To be fair though, the same could be said about miller as it could be about bryzgalov. If bryz plays as good as he's done in the past 2 seasons, then expect phx to have an incredibly huge goaltending edge over sj. Also, if montreal actually manages to stop whining when price (their cruddy wanna-be hero goaltender) doesn't do well, then they could manage to win that series. Mind you, with all that's happened this year for boston, I expect them to possibly make the eastern finals. After reviewing the statistics, I've come to a pretty interesting conclusion: there is no way tampa can lose in the first round. Tampa's had amazing defence, incredibly consistant scoring, and is playing like they did when they won the cup years ago. Factor in them also being 13-5 against pittsburg in their last 18 meetings, and they undoubtably have an edge. First round re-predictions (due to playoff shifts and such): Van vs chi: van in 5 Sj vs lak: lak in 6 Det vs phx: phx in 5 Ana vs nsh: ana in 4 Phi vs buf: phi in 7 Bos vs mtl: bos in 6 Pit vs tbl: tbl in 5 Was vs nyr: was in 4
