Why is the OP excluding NYR, PHI, CLB,and WASH?
Am I missing something in the new format????
Because there is no possibility of being matched up against those teams.
Why?
Why?
For whatever reasons, Tampa scares me a little.
This, except I know the my reasons. Stamkos and Ben Bishop.

Matchup breakdown:
1. The division leader in each conference with the most points plays the wild card team with the fewest points. 2. The division leader with the second highest amount of points plays the wild card team with the most points
3 & 4 – the second and third seeds in each division face one another in the first round.
OP is correct.
Detroit is not highly unlikley to make it because they have 3 game at hand on the Leafs with only 5 points down.
I think the Habs will face Tampa though. Now I'm hoping they finish ahead of them so they can get that home ice advantage.

We won't play any Metropolitan division team in the 1st round unless we finish 1st or among the wild card teams.
We can forget the first position so the only Metropolitan division team we can play in the 1st round is Pitt.
Detroit should have been added to the poll though because they're still very well in the race IMO.
Why are people picking the bruins? 7 game series with home ice advantage the bruins beat us pretty easily. I'll take Pittsburgh. They have the worst goaltending. Leafs 2nd but would rather not play them because a loss to them would have me in kill mode.
