Damn, the LA Kings look good! And to think that they were the eighth seed in the West! I don't know what the odds are for the finals, but I would think the Kings have to be favored.

I always think it's the goaltending that wins...does Broduer have enough? The Kings looked so strong just steam rolling through to the finals. Kings win The Cup in 6.

At 38, I don't think Brodeur can handle it. Jonathan Quick has been incredible for the Kings. I believe his GAA in the playoffs in under two! I read that Simon Gagne might return for the Kings, from his concussion. I don't know how effective he'd be. Anyway, Kings in 5.

I still hate the Devils from the 1995 Cup when they beat my Red Wings playing that b.s. trap defense. Go Kings if not the Wings.

Yeah, I remember that defense. I hated it as well. I think the objective was to get 'odd-man' rushes. Wasn't Larry Robinson the Devils coach then?

I don't know about the coach, but they had Claude Lemieux and that guy will go down as a total douche bag in my book.

I love my American neighbors but the thought of another all USA Stanley Cup makes me not even want to watch the playoffs. Its been a long 19 years since Canada won the cup. :(

I remember when the Maple Leafs were one of the most revered teams in the league. Now, not so much. And poor Montreal....ouch.

Yeah, Claude Lemieux was not very well-liked. Same with Dale Hunter, the recently fired coach of the Capitals.

Looks like GringoTim called this one. Devils got their token win to prevent the sweep but too bad the Kings didn't do it at home.

I am just assuming they will win game 5.
