I'd say their chances are pretty good.  As a Ducks fan I admit that Calgary is out playing Anaheim at every turn... if the Flames advance it's because they've played playoff style hockey at it's best... if Anaheim wins it will likely be the result of a lucky bounce.

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.

if san jose beats edmonton, then there will be a dog fight in the west between the ducks and the sharks.  i think the ducks might win.  buffalo is hot so whoever plays them in the finals better be hot too. their goalies get better every game.  i pick sharks or ducks to win.

YEAAAA they'll come back and take it all! Oilers suck and i think niedermayer is awesome! Go ducks and Joffrey Lupul and Ilya Bryzgalov need to save us!

I believe Edmonton is going to upset those overrated fat-cat red wings and I for one will rejoice! The Oilers are one of my unsung hero Canadian teams (hey, like, the game was invented there, eh?) and I hope they advance well into the playoffs. I will forever be in their debt if they can knock off the loathsome dead things from detroit and I believe they will do so. Go Edmonton!

Calgary has a recent history of slow starts and finishing well. IF you noticed, they have only played 2 divisional games so far this season, both against Edmonton, and there are 30 divisional games left. Those games are the 4-point swing games. They started out with a long road trip East, then some odd scheduling back home that had them play 2 games in 9 nights. Not an excuse, but a possible cause.\n\nKipper....yup, doesn't look like himseld until the last few games. He dominated last night versus the Stars. His GAA will be down where it typically is by mid season.\n\nAlso, the Flames scoring has improved over last season, but needs to improve. Give them time to figure out the lines and we'll see more.\n\nFinally, we aren't that bad. Look at the standings this morning, and they are only 4 points out of a playoff spot with a game in hand. They are only 5 points out of 2nd in the divison with 2 games in hand.  Wins on friday and saturday will bring them back to the .500 mark, similar position to last year.\n\nThere is nothing wrong with the Flames.\n\nGO FLAMES GO!!

Agreed about this being the greatest Stanley Cup Playoffs of all time (if not just because we've had to wait two long years for this).\n\nMy Buffalo Sabres will win Lord Stanley's Cup and make a great many long-suffering fans very happy!\n\nGO SABRES!!!

It is the Stanley Cup so anything can happen, but unfortunately for Oiler fans, time has already ran out. The Hurricanes are on a roll. Plus not only has Edmonton lost their starting goalie, that 3-goal lead they blew has sucked the life out of them. They have to play desperate hockey and I see no signs of that yet. So realistically I can't see them winning even another game. No chance whatsoever of winning Lord Stanley's coveted cup. Watch and learn!

well i gotta love them especially when they beat the avs in four games.  i only rooted for the avs to beat the overconfident stars.  i think they have a good chance of making the finals if they beat san jose.

They certainly could do it.  There are are at least 3 more games, maybe 6 more, and anything can happen in that time.  I think the Canes are very strong, but too much like the Flyers (I'm a Devils fan). Edmonton has the heart and the spirit to carry it off.  Pronger's penalty shot in the last time was amazing! The Oilers have a lot of spirit  and heart and they deserve to win the Cup. Tonight it could go either way.  I'd say the odds are 50/50.

Should both the Oilers and Flames advance Calgary will play Edmonton in the second round. \n\nTeams re-seed after each round and this scenario assumes that Colorado finishes off Dallas, making Calgary the highest remaining seed. \n\nShould Calgary not advance Edmonton would play the winner of the Sharks vs. Predators series as the winner of that series will be the highest remaining seed if Colorado beats Dallas. (at this point it looks as though the Sharks will finish that series off, Go Sharks!)
