I'll take Kings in 7 because it's going to be close, tight checking hockey and probably not pretty.

WCSF: (2) St. Louis Blues vs (8) The Los Angeles Kings of Canada

[OffsideSpecialist]

I'm actually quite looking forward to this series. These are two teams I have become pretty fond of over the course of the season. St. Louis for being a group of hard workers; they really remind me quite a bit of the 04 Flames. I am also a fan of guys like Kopitar with LA and of course Darryl Sutter. I think it'll be a close series all the way, and I think it will go the distance will Los Angeles taking it.

Kings in 6.

Then in 6 against Phoenix.

Darryl Sutter still the only coach to have defeated 3 division champions, but this will be his second occasion.

[Bagor]

Sutter on team 1040 right now

[JurassicTunga12]

I think the Blues take this one but hope to see Sutter go farther!

[ClubFlames]

It'll be a good low scoring series as both teams are well coached.

Kings in 7

[SuperMatt18]

Going to be a low scoring, physical, tough series. Traditional Playoff hockey.

I am looking forward to it.

Blues look fantastic. As much as LA has reminded me of the 04 Flames, St. Louis matches them in intensity, but are quicker. St. Louis in 6.

[Hemi-Cuda]

all i can say is this:

I'm just so happy that this thread exists

[Roof-Daddy]

I know LA, St. Louis and Nashville all have good teams, but who would have thought Detroit, Vancouver and San Jose would all get crushed out of the first round in 5 measely games?

Awesome.

[Sylvanfan]

I wouldn't be surprised to see either team win this series in 7 games despite only scoring 10 goals.

[Hockey_Ninja]

Should be interesting to see who comes out on top. My gut says the Blues win but my heart says the Kings win. Good series coming up here.

[HOOT]

Quick shutout the Blues twice in their 3 wins. I think this will be a very low scoring game and will look at lot like per lockout. Can't wait!

[Baaarrden]

I would like to see LA win, and I honestly wouldn't be that surprised if they did win, but I'm going to guess that St. Louis will take it in 6

[Vedder]

I think this will be a great series. Two well coached teams that leave it all on the ice. I think a few OT games and Blues in 7, but I won't be disappointed if the Kings advance.

My head says it'll be this, but I just have this feeling the Kings will be playing the Predators in the Western Conference Finals.

[Cheerio]

Blues in 6, Go Blues Go! Thanks Darryl and the Kings!

[3 Justin 3]

I want the Kings to win, but I think the Blues take it in 6 and I'm fine with that.
