Well, I was 7 for 8 with my first round picks in the NHL playoffs. Let’s see how well I do in the second round:

• Buffalo over the Rangers
• Ottawa over New Jersey — have to say I’m not sure about this one. Ottawa won their first round series in 4, so they’ve been sitting and waiting for a week, while New Jersey had a hard-fought series against Tampa Bay, and might be riding some momentum. Maybe I should just predict that this series will go 6 or 7 and not actually pick a winner.
• Detroit over San Jose
• Anaheim over Vancouver
