the buffalo sabres because they have speed and have shown that they can also use strength against the fliers.

I'd like Seattle or Carolina to win it just because they haven't won it before. \n\nBut Pittsburgh has looked real good lately. They'll probably be the favorite to win it all.

The Russians (w/Malkin and Ovechkin) look very strong, but I think the Canadians are still a better team.\n\nSo...Canada would be my pick.

Edmonton 4...Carolina 2\n\n***UPDATE: Well folks, I'm watching the game and the OIlers aren't skating, they aren't hitting, they aren't moving the puck well, they aren't doing anything to give themselves a chance to win. You can't blame their goaltending either. So I'm going to revise my prediction:\n\nCarolina 3 Edmonton 1

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!

The Calgary Flames IF we can start being consistent and stop relying on our superior goaltender Kiprusoff. \nGO FLAMES GO!

Anaheim Ducks will add the key players to make that final step to winning a Stanley Cup...Brian Burke has made all the right moves for Anaheim and he will bring them a Stanley Cup in 2007!!!  Go Ducks!!!\n\n                                          Jason

I cannot answer due to the fact that last November I was discussing hockey with another ex-pat friend who also doesn't get a chance to watch much and I said "No, really, Carolina is good this year.  Like, will probably win the Stanley Cup good"  And then they did, and so I blame Edmonton losing game 7 on the fact that I said Carolina would win the Stanley Cup 6 months prior.

i see a dogfight between these two.  whoever's goalie is hotter will win the series.  the ducks are my pick in seven.  they are as fast as edmonton and have a good goalie.

The Detroit Red wings!! they have the talent and experience and the talent like Zetterberg, Datsyuk (who may be back in Game 2), Legace, Schneider, i could name the whole roster! I think that this year, Detroit is going to be the home of the Larry O'Brien trophy, the Stanley Cup and the World Series!! Just watch Game 1 against the Oilers today and you will see what I mean! Detroit is the answer to any "who is going to win?" question in major sports....except football.

Sharks. They're winning and without much help from Thorton or Cheechoo. Marleau is a beast in the playoffs.
