Which team will win the Stanley Cup? Why will they win?

Ottawa.  They have the best offence and the best defence.  Scored the most goals and had the biggest differential of goals for vs. goals against = +103.\n\nDetroit may have ended the season with more points but they are in the weakest division in the NHL and got to play Columbus, Chicago, and St. Louis 8 times each.  They are old and it will show as the playoffs continue.

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.

Probably Detroit.\nBut there's always hope for the Avs...

If you look at the standings, the best teams right now are Detroit, Carolina, Dallas, Ottowa and the NY rangers. Having watched alot of NHL games, I tend to lean toward the Red Wings as being the best to this point. They are playing as good as they have in recent years and have made an effort to enfuse their younger players early in the year which will make them stronger during a Cup run.

I would love to see the Oilers win the Stanley Cup, It's been too long since the cup's been back in Canada.

The Oilers for sure, they are not an 8th place team. They have just as good a chance as any, especially if they knock off Detroit. Then everyone will jump on the bandwagon.

unbelievable! The devils are down 2-0 for a reason. The hurricanes will win the east. They have a complete offense and good chemistry. staal, williams, stillman, weight,  they got their share of stars and cam ward has put this team back where they should be. they will not only win the east, they will win the stanley cup.

regardless of who they face, the buffalo sabres will most likely prevail in the stanley cup...with their young talent both on offense and defense, the team is on a roll, running through the competition.  sabres are the best bet for now and maybe for the next couple of years.

The Atlanta Thrashers will win the Stanley Cup?

Highly doubtful.\nThey have a pretty good core of guys, and if the defense (and Hasek!) stays healthy, they should have a decent year.\nAny team can win on any given day in the NHL, but there are quite a few teams with more talent in the league.  \nI'd love to see them hold up the cup again, but I doubt it will happen soon....:(

The Sabres shall win the series AND the Stanley Cup!!:)\n\n\nGO SABRES!!!

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.

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

my woman said they are first in the atlantic division with 98 points.  do i think they are cup-worthy? nope.  i want detroit to win.  ottawa is the best in east.

To have a shot, they'll have to get into 6th spot. As the standings are currently, they'll have to face Carolina, or Ottawa.\nAt least in sixth position, you will face either the Rangers or Flyers. Two teams I believe they have a better chance against.
