Who do you pick to win the Stanley Cup?
As the hockey playoffs are under way, it is time for the common question of, "Who do you think is taking home the Cup?"
I am a Flyers fan so I would love to see them take it home. If they can get past Toronto I think they have a good chance, but getting past Toronto will be the tough part. Who do you think will take home the Cup this year, and why? |

Obviously being from Colorado I want to see the Avalanche win, and I think they have an excellent chance. Around the all star game there was concern that they wouldn't make the playoffs but they finished very strong and came back to win a ninth straight division title. They are playing very well now and it will be tough for anyone to beat them.

I have to say the Toronto Maple Leafs since I reside there myself.
It would mean a whole lot more for the fans of the Maple Leafs since we haven't had one Stanley Cup championship in over 35 years. As Leafs fans, we are fanatic about our team and very passionate about the game of hockey itself. Go Leafs Go! 2003 Stanley Cup Champion - Toronto Maple Leafs (I hope) |

Devils - you have to have a solid goalie. Broudour is a rock!

I want the Canucks to win...but I think the Cup will stay in the West either way...prolly Colorado.
In the East..Ottawa and NJ will battle for East champs. I want to see the Leafs do well, but they are getting their ass handed to them this afternoon...its probably over for them too

I really don't know about the Ottawa Senators. I am a fan of them, but watching them play, I see the talent, but not the desire. They were very sloppy in the first round, and fell asleep at the wheel a few times, even after the first game.
And what the Hell was up with the Ottawa crowd in their last game with the Islanders. Were they gassed before the game? Final game in the series, Sens about to advance, and with the exception of the last minute of gameplay, they just weren't there. I've seen more life in a morgue.

I'm a Leaf's fan, but I must *cough* tip my favour to the *cough* to the Senators.
I don't think Toronto will advance past Philly, so Ottawa won't have to worry about hitting the Blue wall of playoff defeat again. (Boy, was that ever tough to admit)

ottawa fans, i being one, were gassed cause first round means nothing.
getting pasted the second round has always proved to be a problem. I think playing philly this year (i don't see toronto winning) it'll be tough, since last years major ass kicking. If you don't know what i'm talking about it was the shut-out after shut-out after shut-out 4-1 series ass kicking. (only two goals allowed the entire series) |

Colorado Avalanche. From their 9th straight division title straight to the Stanley Cup.

As for the Flyers, I remember what happened with them last year. I think Ottawa's in a catch 22 right now. They play Toronto, and the Leafs will find some way of obliterating the Senators. If it's the Flyers, they will definitely be looking for some payback from last year.

I think its going to be the Leafs and the Stars in the Finals. I like the Sens because of the low payroll. It shows the other teams in the league you don't have to spend to win.....but I think the Leafs will eventually roll over them. I don't see anyone in the west stronger than Dallas as long as Turco holds up!

2-0 Flyers, as we speak. Looks like they're gonna get their chances against the Sens again this year. *taps wood* Excellent.
