The first round of the NHL playoffs was exciting for so many reasons.

The Leafs and Capitals went to six games, something not many people thought would happen at the beginning of the series.  Nashville swept Chicago, which nobody thought was possible.

Plus, Edmonton and Ottawa both moved on to the second round and now have a better chance to end Canada's Cup drought.

With the second round officially slated to start to Wednesday, a friend of the site, Epoole88, released his matchup designs for all four series.

We can't wait for the second round of the playoffs to start,  and we hope the second round lives up to the hype, just like the first round did.
