The Stanley Cup Playoffs. Heroes. Villains. 4th Liners making headlines. Sudden-death OT. "Matteau! Matteau! Matteau!" Red Wings vs. Avalanche. Keith Primeau's morning glory versus Pittsburgh. Claude Lemieux. Habs over B's. Jean-Sebastian Giguere. Ken Dryden. Patrick Roy. Cam Ward. Upsets. Game 7's.
Excuse me if I'm giddy.
The long journey to hockey immortality begins tonight, as the Caps host the Rangers, the Battle of PA re-ignites, the Canes visit Newark, and the Blues try to prevent the clock from striking midnight in Vancouver.
To recap, here are my picks:
Bruins over the Habs in 5.
Rangers upsetting the Caps in 7.
Canes beating Marty and the boys in 6.
Flyers over Sid's Pens in 7.
Sharks in 6 versus the Ducks.
Detroit in 5 over the Jackets.
'Nucks in 7 against St. Louis.
Hawks up-ending Keenen's Flames in 6.
At the end of the day, I like whoever comes out of the Pittsburgh/Philadelphia series to come out of the east. So give me the Flyers (grrr) advancing there.
Out west, I still got to go with the Wings, despite their goaltending problems.
The Wings in six over Mike Richards' squad in the final.
