    All right! Playoff hockey is here! Here's my first round picks for the 2011 edition:

     

    Easten Conference QF's:

     

    NY Rangers over Washington in 7

     

    Simply put I feel that the Capitals aren't a playoff team. Also the Rangers were often underestimated this year.

     

    Philadelphia over Buffalo in 7

     

    A series between these two teams is always a treat, but the Flyers are the tougher squad.

     

    Boston over Montreal in 7

     

    Another classic matchup. Boston takes it on the strength of solid goaltending.

     

    Tampa Bay over Pittsburgh in 6

     

    I think that the absence of Crosby will hurt Pittsburgh this year.

     

    Western Conference QF's

     

    Vancouver over Chicago in 6

     

    I'll give the Canucks ONE series win, but it won't come easy against the Hawks.

     

    Los Angeles over San Jose in 6

     

    OK, who's gonna care about this matchup outside of California? San Jose will probably do yet another playoff collapse.

     

    Detroit over Phoenix in 5

     

    Why do the Coyotes bother? I mean they have had ZERO playoff success in their franchise history. Once again the Wings will dump them.

     

    Anahiem over Nashville in 5

     

    Another match that very few people outside of the fan bases will care about. The Predators are another team with zero playoff success. Nothing will change here.

    Some people thought Manny was overrated, but I've always thought he lived up to his hype. Too bad he's gotta go.

     

    Manny was a good ball player. I watched him play and he didn't look overrated to me. Hope he cleans himself up.

    What about your Pirates? So youre not gonna say theyre this good nether right?

     

    For the record retard I am NOT a Pirates fan. I follow the Blue Jays whenever I can. I happen to live in CANADA. Let me spell that out for you: C-A-N-A-D-A. Not U-S-A.

     

    And BTW I hope the O's suck hard.

    An overrated statement. Especially since the Rays have won the AL East 2 of the last 3 years while spending half what the Yankees and Red Sox spend.

     

    That will go back to normal soon. Yankees will buy the best players on the team and go back to winning :p
