Hawks in 5.

Wild are a horrible boring team and I hope they are eliminated ASAP.

[OffsideSpecialist]

Hawks in 4. With the way the Wild backed into 8th place, I don't see them putting up much of a fight.

[Hockey_Ninja]

Hawks in 4. Lose Wild lose.

[JurassicTunga12]

Hawks in 5 games.

Mismatch.

So Canucks win 2 presidents trophys and were rewarded with matchups against Chicago and LA in round one. Now the Hawks win a Presidents trophy and get the Wild.....hawks in 4

It's a conspiracy.

[Dogbert]

The last time Chicago won the Presidents' Trophy, they were upset in the first round by Minnesota.

Food for thought.

Maybe the Wild win a game but the Wild IMO are the worst team to make the playoffs this year and shouldn't be much of an obstacle for the Hawks.

[zamler]

I'm sure the Mild will say they are happy to be the underdog rabble rabble, but they're gonna get destroyed.

[jayswin]

Nice little warm-up series for the Hawks. Wouldn't be surprised if it's a sweep, but like most mismatches the underdog will likely squeek out at least one win.

[PeteLFan]

Hawks will eat them up.

[djsFlames]

There Will Be Rape.

[Anduril]

Hawks in 6. Wild put up a bit of a fight but not much in the end.

[Canada 02]

Hawks in 3
