More Stanley Cup Playoff Predictions....

[timtwoface]

Well, the second round is over, the team I was rooting for got tossed, one Canadian team stands, and three other rather good teams are left. One is old, one is tough, one is fast. I guess I'm going for Ottawa from here out, but really, I don't care. The only team I don't want to see win is Detroit, cuz they've always won. Spread it around a little bit, now! (That said, I pick Buffalo as the winner this year.) Skip past my awesome first round predictions to see how I fared in round 2, and my adjusted predictions following these results.
