My thoughts, although I didn't follow the league as a whole too much this year.

Bolts collapse: Level 5 Depression

Blue Jackets not getting in: Level 10 Depression.

This year sucks.

GEAUX BRUINS!!!!

Penguins in 5. Can't wait. This is the year.

LET'S. GO. DUCKS.

(Because let's face it ... every little kid in Orange County grows up with a frozen pond in his back yard.)

Evil Empire baby......Go Red Wings!!!!!

I don't really care who wins but I will find it interesting if the Kings can repeat considering their incredible run from an 8th seed last year.

I don't follow hockey but I really enjoy watching the NHL playoffs. The NBC sports Network does an excellent job with their broadcasts.

Not a Nashville Predators ticket holder? lol.

I do agree that NBC does a pretty good job with the playoffs. I really like the Hurricanes tv guys for FOXSC. I believe Forslund also does work for NBC come post season time.

So glad that Toronto finally got back to the playoffs. It is my luck that the one series with games on the NHL Network is that one and crappy AT&T Uverse doesn't offer the channel....

I think the Leafs have a chance vs Boston if the goaltending holds up. I am glad it is vs Boston or Montreal though. Original 6 and divisional rivals.

Let's go Caps!

The time is ripe for another Pens title ... :)

And the NHL is once again proving they have the most exciting playoffs of all the major sports in the U.S. although Baseball may would have something to say about that.

First night and there is already two OT games.

If I was at the point I could watch/get into more games that don't involve my home team I would watch more series. But yeah, usually, NHL series are 6-7 games.

"The March Of The Penguins" has begun!!!

Haven't watched a game yet.... to busy with NBA playoffs.

Man, are OTT and MTL having fun throwing punches and knocking out teeth...seriously physical game tonight.

They seem to be having some issues with the Islanders.
