Orr....

Yeah, Colton's not bad.

Boston over Montreal (Hard to pick against a team that dominated all year, but I think it'll be a close series)
New York over Washington (The Caps are overrated and Jose Theodore is mediocre)
Carolina over New Jersey (Ward is playing WAY better than Broduer)
Pittsburgh over Philadelphia (Marty Biron sucks and the Pens are a whole new team under Bylsma)

Anaheim over San Jose (Upset special)
Detroit (Fags) over Columbus (Would be amazing if Columbus beat them though)
Calgary over Chicago (Kipper > inexperienced young team)
Vancouver over St. Louis (I'd love to see the Blues make a good run, but I dunno, just doesn't seem likely)

Well, I had 6 out of 8 right. Upset special FTW. Next round starts Thursday...

Carolina over Boston (Boston is just like San Jose, very good, but not as great as most people seem to think)
Pittsburgh over Washington (Pens high powered, attacking offense vs. a rookie goalie and Sid dominates head to head against the Caps and overrated Ovechkin)

Detroit over Anaheim (The Ducks are good, but unfortunately lame-o Detroit will probably win in 4 or 5 games)
Vancouver over Chicago (I still think Chicago is too young, although Khabibulin is epic)
