Super yawn. If I'm being honest I have pretty much no interest in the remaining teams and doubt I'll be watching any more hockey this season. I don't like any of them and I don't hate any of them.

It'll be a goaltending dual.

Winnipeg plays a strong team game, and play heavier than the Habs. I think the Jets have the edge, but if Price continues his form, then it's the Habs for sure.

Yeah what’s “destroy” mean? I want in on that part particularly. Maybe they lose in 6 or 7, but this would be a great series.

Perfect. If Colorado makes the final against TB I will gladly avatar bet you on the outcome.

This feels like the most Canadian series ever. I’ll be cheering for the Jets from here on out. Maybe playing the Habs will light a fire under Dubois.

Destroy means they will dominate the majority of play every game. The Avs might win a game or two but TB will win that series. T99 says he will take that bet but he won't put his avatar where his mouth is, guaranteed.

Tbay has the slight edge with goaltending for sure but man would that come right down to the wire, at least you would think it would. Tbay would be my pick too based on the ‘been there done that and recently’ angle and their goalie.

I think I might be cheering for a Habs-Bruins Final, since it's otherwise impossible when we return the regular divisions.

Plus those guys have a pretty ancient rivalry. It would be fun watching the Bruins clobber them while Price puts up a goaltending performance of a lifetime.

They also have a more experienced D with perhaps the best D man in the game as well as ridiculous high end depth at forward. Don't get me wrong, I think what they did is wrong with the whole Kucherov thing but there is no weakness at all on TB. Also, I would not say the goaltending is a slight edge, it is a significant one.

While I agree that the remaining 8 teams has me less interested, I defiantly hate Vegas and cannot for the life of me ever forgive TB.

I was meaning slight edge more ‘overall’ as I think the mobility and offence of Colorado’s D is more valuable than Tbay’s and the forward depth is pretty comparable so overall I’d give the slight edge to Tbay based on Their goalie and experience. On paper and on the ice both these teams are absolutely terrifying though.

Colorado looks really good, but Dallas beat them last year.

I mean, other than the Flames and probably the Sens in the second round, this is probably everyone's ideal outcome for the 1st round, so I'm good with it. I think Jets take it in 5. Unlike the Leafs, Jets are usually pretty good at not choking.

I know this playoffs is proving to not make any assumptions but I think it’s pretty clear whoever wins this series will likely get run over by Colorado/Vegas.

I think this is Colorado’s year.
