Lets start with the East.
Sens vs Habs:
Natural rivals, should be a great series for both clubs. The Habs and Sens each earned 2 wins during the regular season against each other. The Sens are a pleasant surprise to make it to the East Finals. The Habs on the other hand are the favored team. Pickard might be able to steal a couple of games here. Wellwood and Latendresse are going to up their game in this series and they will be the difference.
Habs in 6

Predators vs Canucks:
What a clash this is going to be. It should be the Cup Final. These 2 powerhouse teams are going to deliver a great series. The Canucks hold the edge during the regular season. Its time for Vancouver to go to the Finals. They are going to have to beat the best goalie in the league in McCollum but they will with the help of Bernier who is leading the scoring race with 18 points and a fantastic defensive corpse. With Irving playing the way he is, the Canucks will make it to the Cup Finals.

Finals
An all Canadian Final between the Habs and the Canucks. As much as I want my Habs to win a Cup, they will have to face the dangerous Canucks with a formidable defense and fantastic goaltending in Irving. The Habs run will come to and end. The Canucks will easily handle the Habs in 5.
