What series are you most excited for (not involving your own team)?

[PenguinSpeed]

I think the people expecting Pittsburgh Philadelphia to be a chaotic bloodbath are going to be disappointed. A lot of the characters that made it such a volatile series are gone. Bylsma, Fleury, Neal, Kunitz, Orpik, Asham, Adams, Laviolette, Hartnell, Schenn, Bryzgalov, Jagr, etc are all gone. It'll be tame in comparison.

-Ah, what? It was 3 years ago there was 4 complete team fights in a single period between these teams. The Philly fighting boxing bell was dam near broken by games end. Expect a war.

I think I'm more excited to read the team forums from Bos-Tor. If it's a one sided series those threads are going to be absolute comedy gold.

Notice who's not behind the bench, Sullivan. Pens are a disciplined machine under Sullivan and don't get into that stuff any more.

 

[BlueDream]

Boston/Toronto and Vegas/LA have my interest the most.

-Well you know as much as me Philly wants to muck up the series. And Malkin and Letang get sucked into it more times then not when temperatures boil. Should Philly steal a game in Pittsburgh, its going to get nasty in Philly

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Nobody cares about the battle of California apparently.

 

[Rich Nixon]

Finally, the Schenn brothers can get their revenge on Scuderi and Sill.

 

[liljegren beast]

Ducks sharks should be an absolute blood bath, 2 physical teams that can score, should be crazy!

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Pens vs Philly.

That's a good rivalry and should lead to a fantastic series especially if it goes to a game 6/7.

 

[ItalianCanuck1]

For me it's a no brainer.
Vegas - LA.

As a Kings fan who hates both teams, this is the one I voted for. It’ll be a far better series than Pens/Flyers.

They'll care when it's featured in the San Jose Sharks 2018 Stanley Cup Champions DVD.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Pitt philly is always fun and toronto vs boston should be good

 

[MR4]

Lol. Only 1 vote for WSH-CLB and it was a CLB fan breaking the tread rules

NSH-COL should be fun, and curious to see how Laine performs in the post season

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

I'd love to see the old PIT-PHI rivalry.

 

[Chuck Norris Trophy]

Boston - Toronto hands down. Jets - Wild is another one.

 

[Brock Radunske]

Can't wait for Marchand to rabbit punch Matthews in the face!

well, if that's the case, I hope Martin realized that one game with purpose and some self-sacrifice is more useful than him being around for the whole playoffs.

 

[93gilmour93]

After the leafs series to me hands down the Pittsburgh/Philadelphia series will be awesome. Let the bloodbath begin....

 

[93gilmour93]

Can't wait for Marchand to rabbit punch Matthews in the face!

That would be great because Marchand is stupid enough to do stuff like that putting the Leafs on the PP which could be the difference in the series

Uh Steve Downie also played for the Pens. No Scott Hartnell for Philly, which cuts down on a ton of the riff raff

 

[Yarbles02]

I am traveling abroad and it absolutely kills me that I will be missing the pens/flyers series

 

[stevo61]

coin flip between Toronto/Boston and Philly/Pittsburgh

 

[DEVILS130]

I get excited for all series, but I will definitely prioritize Flyers-Pens. I have friends on both sides so it's always fun watching the back and forth as a neutral fan

 

[PittsburghPens8771]

I can't remember the last time I was this excited for the playoffs. I'm looking forward to watching every series outside of Nashville / Colorado.

I mean, there's just some awesome matchups.

 

[Timeless Winter]

Winnipeg vs Minnesota
