Unless it's Sweden
Who in their right mind seriously thought the Flyers would upset the Capitals? That game last night was domination in more ways than the scoreboard. Wilson got Simmonds to chimp out; Flyers had only 8 shots in the second and third periods combined; Ovi took out Couturier for the rest of the series with a typical hit; Caps forwards routinely stripped the puck from Ghost, Giroux, and Voracek; the PKs were effortless; the list goes on. Glad I got to watch that shutout in person.
Again, literally who thought that would happen? The Islels upsetting the Panthers is far more likely.
Where did all the wild fans go?
>>66840852
flyers played at about the same level as the caps over the last 25 games of the season. without couturier they're a swept team though.

The islanders beating the panthers isn't really an upset though. The panthers have so many kids on their team with absolutely no playoff experience. The panthers have a bright future but expecting them to go deep this year is daft. The islanders have the easiest road to a ECF. Beat the panthers and then more than likely beat either Detroit/Tampa Bay. My guess is Detroit wins that series.

Idk I just have a feeling Detroit will make a push and win the series with datsyuk potentially leaving and zetterberg on a steady decline. That series in my opinion is the hardest to predict in the east. The rest are pretty simple for me. I have the islanders beating the kitties in 6.

The NHL has too many teams. Talent is very spread out, so we have "parity" where most teams are shit.
The wongs managed to have absurdly good goaltending when they weren't scoring, and then they did a decent job scoring when their goaltending was bad. I'm not sure how they did so well when Tatar and Nyquist were invisible most of the season, or how they continue to limp along with the worst defense in the league, but then again their competition in the east includes the laffs, buffalo, the hasb, and a team that perennially blows up at the finish line.
can we get a powerplay please ref?

>good prospects on the way
They don't have many and they have traded many away. What you do have is basically potential depth players.
Hartman = at best a bottom 6 forward
McNeil = 4th line center
Dahlstrom = at best a bottom pairing dman
Motte = potentially top 6 forward but manlet
Schmaltz = potential top 6 forward but so far his stats have been pumped by Boeser and Caggiula
Hawks are going to struggle unless they start bringing in prospects to fill holes in their top 6. Bowman has been basically selling off prospects to keep this team contending and it is going to bite him in the ass very soon. One of the core players should be traded this offseason to bring in some young talent. Maybe Seabrook or Hjalmarsson, or if they want to make a really big slash, Kane. I'm not sure if those players can even be moved because of NTC's and NMC's. They might just need to keep looking in FA to fix their shit up.
