first off wow 5 canadian playoff teams? thats pretty impressive!
rangers definitely luck out with this format. they get the cupcake in pitt (when would you say that). then they are lucky because the caps and isles both play one another and those 2 teams are the only teams i think that can give them a run for their money. if they had to face isles in round 1 then caps in round 2 then face tampa in round 3. i wouldn't like their chances now? i think they easily SHOULD come out of the east.
rangers in 5 over pitt
rangers in 7 over caps
rangers in 6 over habs or bolts.
in the west st.louis chicago even nashville are legit threats to win the cup. problem is 2 of the 3 will be gone by the 3rd round. i get the division aspect of playoffs but you can definitely see a situation where one team has a cake walk to the conference finals without reseeding. the ducks definitely have the "easiest" winnipeg calgary and vancouver. easier said then done of course but still a lot easier then facing the hawks/blues or preds imo.
rangers ducks final. dont know who wins....but if the rangers dont get it done this year i dont think they get back here next year. they have to win it this year imo
