances of this is 100% contingent on Lundqvist

                                Rangers and Sabres could possibly upset the top 2 seeds.

King Henrick needs to stand on his head for this one. Come playoff time i like to pick series based on goalies more than anything. My big upset pick is chicago over vancouver, i think it'll be closer than it is on paper

Or the fact they played into MTL's system and got beat by a good goalie.

They're overrated! I'm sick and tried of hearing every hockey expert out there making them out to be the best thing since hot sliced bread. They're known for choking and they'll probably choke this series away too! Oh and I thought Tim Thomas was the best goalie in the East, maybe the league.......pfffttt!

During the regular season he was the best. He recorded the greatest save % by any goalie in history.
The problem they have is that they're not that great with Martin's system.
