    Well....with the crapshoot that is the Western Conference, I have to go with Washington. I'm hoping they at least make it to the conference finals, but they won't. Just let me know where to send my box...

    @nhindian you're up.

    Oh man... I thought for sure you were taking the Hawks...

    My brain is saying don't go for the team I root for... But hell. Taking the Pens.

    @pauljrinaldijr is up.

    Jesus being the 4th pick means I 'should' be able to be on the verge of winning a box. If my team loses first round I'll triple up on the minimum requirements to my recipient.

    Just too much parity in the Western Conference. Could see them winning it all or losing in the first round. Plus, now the Eastern Conference is worth watching!

    Shit. Didn't realize this was happening. I have to go with the hometown defending champs...Chicago Blackhawks. Didn't think they'd still be available with @swenny916 getting to pick before me. @PA-Michigander it's your turn. Hoping for the repeat...

    Damnit, was hoping they would slip one more spot. I'm torn between four teams, I hate to be 'that guy' but might need to see the draw before making my pick.

    No worries, I was possibly going to be that guy right after you.

    Sorry for holding everyone up. After a ton of deliberation I'll take the Kings.

    @clake is on the clock.

    Maybe I just really want to send a box...

    I think the Western Conference Finals teams have already been taken so I'll double down on my annual NHL April disappointment.

    St. Louis Blues

    Wow, the other team I debated picking is still alive. As a Red Wings fan I was hoping for a spot more like 9-10 to select them.

    Not liking the 1st rd matchup and certainly don't like the playoff seeding.

    Yep, someone looked at the wrong list as did I for a moment there!

    @AndrewSmith you're on the clock as they say!

    I hear you, but they came through on that last match up after being down. Still not the playoffs though. Time will tell.
