LOL. I think the Canucks are going to go down a path of destruction this year. Squeak in around 7th place. The Oilers are taking over the crown of the best Canadian team in the west.

I wish.

Sadly the Canucks are far from falling apart... Solid d-core, depth, strong wingers, elite power-play... they will remain the best Western-Canadian team IMO.


Don't get me wrong, I'd love the Oilers to break out, but RNH and Sam out to start the year, Hall still a reckless mofo, and simply not enough d-focus from their defenders means they will still lose games where they out-skill and out-play their opponents.

FYI - Joe Colborne to the oilers is in the works

A little difficult as it's not really an East/West final anymore because of the final four re-seeding.

So final four:

Rangers
Red Wings
Sharks
Blues

Red Wings v. Sharks
Blues v. Rangers

Red Wings v. Blues

Red Wings - winner winner chicken dinner

Dafuq does that have to do with finals

lol I like how Tony ever so modestly slots in his team to be final four but knows enough to keep it there fair and square and not even dream about them making it into the finals.

*INC* "unlike some certain hockey franchise fans in here"

East:
Pens vs Carolina


West:
Ducks vs Blues


finals:
Blues vs Carolina

Man if the Leafs stay healthy, I think we make the conference finals. Our forward group is stacked. I think we could land a #4 d-man via trade.

Just being reslistic. Contract years on aging Thornton, Marleau and Boyle ... I'm hoping they get at least this far.

wish we could ditch off liles on someone

should have used a normal buy-out on Komi and an amesnty one on liles.

Or

used both buy outs on Liles + Komi and not bought out grabo and not traded for bolland

those would have been the better options IMO.

East: Leafs vs Blue Jackets

West: Blackhawks vs Blues

Final: Blue Jackets vs Blackhawks

Winner: Blue Jackets
