What team will win the stanley cup?

[Forever_Habs10]

With the season winding down.....and the playoffs about to get underway.....who's your favorite for the cup....what team is built all around to go the distance,and capture Lord Stanley?

I like Pittsburgh's chances.

[Nine1One]

Predators.

[Sashaband]

i voted pittsburgh, but nashville was my next choice.

If luongo can play like he's playing, they stand a good chance. The team is having trouble scoring yet they still find ways to win. That's dangerous, cause if they break out of their scoring slump, and they will, and Luongo keeps his thing going, who will be able to stop them?

Damm...thanks man.

Can a Mod please edit the word Stanley for me in the heading.....thanks.

[THEBIGGESTHABSFAN123]

I picked the Penguins. Wings and Blues are my next choices though. And you forgot to put the blues.

Sure.

That's what the box "other" was for.

Sure.

Predators.

This. Strong goaltending, great defense, and the addition of Radulov will hopefully boost their scoring. They have all the ingredients and a ton of ex-Habs on their roster, I'll definitely be rooting for them.

[Forever_Habs10]

This time around...I also believe the nucks have the 1-2 punch in goal.

[thethrillisgone]

I'm going with the Blues followed by the Penguins. Nashville as a sleeper pick...

[THEBIGGESTHABSFAN123]

I believe the Preds have a good chance. But I don't want them past the 1st round, we have their 2nd rounder.

[Forever_Habs10]

How about those Rangers

[FirstStar]

I was leaning towards the preds, now that they've re-acquired Radulov, I think they have quite the team.

They have a great tender (reason they wen't so far last season) in Rinne, great defenders in Suter and Weber and a great shut down guy in Gill (who we all know elevates his games in the post season), up front they have fisher, erat, Legwand and the 2 kos brothers. All players under or around the 20 goal mark... There isn't one star that stands out... who do you give extra coverage to?

In the east, you have the pens (if Fleury is hot), the b's and the surprising cats. Maybe the rangers as well, Lunqvist gets hot and their forwards start scoring, could be quite a force.

Still, my money is on the preds. Blues could surprise is Halak finds his playoff form. Detroit, not banking on them, rough season with injuries. Nucks, well, it all comes down to lou... it always does.

Blues for sleeper team.

I agree,Detroit not as threatening IMO as most think.

and nucks have 2 #1 goalies

This could really help them this year but it has to be this year. They won't/can't keep both of them next season. They have other goalie prospects waiting.

They'll probably trade one of them to the Leafs for an arm and two legs. Leafs will sign the guy to some huge Giguerre type contract and the guy will quickly go in the dumpster. Only in T.O.

Probably Lou then.

Anyways as long as it's not Philly, Pittsburgh or a repeat of last year.

[Forever_Habs10]

Probably Lou then.

If anyone of the two is let go from Vancouver...it'd be him.......he'll be walking a thin line this time around in playoffs.

Actually it will probably be the other way around. Lou has a huge contract & Cory will be a RFA wanting big coin because he's making under a mil now. I could be wrong though, stranger things have happened.

I'd rather see that than Chara, Laps or Higgins.

Only in the Maritimes could that happen.

FH, you asked for favorites,,,,,that could mean 1 of 2 things. It could mean "who would you like to win the Cup",,or it could mean "who do you think will win the Cup". Right now I would have to think that the Rags will win the Cup, but who would I like to win the Cup,,,St. Louis would be my choice. I picked "other" because St. Louis was not on the list.
