Carolina plays a better system and has a better goalie. Pittsburgh has Crosby and Malkin, who can single-handedly take over games. If the Canes can keep the superstars in check they win. No easy task, but Carolina is a very disciplined team that is capable of doing it.
Amazing that both of the Eastern Conference teams were on the outside looking in not that long ago. Both have made amazing runs late in the season.

Pittsburgh and Detroit for a rematch in the Stanley Cup Finals. I am looking forward to that!

^If that happens Detroit wins again.
Quite frankly, I don't see anyone beating Detroit at this point, unless Osgood poops his pants.

Erick, I to say it, but Detroit is looking very stout. That is why I wanted the Ducks to win so badly. Detroit has to be liking their chances for a repeat.

If Detroit had a better goalie I'd say they'd win the Cup hands down, but Osgood gives other teams a chance. Albeit a slim chance, he's the chink in the armor.

Yeah, I picked Carolina/Detroit but I'm rooting for the Pens and Hawks. ...casually, of course. For none of these teams are my beloved Sabres. GO SABRES!!! (Sabres Nation takes over D.C.)

LOL, you wish... (zoomed out shot shows must as many Sabres fans in 117) Also check out this guy's pics: www.flickr.com/photos/senrab/sets/72157602305083084/Sabres Nation filling up the Verizon Center. Don't despair though...we do it everywhere. (this one is from the RBC Center in Raleigh) ;-)

Can Chicago make it a series? The Dome red or Blue looks great.....I bet the Sabres dome was quiet during round 2 in the play-offs. Sorry Erick I couldn't resist that set-up.
