I'm going to start a mailbag-type thing once a week as part of my ramblings. Check the forums here on Dobber Hockey where I will start a thread for posters/readers to ask me anything fantasy hockey-related (or really, just hockey in general). It could be keeper questions, trade questions, playoff discussion, whatever is on the mind of the readers, really. I'll open up the thread around noon on Thursdays (Eastern time), and check the posts a few times throughout the day on Thursday and Friday to answer the questions I can (some are pure speculation – I have no idea what Jack Eichel's Year 1 value might be).

The Anaheim Ducks became the first team to punch their ticket to the second round of the playoffs, sweeping the Winnipeg Jets after taking Game 4 by a score of 5-2. While the Jets did a better job being disciplined – they only gave the Ducks one power play after giving them 10 through the first three games – but couldn't get the saves needed to win. The Jets needed to do three things to win games in this series: Keep the Getzlaf line in check (Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry had just four points in three games after a big Game 1); be disciplined (they were ok); have Ondrej Pavelec be close to average. Pavelec finishes the playoffs with an .891 save percentage overall.

The Ducks now get the winner of the Calgary-Vancouver series.
