Anyone wanna make predictions on the 2 Cup Finals teams this year?
Ill pick Colorado out West vs. Toronto in the East.
If Patrick (COL) picks up a better goalie, he will be d**n near unstoppable! Without the injuries last year he would have gone far I think.
Toronto has a solid top 9 that rivals anyone in the league. If Kipper plays solid there is no reason this team shouldn't go deep in the playoffs.
Honorable Mentions out of the East are Buffalo and Carolina. Those 2 teams are just stacked top to bottom. Both teams made big deals in the offseason and were "Keeping up with the Joneses" during the offseason.
Honorable Mentions out of the West are St. Louis hoping to go Back-To-Back and Los Angeles. Tony proved that making smart decisions and playing "Money Puck" really do work. He shed salary and made future decisions and still came away with the Cup as an Interim GM. Los Angeles has an absolute beastly Defense and Goalie situation brewing. With Edler, Shattenkirk and Yandle firing pucks at the opposition, their top notch goalie will be sitting back in his crease having a beer most nights.
Lets hear what you guys think about the Cup Contenders!

since I have officially come here in July-August as an AGM... looking at teams I would pick St Louis to repeat in the West, and Buffalo in the East!
I could say the Coyotes to get brownie points?

Thanks for the props... but my youngsters don't need the added pressure... I like the chances of your Eastern honorable mentions every bit as much as the Leafs... out West... I don't think you can overlook the Wild...

I'm humbled by your prediction, Josh. I just hope my players aren't reading this!
My picks are LA in the West and Buffalo in the East.
I'm tempted to pick Anaheim but Mark doesn't seem to have much luck in round one. With his luck, it'll go 7 too!

Lol...Thanks for the words anyway, Kinger.......I'm an easy one to leave out of the mix because of the Kovalev Kurse. Of course, I don't have Kovalev anymore....hmmm...
