He found a gear that no one else found with that Hawks sweep...

Edit: My bad, BBB also predicts a Hawks sweep.

He's pretty in line with me on the West save your Flames and the fact I think every series except the Hawks-Preds are going 7 games.

Which means the Rangers are doomed

Maybe. They still need Rick Nash to show up in the playoffs for once.

Yep. He played hard last year but couldn't hit the net. Someone is also going to have to win a damn face off. I have no idea how they have the record they have without a power play or the ability to win a face off. That's why I didn't want to see Boston. Bergeron wins every face off against the Rangers and the Rags have no answers for him.

Hey, Boston won the Cup without an even remotely functioning PP. Ya never know.

Very true but they did win face offs and could control the puck. Hopefully my boys win enough to do what they've done all year.

I hope he's the scapegoat again. Will make it easier to trade for him.

Well, the Rangers do need a first round pick.

Or they'll just trade a few more down the line and try and go a decade without drafting in the first round. DRAFT SHMAFT!

No it's not, go back Judge Fudge boldly picked the pens....
