Hockey isn't my favorite sport, but their playoffs are unreal. Playoff OT hockey = GOAT

Agreed. There is no greater playoffs in professional sport than the NHL. Bar none.

I like the tradition of The Stanley Cup itself, I think that trophy is simply inspirational.

Stanley Cup odds from an online sports book.

Pittsburgh Penguins — 4/1
New York Rangers — 11/2
Vancouver Canucks — 11/2
St. Louis Blues — 15/2
Boston Bruins — 8/1
Detroit Red Wings — 12/1
Nashville Predators — 14/1
Philadelphia Flyers — 14/1
Chicago Blackhawks — 16/1
San Jose Sharks — 18/1
Los Angeles Kings — 20/1
New Jersey Devils — 25/1
Washington Capitals — 30/1
Florida Panthers — 35/1
Ottawa Senators — 40/1
Phoenix Coyotes — 40/1

Interesting in that all I hear about the Pens-Flyers matchup is so even and yet the odds don't nearly suggest that.

I don't get why they don't show 4 games tonight.

What are everyone's predictions for the first round? Mine are:
NYR, BOS, NJ, and Pitt in the East
VAN, SJ, CHI, and NSH in the West

I would actually switch the games. I think Ottawa will gives NYR a hard time - Their front line IMO is better and if Anderson can get hot it'll be a closer series. I also think Pitt will roll over Philly. The games may be close but think Pitt in 5 maybe 6.

Could see Pittsburgh in 6. I think it'll be a pretty physical series, going 7 will really depend on Bryzgalov stepping up. He was crap early this year but in February and March has given up <2 goals a game with a .939 save percentage. If he can carry his recent performance into the playoffs they could be pesky for Pittsburgh.
