Being a die hard Rangers fan I do have to throw their name into the hat. Especially w/ the way Pitt is being man handled it's hard to count the Rangers out of the race. The bracket I jumped into has the Rangers trumping the Blues in the finals. Homer style, I know...
Big fan of the Blues and their style this year though. They're fast, physical and their goalies can stand there w/ the best of them right now. I have a dieing passionate dislike for the Canucks. I picked the Kings to upset them in Round 1 and so far I'm looking good! I think the Preds are a team to consider the dark horse. Yes, they finished in the top 4 but no one is really talking about them. If they can get past a solid but aging Detroit team watch out for them. Confidence w/ that team will only build as they move on.
With that all said I'd like to see my Rangers take down the Flyers in the Eastern Conference Finals. All while the Blues take down the Preds in the West. Ending up w/ the Rangers hoisting the cup in June!
