The NHL is starting playoffs before the regular season is 100% done which might see a shift in order for round 2 or possibly a shift in team at the bottom of the standings as the Bruins could catch the Canucks. It looks like the Canucks have more players playing so they should be.

I don't know if this is the right place to put it, can we put prospects up in the lineup if we have space to do so?

This leaves The Stars with the Leafs, Sabres and Canucks to pick from.

I’m so happy that my first round is against another bottom team. I thought for sure I’d be picked earlier than this!

Per conversation with Hunter, Dallas would like to play against Boston/Vancouver.

That leaves (13) TOR vs (15) BUF, which is still a great matchup.
Best of luck to everyone!

You need to win the round but you also want to have good players to cannabalize to set you up for the next round. It depends your confidence in your team and how risk averse you may be. No confidence and risk averse, you take on a lower squad. More confidence and not worried about taking a risk, you take on a heavy hitter. And I have won the playoffs from a low position where I NEVER selected my opponent, they always selected me. It can be done.

I'm loving the Round 1 match up I was given. Tor, whoever comes out of our matchup could be in very good shape going into round 2. May the best team win...........unless that's you, then with all due respect, I hope the best man loses.

Still a game or possibly two left but most of the series seem over. Start posting (in the round 2 thread) or sending me your picks.
Round1.1 Sharks vs Coyotes Round1.2 Knights vs Flyers Round1.3 Oilers vs Blackhawks Round1.4 Wild vs Kings Round1.5 Ducks vs Caps Round1.6 Habs vs Blues Round1.7 Stars vs Canucks Round1.8 Leafs vs Sabres
Wild, Canucks, and Sabres are leading but with the potential of two games it’s still close.

Barring some major collapse by the Wild (with assistance by the Leafs) and an epic comeback by LA, who has been playing catch-up this whole series, my picks are:
The Winnipeg Quartet (Scheifele, Wheeler, Connor, Ehlers) R. Smith McAvoy

Haters tells me he takes Blues
That leaves Hugh for the decider.
I'll make the player swaps tomorrow and set the matchups.

Okay
Go big or go home, right?
Grabbing a Tiger by the tail
I may regret my decision. But I believe I already have a lead and have 6 players that have not yet played a game in round two, so going forward it.
