Pens in 6.
Both WASH & NYR are better than either NYI or DET and Pens handled them both without much adversity. It could be a pretty high scoring series but outside of the Johnson-Kucherov-Killorn line the Bolts dont scare anyone. The Pens just beat the Presidents trophy winner an prohibitive favorite with their top 2 players combining for 4 points total in 6 games. If Crosby and Malkin break out early this series could be over quickly.
Pens have not lost back to back in 45 games now, the Bolts wont beat them in 4 out of 7.

Is Stamkos expected back anytime soon?

Ugh, despise the Bolts and really dislike the Penguins. Hope they beat the crap out of each other so the winner goes into the SCF bruised and broken.

The Lightning are just as good as the Capitals, so
Penguins in 5 or 6.

Matt Murray looks up to the challenge of going head to head with Bishop and coming out on top. The kid has been mighty impressive in these playoffs. Better than Torkarskis run for the Habs a couple of years ago.

I think this has the potential to be a fun fast freewheeling series. Pulling for Pitt again.

I really don't mind either of these teams, to be honest. Should be a good series, both teams have lots of offensive weapons and younger, untested players. I think I'm kind of hoping for Pittsburgh, and Tampa sans-Stamkos going all the way would be a good story too.

Think Tampa is starting to play a lot like they were in last year's playoffs when they got rolling good... contributions from lots of people up front, Hedman really elevating his game, Bishop outstanding in net.
I feel like this will be an entertaining series, with fun and fast hockey. I also think Tampa wins it- lots of folks already writing them off in 5 or 6 games, maybe folks that haven't watched the Lightning much this year? This is a good, deep team that can will it all. They learned a lot last season and it's just about the same roster.
Lightning in 7.

If it makes Leafs management look more incompetent, the leafs are paying Phil Kessel some money to help Pittsburgh reach the FInals

I want Tampa to win but I'm taking the Pens in 6. So far this round has gone entirely my way so I'm hoping that continues with St. Louis and San Jose winning their series. Nothing like games 7 in the Stanley Cup playoffs.

I really don't care who wins this series, but I'll probably cheer for Tampa. Think it'll go to 7.
