Good chance it will be the best series of the 2024 playoffs.

Going to be awesome to watch.

edit: I'll say Avs in 6. McKinnon, Makar, Rantanen.........pretty lethal if they get going.

Never thought I'd see someone say that about Pavelski in the playoffs... either he's hurt or retirement is close.

This is the cup final imo, these are the two best teams left.

Hoping for a quick series with no injuries and the winner of this series to make the cup final.

God-Mode Oettinger might make this closer than some people think.

He really turned it on in the latter half of that series.

The Avs are, IMO, clearly the better team and they have the higher-end talent...can they get past him if he's on top of his game?

I think this one is going to be fun.

Again I want the winner to be the best team that has the best chance to beat the Oilers. I really think both teams can beat the Oilers so don't really care who wins. I'll say stars in 7.

I guess it was going to happen one day. BUT he might still throw a fit for a series.

The Jets were one of my picks to win the SC coming into the playoffs, and the Avs completely outclassed them. I think the Avs have a tougher time winning this series, but ultimately win in 6.

Zero guarantee the Oilers get past the Canucks.

Yeah forsure but just in case. All I care about in these playoffs is edmonton having the best chance at losing. Even if it means we get worst draft picks from all the conditions I would trade all that for the Oilers to get eliminated.

Avalanche in 6. I think Colorado will give the same fits they did to Winnipeg. I don’t think Dallas is seeing this coming. They have a similar style to Winnipeg so I see the same fate.

Picking the Avs in 6 if they can maintain the level they set in the 1st round.

I'm going to quote you again, but I couldnt agree more. I think this will be the highlight of the playoffs and wouldnt be at all surprised if whichever one comes out of this ends up winning the Cup.

I think it goes 7 and is essentially a coin-flip. The Avs have higher-end game-breaking talent but their goaltending is dodgy.

The Stars have Oettinger and....one of my favourite Flames of the last few years...Go Tanev!

I hope Tanev wins the Cup and the re-signs here.
