I went with Vancouver again, just to be consistent, but I agree that Boston is looking really strong.

I think that Tampa might pull this one off.  Roloson is in the zone and he is tough to beat like that.  Oh and go Sharks

I wouldn't go with Vancouver. They came in weak to the playoffs with back to back loss against Edmonton.
Most of the games they have won, they have barely scraped by. I could see them beating Detroit though... maybe...
But in the end, lets be realistic. The NHL during playoffs is almost as bad as the WWE. Just not as obvious.
The NHL is a business, driven by the states, who need their teams to win to make money.
The closest Canada will see the cup is at game 7. Where it will be called again by the officials. Let's not forget how bad it was when Calgary had its run a few years back.

I'd say Boston or Tampa, but more towards Boston. They have been more consistant over the season and if Tampa hits a cold streak (which they like to do) they will be done for.

X2....St. Louis is playing like a man on a mission and they actually have a pretty balanced team.  I'd kinda like to see that wiley old Roloson win too. 

Just don't understand the long delay between 2nd and 3rd rounds, especially in the East....this in supposed to be an endurance haul

The next round can't start until all of the previous match-ups are done.  Then there are venue schedule conflicts to deal with
