Ok now that the next round series are set... here the matchups and the history...

Eastern Conference

#6 Philadelphia Flyers @ #1 Montreal Canadiens

Philadelphia and Montreal havent met since 1989 in the Wales Conference Finals ... so can the Habs roll on and push the pesky Flyers out of the way to the Eastern Conference Finals or will Philly do a box up?

1973 Mtl 4 @ Phil 1 Semifinals
1976 Mtl 4 @ Phil 0 Stanley Cup Finals
1987 Phil 4 @ Mtl 2 Wales Conference Finals
1989 Mtl 4 @ Phil 2 Wales Conference Finals

#5 New York Rangers @ #2 Pittsburgh Penguins

the high flying Penguins and the pesty Rangers will meet for the first time since 1996 but questions will be said abuot how would the Penguins handle that goddamn rotten punk Sean Avery??? He will do anything to piss anyone, maybe Sidney Crosby?? It's possible it could turn ugly!!!!!

1989 Pitt 4 @ NYR 0 Patrick Division Semifinals
1992 Pitt 4 @ NYR 2 Patrick Division Final
1996 Pitt 4 @ NYR 1 Eastern Conference Semifinals

Western Conference

#6 Colorado Avalanche @ #1 Detroit Red Wings

Are the Avalanche on the way to do some rumblings or will the powerful Red Wings swat them aside?? Wonder what Colorado will do to contain Detroit's scoring players?

1996 Col 4 @ Det 2 Western Conference Finals
1997 Det 4 @ Col 2 Western Conference Finals
1999 Col 4 @ Det 2 Western Conference Semifinals
2000 Col 4 @ Det 1 Western Conference Semifinals
2002 Det 4 @ Col 2 Western Conference Finals

#5 Dallas Stars @ #2 San Jose Sharks

Does the Stars have it to toss out another top team or will the Sharks bite their way to the Stanley Cup Finals?
