Which team will win the Stanley Cup and who will they beat in the final round?

Phil Gretzky:

I’m thinking Tampa Bay beats Colorado to three peat.  Hard to bet against the TB machine

Sean Mallon:

I’ve liked the Carolina Hurricanes all season, but their goaltending concerns have me second guessing that prediction. The team I think has a shot at a Cup win is the New York Rangers. Young and skilled, the Rangers are only going to get better. They’ll surprise a couple opponents early on, and the other dynamos from out east are all going to beat each other up. Rangers over Avs in a six game series.

Lane Golden:

I’m not bullish on this, but I believe that everything is coming together at the right time for the Edmonton Oilers. I think they defeat the Panthers in a hard-fought Stanley Cup Final.

Devon Hladunewich:

I noted earlier I think that Colorado Avalanche will come out of the West. I think that the Florida Panthers will come out of the East. As for the Cup I think it will come back to the West with the Avalanche.

That is all of our break downs of the past regular season and a quick look at the playoffs ahead. It is now time to sit back and watch the Edmonton Oilers hopefully go on a nice deep playoff run.
