Obviously I disagre with the Bruins at 10th seeing as how I picked them for 2nd! :D

I
don't really see how Carolina gets in either. Not with Buffalo - who is
a huge darkhorse IMO and Boston on the outside looking in.

I agree with the West, but then, I don't really care what happens out there.

To make your own assessment of the East (or West) go here:

west is too wide open IMO to make any prediction. everyone but St. louis and LA could make it
