In his Puck Daddy blog this morning, Greg Wyshynski blogs about eight guys who need to step up in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs since they failed to do so in the first round.
With that in mind, which eight players need to continue rolling in order to help their team advance to the conference finals?
Let’s hear your thoughts!

I think Michael Ryder needs to keep rolling. He played extremely well against his former team and I hope it has nothing to getting vengeance on the Habs. If he continues to put the puck in the net, he could be a huge force in the series.
Also, I think Malkin needs to keep it up. If he fall apart (or Crosby for that matter) in this series, the Penguins are gone. Of course, I would love that to happen but I’m just calling them as I see them.

Well, let’s see how “hot” these boys are facing a competent defensive corp and having to deal with two lines that can not only check them defensvely but can pressure them offensively.
It always amuses me when writers wonder how the Wings can shut down someone else’s top line. The real question is, how is the other team’s top line going to shut down both of the Wings’ top lines.
As for Draper needing to step up, the Wings will be just fine without Kris if he’s not healthy. The person who needs to step up his game in the second round, at least offensively, is Pavel. He did a great job defensively against the BJs but the Wings will need more than 2 points from him in the first four games against the Duckies. Odds are he’ll do exactly that.
