The playoffs are upon us and we’ve got a whole new round of matchups to talk about! We had a couple of fun upsets (Montreal and Columbus, hello), and another team drop in the seeding after a poor round robin to follow up a stellar regular season (Boston, hello), and that’s left us with some interesting matchups for this first round, that’s for sure. And what do we make of them? Who’s going to do some damage and advance to the second round? Our staff weighs in.
