I would love to see the Los Angeles Kings win . . . but I don't think that is going to happen.\n\nRangers have a good team with Jager and Lundqvist in Goal . . . but so does the Thrashers with Kovalchuk and Savard.  Thing is the 'Canes have a better team than both . . . \n\nSo in the East . . . I will say the 'Canes.\n\nFor the West . . . that is a tougher picture . . . because all the teams have been really unimpressive to me . . . but from what I observed in games . . . the Red Wings . . . have better teamwork and cohesion.\n\nSo the West will be the Red Wings.\n\nAs for the Stanley Cup . . . I would say it will be close . . . six games . . . . 'Canes.\n\nThey better win . . . because I had money on them before the season started.  Also had money on the Kings too . . . but I know that won't pay off . . . lol

I'd love to say the Flyers, but down 2-0, that doesn't look to be the case.\n\nOut of the East- presently you have to look at the match-ups as follows:\n\nTop seed Ottawa losing a close one, not drilled Tampa Bay.  TB no longer with a top rated back stop can be counted out.\n\nWith a 2-0 lead, Montreal holds on against the higher rated Canes with solid goaltending.\n\nThe Devils OWN the series against the Devils\n\nThe Sabres will hold on against the Flyers with their speed.\n\nTherefore- 2nd round match-ups make for:\n\nOttawa versus the lowest remaining seed- Canadians\nand Sabres versus the Devils.\n\nMy pick would be Ottawa and the Devils, with the Devils playoff savvy and defense beating the Sens with a non-top ranked backstop (with Hasek maybe a different story).\n\nNow let's move to the West---\n\nDown 2-1, the Wings will come back against the Oilers.\n\n#2- Dallas looks to be on the outs against the Avs.\n\n#3 Calgary will take the victory up 2-1 against the Ducks\n\nand #5 Sharks will hold on against the Preds.\n\nThat leaves the 2nd round match-ups as...\n\nWings versus Avs- GREAT match-up!  Wings prevail.\n\nCalgary versus the Sharks.  Gotta go with Mikka and the Flames.\n\nThat means a Western Final of Detroit versus Calgary.  Mikka doesn't do it again this year and the Wings march on to get ROMPED by the Devils and Brodeur.\n\nI HATE the Devils!

as long as there is a strong team like Ottawa who has been really skateing well all season then yes I think its very possible that a canadian team may win the stanley cup this year

I believe that Detroit is going to wake up and win 6-2 before clinching the series in game 7.  If they aren't up 2 or 3-0 after the first period, then Edmonton will win 3-1.

i can tell you not too many teams can dig themselves out of a hole that big.  carolina will win.  it's over for edmonton.  they knocked off some great teams this season.  it won't be a total loss for them.

the wings for many reasons.  zetterberg and datsyuk will light up the lamp.  yzerman and fischer should be motivation enough to win the cup.  what i mean by that is it might be yzerman's last year and use the loss of fischer to play at their best.  GO WINGS!!!!  BRING IT!!!!  they will bring the cup to hockeytown.

sharks will be the western conference final champions.  the ducks will be roasted in the western conference finals by the sharks.  in the east it will be a dog fight between buffalo and the winner of the new jersey-carolina series. if the 'canes win i say it will be buffalo vs san kose for the cup.  if the devils win i say new jersey will have to pull out a few miracles to beat buffalo. either way it'll be buffalo and san jose to play for the stanley cup

The Canes will win the Stanley cup, no doubt about it! How many games you ask..........5. The Oilers cannot not defeat the canes in even one game this series, but the canes will give away one game to this goalie-less team!!!!!
