West I go anybody but Turdville. Vegas or the Jets I can deal with. I know, 2 more teams who would get it first before the Blues but it is what it is.

I like Toronto or Tampa in the East. Toronto would go beserk if they could pull it off but Tampa, Pitt and Boston will be formidable opposition to get through.

If it's April, it's hockey.

On a sad note, hard not to think of that tragedy up in Saskatoon. 16 kids and all that pain. Dang.
