Sharks-Blues could be the big upset. Elliott is day-to-day, I am not sold on Halak, and the Sharks have been to the dance before.
I pick the Canucks to beat Quick and LA, but would love to be wrong.

I can see why a lot would pick the Yotes Tom. The goalie is red red hot. They have balanced scoring. As I said earlier they have the goalie advantage. If he steals a game or two then thats likely the series. I want the Hawks though so I cant pick against them.
As for Wings Preds they are really deep with recent moves and they have the goalie advantage. I think Peca steals a couple games and the series.
The Sharks Blues is tough if they can split the first two the blues youth and inexperience I think creeps in and sticks get gripped. As a whole though I just dont see the Sharks getting it done. While I know they stepped up at the end of the season when they had two, I just have seen them go ice cold to often this year.
Geoff I really think you are hoping it doesnt get nasty, but I am hoping it does
and can see it. You have to look at both teams recent history. I cant see it not happening looking at last years playoffs and this season.
