San Jose vs either of pens/Tampa is going to be fun to watch. San Jose team is scary as hell. I didn't think jones could carry them to the cup finals but he's been good. Whoever plays them better stay out of the box. - dbell646
As a die hard Pens fan and if I'm being completely honest, I think SJ takes the cup regardless of who advanes. |

I don't. I think pens can win against them. but tampas injuries will be too much to handle if they meet san jose. which is why I want pens to win. not only for pens sake but for the stanley cup finals sake. I want a awesome final and I don't think bolts can give that atm. they will need stamkos and bishop. |

Man it must be awesome living in your teams' town. After for years of living the football lifestyle at ND, I really want nothing more but to be able to experience the scenes at Consol and Heinz on a whim whenever I want. Either have season tickets like I did at Notre Dame or just wake up one morning, say (frank) it, and shell out some money for next week's game on ticket master. If we win the Cup, I may legitimately just drive out to Pitt whatever weekend the parade is and take in the atmosphere. This is probably the last summer I can do something so wholeheartedly stupid and irresponsible like that. - Victoro311
I went to the 91 rally after we won. I was in 4th grade at the time and I still remember it vividly. My sons around that age so I'm praying he gets that experience as well. Didn't go to the steelers rally in 05 but I was at the bar when we won. Everyone in the neighborhood was out on the streets partying it was insanity. Nothing like those experiences. |

They're the one team that is as deep as we are down the middle. They're beatable. Not real sure how the styles match up but I'd love to see it. |

Can you spell "favorite" right? There isn't a "u" in it.

I hope you're right.
And agree that a star studid SCF would be better for all.
Not sure what SJ's D is like but I'd have to think goalies are equal, centers are equal, they probably have an edge with wingers, and no clue what their fouth line looks like but I'd put our up against anyones the way Cullen and Fehr and Kunhackle are playing. Our PP has got to get going too.
Comes down to D and depth... surprise surprise. |

American english usually use "favorite" while other places (especially uk) use favourite.
it is like armor (usa) and armour (other).
none of them are wrong so it is just a preference. |

Me too. I love watching Pens playoff hockey. If they're out, I don't watch.

Is on a one year then a RFA and then a UFA and will be looking for 6+ and term, its cap management given the young guns up from they'll need to sign and the 9+ they'll have to give to Ekblad.
May as well get something for him before their back is against the wall and everyones offering garbage knowing that they have to trade him. |

That's all true but like most of us around here have been saying all season, finding/trading for top a 4 defenseman is very hard. Most of the time they have to be drafted and developed. He's also still pretty young. |

Even the hottest team can cool off in a hurry. See: us this series.
You don't know how the matchup will shake out until you see the matchup happen on the ice. |

If that was as great as you act like it is we wouldn't have people coming to America from Canada because they dont want to wait so long to get treated. But whatever. "Free" is such a lie people tell themselves its so funny. |

Yeah that's why the Canucks gave up a good forward prospect AND 2 picks for him...He's a young top 4 defensemen. He's good. |

I don't know all that much about the guy, but I do know a lot about Jim Benning. Wouldn't be surprised if he made a really stupid deal to try to get his lower lotory team into "win now" mode. |
