Tonight we are traveling back from vacation so I am in a bit of family mode, however here is the absolute latest with "Who do the current match ups favor?" In these series the winner is determined by who won the season series. Usually we see all sorts of upsets and we get a very surprising Cup Final...However...

Starting in the East..

Opening Round

1 Rangers Over 8 Caps (season series currently at 2-1 for the NYR)
2 Bruins over 7 Senators (season series currently at 4-1 for the Bruins)
3 Panthers over 6 Devils (season series 2-1-1 for Panthers)
5 Flyers over 4 Penguins (season series currently at 4-1 for the Flyers)

1 Rangers over 5 Flyers (season series 6-0 for the NYR)
3 Panthers over 2 Bruins (season series 2-1-1 for the Panthers)

1 Rangers over 3 Panthers (season series currently at 3-1 for the Rangers)


In the West

1. Canucks over 8 Sharks (season series 3-0-1 for the Canucks)
2. Blues over 7 Coyotes (season series 2-1-1 for the Blues)
3. Kings over 6 Blackhawks (season series 3-1 for the Kings)
5. Detroit over Predators (season series tied 3-3 Redwings GF 16-14

1 Canucks over 5 Red Wings (season series 3-1 for the Canucks)
3. Kings over 2 Blues (season series 3-1 for the Kings)

1. Canucks over 3 Kings (season series 2-1-1 for the Canucks)
