    There could be some tense viewers in @SP23 and @clake with both of their picks facing each other in game 7s!

    I was close to picking Seattle for my 2nd pick so I’d have at least 1 team advanced. Although Florida is currently leading late in the 1st, I’m thinking I’m going to regret going against my initial thinking.

    Boston has scored 2 straight (both on the PP) to tie it up early in the 3rd. It's a new game here.

    For me, there is no sport better than playoff hockey. Game 7...OT...find a more exciting scenario in sports.

    Not exactly the split @SP23 and I would have preferred, I’m sure.

    Well, with the Devils taking out the hapless Rangers tonight here is where we stand after the 1st round:

    sp23 - Kraken
    2_beardz - Oilers
    clake - Panthers
    sinzanasti - Hurricanes
    gopens44 -
    jpatag66 -
    Greyvtrayn - Golden Knights, Stars
    johnyb - Leafs, Devils

    Better luck next year to those who are eliminated. Good luck to those who are still battling it out. One thing is for sure...this thing is WIDE OPEN this year.

    We are half-way through the Stanley Cup Playoffs and I think it's safe to say few, if anyone would have had these 4 teams in the conference finals. Here is where we stand with the remaining teams:

    sp23 -
    2_beardz -
    clake - Panthers
    sinzanasti - Hurricanes
    gopens44 -
    jpatag66 -
    Greyvtrayn - Golden Knights, Stars

    Blues fans everywhere cursing Army for not landing Tkachuk last offseason. Would it have changed the current course of the franchise? Who knows but there will always be the what if.

    Thanks man! I really enjoyed the playoffs this year despite my Rangers bowing out in the first round.
    Thank you all for letting me step in this year. As a huge hockey fan I've been wanting to take part in this for a few years now but would always lose track of it right before the playoffs started.
    Good job @clake! The injury to Tkachuk can't be overstated, losing him really put the Panthers in a disadvantage. Might have been a much different finals if he were healthy.
