i really believe the sharks need a quick series...i always feel like when the sharks get behind the game and series they can't handle the come back and the past playoffs meltdown creeps in to their minds....with that being said...this is the year for the SAN JOSE SHARKSSSSSS!!!!

I have no idea what to expect with the Pens, they have far exceeded my expectations this season with no kid or Geno. MAF will have to continue to play great to have a shot against TB but let's see if they can grind out a series win. Home ice should help

We have Justin Williams possible coming back Thursday.  

I think Kings finished 5th in defense this season, but if they can't score against a powerhouse like SJ, it will be over before it starts. 

GO KINGS GO!

Hopefully the Sharks don't do their yearly playoff choke again.

[proshares]

That time of year when all the Warriors fans switch their colors to the teal and white

.

My picks that are sure to all be wrong:

NYR over WSH in 6 or 7.  I hate the Rangers with every fiber of my being.  That said, I don't see them losing this series.  Henrik will carry them and you all know how Drury goes in the playoffs and he looks close to 100%.  I think WSH got a raw deal here.

Sabres over PHI in 6.  I don't think Pronger comes back fully healthy and Philly isn't sneaking up on anyone this year.

Bruins over MTL in 6.  I think it's going to be a high scoring series.  Pretty sure we'll see Rask at least start one game.

Pitt over TB in 5 or 6.  The PK and MAC will kill TB.  St. Louis is the only consistent threat for me, I see Vinny choke all the time when the light shines on him and I see Stamkos disappear for LONG periods of time.  Blysma's turned this team into a version of the Devils.

CHI over Canucks in 7.  Could go either way.  Need to see it from Luongo against Chicago to believe it *shrugs*

SJ over LA in 5.  Sucks that Kopitar is out.  Kings can't score and Niemi has been on fire since January.

Phoenix over DET in 7.  They took em to 7 w/o Doan, I think they get over the hump w/their captain this year.  Jovocop back as well.  Losing Zetterberg hurts.

NSH over ANH in 7.  Putting my money on Weber and Suter shutting down the Ducks top line and Rinne doing the rest.
