Hello LBC community,
due to the NHL scheduling Game 1 of the Tampa Bay-New York series on the same night of the deciding game between Anaheim and Nashville, we will forego our usual roundtable style article to give everyone more time to get your picks in.
The league-imposed monkey wrench means you have to supply a total of five picks for this round, accounting for both a San Jose-Anaheim series and a San Jose-Nashville match-up. Gary Bettman sends his apologies for the confusion.
Donny's picks:
- Lightning over the Islanders in six
- Capitals over the Penguins in six
- Blues over the Stars in five
- Sharks over the Ducks in seven
- Sharks over the Predators in six
- Islanders over the Lightning in seven
- Capitals over the Penguins in six
