I'll go with the Canadiens to pull the upset here in 6.

My kid told me Montreal is the youngest team to ever make the playoffs. I love the young core of this team. Still some warts. Laine is great on the powerplay, but you want to shoot him into the sun 5 on 5. Defence has some lapses. Goaltending has been pretty good. Suzuki is incredible, Team Canada would be wise to look at him for the Olympic team.
