[Drew]

2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs - Conference Championship

Eastern Conference
 
#8 Pittsburgh Penguins                               
#6 New York Rangers


Western Conference

#4 Vancouver Canucks                         
#2 Minnesota Wild

Wow Pittsburgh, again as well as the NYR (who I know doesn't updated their line-up no Dubinsky is a sign), hopefully PIT can pull it off as he is more deserving

Western conference match-up is the battle of the TITANS hopefully Hiller can get quickly back into form and get me a bunch of wins this week.

Yup, too bad you and I are in the same division and conference Drew, I think our matchup is of Stanley Cup proportions, no offense to the Penguins and Rangers.

My Canucks only have 3 games this week, so I think its your match to lose.   oh how I wish Poulin wasn't a nancy and injured himself for the year during warmups.

My Pens are on a roll, forgot to check my lineup yesterday, but all of the best players are in as of Thursday.  A conference championship would be a hell of a turn around for my squad.  Keep in mind that the Pens were top dog in the East early on, but fell victim to injuries, but a couple FA moves later, my team has rebounded!

Ya I think ours is for the cup, no offense to the other teams, but I think our match-up will come down to goaltending depending on if yours can steal the series or not and whether mine can get in enough games. Too much power in the west.

Good luck to you guys. I think vancouver has it in the west, they are just such a stacked team.. lol I just just couldn't buy a win last week with my goalies. My severe lack of LW depth cam back to haunt me finally too. I hope i can fix those issues in the offseason.

Have you even looked at my team? I think if Luongo can get under 20 shots every night like tonight I will be fine.

My team is a major underdog series is similar to Stanley Cup between the Flyers and Hawks last year.

I'm coming for ya! 
I will be the Blackhawks in that series, let's go Hiller!

[Drew]

Going into Thursday night, Minnesota up by ~10pts. Hopefully Hiller gets 1 start in the last 2 games to cover for the 2 wins Fleury may get.

Go Wild
