1) Montreal vs. Flyers: Montreal in 6. Montreal is my second favourite team after Edmonton (thanks to the book "The Hockey Sweater" which is also the reason I hate the Maple Leafs!). They could go all the way, and I for one would support that 100%!
2) Penguins vs. Rangers: Penguins in 7. I think they will get er done, but it will be a slogging!
West
1) Red Wings vs. Avalanche: Avalanche in 6. Osgood will be Osbad with Smyth in the way! And then there is the Foresberg factor. This is a tough one. I dislike both of these teams. But I dislike the Red Wings more. When I was young I played street hockey all the time against these Russians and they all loved Detroit (because at the time Detroit had tons of Russians!) so I always associated my school yard rivals with the Detroit Red Wings! The rest is history.
2) Sharks vs. Stars: Sharks in 7. I love the Sharks, I hate the Stars. Like you said, it could go either way, so in that case, I chose the team I like more.
