CDSF: (2) Nashville Predators vs (3) Chicago Blackhawks

[-AJ-]

Preds in 7. Just a random guess. Both teams could take it.

[Master Mind]

Preds have struggled in the later part of the season, I don't see them beating Chicago even if they don't have Kane.

Hawks in 6.

[-DLC-]

I'm sort of sad that I don't despise Chicago anymore....I think they'll take it. The Preds used to be a bit scarier to me, but have lost some of their bite.

Hawks in six

Preds will hit hard. 4-2 They take it.

Hawks in 5

A healthy Rinne stopping pucks is a difference maker on the back end and that is the reason to go with the Preds in this series, is Kane going to be back for the 1st round, if so then the obvious choice is captain serious and the hawks

[Apples]

Hawks in 6

[Butters Stoch]

Preds have been on fire this season but the playoffs are a whole different game. Chi in 5

[250Integra]

I think Preds take this in 6.

Hawks without Kane will not have the edge.

[VegasCanuck]

Hard one to predict, I went with Nashville in 7. I think they have a little better depth right now.

[Jaimito]

Hawks. They don't need Kane to beat preds

[hockeyfan90]

This series all depends on Rinne. I'll say Preds will win in 6

[sabatoge95]

This one could go either way. I'm gonna say experience pays off and the Hawks take it in 7.

[Bure1994Mclean]

Nashville in 6, maybe 7. Their record speaks for itself this year, outstanding and among the best. Also tremendous depth on D, with Josi, Weber, Franson, Jones, Ellis, Volchenkov, oh and Rinne in net. Also, with traditional powerhouses like Boston and LA not even in the playoff picture this year, hopefully Chicago is next.

[skolozsy2]

Taking Hawks in 6. According to an article in the Daily Herald yesterday, Kane could be back as early as next week. He's taking full slapshots and one-timers, and feeling no discomfort, now its a matter of being cleared for contact. If the Hawks get Kane back, I think the Hawks have way too much offense for the Preds.

[CALGARY!]

Hawks should take this one in 5, they will be close games though

[shiznak]

Preds are on a terrible cold streak, loss 6 straight.

Blackhawks takes this in 5 or less.
