A Canucks/Flames series would be beyond epic and I think we'd match up well against them. That series would remind me of the 2009 Flames vs Hawks series. Calgary was the veteran squad back then (VAN) and the Hawks were a young team in the playoffs for the first time in forever (CGY). Hawk went on a deep run that year. Not saying were destined for the WCF, but I could see us pulling that series out as a win.

While the Sharks are a team on the down-swing and they choked hard last year, other then that they usually come out of round 1 victorious. Since 2004 they have only lost in round one 3/10 times.
