Re: Official First Round of the NHL Playoffs Thread
It is hard to see the Devils getting beat but there are a lot of teams that are better, IMO - if someone figures out how to shut down Gomez and Gionta in a series the Devils are finished, whereas Ottawa is absolutely loaded with scorers from top to bottom. Now, no one's figured out how to shut them down quite yet, but if anyone's going to do it it's Ottawa. I can't see the Rangers shutting them down unless Lundqvist gets hot - he's had quite a season so far but his second half wasn't outstanding and he may be faltering due to fatigue.
BTW, Mantooth, I doubt you see much of the Devils but Chara and Gionta have had some serious battles - they've gotten coincedental roughing minors more than once this season and they really really hate one another. It might have something to do with the body checks/elbows Chara throws.

Re: Official First Round of the NHL Playoffs Thread
LETS GO SABRES...DUHDUHDUH DUH DUH!!!
Flyers have been whooped on by Buffalo all year, they hit a rough patch, but are hot again and Miller is back to form (and Biron shut out Carolina who need to win to clinch best record in season finale) they send multiple lines and you never know where the action is coming from.... LETS GO SABRES...DUHDUHDUH DUH DUH!!!
