My prediction: Colorado wins in 7, but upset potential is very likely given the untested nature of the Avalanche.The fun thing here will be to see Ryan Suter be a beast and play thirty minutes per night, and to see if Bryzgalov pulls anything insane.
They carry the two most expensive players in the NHL, and Matt Moulson, and crazy Mr Universe (Ilya Bryzgalov) as their goalie. The big thing here is that Patrick Roy coaches the team, so it'll be fun to see if he blows up or not. Nevertheless, they have incredibly good goal tending, and scoring, I guess. the average age on the team is literally eighteen. Maybe it's because of all the young guys they have. Minnesota Wild (4): How exactly did the Avalanche get to be the first seed? They went from the worst team that got the first draft pick to the little team that could. The Western Conference: The Better, Less Dramatic Conference (compared to the East's exploits) Aside from that rivalries are sure to bring the drama (I'm looking at you, Rangers-Flyers), the underdogs are sure to bring the upsets (Detroit, anyone?), and the Bell Centre is sure to bring the Olés. This year, it seems like any team has a chance to win the Cup, and the toss-up proves exciting for fans of any team (mostly Penguins fans: this is our year.
Playoff hockey is so intense: the pace is faster, the shots are harder, the goals are bigger, and the competition produces a level of hockey that is inherently better. The 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs start today, and for crazy hockey fans, they are better than any holiday. Although given the crazy weather, that could have been a possibility.
