Eastern Conference

Bruins Robbie Ftorek is going to miss Bill Guerin. But they should have enough firepower with my favorite player, Joe Thornton.

Canadiens They've got Jose Theodore and have a great leader in Saku Koivu, who won a battle with the big C.

Capitals Jaromir Jagr better pick it up and earn his pay. They got his buddy from Pittsburgh, Robert Lang. Maybe he was just lonely.

Devils They were out in the first round last year; I guarantee it won't happen again with Pat Burns.

Flyers Ken Hitchcock is a defense guy, and that's how you win in the playoffs. They will be a tough team to play against under him; believe it.

Hurricanes They are big and tough but turn the other cheek. Paul Maurice has this team making noise.
