As usual, it should be interesting.  Here's my two cents worth - I only post
my predictions so I can brag if I'm correct.  Heck, I'm not even sure who is
playing whom but I have some favorites, so ...

LA may give Edmonton some trouble but Edmonton should pull through.  The
Oilers may have trouble with Calgary or Winninpeg the 2nd round, too.
Regardless, whoever makes it out of that quandary should have no problem
with any permutation, combination or derivative of the Stars, Blues, Hawks
or Wings.

Philly looks good.  I had hopes all along for Washington but Philly has
their number.  And if the NYI should get by the Caps, Philly will beat 
them to.  The other 4-some I know little about except that one of the
teams (Montreal or Buffalo, I think) gave Philly fits during the year.
Well, since I think the Flyers are the cat's meow right now, I have to
pick them to beat whoever they face.

Philly vs. Edmonton?  If the Oilers and Flyers make it to the Cup, I hope
Edmonton can give them a good series.  The Oilers have to be wondering
how to beat Philly since I don't think they did it all year - please
someone correct me if I'm wrong (one need not ask on the net!).  Philly
in 5 or 6.
