Tampa Bay, far and away the best team in the regular season, was up 3-0 on Columbus in Game 1. Columbus came back and won. The Blue Jackets then swept the Lightning right out of the playoffs.

Winnipeg had a 2-0 lead over St. Louis in Game 5 and then Blues scored three straight to win. They then eliminated the Jets in Game 6.

If you watched any of those games, you could just sense the team with the lead folding under the pressure of their opponents. The squad with the stronger will to win is prevailing.

It really is a toss up, IMO. I think Boston has good chance of representing the East and either San Jose or St. Louis comes out of the West. But who really knows?

But I would say the Sharks have momentum now, they could take it all. I also like Colorado's chances too, this is going to be a very interesting second round.
