We’re halfway through the playoffs and down to four teams competing to hoist the Stanley Cup. I think I can safely say not many of our playoff brackets turned out the way any of us expected, but that’s what has been so great about these playoffs. The onslaught of series upsets however, do reflect on the success rate of our predictions over the last two rounds. The admins and writing staff at Devils Army Blog have once again submitted their round three predictions, hoping the conference finals go a lot better for us than rounds one and two.
